Takeover deal gone back to 80-20 split with Fawaz. Can't get rid of the worm.
1.) 29 Nov 2016 11:55:00
It's my understanding that is what it's always been.
2.) 29 Nov 2016 16:00:30
If that's true we are sunk.
3.) 29 Nov 2016 16:10:17
bsered 20% gives him no actual running of the club his input will be listened to and ignored, he only wants some money back, also i reckon the new owners realise how much we dispise him so hopefully he will be ignored and asked to make the tea at board meetings😎.
4.) 29 Nov 2016 18:37:39
oj71 I cannot see the Americans cosying up to Fawaz; they will want to get rid of him as much as we do, so we'll see what transpires.
5.) 29 Nov 2016 20:42:26
One good thing. The Americans are good businessmen.
6.) 30 Nov 2016 06:16:45
seems like some fans think the Americans will be our dream owners. the club wil be run better behind the scenes which is a massive bonus but don't expect them to splash the cash without selling some players on. it will end up being one out and a couple in that are cheaper than the sale price. which can't be helped as the running cost are high at the club and we cannot afford to splash the cash and not get promoted.
7.) 30 Nov 2016 12:55:47
Thats pure speculation no substance to that ! 😕.
30 Aug 2016 17:01:36
Carayol to sign tonight on a free along with Dumitru on loan.
1.) 30 Aug 2016 17:12:28
Er so we aren't investing the money from Burke! Hah what a surprise!
2.) 30 Aug 2016 17:34:00
Didn't Fawaz say though that they are after 3-4 players so the other (s) may be 'blow ya socks off' signings?
Yes living in hope LOL.
3.) 30 Aug 2016 17:52:34
But if the marquee signing is being left until deadline day, we know how our deadline day luck is.
4.) 30 Aug 2016 17:52:42
I wonder how many people now realise how the club is being shafted, as the owner at Newcastle has done, and several others too to their clubs? Are any pennies dropping yet?
5.) 30 Aug 2016 18:13:50
How many more times are we going to have to flog our best players to satisfy FFP? We did it with Darlow/ Lascelles and with Antonio and now with Burke! And we don't get top dollar either! Each time our chances of promotion recede well after season tickets have been sold! A definite pattern.
6.) 30 Aug 2016 18:43:28
Twf- you could also say when are fans going to realise that we can't afford not to sell some players? We either sell players, pay double for our tickets and merchandise, all of a sudden increase our revenue by a ridiculous amount or rely on owners such as fawaz to prop us up? Fawaz doesn't appear to be learning from some of his mistakes and I certainly don't think he is doing a great job but he isn't the only one to blame.
How many fans would be happy to live 100% within our means (ie. Don't rely on any external investment or owner loans etc. ) and possibly be a well run mid championship or league 1 team? Or how many would be prepared to increase their investment ie. pay more money for tickets, merchandise etc.?
I don't agree with a lot of fawaz's decisions but I still have a certain amount of respect for him and until we can get a more rounded owner I think he deserves a certain amount of support and respect. I think fans need to be careful how they treat him as he could quite easily throw the towel in and we could be stripped to the bare bones and run on a shoe string. what happens if he doesn't keep covering the losses?
7.) 30 Aug 2016 18:43:49
I genuinely am unsure about how the FFP works but how come we got punished so bad buying Assombalonga but teams like Derby don't get punished when they've just spent £8m on Vydra?
8.) 30 Aug 2016 19:30:52
I'm sure Derbys books are going to make interesting reading over the last 12 months!
9.) 30 Aug 2016 21:23:21
Derby is ran as a business on and off the field, the ipro stadium is a venue for almost anything most days of the week, it generates a huge income. The city ground? Generates hardly anything, the club needs to generate money off the pitch and not just on match day.
10.) 30 Aug 2016 21:31:30
as it has been said before, all clubs wheel and deal. You sell, raise funds and buy. If they do well you sell and use the money to buy again. that's life for 98 % of clubs. Its not a matter of ambition its life. Players want to move to improve themselves and increase their earnings so making their life secure financially.
The club owners are having to juggle finances constantly.
Yes its sad when a good player leaves but as a supporter of many years have seen this time and time again and look forward to the next star. Bonus being if the youth set up produces a star.
11.) 30 Aug 2016 22:16:23
Hate to say it but Derby create revenue from both ticket sales and stadium hire. They are not threatened by FFP because they don't breach it.
12.) 31 Aug 2016 12:05:34
Perhaps the best signing we could make is someone to run the club properly! Still no CEO!

According to the papers McCormack hasn't trained with Forest for 3 weeks because of personal issues.
I'm not one to judge because you don't know what's going on behind closed doors but that's a big chunk of wages we are paying right there.
1.) 19 Apr 2017 07:11:40
We like wasting our money on no hopers also I think the problem is his gate must be jammed again.
2.) 19 Apr 2017 07:19:09
If he has not trained, then we should not pay him, and also try and get the loan fee back from Villa. Another wonderful piece of business by Fawaz.
3.) 19 Apr 2017 12:02:56
Them damned gates again :)
4.) 19 Apr 2017 12:56:46
He needs to bring the gates to work and stick em in our goal mouth
With our luck they'd probably start opening though.
18 May 2017 14:55:57
Humourist you know Marinakis personally do you?
16 May 2017 11:06:28
Pinillos is okay, but just as injury prone as Traore. and personally I thought he had a bad game against Derby until he scored.
25 Apr 2017 08:31:20
Fake and why would they announce a takeover at the end of the season? If a deal goes through Fawaz isn't the owner anymore.
24 Apr 2017 08:43:21
The sales not even been confirmed and there are people moaning. I'm surprised how you all get through every day life to be honest.
04 Apr 2017 15:59:44
There's going to be slot of people out of contract at the end of the season, I can't see us being in for them all.
30 Aug 2016 06:49:13
Fawaz is that you?
