Deal! 👍

We'll be reet. ... but I daren't risk a prediction! 👀

Not quite, as a neutral ground was suggested, so no advantage finishing 5th over 6th. If the higher placed team was to get a home tie, then you'd be bang on.

With respect... 😉

Almost time...

Good news for yer... should all be done & dusted by 14:30! 👍 #Don't be late

At 61, my life is very much geared to a happy/successful retirement... Marriage and hobbies in particular, but also health, social life, family etc. The problem for me lies solely on the financial side. All the above can only continue with my current income (and a bit of savings), so I really don't envisage retiring any time soon! (House is basic at best, but has been long paid for, and tidy enough, so we have that security at least, I guess.) I was always very blasé about private pensions etc... In truth, with my family history/genes, I truly didn't expect to be here this long! (Both mum & dad failed to reach their 50's!). Just my luck I'm as fit as a fiddle! 🤣 Hey. I'm very much a "Take each day as it comes/what will be will be" kind o' guy, and that ain't gonna change now, so I'll plod on, and see what happens. Best of luck to all of you who have retired recently and/or are about to. I won't call you lucky, as I'm sure you've earned it, but I won't deny there's a teeny bit of envy/regret creeping in now I'm almost "at that age"! (But only on this subject... no regrets elsewhere!) Enjoy... yer owd buggers! 😁🍻

Wait! WTF! You offer tickets to watch you and your mates "exchanging favours in pub toilets"? 😲 ...Or do I need to go back and read that again? 🤷‍♂️

Think they may have to tweet their goodbyes after tea, mate. There's an illegal pitch invasion afoot, from what I'm reading! 👀

Same old Eurotunnel now booked for 1st June. Same old France the expected final destination. ... But a whole new, previously unexplored region... Alsace! Chocolate-box villages and all! *Unless the last minute weather forecast is crap, (and better elsewhere). In which case, we'll head somewhere else! Gotta love semi-planned and unbooked campsite holidays in France, where you can just rock up, pitch the tent, and do whatever yer want!

I see you refer to "the precise moment that a gap appears between the foot and the ball" (i.e. when contact twixt foot and ball is completed.) I'd argue it needs to be when that gap first disappears... when foot first makes contact with said ball, and thus before all compressions are effected. Firstly, that would occur sooner, thus giving the "advantage" to the attacker. And secondly, I'm a complete arse, and just wanted to pooh-pooh your theory for the craic! Either way, we need to add more cameras, more eyes in the shed at the bottom of the garden, more monitors, some "infra-red tangent threads" (Patent pending) on the ball, and some sort of beeper that marries the ball contact with the attacker's position. Oh... and more time for the experts to digest the given information before confirming to the excited audience whether they have just witnessed a goal... or not! Simples!

Just so you know, it ain't cool to bear grudges. It ain't mature to swear in public. It ain't uplifting to dwell on previous negatives. It is not sagacious to disrespect the hierarchy. But come Saturday, from 90:00 and throughout the additional minutes... with the resuscitated Rams on the verge of a new life... throw all that in the bin, and let's give 'em the rousiest, passionest, Black & Whitest, most heartfeltest rendition of "They docked us 21 points..." British football has ever... EVER... witnessed. To hell with dignity! 🐏

Paramedics called. ✔️ Rushed to A&E. ✔️ Transferred to ICU. ✔️ Went into a coma. ✔️ Had the last rites read. ✔️ Switching off life support considered and rejected. ✔️ Miraculous recovery evident. ✔️ Derby County Death Party cancelled. ✔️ Recovery continues to improve at a quite remarkable rate. ✔️ Currently sitting in the despatch lounge, awaiting transport home. ✔️ Bit of delay... should hopefully be home by Saturday... TBC. 🙏 Welcome home party provisionally booked for Saturday evening. All welcome. Bring several bottles. 🍾🍾🍾 #we're on our way

I did consider it. If I have more time later... 🤣

Oh! Happy birthday to my Derby County fan career. #my first game. 🐏 #I woz conned 🤣

Well, I bet you feel a right tit now! 🙄 🤣👍

Word on the trentside guttervines is that Everton had already bunged the on-pitch ref, so no need! 👀

I initially thought (before seeing replays later) that that bamford Bamford (before he was a bamford) dived in the deforestation game. I'd let them have that one back if it wasn't for the fact it would take Bryso's hat-trick away... and 5-0 has a certain ring to it... and meh, feckham anyway!

Bread roll for you maybe. Some of use a baguette! 🤓 EDIT: No, not baguette... the other french one... petit pain, is it? 😕

They could get around that last problem by actually implanting the tracker to the precise centre of the player's body. A bit like A fantastic voyage, but without the "4 men and a beautiful girl"... https://www.google.com/search?q=fantastic+voyage+film&source=lmns&tbm=vid&bih=742&biw=1536&hl=en-GB&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjqlubylNSFAxXKTaQEHbYBDNAQ0pQJKAF6BAgBEAQ#fpstate=ive&vld=cid:27e70649,vid:dO5E4wkg0hA,st:0

Sorry mate, was miles away... What did yer say?

They've beaten you to it...

Just seen the neville reaction... was gonna post similar thoughts on these so-called "options" that florets are apparently considering. I'm assuming there's also an option to resign/withdraw themselves from the EPL with immediate effect? Regardless of my own allegiances, I would stand shoulder to shoulder with red dogs world wide, if this is the stance they wish to take. Bring it on, brothers! That'll learn 'em!
