Two hours to train time!
Not sure how I feel, really. So much at stake. It’s the Derby way.

OMG its still only Friday - what are your plans? How will you get to sleep? How can we make it go quicker? Or are you savouring it? 
Couldnt sleep last night but doing an A-Z of Derby players then really helped. Only got to N. 
Think I'm overly excited as didnt think could go tomorrow then Mr CBR sacrificed himself to accompany Baby CBR to offer holder day. 3 alarms already set. Aaargghhh!!

I'm ok until the seal is broke!!!

I think the music choices have been okay TBF.
Yes, it’s loud but we’re all old gits in our area and toes are tapped. 
I might have one drink before the game but no more than that.
 I like to focus on the play, not abuse the opposition with a vocabulary of about ten words, most of them involving defecation of some kind or another.

 

If fans can’t get up for this game without a beer it’s a sad state of affairs.
Save the drinking for after the game.
I’ll have Smithers chilling the Chateau Lafite! 😊

Don’t forget to stretch them first.

I think Warne is trying to make everyone part of Saturday’s excitement.
Training with ‘the lads’ will boost their spirits and make them feel part of a winning
 We can’t risk having players on the bench who aren’t fully fit. If a forward gets injured after ten minutes would either Gayle or TJJ be able to play 80?
I don’t think so.
Shame, because the two Ws play like, well two Ws.
 

This was a good year.

An interesting few weeks ahead to say the least. For the first time in a long while we will be able compete without the shackles of an EFL business plan and it'll be interesting to see who we are looking at. Presumably there will still be two lists, one for L1 and one not. My hunch is that we'll see the profile begin to change and perhaps some younger players with potential, rather than older players with proven pedigree.
I do agree with some of the posts on here pointing out that there's some very good young players in L1 and perhaps we might see fit to five a few a go at a higher level, assuming all goes well on Saturday. Some who have caught my eye in recent weeks include Chris Forino at Wycombe, Paris Maghoma at Bolton, the aforementioned Harrison Burrows at Posh and Karamoko Dembélé at Blackpool, though I'd love to see us spreading the net and brining in two or three from foreign leagues, where I'm sure there must be some good value for money to be had.

I'm presuming that Curtis Nelson will get his POTS award pitchside pre-game? That's worth turning up early for, imo. 

He’s just too good to be true 
Can’t take our eyes off Ebou
Du-du, du-du, du, du, du,du etc
