If he was set on Derby, how come it hasn't been announced yet? Surely he would have agreed terms etc by now.

I think he has now put it in the owners court! So if he goes, everyone will know that Venky's won't back him and club. Very clever, and expect him to leave in next 24 hours.

What's Neil Warnock up to these days?

The former Derby player has been named as the favourite by the bookies and some media reports to take the role. Blackburn play tomorrow. So, if a deal is close, you would think they would want it done before tomorrow’s game. Meanwhile, Derby must focus on getting a win to end a club record losing streak of eight games and getting themselves out of the relegation zone. They face a Norwich side unbeaten at home in the league in their last five games.

He's a goner for sure, the absent owners and cronies running our club should be ashamed. What next? Rooney here?

2nd favourite for Derby job with bookies, Alan Nixon mentions that he is on their shortlist and Carsley has not been contacted about the job.
