    When you use the term "Thereabouts" when referring to a difference of £13m, it shows just what a shiteshow football has become.
    It's almost like... "£13 million?  Pfft!" 🙄
    I'm struggling to fall out of love with Derby County FC, but I feckin' detest football!

    I wonder of other countries fans have gone into meltdown. 
    France and Netherlands have both been beaten by  previously struggling Germany. France then later squeezed past Chile 3-2 with a deflected shot and Chile hitting the post.
    Spain only drew with Brazil due to 2 soft penalties. Italy edged the might of Venezuala 2-1. 
    Portugal lost 2-0 to Slovenia.
    We had over half our probable starting XI missing. 
    Chill out people.

    Reader warning @Crewton - I'm not ranting at you with what is below, just in general.
    Oh I'd agree with that point - if anyone needs convincing watch 'Once Upon A Time In Iraq' to see how it works to impose your views on others. But I'm not sure it's quite as simple as suggesting that the last colonial overlord is the one who is then tasked to lead on fixing the problem. It feels more first world / third world to me and situations like this, Somalia, Sudan and Yemen sadly just show that there is no compunction on anyone to redress the inequalities that have formed. I don't think anyone suggests we want to live in a world where everyone is equal to one another, but the level of inequality - and the total disregard to help those who are unable to provide in return - shames us as a species. And the suggestion that because we (first world) haven't always found the formula means there is no option is not really one we should consider - long term investment, education, support and a little bit of care and empathy. Has it ever worked? Well I'd suggest large parts of Latin America, parts of South East Asia and many parts of Europe (benefitting from EU funding, Ireland for example) have seen economic development from external support.
    But hey, let's not worry, slob out on the sofa and in a couple of weeks there will be some 80s pop star in the ad break asking you to give what you can (sadly, without tax refunded). Every little bit helps and all that.
    Oh, and we are helping some countries who need help. Place like Ukraine, Aghanistan, Nigeria so we can do it when we want to.

    That’s good, if that’s their stance they must definitely have voted for fairer distribution of money for EFL clubs as opposed to keeping the same parachute system. Would be a terrible look if not!

    Is that really a good look for the prime minister to be posing for photos with an alleged drug smuggler? What has the PM gained from that. Maybe a couple of votes from the 3 or 4 Forest fans. But when marinakis eventually gets convicted of something, these photos are bound to come back like trump and Epstein.

    Here's Ship 29 having an engine test in the run-up to the coming fourth Integrated Flight Test:
    Analysing Flight 3, it seems the team had significant problems with stabilizing Starship on reentry, so that its heatshield was properly positioned. It was pitching and rolling all over the place, exposing the unprotected areas to the surrounding plasma - hence the loss of vehicle quite early into the descent. Finding a solution is likely the biggest objective of Flight 4.
    In the early tests, when it was just the Starship on its own, flying up and then bellyflopping back down, this wasn't a problem as it was beginning from a stationary start. But now Starship is coming in at 'orbital velocity' it proved harder to maintain stability first time around. In Flight 3 the team decided against a deorbit burn to slow the ship, because of the rolling. I expect they'll be keen to do this next time around.

    That is so stupid of them. How do they not realise they got off lightly? They couldn’t possibly get any less points tramen off. They can’t expect it to be reduced to zero, so what, they’ll reduce it to 2pts, best case scenario. What difference will that really make? And why would any sanctioning body agree to that? As a punishment, it’s no deterrent at all. What do they hope to gain from this? But worst case scenario, they know they were awarded 2 pts back for cooperating, so they logically should have that reapplied by default. 2pts in the opposite direction really could make a difference.
    Right now they’re just 1pt behind Luton. That should be an achievable target. If they can’t make that up on the pitch, then they don’t deserve to be in the premier league. This appeal will just distract them and probably loose them more points on the pitch than they could hope to gain in court. 
    I’ll absolutely piss myself if they get docked an extra 2pts and go down by one. How incredible would that be?!

    He’s nearly had a longer career than his name sake, Bruce.
    Best money we’ve spent in years.
    Slotted in yesterday like he’d never been away and absolutely bossed it.
    The word legend is thrown around far too often these days but our Craig is without doubt a true Derby legend.

    When he finally hangs up his boots I hope he takes up a coaching or mentor role inside the club. The youth could learn a lot from him, resilience, determination, professionalism.
    🍺here’s to you King Craig

    In 100 years time, I’m fairly sure Fozzy’s ghost will still be haunting the left back areas of Pride Park, and he’ll still be the best crosser of the ball at the club.
    I think people do overlook how good he’s actually been for us. He’s been one of the best left backs in the championship for almost a decade. It’s no surprise at all he’s still very good at League One level.

    It feels like Leicester have done the old classic western trope of heading south and getting across the border to Mexico before the rangers catch you. ‘You’ve got no jurisdiction here’. They’re just going to party it up in the championship too the dust settles and then sneak back into the prem.
