    TuffLuff got a reaction from DarkFruitsRam7 in End of season celebrations.   
    Ended flitting between pubs after the game on Saturday but just wanted to say how brilliant it was to be apart of the atmosphere. Five Lamps rammed, the dualling chants between Silk Mill and the Dolphin, The Exeter probably being the best in Derby and The Smithfield’s quite excellent beer range. All pubs full of happy Derby fans. Just wanted to make it to Bustler and Brunswick before the train but think it would have tipped me over the edge, but it sounded like Bustler had a fantastic night. You can say what you want about Derby, but not many cities have the amount of decent pubs in walking distance that we do. Also helped spread everyone out rather than having thousands in one spot.
    All the credit to the staff in all establishments I went to who got everyone served and kept their bar queues down too, not easy but should be appreciated.

    TuffLuff got a reaction from Steve How Hard? in Paul Warne   
    I think the one thing that was maybe missing from Saturday was Warne and the staff having their moment with the fans. Thing is I can’t work out whether that’s a good or bad thing either!
     
    I think to me, and I don’t want to go too OTT because I get why, but I just found Warne’s interviews very flat and a bit like he’d separated himself away from it all. Whether the celebrations at the end just gave him the chance to keep away from it all I don’t know, but I hope in some way we as fans can show our appreciation to the management at some point.

    To be honest though mate I think we’ve all felt like that over one topic on this forum, the unfortunate truth is we’ve all been the person rounding up on someone else too. Although I think it’s got a little worse since the admin year because everyone was more active and living through every twist, I just think it’s part of forum life. You’ll  write a throwaway post and it’ll be analysed within an inch of its life, you’ll write five long paragraphs explaining your view in a balanced way and no one will engage except one poster who still hasn’t got the point of what you’ve said. Again, it’s what it is.
    We are all over precious about what we say, I really try nowerdays to make my point on something and let it go. It might not help debate but it helps not having to explain something over and over. Also I think we sometimes just have to admit we were wrong sometimes. I’ve criticised Warne, Bird, Wilson and a whole load more things at different times this season but I’ve also had to admit on here they’ve all proved me wrong at some point too. We all have a right to an opinion but we also have to put our arms up sometimes too.

    TuffLuff got a reaction from Comrade 86 in Ebou Adams - Joined on loan until end of the season   
    Cardiff have no players out of contract in Adams position this summer and there are four players currently signed to his position.
    Looking at Adams’ age and everything else, was he loaned out to gain fitness or to put him in the shop window? 
    Hope it all gets sorted quickly!

    I think it comes under their ethos of not allowing themselves to get too high or too low.
    They will feel vindicated having achieved promotion but will also want to prove they are more than League One experts.
    So, whilst feeling mightily relieved I suspect it’s a case of preparing for next year and letting the players have their moment.
    Also quite difficult hugging someone you know is on this summer’s kill list.
