We're going by the English version of the rules, not your crazy moon language

I've been saying for ages we should try to sign Woodman, I'm surprised Swansea didn't try to sign him permanently tbh

I love Leo and I hope he has a job at Boro for life, if he chooses.

That £30m is taxpayer's money. Really can't see HMRC letting Derby get away with paying a penny less. That said, they may allow it to be paid in installments over a longer period of time. The main issue though really is HMRC setting a dangerous precedent for all other football clubs. If Derby County can get away with not paying tax, why can't we, etc.

The problem is if Derby go under then HMRC get nothing, they simply become another non-football creditor, albeit a high priority one.

Not that young, I'm 38, but compared to you "journeymen" yeah 😜

This thread so far has shown me that there are a lot more OAPs on this forum than I thought!

HMRC cutting any of the debt sets a seriously dangerous precedent, so I don't think it's likely to happen. Either this American businessman puts his money where his mouth is and pays off the debt or they cease to exist.

I think they're screwed, and it couldn't happen to a nicer club, tbh. Yeah yeah, it nearly happened to us, blah blah, yadda yadda, whatever. We didn't brag about cheating the system and claim to have the EFL on strings like Derby supporters did (and yes, not all of them are like that, but the most vocal ones are.) *** 'em.

Happy Birthday, dear leader!

Rubber Dinghy Rapids, brother I love Four Lions. I think Chris Morris wrote it at exactly the right time too, I'm not sure it would fly these days. Btw I was kidding about Hot Fuzz being the best movie of all time, my actual top 3 would be: 1. The Godfather Part II 2. The Shawshank Redemption 3. Seven Samurai Tbh I flop between 1 & 3 all the time, Seven Samurai is a stone cold classic though.

Middlesbrough v Swansea City Saturday 4th December Riverside Stadium KO: 3pm We beat Huddersfield! We played well (apart from the silly own goal!) The team are starting to look the business, but can we do it on home turf against Swansea City, a team who are only just above us in the table by a point? (Can we catch the Swan(s), then? IT'S A HOT FUZZ REFERENCE, LEAVE ME ALONE) Will I join the fabled 3 game MDT Club? Find out on Saturday! Team News Dael Fry, Martin Payero and Marcus Browne are all back in full training, woohoo. Expect Fry and Payero to

Rotherham fans were gutted when he left, now I see why. It's taken him a while but under Wilder he looks like a totally different player

In footballing news, Derby lost at home to QPR tonight and are now 19 points from safety. Happy days

I'll just leave this David Squires cartoon here, which sums it up perfectly (not sure if it was already posted but anyway, it's spot on.) https://www.theguardian.com/football/ng-interactive/2021/oct/12/david-squires-on-newcastle-united-saudi-takeover
