A few things going round my head:
- Derby have already been punished. We may think they deserved more punishment, like relegation, but that is not up to us. Fact is they have had their punishment.
- The reason Derby fans blame us is that they have been told a buyer would have come in for them if it were not for the Boro and Wycome claims hanging over the club. I dont know if this is true or not but on the balance of the reports it does seem likely. In this case you can understand Derby fans blaming us as without our claim they would be saved.
- The administrators say the sale of players would not cover the debt. Could be all talk I dont know.
- Everyone knows the reason they are in this mess is their previous chairman but the reason they cannot get out of it is Boro and Wycombes claims
- Boro's claim is vague to say the least and based on what 'might have been' and from my understanding somethign that would be difficult to prosecute under law
- Of course saying all this none of us know what is actually going on behind the scenes and what has gone on in the past but
- There is every chance this is going to blow up to the point where Gibson, so often lauded as a great chairman, will be hated across football
I really think Gibson should step back now and withdraw his claim. We cant be the reason another club goes out of business and I am sure Gibson does not want that but it could well happen if we keep on with this.
