    Dethorn reacted to TigerTedd in When was the last time we went 18 league matches without a win?   
    That’s a bit of a spurious stat though. 
    it’s like you’re trying to say we’ve never won a game with bielik. Apart from the 4 we won after he was injured.
    by coincidence John Gregory started all of those games. I’m sure you could probably find that someone random like wisdom did as well. 
    I don’t remember Gregory being a world beater, and tearing up too many trees. I think we just happened to win some games without Bielik, and he happened to be on the pitch. 
    so that says to me that we are capable of winning the odd game without bielik. Not many, but maybe enough to keep us from falling adrift before Bielik is back fit. 
    It’s unarguable that bielik is a beast, an absolute cut above anyone else we have to offer. But we’re not 100% hopeless without him. Just need a little bit more belief that it’s not a done deal, that we’re destined to lose til he comes back.

    Just realised that it's taken the Taliban less time to takeover Afghanistan than it's taking Mel to get someone to takeover Derby

    I’d replace Tom Lawrence with Jennifer Lawrence. Unlikely to be any major change in performance levels, or results, but shirt swapping at full time would cheer me up.

    Dethorn reacted to kevinhectoring in Oh no not Kazim-Richards!!   
    Is this right, that CKR is the solution ? Or would we be better off with Lawrence, Sibley, Ebesole and Stretton all linking beautifully in the final third, feeding off passes fizzed in by Morrison and Watson? 
    Don’t get me wrong, the guy is immense and I’m certainly sorry for him that he’s crocked. But we’ve got a core of really decent footballers and all this wardrobe target stuff has never really worked.  Problem is CKR does his bit so well it seems to be a good idea

    We did let Martin go though...which was our biggest loss in more than one way and seem to precede our spiral downhill.

    Dethorn got a reaction from LeedsCityRam in Fans not from Derbyshire...   
    Born in Gloucestershire in 1970
    Cannot remember choosing to support Derby but my parents tell me I was awestruck by Brian Clough's appearances on Midlands TV
    Dad is a Liverpool fan and Brother is a long time Man City fan
    First game was Cov away - lost 3-1 Nish put us one up I think in August 78
    Did not see any through my late teens and most of my 20's due to playing a bit myself
    Next game was when I could drive and we were in the last season in the baseball ground v Swindon - I think we won - I spoke to some Rams fans who showed me the way to bbg and then said away fans are round there because of my accent, which was great because we ahd had a lovely chat without me even realising they thought I was an away fan
    Since then got to Pride park and Ashton gate most years
    But honestly I really really want to give up - more about football in general than Derby to be honest - but they aren't helping ?

    Cannot help feeling there is something more to the Sibley story - I know he can be a bit hotheaded and gets booked, but he does have that bit of a spark about him.
    Bird looked great alongside Rooney, but a bit Flat since - and I so want him to do well.
    Knight has surprised me in a good way - but I get the feeling he could surprise me in the prem too - very much a workhorse (Emlyn Hughes anyone?)
    Festy like you say promising but I am most excited now about Watson - looked the canines nads to me the other night

    Come on man! It’s Ewey, not hard is it? a male sheep is a ram, hence ‘Rammie’, a female sheep is a ewe, and should be referred to as Ewey accordingly!

    Not sure that is aimed at me but if it is ....
    I do care - that is part of the problem.
    I have supported Derby since 1972
    I cannot give it up
    I have almost given Football up
    But I still care about Derby
    It is like an addiction
    As someone else alluded to - Derby county is a constant in my life - perhaps the only one
    I will not ever give it up completely - I do not want to
    Travel and Time are the reason I do not attend many games
    I think that makes me a valid forum user ?
