Former Derby County owner Mel Morris has broken his silence on his controversial departure from the club, revealing deep regret over how his tenure ended. In a candid message, Morris admitted that the sale of the club and its financial struggles left an impact he still wrestles with today.
Morris, who oversaw Derby’s rise and subsequent fall into administration, had long remained quiet about the circumstances surrounding his exit. However, in his latest remarks, he acknowledged that mistakes were made and that he wishes things had played out differently.
“I never wanted things to end the way they did,” Morris said. “Looking back, there are decisions I regret, and I understand the frustration of the fans. My intention was always to secure the future of Derby County, but things didn’t go as planned.”
His words will no doubt stir emotions among Rams supporters, who endured a painful period of financial turmoil, administration, and relegation under his ownership. Many still hold Morris responsible for the club’s near-collapse, while others will see his message as a long-overdue acknowledgment of the situation.
Despite the regret, Morris also spoke of his hopes for Derby’s future, praising the club’s resilience and the commitment of the current ownership. “Derby County is a special club, and I truly believe it will rise again. The supporters deserve stability and success, and I hope the current regime can deliver that.”
While some fans may appreciate Morris’ honesty, others will feel his words come too late. Regardless, his statement marks a significant moment in the ongoing story of Derby County’s recovery, as the Rams continue to rebuild and push for a brighter future.
