Think qpr are distinctly average but just had a good start

They way they crumbled against us before our own late balls up told a tale about them. Very soft at the back I thought

Except for Dickie. Came through the best academy so can't put a foot wrong.

Although extremely fortunate not to have gota red card against us....

I'm expecting them to fall away. Thought they were pretty average.

And there was me thinking they had won the league the way they celebrated when they got the late leveller against us.

Didn’t get the chance to celebrate the draw today against Bristol City.

slightly odd to leave Swansea only to end up at a club in pretty much the same situation

I guess they have an owner there who has shown he is willing to spend money, which Swansea can't/won't - so he may well see it as a better opportunity going forward - despite them being in the crapper at the mo.

Yeah, struggling with that one to be honest.

Just what Forest need, a manager happy to get them deeper in trouble.

Anyone know how close Forest are to FFP “interest”? Seems to me they’ve spent a good amount on players and wages in the last few seasons.

They can't be far off. The EFL should have just started everyone on -9 points and be done with it. At least it would mean our 106 would have been safe for another year!

Apparently forest paying 1.2m compo for him. Bloody hell

Derby officially enter administration and have been deducted 12 points.

.....higher.....higher

Easy ride for Wooney now...stay up....hero....relegated....everybody else's fault.

Derby officially enter administration and have been deducted 12 points.

It’s not stopping there either. Players have been asked to defer a third of their wages while the administrators seek to sort some of the mess out and find new owners (can’t imagine a name like Derby will have to wait too long for new owners to be found though).

However, not only do they have another 9 point deduction in the offing, but Middlesbrough may start legal proceedings against Derby over their financial mismanagement which effectively saw ‘boro miss out on the play offs and lose out on the services of a couple of players through Derby offering deals that contributed to the mess they are now in (see story link below)

There would appear to be a prima facie case for Wycombe on that basis.

dare I say I've been quite impressed with Rooney's handling of it so far?
