I wouldn't be surprised if running August's payroll was a challenge for the club.

It's gone a bit quiet about ramifications / compensation for the pitch being unavailable.

I don’t see how we will get through to January at all. One game in September - the strategy regarding player sales (or not) is proving a disaster

We've benched players because the season has only just started for us and the squad is small. Two full games a week straight away, without getting injuries is difficult and therefore needs to be managed.

So Fadz who is the oldest player manages the games why leave the younger ones out???

Then the owners simply have to sell up as at this rate they risk losing the whole pot

The other problem is even if we limp to January if Gyokeres remains in this form he and Hamers values will have plummeted - but hey some experts think we are sustainable

This bust, if it happened, surely ony happened this week?
Although performances haven't been great there was no suggestion of anyone 'downing tools'.
So what's brought things to a head?

Tbf I've heard today financially we're in the toilet and the reason the players wanted out who wanted out is because of these concerns

We literally cannot afford to exist as a championship club under these owners

Put it as open to offers as possible and see who shows interest. Better now than when 50 points adrift

It may of had something to do with a lack of signings in the transfer window.
And a realisation that we are on the shit financially, maybe word got out that we've been touting our players to anyone who will take them.

Been mentioned in financial papers and jordan himself said they were sale. Any respectable offer and they would be gone

I just think a lot of its confidence and some are feeling the pressure already. If we hadn’t thrown the Millwall game I don’t think a lot of this chat is even happening

I can imagine that Moore would have been beating himself up for his role in throwing 3 games, but this week it’s visible how demoralised a good number of the outfield players appear to be.

It’s all so avoidable too, that’s what I find so frustrating

She could not send Boddy and the ITKs out to say the club isn’t for sale.

It’s just been a horrible start to the season, lack of home games, getting up to speed later than everyone else due to stop start first month, losing Hyam, ohare injured and all of a sudden stuck at the bottom and panic sets in

They need to get their heads on quick ! I think next week we’ve also got a big role to play getting behind them though. Beat West Brom and things start looking a bit brighter

But Derby's ground was available for sale to any prospective owner. Our ground is owned by another entity who give priority to their own plans and requirements

Plays in one of the less demanding positions in terms of many sprints with short rest periods in-between.

Admittedly today he spent most of the game sprinting back towards our goal and probably needs a rest now.

The one that apparently Matty James initiated after that awful QPR performance did a fair bit of good. Now on McF probably to do the same here

Well really I’d expect MR to be doing it himself but if it’s easier without him there then it’s on the few leaders left. Maybe Kelly could get off the treatment table and have a go
