Does anyone remember League 1 Derby County? (STILL the worst team in history!)

That's the worst thing about this sorry mess the EFL have created themselves; all this bending over backwards for 1 financially and morally bankrupt club is causing problems for 71 other clubs.

It's time the EFL grew a spine and set a final deadline for them to get this sorted. Give them until 1st July (next Friday) to sort it out; if there are any potential bidders serious about buying Derby, they'll have put a credible offer forward by then, if there aren't then the EFL can withdraw the golden share and put an end to this sorry saga.
FFS: they are NOT deadlines!!!! 🥳

Looking at the fixtures to September, you can see them being in the relegation dog fight at that stage even without the -15pts.
As well as the difficult opening three games, they also have Peterborough, Plymouth and Wycombe early doors too.

Assuming that their squad will be in a similar shape to what Bolton's was a few seasons ago, they could be on the end of some proper batterings in the first couple of months.

Man City u21's, yet another full house guaranteed. Derby are going to be minted by Christmas.

I'm trying not to be snobby about being Premier league and that but have you seen Derbys glamour New Years day fixture?

Surprised they’ve been given Bolton away when we’re playing Man Utd away. Could be some issue around trains

Does anyone go by Train on New Years Day? It's usually the worst or non-existent service, IIRC.

They'd better get the ground upgraded to a 60,000 capacity to cope with demand for this.

They can gel during the season. Might be a slow start but we'll improve. This is League one remember. We're playing the likes of Accrington Stanley. Who are they?
 
Well they have a striker who hates Derby. Hope Colby tears them apart

Oh.

They really don’t realise what is coming to them, do they?

Didn’t Leigh Curtis used to be at the Evening Post?

Has he been relegated, along with Derby?
He did and from memory I thought he covered Notts, sure I remember Todger Hardy and him falling out over something!

I'm not sure if there has been cutbacks on Derby coverage because they are league one but is he covering Hull too?

Glad Maguire brought up the HMRC issue on the POF podcast today because there never seems to be much discussion about it (in the media).

Notcher (or anyone else who is clued up about these things), what is the likelihood - in the event of Ashley or Appleby getting something through - of HMRC bending and accepting a much lower percentage of what they (we, the taxpayer!) are owed or being a final, immovable object that fucks the whole thing?

I see that Derby arrogance is rearing its ugly head again. If they do survive into next season, they are in for one hell of a nasty shock.

Poor old Daws. What's he doing that draw for?

He played the top level for the most of his career and was an England international. He should be covering the Premier League, not this tin pot rubbish.

Clinton Morrison is in the right place though.

League One is a lot harder than they obviously realise.

There's a reason teams like Leeds, Sunderland, Ipswich et al (and of course us) went down and struggled for a few seasons.
