    MadAmster got a reaction from europia in Form in November   
    My thoughts entirely. A net improvement getting 1, maybe 2 strikers in, a speedy wide player, and a proper solid Seth/Hudds-like midfielder plus adequately replacing any players exiting is what is needed.

    MadAmster got a reaction from On the Ram Page in Comparisons   
    We've conceded as many as this time last year and scored more. Not sure if folk will see that as a success or failure. Considering the turnover in players and the injuries and having to assimilate a dozen new players. I see it as an improvement. A net improvement in the squad over the January window should see us get more points in the 2nd half of the season than we will have in the 1st and put us in a good position for 3rd prize (top 6) at worst, 2nd prize (2nd place) or the 2st prize, going up as Champions.
    That's the theory and logic but, this is football and, more importantly, it's Derby, it doesn't work that way. We shall see what we shall see. UTR!

    Personally think it should work like cricket, captain can call for a VAR review if they believe there was an offside or foul in build up etc.
    Human error happens, we all know that. The concept of VAR works, just currently the implementation is what is not working.

    With regard to the time it takes to reach a VAR decision at times, I have long held the view that if they can't find a reason to overturn a decision within 30 seconds then any mistake by the officials is neither clear nor obvious and the original decision should stand.

    Plenty of time for my fellow Rams to get in. We only had an allocation of 1500 or so and we were far from the first in.
    Can't remember the pie flavour. Just that I remember it having been a tasty one.

    Tell me about it. Bournemouth, 2 season's ago. Empty yer pockets, everything in yer 'and. Everybody getting the old pat down. I got waved through. Ya dunt gerraway that easy Mr High Viz... I stood there, not moving along, not even an inch while I, nice and slowly, put all my stuff back into the correct pocket of the correct garment. As I walked past Mr HV, I smiled that knowing, satisfied smile and he smiled back knowing exactly what I'd done and why.
    Pies at Bournemouth were very good as well.

    For me it's sitting for more than 30 minutes with my shins at 90 degrees to my thighs that brings my arthritis to the boil and it's pretty damned excruciating

    When I buy multiple tickets, the first one is assigned to me, I then scroll down to the 2nd ticket and assign it to the correct age group and fan ID, wash, rinse repeat for all subsequent tickets...

    Through the years we've stayed at a fair few in Corralejo. This was our first time at Ocean Suites and we were well pleased.
    Lobos Bahia 3 or 4 times. TAO Caleta Playa 5 times. Alysios Playa, Las Dunas, Maxorata Beach, Oasis Dunas all once. A couple of others whose names I forget... That's spread over the past 27 years.

    Sorry to return to the thread title...
    Watched the game on my tablet on my apartment terrace, overlooking the pool (we expected, and got, the monthly 5 minute downpour during the game). This is how @Owen87ITK looks when viewed from Corralejo.
     
    3 more points from a less than inspiring game but that's already been covered.

    Hi sis, my sincere condolences to you and yours. I'm a resident of Amsterdam and will be in Fuerteventura on the day of the Bristol game. I never met B4 but had many a conversation with him on an old, now defunct, Rams forum. At the time he was having difficulties putting together a CV and I offered to help. That turned out, in the end, not necessary as another forum member, Elaine Dean, picked up the issue and was closer at hand to help. 
    Here's to many flanges and scavers being waved, especially in minute 38, in recognition of Daniel's immense spirit and love for all things Derby County.
