Does anyone know if Sunday’s FA Cup match can be streamed (eg FA Player)?

Yep!

Was going to post similar. I've listened to match commentary from several other local radio stations and not one compares favourably with Radio Derby. I think sometimes we take RD for granted. It's so intertwined with the club. Graham Richards, Colin Broomfield and Ed Dawes have been the voice of Derby County for so many.

Personally, I really enjoy Ed's commentary. Yes, he gets swept up in the moment sometimes...but so do I when watching Derby County play. What's the point if you don't get passionate?

I'm so sorry to hear that Ed is struggling. We nearly lost our club and the man was in tears. I kind of remember a saying - we're all Derby aren't we? Maybe a show of support for a true Ram?

Can we do a clap on Saturday? Anyone got any ideas on an appropriate minute?

 

Another to agree with this. Certainly as far as local radio commentary goes, RD is bloody good. The standard of commentary/ journalism we've had is great.

Do we know if there will be more games at PP, or just Forest..?

Really like it - shame the sponsor's logo colours don't compliment it...

Elsnik did play a few cup games...

Who are Brentford's sponsors again..?

Who's he going to sue now?

Thank you Curtis.

Correct, and we were without our two most experienced centre halves for most of the campaign. 

Really matters as well; you can see this when u21s/ academy teams play against non-league sides in pre-season, or in the Senior Cup. Even if they are technically great the sheer difference in physicality is really pronounced at that age.

Thing is though the academy squads were stripped bare. So our U21s were probably playing against players a few years further on in their development.

Sorry for keeping the thread updated. Sheesh.

Plymouth now winning - would leave Wednesday with nothing to play for next weekend.

Still in Derby's hands as things stand - Peterborough 0-0 with Bristol Rovers.

Pen to Rovers...

And he sees himself as a 'head it and kick it' centre half. He's so much better than that,.

14 unbeaten.

Up to fifth.

Another clean sheet.

Best defence in the league.

Ah bugger. 

Kelleher has form for saving pens as well I think?

Max Bird captaining his side at Anfield.

After everything that happened over the last year or so...

Yes, I'm sure that one of the main things that Warne has asked the team to do is give away daft penalties.

Yes, a massive overreaction.

We were standing a few rows back in the terrace. The weather was awful and got worse as the game went on. The pitch was awful and got worse as the game wore on.

The conditions were a world away from the comforts of Pride Park and honestly more suitable for wellington boots than football boots.

Torquay’s players relished those conditions because they had nothing to lose and they knew the conditions would level things up and be favourable to them.

It was a tough, back and forth, well contested cup tie in difficult conditions. It was far from a disgrace.

In 2011, we were knocked out of the FA Cup by non-league Crawley Town and at the time we were a mid-table Championship side. Now that was a disgrace!

The 3-1 to Bristol Rovers was bad as well. They were near the bottom of Division Three (as was) at the time.

I read someone on here call nml that the other day too, you’d think we’d being doing better with all of these cheat codes! Not as good as we think we are

We have good, but inconsistent players (for whatever reason), which is why they are in league one.

Does look boggy on that far side now.

Why have we brought Tommo on instead of Rooney 

Ridiculous 

Only just back from injury isn't he? Might need him at CB soon, so no point risking him.
