Derby now 28 points behind us.

 

[HighfieldSeasider]

A number of clubs will be delighted only two relegation places left. The likes of the Knobbers will be breathing a huge sigh of relief, especially if Reading are deducted points as that puts them right in amongst it.

 

[Jaffa_The_Hut]

Weren’t they already appealing the first points deduction?

Derby have now agreed to that deduction.

 

[ForeverTangerine]

Gotta feel sorry for their fans as I can’t see any way out for them now aside from relegation to League 1.

We wouldn't have felt sorry for them if they had been successful getting to the Premier with the same financing

Great set of fans though.

Me too ,I just remember how they supported us during the boycott years when the loads were heavy.

 

[NewburyOne]

Not great for their fans but they'll have to take this and probably relegation on the chin. I also feel sorry for Wycombe who have been shafted and are the real loser in all of this.

Maybe we can have a loud rendition of F*ck the EFL when we go to Pride Park. They were one set of fans who were very vocal with Oyston Out chants.

Good shout. Wouldn’t that be great to hear on Quest later on

Perhaps they can give Wycombe the points back

Wycombe benefited big time the season before when Covid cut short the season as they were outside the Play Offs and plummeting at the time so they had luck with rules going in their favour just prior to that. Swings and roundabouts.

And they have an ex Nobber as manager. Sod em

Very good shout that BHOK

That would be a great thing to do, they’re a good set of fans at Derby so lets give them our support it’s their club that’s let them down by breaking the rules!

There was a f*ck the EFL banner held up at the Homecoming game. Maybe something like that too if anyone could do it.

I wouldn't disagree but the 2 situations are completely different, one was a global pandemic out of the hands of all clubs, the 2nd is a club spending way more than they should and also delayed like hell to avoid relegation last season. I get your point in a more generic karma to Wycombe's position.

The only good thing from the fans point of view is that, next season they'll probably be Champs of Div. 1

 

[bollieboy]

The stupid thing about the EFL FFP rules is that if they had been promoted to the EPL then Derby would have not had any sanctions applied as the EPL do not follow the EFL rules. Villa, who both beat Derby in the 2019 play-offs, were in breach of FFP when they were promoted.

Just like Blunderland have been thinking for the last 5 years

It reads to me like an immediate 9 point deduction plus a suspended 3 point deduction.

think it is. Table shows them on -3.

Not sure, that's what Sunderland thought and let's face it they're a bigger club than Derby.

Yes, that is what I meant.

 

[Chunkylad]

Probably what the Massive are thinking this season too?

 

[Beedar]

Bet Derbys fans are looking forward to their last away match here

 

[Maths]

Fair play to Derby fans though - their average this season is 19,500 - bet that'll soar to over 20,000 in League One. Not had a promotion for years and I reckon they'll think they'll walk it (of course whether they do or not is a different matter!).
