Derby County

Where is the moral outrage with how they're cheating FFP?

Buying their own stadium, for a ludicrous sum to cheat the market and now cheating the market by getting their sponsor to fund Rooney.

If it was us people would be screaming for transfer bans and points deductions

better hope we are well clear of Derby when Rooney turns up, he will tear this division a new one unfortrunately.....

The one big loop hole the efl left. There was an article either in TSB or the YEP (or something similar) about GFH having some residual charge over profits/income the club makes which is why we apparently didn’t go down that route as a percentage of whatever the club sold it for would go to them.

unbelievable to think back on the shambles we became post Ridsdale and his kindergarten economics followed by some interesting owners. AR is refreshingly good and competent in comparison.

Training Ground now back to being a top facility
youth programme flourishing
Owns the ground personally (missed out the step of club owning first)
Good coach/manager
Decent squad
we play the best football I have seen from us in years
clear investment being made into the ground and commercial activities - the shop finally looks like decent
we make the most non player related income in the league

Good YEP article about FFP too and Radz hasn’t pumped money in as equity in the last couple of years which reduces the losses we can make to 5m per year (owners can pump in 8m if they want to per season)

All in all things could be a whole lot worse.
