Radio Derby have reported tonight that there will be no restrictions in place from now on as regards paying transfer fees for incoming players and that we will be allowed to trade in the same manner as every other EFL club. The playing field is now level. A business plan remains but income generated can now be spent on players.

It's a good day. We are still in League 1 but our trajectory as a club is upwards.

Farewell Curtis and thanks for everything. Such a shame how it ended for him. Doesn’t deserve that.

Stearman was a good pro and I am still surprised he didn’t get more game time given our predicaments in defence.

Chester was a really good player when he played and it’s such a shame he wasn’t able to play more because of the injuries. He really might have made a difference for us.

Forsyth signing again is great news.

Chester only played in seven games.

I can see him having a great season somewhere else now he's (nearly) fit.

When you see the number of U21s leaving it's clear that a whole new intake is needed. That is borne out by the results obtained this season. Ang can maybe confirm but I'm sure there have been several hammerings and no-one has impressed me from highlights I've seen.

I'm not really surprised that Curt, Stears and Chessy are going. It's very sad, esp re Curt but football can sometimes be hard and DCFC are in no position to be sentimental.

With our new recruitment team in place this could be a very exciting and interesting close season. I'm so pleased that PW is getting on with all this so quickly.

Mainly hammerings, Im afraid, Chicago.
A young and physically understrength u21 team, with players missing through injury and loans away from the club, as well as reduced pre-season recruitment. Taylor-Hart looked ok, I thought, but he was only ever going to be a temporary loan player..
By contrast the u18s have done well under Bucko, finishing 7th (I think) in their league.

Thanks Ang....

I did see some U18s highlights and there seemed to be some promise there.

I'm now a Chelsea fan, but just for one day.

Lampard rubbish, you'd think he would do us a favour after his co ck up in his final match for us.
