Derby are only nine points off the 4th bottom club, which at this time of the season the rams are within reach & is quite attainable.

Points deduction should have been more!

Agree Leon the fact they have spent a number of weeks negotiating with the EFL to reduce the points deduction smacks once again of Derby favouritism.

No doubt their fans are squealing and whaling about how cruel this all is, how they are being picked on and the punishment far out ways the crime, my highly educated, fair and compassionate response is :lol: :lol: :lol:

We didn't get the opportunity to "negotiate" anything, their minds were made up, just like poor Pascal.

Today's points deduction was the immediate one for going into administration. There are further points deductions coming for failing FFP for the last three years, and not getting their accounts lodged in time, and for fiddling the amortisation rules for their players.

I think the points deductions for each individual breach added up to circa 50 points, but I think that the maximum the EFL can allow is 21 points.

I still travel around the country to away matches on a fairly regular basis, when it suits my current location dictated by work.
Can’t miss this one but I will have to sit with the mutes.
Think you're on the wrong thread DDB, .....this is a Derby County thread :-D


But I hope you and your youngest have a great time at The Emirates :) ... and we get the right result . Sorry little junior DDB...Daddy needs to win this one....

I think the other 9 point deduction is held over till next season isn't it?
So, if they go down this season they will be starting life in League 1 on -9.

3 of the nine points was suspended, which will almost certainly be immediately taken into account. Just seen that they have failed to pay their players on time (again) which I think was the 3 point suspension. They have asked the players to take a wage deferral. The rest - who knows.

Must pull you up on this MC, I'm from Wolverhampton which is part of the Midlands and even though Wolverhampton is a bit old and rundown these days I feel slightly offended that I may fall into the 'twat' category so can we be a bit more specific and label Derby as 'East Midlands Twats' but there may be Leeds fans in that area too (if they have any sense ) so shall we agree on 'Pride Park Twats' ?
