Fair play to Wycombe. Nearly did something everyone said would have been impossible

Decent bet for promotion from League 1 next season? They, like us, got acclimatised to Championship football eventually. Just too late for them.

Just had a quick look on the SW forum. Seems they have "lost" Hillsborough and have to rent it back for £2.5m for the next 30 years and this takes precedant over the playing budget. That amount of rent in L1 could see them off.

2.5m per season.....???
That will be the end of them...

Watching the highlights on Quest, it seems ridiculous Rotherham scored a beauty like that, then missed chance after chance after chance.

We should try for 23yo CB (can play DM too) Josh Knight who’s been on loan there from Leicester and won their POTS and players player. Being released

Paul Warne interview.
Absolutely drained. Felt for him.

Seems a thoroughly decent bloke. A shame he's the one who's team are going down, and not Rooney.

He didn’t deserve it to end like that and Rooney definitely didn’t deserve to stay up, but if both are still employed this time next season they’ll be swapping leagues.

Real emotion. Not "feel sorry for me" crocodile tears.
Said he doesn't know if he can carry on.
Quest saying Rotherham have averaged more shots p/g than Watford. But 1 win in last 12 (?) has cost them.

Rooney will have Derby down by Christmas. Bloke is clueless.

Bialik will surely leave in the summer too.

Depends.. if they need the money yes, but I keep hearing rumours they are getting taken over. Is that a thing? Can't say I pay much attention to Derby.

Don't think the purported bloke taking over has any money tbf.
Would likely load more debt on them.
If it hasn't happened, I'm not sure it will.
I may look like a pratt as it may have happened but been too busy to keep track.

The guy wanting to take over was Chansiri’s ‘adviser’ at Sheff W

Ha OK, did I say down by Christmas? Can I change it to down by Halloween.

Commentary on sky fairly clear that he didn’t believe the takeover was going to happen

 

[Liquid Gold]

I know we shouldn’t be wishing it on anybody but a 10 point deduction for Derby would be a good start to next season.

Decent player. I think he's going to join Peterborough.

It's not just Rooney, the club's a mess.
The national press hailing Rooney as "saving" Derby is ridiculous though.

Look at their last 15 results

Reports this morning that Derby are facing a points deduction for overspending over the past 3 years. They could be starting next season on minus points

The Alan Nixon article talks of potentially a "massive" deduction, i.e. double figures of points (similar to Wednesday's original -12 I'd assume). Surprised it's not happened sooner tbf.

Waghorn giving a speech like he's won the balon dor

He is an absolute top fella

 

[Alkhen]

How haven't they taken Waghorn off straight away?
