  1. Oh, I hear you mate, and I know where you're coming from (No, not Eccles, yer pillock!) but I can't help wondering if he might be arranging "The best way to go up", in a perfect scenario kind of way. When you're as confident in the positives as what B4 was, I wouldn't put it past him! 😉 ... and besides... You can't deny that glorious rainbow arch finale wouldn't be the icing on the cake for the lad. I think we'd all be beaming for him... or WITH him, more like! 😁 🐏🍻👍
  2. Ooh... now... I'm thinking Wembley... I'm thinking Wembley Arch... I'm thinking how great would that be! Probably not a cat in hell's chance of it happening, of course, but it's still brought me out in goosebumps! 🐏 For a tough guy, I can be such a softy at times! 👀
  3. After a little dig by CM18 on Cashin (If I recall?) Did my eyes deceive me, or did the ref call over their captain to tell CM to cut it out or else? 🤷‍♂️ I remember thinking "How very rugby-ref"! Is this now a footy thing, and how long as this been going on?
  4. Hate myself for saying this... Immediately after that divine flick by NML... IF Sibley had not "Stayed on his feet" etc, etc... 👀 I know! I KNOW! Thankfully, it didn't cost us in the end... and I'm off to spend the rest of the day sat in the corner with my hands on my head! 😢
  5. When this thread was started (03/10/23), we were 7th. 8pts behind leaders Pompy (sic) with a game in hand. Today, we stand in 6th place. Still 8pts behind the leaders (Now Bolton), but have reduced the gap to Pompy (sic v.2) to 6pts. No game in hand now, in fairness, but it's points on the board that actually matter! That oh-so slight "Coming for you" has taken 7 games (for us) thus far. My batteries have gone in my calculator, so I've no idea whether that rate of improvement is enough to achieve "the target", (when extrapolating to the season's end) or whether we have to up our game, but let's just say... on a technicality at least, our hero B4 is sort of on the right lines. Let's keep hoping, keep praying, and keep being a bit more B4. 🐏
  6. I too wasn't looking for them... but I heard them. I agree, it didn't warrant booing in my book (But then it never does, as I don't!!). I'd also agree that, by the volume (of the boos), numbers were low, in comparison to the overall attendance figures. As for your comments re Paul Warne's Derby Army... Apparently, those that do like to boo have oft been advised to boo at HT and/or FT, and leave the in-game noises to be positive, so maybe it could be argued they "did it right"? If there is a right way to boo, that is? I'm not convinced, myself. 🐏
  7. Cheers Angie. I thought they must do, as I've seen references to waiting lists, and tickets miraculously reappearing on sale etc. But also thought I'd spotted reference to "non-refundable" on the ticket site. I must have imagined the latter! 👍
  8. On that note... Am I right in thinking these tickets are "Non-Refundable"? In which case, how could one return them to the club? Is selling them on "The only option"? 🤷‍♂️ *I've just checked... There are no away tickets currently on sale for me to verify my comments above. Regular away fans would know though, yeah? 🤷‍♂️
  9. Was gutted we missed that great chance in the 37th minute! I was literally praying to the heavens at that point... and I haven't even spoken to God since about 1968, when the infant school headmistress told me to! So pleased we ground it out in the end, and got those 3 points for B4. 🐏 A great effort all round by us clappers, I thought. Went really well... although as soon as I sat back down, I had to explain to the querying guy behind what it was all about. I just find it weird that there are folk in the stadium that don't come on here! 🤣 I didn't cry obviously, being such a tough guy, but yeah, there was very much a lump in my throat... and a hint of a smile as I looked up. I hope he was reet chuffed! xxx I'm tempted to say I hope I have that many applauding when I go, but knowing my luck, that will be as soon as they get the news, and a bit scattered, not the planned concerted effort of respect we saw today! 🤣 I was secretly hoping for a minute's worth of "#BeMoreB4" flickering around the electro-hoardings, but then forgot to look, as I was too concentrated on looking up'ards! Not seen anyone comment, so I assume this didn't happen? Shame, but fair enough, I guess! Great to hear B4 got a mention on the commos though. I too would absolutely love to hear a re-run, if there's such a thing out there? And of course, as well as Daniel himself, I truly hope the family... and particularly our new mate @B4’s Sister... were touched and proud of the response... as it was no less than he deserved. 👏 He was a top guy then, he's a top guy today, and he'll remain a top guy for eternity. Sleep well buddy. UTR xxx
  10. Remember folks... clapping is crap with yer gloves on! #be less gloved, forra minute. xxx
  11. If that's aimed at me... I know exactly what he's getting at. I was being sarcastic! My gif was aimed at @Ilkestonian mincing his words/beating about the bush/sitting on the fence. I was suggesting he should man up, come straight out with it/grow a pair/Say what's on his mind etc! By his reaction, he got it! 😉😁👍
  12. Just logged on, and Someone has gone and left the cake out in the rain. I don't think that I can take it, 'Cause it took so long to bake it, And I'll never have that recipe again.
  13. That's a bit harsh mate. He was a damn sight better than that Peter Purvis fella!
  14. There's also a manned(*) wheelchair access(**) door immediately after Greggs, so by the first North Stand turnstiles (23-28?) walking from the club shop. *I know... it may well be a woman... I appreciate that... and I have absolutely no problem with that... aside from the terms "Womanned" and/or "Personned" sounding utterly horrendous when I say them back in my head! 👀 **No idea... I just copied what @angieram wrote! 👀👀
  15. If we have to lose, I'm not sure I can be arsed to try and set out my most preferred way of doing so.
  16. If it wasn't for the fact this was quelled in the past day or so, it'd be rendered irrelevant. I'm all for romance, and It was a nice emotionally charged idea at the time, but given the timescale involved to reach this decision, the right decision was made. Rooney himself reputedly... and fairly... responded thus: "The Freedom of Derby? Was I meant to get the Freedom of Derby?” said Rooney. “I had a great time at Derby under difficult circumstances. I never expected to get the freedom of the place. I respect the football club, I respect the fans, but there are a lot more people who deserve the Freedom of Derby more than I do.” Too true, Wayne. Cheers, 'n all that. 👍

  18. 1/ Bung the jailer £100 to let you out for the day. 2/ Hire a private jet 3/ Wear thermal underwear. #noexcuses! 😉🐏
  19. I think it's a simple matter of their former stadium (Eastville) being next to the gas works. Nothing exciting. or profound.
  20. I saw what you did there! Savage! 😉😁🐏
  21. Yeah. I hear you, and I accept your thought process, but rightly or wrongly, I just see other L1 clubs. No better or worse than us, come opening day of the season. This division has had the likes of Wendies, Ipswich, Sunderland et all over recent seasons, and most of them take more than a season or two to threaten a promotion place. The 3 teams that come down next will come down for a reason. Most likely for football reasons, and they'll be down here "on merit"! Every team, every season, are a threat. 🐏
  22. Just wanted to welcome you to the forum, Mr Park. Sorry I cannot help with your query though, as I haven't got a clue how to do it.
