    It is starting to smell very iffy.

    A new match date will be communicated to supporters in due course on dcfc.co.uk.
    As far as I am aware I thought the original excuse was to do with staffing (though their megastore was open) then very shortly afterwards they changed it to safety concerns. Methinks they are changing their story on the hoof. If I were a Derby Co official I'd be extremely concerned how:

    - the issue is getting away from their control and
    - the penalty they must be now getting from the EFL.

    There is a mountain of photographic evidence to castigate this ludicrous (if not divisive) postponement.

    It stinks Steve and I hope the club do make a formal complaint as it seems the EFL want more evidence to proceed. Lots of excuses needed now to tidy up a stinking mess at Derby County.
