Mr Popodopolous Posted December 31, 2020 Report Share Posted December 31, 2020 Like clockwork...a report on it from this year. Takeover in the works- dunno what happened, but late with paying players once again. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-7843555/Rooneys-big-night-overshadowed-wages-row-Derby-club-failing-pay-players-time.html Ha no wait- that was last year- dejavu? https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-9102319/Derby-County-fail-pay-players-December-wages-delay-60m-sale-club.html Sheffield Wednesday as well, issues with wages. The funny thing here, both Chansiri and Morris inherited pretty good starting points. In the case of the former, solid but unspectacular, moderate losses- low or moderate- maybe even no debt, midtableish Championship. Morris- Inherited a side who lost playoff final under McClaren and fell out of playoffs late on in 2014/15- they both really made their mark in summer 2015. Young side, attractive football in their case, strong at this level. If it was down to me, I'd soft embargo in the following transfer window for non-payment or even late payment of wages but sadly it isn't. One other side note, I thought it was the case that to be a manager/Head Coach of a side you had to have certain qualifications. Now I'm not bothered so much about the qualifications themselves being a dealbreaker, more a case of one rule for one- pretty sure Rooney has not got them yet?

Mr Popodopolous Posted December 31, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2020 I do love the myopic outlook and mental gymnastics of some on their forum though. https://dcfcfans.uk/topic/36495-derby-fail-to-pay-players-on-time-again/ Especially when they compare their Governance very favourably to Sheffield Wednesday. https://dcfcfans.uk/topic/36492-sheffield-wed-press-briefing/ Two bald men over a comb! God I don't like Derby... This poster has it right on there, to be fair. Quote Piss poor. Every time it happens a club should be docked three points. Agreed!
