    Mel Morris selling Derby’s ground to himself to get around FFP explains some of replies when they announced Bielik, I hadn’t realised what had happened.

    Bielik is an investment. He’ll be sold next summer for a profit.
    Oh they will be selling alright. Fire sale, unless they are promoted.
    In 2016-17, Derby had a £23.3M operating loss, and offset that by selling off £16M in players. Their actual loss was £7.1M. But in 2017-18 they had a £29M operational loss and an actual loss of £25M. But they did a financial shenanigan where they sold the ground to themselves as another company and are claiming that they did so at a £40M profit. So magically..... they were profitable last year! Total bullshit. They are running on fumes, breaching FFP Rules to gain an advantage, and the FA should be punishing them for such crap.
    Excluding their magical sale of the ground to themselves, and estimating their loss for last season, their 3-year loss is approaching £60-70M, when they are not suppose to exceed £39M. But here they are, splashing out more cash and hoping to get promoted before fines and bans and point deductions can be imposed.
    It's one thing to get outspent by bigger clubs who generate more revenue. Its another to be cheated. I doubt they get promoted this season. I hope they go into Administration when the music stops. They and their moaning fans will get no pity from me. Screw em.
    Uh oh. Napa’s got his abacus out again.

    Just think you could have a Network of clubs and move players through it negating FFP - do you think anyone has thought of that?

    If I get a valley pass at what point does a replay of the game become available ? Because a live game for me is at the witching hour but if I could watch it three four  hours later that would be perfect.

    The fact Derby can get away with that shows the EFL literally have no code of ethics, which is kind of what we knew anyway, wankers.

    They don't upload the whole game, just highlights which are roughly 10 minutes long
  • Any rumours or is it just all FFP??

    Maybe not the smartest move to name the player at whose house you fitted an alarm and who told you about their current feelings on a fans forum where everyone can read it.

    You might want to delete it or get @admin to.

    Oztumer playing today and been paid. I assume he is not a fee anyway and we would have to pay a fee. With our budget. No chance  we can't afford 1p. Tragic

    What about Bielik?
    Have day off
    Why? Getting names wrong is disrespectful.

    Any revealing post-match comments?
  • Bowyer still saying we have to sign 4 or 5. I’ll take that as a good sign just because if he didn’t think we’d get 4 or 5 then perhaps he’d have said 2 or 3.

    Window closes Thursday for loans and perms so he better hurry up!

    Just dont' think it's going to happen. Think we will sign 3 - 2 midfielders and a striker. Just hope Bowyer doesn't let Morgan go out on loan until we do indeed have 5 in. We made that mistake in January losing Clarke and Ajose on top of Grant without having a replacement. We need bodies and Morgan is a decent prospect anyway.

    Not sure Ajose and Clarke would have featured much  
  • Bowyer: “I’ll obviously be on the phone for the next four and a half hours on the drive back speaking to (Head of Recruitment) Steve Gallen and then we’ll have to just see what is around the corner. We’ve still got to bring in four or five more players, we’re going to get stronger as well. We’re working constantly and hopefully we’ll get them through the door."

    Looking online it's fair to say he's not exactly Mr Popular with Bolton fans over this decision.

    I hope for his sake the club don't win their appeal against his decision to hand his notice in and walk for free.

    Rumour has it that Oztumer handed in his notice at the same time as Magennis but he’s ‘playing the game’ until it’s resolved, probably next week.

    But it left us short. Wasn't a fan of Ajose in the slightest and Clarke didn't seem rated by Bowyer, but would have been better than having nobody when Igor was injured. Parker replacing Ajose was fine, but we lost Ward, Grant and Clarke as attacking players too and only signed Williams.

    I'd take Magennis back. He didn't do anything wrong here, could have scored more with a decent strike partner.

    Magennis to cover Taylor would be ok. Him and Bonne on the bench as differing options isn't the worst thing in the world given our circumstances. 
  • I really hope we can do a bit better than Josh but the bottom line is we need a striker into the building and if JM is the only player we can get in then so be it.
