I’m going for 1-0 

frgs Plange , just have a feeling ??

That would be it for me - I’d just find something else to do - there’s no way I could ever support another football club. ?

Kirchner sounds like he could be the ‘cherry’ on top !! ??

I’m sure Gibson will sue Derby County fans for supporting a ‘not for profit’ organisation !!  

1-1 frgs Festy 

Errrrrrr, pretty sure we’ll get NIL 

Looking forward to bringing Centre Back Cashin in to the first team squad - it’s a tragedy that his progress has been stalled. 
Definitely need a new keeper - Roos needs to move on - Allsop will do for squad cover. Marshall will be gone too. 
Byrne - sorry , I don’t rate him - his first job is to defend and he just doesn’t. We have young blood behind him that need to be given to chance to develop in the first team. 
Jozwiak - hopefully we can sell him - clearly is a talented lad, but just didn’t fit the English game . 
M my Lawrence - I’ll drive him myself to any destination that will have him, even anywhere in Europe if they are daft enough to offer him a contract. For me he’s an embarrassment to wear a Derby shirt. 
I’d like to think we can keep Belik, but he may wish to leave and his wages v potential injury is a big issue. 
Need to try and keep Shinnie, Bird, Sibley if we can. 
Knight will go for hopefully big money - £5m+ hopefully. 
Think we’ll sell Buchannan too for £2-3m.

id keep CKR, as I think he’ll be great in Div 1 for 1-2 seasons. 

Whether Stretton is up for Div 1 is up for debate, but we definitely need 2 more Strikers. 
Baldock isn’t good enough at any level imo. 
 

I suppose it all depends on players Agents and new owners willingness to under write and debt levels/payments as required by Administrators to come out if Administration and purchase the club. 
 

I think we definitely need to keep Rooney, as I genuinely think he wants to stay at the club and build it back to where it should be. Also I think it suits him geographically, in relation to travelling from his home and his family life. 
 

im quite looking forward to Div 1 - it was an absolute blast back in the 80’s !! ??

Can weas Mr Gibson if we can play our U13's ? Or will that constitute another 12pt penalty for child exploitation ?

Yeah, but if we apply a new ‘amortisation’ formula, we can sign loads,,,,,,,,,,,,  ?

Is it realistic to expect them to be a board member? Also, is that there objective? I’m not sure it is. I, and others were in agreement that RamsTrust should move on quickly in regards to discussing being a board member so the administration process moved on more swiftly. They can’t win with some fans. 

Board membership is most definitely the ‘Golden Fleece’ - but that’s when the real ‘Game of Thrones’ would start In those dark smokey corridors of inner sanctum, where they’d be sliding down those corridors with their backs firmly attached to the wall, fearful of who would inflict the swift bladed strike in pursuit of that ‘Golden Fleece’  -  that’s almost poetic ?

Allsop- 8.5

Byrne- 6

Forsyth- 8

Stearman- 7.5

Davies- 7

Shinnie- 7.5

Bird- 7

Morrison- 6.5

Knight- 7.5

Lawrence- 6

Baldock- 5

Stretton- 6

This is exactly the problem - ramstrust  have historically badged themselves that they are ‘captains of business’, undisputedly experienced in being able to run a football club. 
Utter twaddle !!! 
Sunday pub team maybe, but a professional football club of the status of Derby County FC,,,,,,,,,, fantasy island,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,  

No no no  - I wouldnt want to see ramstrust anywhere near the running of the club.  My opinion of them is they think they are some kind of 'elite' supporters, I believe that they genuinely think they are more intelligent than the ordinary supporter and know better than ordinary supporters.

Trust ?,,,,,,,,,,,, I wouldn't trust any of them.  George Orwells Animal Farm springs to mind !!!

I quite like Um Bongo - a rather refreshing fruit flavoured drink ?

Seeing as the Transfer window is closed till Jan, I’d be inclined to take the case to court ASAP and let an independent Legal Panel decide our fate - surely it should be resolved in the next 3 months and we’ll just carry on as best we can till then. 
 

I’m sorry, but there’s no way the attendance was only 22,000 today. I’m usually within 2-4 hundred out on judging the gate at Pride Park. Today I would guarantee there was somewhere just over 26,000 in the ground today. My ticket would not scan again today, neither did the people’s in front of me, so maybe that’s why tickets were not counted in the official Att figure ?

I’ve no idea why , but I have a horrible feeling in my water this morning that we will lose today - I sincerely hope I’m wrong !!! 

Well I like both of them and both of their styles too. It’s a very difficult job indeed - to be able to hear a live commentary away from home is always a privilege for me, so I’m happy whoever it is. 

For me, it’s a continual itch that needs to be scratched. I am as disappointed as anyone of where our club currently is. However, for me personally, it’s just something that is part of my DNA (a marketing dream) and it will never change. I will keep going to matches , as long as I’m able to.  I can only see me not going when I croak it.

Anyway, what else amI going to do ? ??

I suppose we might have to let him go if they agree to a 95% sell on clause !! ✍️?

Derby's two greatest CBs.

Not "two of". FTFY.

Well even if only for one season, I'd say Paul McGrath was as good and he was that buggered, he couldn't train and was also probably pissed as well, when he played ?

Well from what I saw yesterday, he has more understanding of his role as CB and how to actually defend, than what was on show in our team in the entirety of last season. 
If I was thinking of which players to sign from our ‘trialists’, then unfortunately I’d let Wisdom go elsewhere, because a) we have enough cover at RB, b) He’ll be on the maximum wage within EFL allowances and most importantly, he’s not very good at CB imo 

- it will also allow us to pick up a better option fit the squad from the trialists ?

It amazes me that people are critically focusing on Cashin’s height - As far as I saw yesterday, there was only one header he didn’t get near and that was because he was slightly out of position and misjudged it. He has very good heading ability and can get up much higher than than I had envisaged. He’s physically very strong and goes in hard when tackling. but beautifully timed. 
Comments about his height are farcical, when you consider two of Derby’s greatest CB’s were Todd at 5’9’’ and McFarland at 5’11’’ respectably - relatively structurally disadvantaged too !!
