Why don't we gazump them and sign the young lad up? https://www.watfordfc.com/magazine/features/getting-to-know-james-collins

Wasn't it the 1986 World Cup when the England fans were singing "Two Trevor Stevens - there's only two Trevor Stevens"? A contender for best footy chant of all time, and one we could replicate!

Gary Stevens, not Trevor

Wanted by Shrewsbury. It's not like we are short of strikers so let him go 😎

Signed.

Spot on. Wilson was sold to Ipswich, and Arthur signed Gregory, Micklewhite, George Williams and Ross MacLaren with the money.

If Warney pulls that off this month then he is truly Midas.

I think Gregory, Micklewhite, George and MacLaren are a bit past it now.

Ahhh yes. A man who bleeds black and white, who was part of the march to save the club. Spends about £50 million of his own money to sell a couple of young lads for about £4 million quid.

 

 

Ok I'll hold my hands up and admit that was an initial over-reaction by me because I was grumpy with the news and how long  I was having to wait in the barbers.

My point is though, we would've sold our two most prized assets and chances are we won't be allowed to spend a fee to replace them.

If true, it’s starting to look like the club is being asset stripped.

According to the bookies they’ll be relegated and with an 8 point deficit and probably losing this first match will find it very hard to recover those points. They’ve lost most of their good players, several taking advantage of the non paid wages problem to up sticks and walk so no transfer fees. The ones they are stuck with are the high paid players nobody else wants to buy like Charlie Wyke who still can’t do 90 minutes after his heart problems. Most of their signings are freebies as the embargo prevents them paying fees but their new owner, although a billionaire intends to run the club sustainably so I would expect the best they can hope for is survival. It’s not easy when you’re adrift at the bottom and every game seems to add more pressure. The bookies don’t often get it wrong and I don’t think they have with Wigan and it will be a struggle for them.

William Hill have Wigan mid table and Oddschecker about 17th. Not seeing any relegation mentioned.

Gone to Carlisle on loan. Surely he'd have been an ideal loan signing for us?

Leeds 1996-7 first game of the season

Correct. Just the year required, not the season.

2. Year and opponents please

I’ve done the double. Would give them both 7/10. 

I'm just going to put a shameless plug to my football predictions competition on here, as some of you seem to enjoy my trivia posts.

Full details are in the Football chat forum. It only takes ten minutes to complete and already over 60 people have entered but I anticipate 100+ by deadline day (Saturday August 5th). I have several entries from DCFC fans and would love to have more.  Cheers

Thanks for the generous 👏 @admira and @Reggie Greenwood but I checked my answer after I posted it and all I will say is that it could be improved upon! 🤣

Sorry yes I should’ve made it clear, you’re half right! 

Hi. So here is my new daily challenge!

As the title says, just name the year (not the season) AND the opponents from the line-up, score, and scorer.

A nice easy one to start.

So this time last season we hadn't signed either of our forward loans. Perhaps a few are panicking a little early?

The season started a year ago today I think so Dobbin signed  after that. 

PW suggested we couldn’t get any loans on until the big boys have finalised their squads. 

it does feel like we are cutting it fine. Can anyone recall when the likes of Dobbin, Osula, Roberts etc joined us last season?

One week until the deadline! 

Numbers up 71% compared to this time last year. Keep ‘em coming!

524. Current club not displayed. The managerial career of an ex Rams manger.

Well, this day had to come sometime. Over the past 19 months I've covered every possible ex Ram player from the 'modern' era, several managers and a couple of the current squad but have now exhausted the options.

I'm having the weekend off and then have an idea for something else. Thanks to all of you who have joined in, it was hard to catch anyone out as the Rams fans are so knowledgeable. I think Floyd Streete was about the only one that I had to reveal.
