Ian Evatt has thrown in the towel. Don't mess it up Derby...

Agreed on not moving the disabled section in the south stand. If moved, it's essentially saying the disabled supporters are less important than the abled bodied supporters. Disabled gets shoved away into the corner. Going to PPS on a matchday, being part of the south stand community and atmosphere might be one of the few things in their lives that's "normal" so to say. It's like saying, let's forcibly move a few rows from behind the goal, just so, and replace those supporters with other supporters. It's the same principle.

They did the photoshoot for the home kit on Friday. My wife has a friend that works at Moor Farm and who let's thing slip occasionally. The club is awaiting the retail stock that they ordered back a couple of months ago.

They said they'll be based in the canteen all day, but have roaming all access throughout. It might've been a slip of tongue but Dom mentioned that Warne had bought a new coffee machine. Just hang around there and you'll get the gossip. Free gravy dinner perhaps? Though I guess it'll be steamed broccoli, rice and chicken for the athletes.

I don't know why folk got their hopes up though. If it's anything of reasonable size, the club would announce it first. Player signing, new contract, investment etc. This was always going to be a RD specific thing. Gone are the days of the Green'Un breaking the latest headlines, the club have their own media channels and will want the first say. Under Clowes there's no mega leaks, most players are signed under the radar unlike with Mel Morris and Sam Rush.

Well despite the doom and gloom on this, I'm actually looking forward to it all. It'll be quite interesting listening to non pre/post match generic questioning from the players and management. An intriguing insight into the folk behind the scenes that you don't know about or hear from usually. I know the kit man and the club secretaries have been there donkeys years, they'll surely have some stories to tell. People have been crying out for the club to be more open and transparent, then when it happens there's all moans... Typical!

My parents were in Seattle a few weeks ago and bumped into him at a restaurant. He's got a very good job as a tv sports presenter for one of the Seattle teams so I doubt it's that.

Cameron Ashia signs for Huddersfield after leaving us last summer. Is he a big miss? https://www.htafc.com/news/2024/april/cameron-ashia-signs-for-towns-b-team/

I had a great view of it, very blatant head butt followed by some handbags. He knew exactly what he was doing and what he had done was evident with him already storming off the pitch before the red was issued. Absolutely unprofessional to the highest degree. Just like Tom Lawrence of old, opposition players know they can wind him up easily and he'll react. I'm sure we all remember him stupidly diving into a defender on halfway vs Rotherham moments after they'd easily won the ball from him. Straight red card, stupidity just like Bradley yesterday.

It's ever so tight in the championship, 5 points separating 16th to 23rd and only 3 points between 18th and 23rd. The mid table party 12th to 15th divided by just 2 points. With the next group challenging for the play offs not too far away points wise. For me, a first season up is just all about staying up, second season is cementing that mid table, with the third season moving into the next group and pushing for the play offs. This brings gradual and continuous progression. We can't expect to do a Ipswich and challenge for promotion straight again. If that plays out, amazing, but realistically it won't happen. Let's get the job done here first, let's get promotion confirmed then let's worry about next season when it comes.

Those boys then, and all the others that went to Manchester United, Brighton, Villa and everywhere else. We've been decimated of youth over the recent years. The squad we've produced but lost due to one reason or another would be stacked of talent.

He wouldn't get in the team over Adams. Pointless signing!

Not losing him for pennies like we did with Ebiowei, Ebosele and others from recent years. If clubs really want him, pay up the big cash or go do one.

It's poor judgment from Dom, the old adage "don't give the referee a decision to make" comes in here. Sure, technically speaking one meaning could be general discussion, but overall, the most common understanding of the word by a landslide is negative slanting. Dom could've easily used a different word that'll not be confused. Likewise with seemingly suggesting that Brown has left the club entirely. Very poor choice of wording and sentence structure from him. Whether he's trying to create a media story and bait engagement remains to be seen. I'd more likely put it down to naivety and the inexperience of trying to use big words where basic words would do the job fine.

Looks like the Wycombe ambulance chaser has seen that playing with fire so close to home is a wrong move.
