    I'd think us oldies ought to appreciate it even more, we don't know how many more chances to celebrate life we've got! 
    And not all the naysayers are old - that there @Millenniumram is a kid, but he's a right miserable bugger! 😉
    Anyway, just wanted to say I'm loving it and know plenty more who know how to live in the moment and enjoy it.
    COYR!

    I'm not sure Peterborough would rest anyone against Bolton regardless of their midweek result - they'll be pushing for 3rd as a minimum for the playoff advantages it brings...
    COYR - let's do the job ourselves though, let the rest sort the playoffs out between themselves

    Biggest thing to come out of today is that P’borough and Bolton haven’t scored a hatful.

    Hi All,
    Don't really post much but I thought some of you might like to see these film photos I got at Pride Park. Hoping to get down and do this again sometime. Fingers crossed when we're in the championship next season. Let me know what you think.

    Derby County v Blackpool

    This camera was my Dad's (Also a big derby fan, he's on here somewhere) and had been sitting in the loft for years before getting a new lease of life. It's an Olympus OM1 if anyone cares, think it's from the 80s. Shot on Ilford XP2 film.

    A few also up on instagram and some other photos if anyone wants to see.

    I used to love doing photography and working with black and white. There’s just something far more majestic about it.

    Probably the best away support I’ve seen at Fratton park this season. Draw was probably a fair result and I’d have taken that if you offered it to me before the game.
     
    Safe journey back gents if you’re heading back tonight. I have a four hour plus drive to Norfolk now 🤣🙊.

    The title doesn’t really bother me, nobody really remembers who won the league, the key is getting out of the division and whether that’s 1st or 2nd, I’ll be just as happy.
    An ideal world for me would be if we went into the final game 3 points clear and something like 10 goals GD better than 3rd.
    Basically a situation where unless we lost to Carlisle 6-0, we’re up. A full house at Pride Park, early kick-off in some late April sunshine, then the whole afternoon to celebrate. Perfect.

    Dai Capp reacted to Jram in Paul Warne   
    It’s difficult because it’s tempting to lump all the people commenting negatively about Warne into one group which is perhaps unfair.
    However, in general it strikes me that everyone comes out so angry and negative when we lose and/or play badly and the amount cognitive bias is insane. We haven’t played that badly in that many games and we have won a number of games quite convincingly this season. 
     
    However, it is League 1. The pitches are bad, the players are quite bad (even the better players) and the tactics of a lot of teams are frequently to try and destroy football rather than create nice football. 
     
    We have been unable to recruit a replacement for Collins (Gayle hasn’t really had a go yet though) so inevitably that will have an impact. Personally I think we’ve got away with not signing another centre back as well. 
     
    From where im standing it seems that, if people took a minute to be remotely rational, they’d realise Warne is doing quite a good job. Not just in terms of league position but even in some performances and the recruitment has been pretty good given the constant contraints. 
     
    Of course I have criticisms. The main one is the lack of academy minutes but I’ll give him the benefit this season as the current generation was gutted during admin so that may change in coming years.

    I hope Warne hasn’t had a hand in selecting the kit. Anything like his transfer dealings or tactics and it will be rubbish

    Lovely bit if determination considering he's only here on loan. 
    Hopefully there is a chance we can bring him in on a permanent in the summer, I've been impressed with the little bit I've seen of him.

    Dai Capp reacted to StaffsRam in Max Bird - flew the coop to Bristol City, loaned to us to end of season   
    Not really sure how long folks expect Max to hang around. He's a decent young player who needs to start making his mark at a higher level sooner rather than later otherwise he's going to find a good chunk of his career done and he's in the third tier.
    This season was a real opportunity to get ourselves out of this sh** league while it's relatively weaker. Next season will be harder re competition, and with so many players out of contract in the summer we're looking at another near-full team rebuild, which will bring the obligatory "the new players need time to gel" factor. So from Max's perspective you can probably write off next season as well.
    For those comparing Derby and Bristol, I'm sorry, but the foreseeable there is no comparison, they're a much better prospect. Yes, eventually they'll re-find their level, and so will we, but for the immediate future if you're a young player looking to push on it's like chalk and cheese.

    As an Owls fan, one who used to watch Derby a bit too, I hope this gets settled pronto.
     
    Smudge hit 20 for Wednesday last season, and was instrumental in Rotherham's promotion the year before, but he's totally wrong for Roehl's style. The only way he plays is if everyone else is injured.
     
    Chansiri isn't only thick, he's also stubborn. Even if Derby increase what they're offering, it isn't going to make any difference to the money needed for the level of recruitment Wednesday need.
     
    It's posturing, as was the threat to withhold funds and the threat of an embargo when he tried to tap the fans up.
