Easy ride for Wooney now...stay up....hero....relegated....everybody else's fault.
dare I say I've been quite impressed with Rooney's handling of it so far?
He’s done well.

Franchise FCSutekhWycombe Royal 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.

Doesn't this sort of thing always come up when someone is found guilty of shenanigans? And literally never comes to anything

genome I don't think there's much of a case really as you can just say "well, you should've won some more games"

This week's Telegraph report also details how Derby hijacked Boro's move for striker Martyn Waghorn in 2018, paying double the fee that Boro had agreed and offering £10,000 a week more in wages.

An extra £10k a week at this level is a lot.
Glass houses ofc but unless boro were being extremely tight then Derby must have been paying well above the going rate.

They've worn blue and white hoops for years.

Yeah, it's an unpopular take given how everyone loves Ainsworth but I can't help feeling that if there had been less of the "we're just happy to be here" from him at the start of the season they'd have given themselves a far better chance to stay up. The lower end of the championship really isn't all that and Wycombe proved in the second half of the season that they could more than live with those teams.
Just think they came in with an inferiority complex when they could've been riding the momentum of promotion.

If I was Boro, I'd consider that one a lucky escape and keep my mouth shut.
And whilst we're at it, is this a different Boro to the one that went into administration in the 80s and spent most of the 90s and the early part of this century spaffing the chairman's money on players they probably couldn't afford?
Should point out I have no axe to grind with Middlesbrough. Decent people up there and always a good away day.
