  1. -1 for a start! Technically, I could make it, but I'm up at 3am Wednesday heading for an early Eurotunnel, 6 hours driving, and a 36kg tent to put up in the bamford rain (As the forecast currently predicts!) IF we were doing ok, I'd have still made the effort, and put up with minimal sleep. Be that results/league position/recent form/attractive/entertaining football etc. As we're a little short on all points just lately, I'll not be bothering. There's simply not enough on offer to tempt me tomorrow night, all things considered. As it stands, I'm nowhere near the point I was at under Young Nigel's reign towards the end, so I'm currently still planning on turning up on cold winter nights to come... "Currently", I said! 😉 Here's to me missing an absolute cracker, and regretting such a stupid half-fan decision! 🐏
  2. I've been more than eager enough to "give him time". I was thinking "At least until Christmas, with a review at that stage". I'm still happy to hang on in there, even missing out this season... as long as we definitely go up next season... which of course, comes with major if not catastrophic potential risks! 😲 I therefore appreciate there are massive flaws to such a plan... potentially at least. As a fan, I'm now getting twitchy, whilst appreciating the fact it ain't me who makes the decisions!

  4. That's just weird! A queue of suitors a mile long would not detract from the fact that it was DC who did the stepping in and saving. It's irrelevant who was stood in the wings. Nobody is claiming it was DC or bust! *If Wildsmith saves a penalty, would you claim it was untrue because Vickers was on the bench?
  5. Dear @angieram Ouch! regards Mr P Warne
  6. Was that a scuff for the second, or a rather clever (and extremely cheeky) little dink? I suspect the latter, and I like it! 😁
  7. Well, I hear your bus was 4mins late, so maybe try a taxi next time?
  8. The last of the survivors. 😢 Sleep well, Sir Bobby. xxx
  9. Thanks for this mate. Can't have enough threads on the same theme, I say. It's what sets this forum apart from the others. 🙄
  10. THAT march... THAT bicycle kick equaliser... THAT all-for-one spirit... THAT fight 'til the end... seems a lifetime away already! 🐏
  11. This ain't the time for naked protests mate. It's getting chilly out there!
  12. Quite. ... but the mistake to which you are admitting to was... albeit by the grace of hindsight. Imagine... he holds fire... and in 2.5 years from now, Warnes scrapes us through the luckiest PO final ever...yep, even luckier than QPR. On a technicality, DC could then claim it was a wise decision all along. Viva la patience, and all that! He may well be hoping against hope. He may well live to regret it... but it is his only hope for now! I wouldn't like to call it... I don't know anywhere near enough about the man, our saviour. 🐏
  13. If DC sacks him now, is that a sign that he'd already made a bad business decision, by bringing Warne in in the first place? I suspect it would... and I suspect this is in the back of DC's mind. The only chance (however slim) DC has of proving this appointment to have been a good decision is if he holds fire for now... and keeps his fingers well and truly crossed! Scary s***, innit! 😲
  14. Couldn't have been that decent, if he was offside! 👀
  15. We're "just off Beaufort Street", and on the very edge of the flood plain (just inside the "Middle-of-the-street" boundary line, which affects our home insurance premiums!) (The houses opposite are slightly higher, and rising). So basically Darley Park... Chester Green... Racecourse... then us. I have had about a dozen texts and auto calls this morning from "Floodline" warning of high alerts and "Danger to life". I don't recall ever seeing the racecourse flooded, in my 60 years of living locally, but I guess now they've put in those flood gate things to protect their precious council house, I should never say never!
  16. Pentagon within the past hour or so (Courtesy of a neighbour)...
  17. Technically, I'm gonna have to cheat, as @David is actually out of shot, as he came off about 200 yards back.
  18. deleted due to duplificationary reasons. Copy that?
  19. That's one heck of a connecting flight! Who the flock were you flying with! 😲
  20. Ahem... Allow me... 23rd Dec 2006? (A Saturday, according to Google). There was also one on Boxing Day 2012, but we lost that 2-0 https://www.11v11.com/teams/derby-county/tab/opposingTeams/opposition/Burnley/ https://www.11v11.com/matches/burnley-v-derby-county-23-december-2006-276267/
