Derby County, one of the founder members of the Football League, and amongst the world's oldest clubs, is facing extinction.
Due to the mismanagement and appalling stewardship of the Rams' former owner, Mel Morris, the club has already been punished by way of a massive -21 point penalty and fine.
However, and against all the odds, the team, led by former England legend Wayne Rooney, has been pulling out all the stops and has given the club a fighting chance of escaping relegation.
Unfortunately, and despite new owners waiting in the wings, the administrators currently in charge at Pride Park have found themselves at loggerheads with the English Football League (EFL), who it seems keep placing ever more obstacles in the way of the club's survival.
The matter is further complicated by legal action taken against Derby, unjustly in the eyes of many, by Middlesbrough FC and Wycombe Wanderers, on the back of Morris's indiscretions.
With the club's very future at stake, as well as the livelihoods of so many, and 138 years of tradition and history, this video is a short plea from myself (Paul Bull), a proud Derbeian and lifelong Rams supporter, appealing for fellow fans around the country (and the world) to stand with the supporters of Derby County and speak out against the EFL's treatment.
The matter has already been raised in Parliament, and conversations are ongoing between local MPs, dignitaries, and officials on all sides.
However, time is running out and the new owners need to be allowed to take control and save the club without any more barriers.
As loyal fans, we will keep up the pressure.
Please help us "Save Our Club"!
