Looks class, that.
Bravo, DCFC.

... Although... if we ultimately fail in our endeavours to be promoted this season... would it be fair to remove Mr Warne's bobble hat, whilst simultaneously mumbling "If it wasn't for those pesky kids... etc... etc..."

I have the picture below(a lot bigger)tattooed across my back, But I don't go out shirtless so will be wearing a poppy on my lapel Sunday Morning at the Market place at 11am  

It's a good cause to give to but its also not a good lesson from history to criticise those not wearing a badge.
It's the mentality of forcing people to wear badges that we fought against in WW2. 
Not aimed at you just a response to a few posts on this matter. 
 
 

I wasn't going to say anything about the match as I am so late to the witch-hunt, having not had much of a phone signal in my little Devon hideaway. 
But I do think there's been some unnecessary hysteria on here over this result, mostly from people who only viewed it on TV and are therefore heavily influenced by the one-eyed narrative on ITV.
Due to the heavy rain the day before and that morning, the pitch was in a shocking state, the players warmed up in the corner in front of us and were slipping all over the place. It churned up the very corner of the pitch where Mendez-Laing makes his runs. His first run after kick-off you could hear the squish squelch with every step. I'm surprised he kept his boots on! 
The wind was swirling on and off as the showers rolled in, it was so difficult to predict, which is why Wildsmith wasn't making the halfway line with one kick to be promptly followed by a hoof into touch. He was also being abused by two of our own brain-dead fans.
People said Collins wasn't doing his job  of holding the ball, but he was being bear-hugged by their centre half all game. Likewise Dobbin and Osula, who nearly lost his shirt to a player on one occasion with no foul given. Funny how the ref missed all those but managed to 'see' Cashin's tug from fully thirty yards away and not even realising which player had committed the offence. 
I thought the Torquay crowd were fantastic, noisy and belligerent,  they definitely influenced the referee to give everything their way. 
Yet despite all that, I thought we'd been clinical enough to win the game until Cashin's unfortunate lapse of judgement. For those laying into him and suddenly calling him out as a bad player, he is in the League One team of the season, has barely put a foot wrong and has shown a responsibility for results that many senior players could learn from. There'll be no-one feeling worse about what he did than Cash himself.
The weather was at its worst after the sending off. The rain and wind were relentless, Warne took off our strongest player (no doubt thinking of tomorrow night) and didn't immediately strengthen our defensive midfield. I'm not sure it would have mattered anyway with the aerial onslaught that followed. When he did decide to act he brought on ball playing Hourihane and ratter Tommo over the head it and kick it style of Rooney - not his most astute substitutions, imo.
Even then we looked like we'd held on for the win until right at the death when the ref miraculously found that extra few seconds to allow them to create one last chance for their fairytale draw. Not good for a beleaguered Derby County squad but another win for the TV narrative. 
I thought our lads on that pitch were warriors on Sunday, and applauded every last one of them off the pitch. The invasion just before the finish was scary and the Torquay fan who squared up to Roberts right in front of us wants banning for life. Instead the BBC were putting out tweets celebrating the magic of the cup sparking pitch invasions with laughing emojis.
There is some bloody hypocrisy in football and I don't have to buy into it. You can choose for yourselves.

Hope that people not wearing the poppy donate to the poppy appeal, for the monies raised go for the ex forces personel who have been injured or having hard times through mental health, injured through war or struggling to come to terms with life in civi street, these are the people who have seved your country and need your help.
 

Zoom in, scan around, and don't just assume all poppies are the standard/obvious paper type, pinned to the outer left breast.
You might be pleasantly surprised.  ?

That's nonsense,  loads of us have poppy pins on our coats. Me and my husband included.
Were you at the game where the minute's silence was observed impeccablyby Rams fans (just some shouting from the Torquay end)?

It wasn’t aimed at most people, it was aimed at him cos I know that he can take it?

Nice of them to put the predicted score right in the middle of the image.

Thommo could still play.

You make that sound like bad news!
At least with your forewarning, I can at least prepare for the worst, just in case!  ?
Thanks for the heads up... unlike that nasty, thoughtless Mr @David! 

Pitch looks wet.

There’s something we need to tell you about Santa ….. ?

I remember when Blockbusters opened ?

It's disgraceful isn't it? I'm so shocked that I'm going down to Woolies to treat myself to a bag of Pick n Mix and then nip round to C&A for as new pair of polyester underpants.....

I don't know about fireworks, but they do say that at any given time, there is a notts forest-related bonfire happening somewhere around the world!
Usually in or around a bakery, obvs!  

Is that the breast you could do?  

Wait!  WHAT???? 
What is it with you this week?  First you just blurt it out that Elvis has died... with no consideration for people's sensitivities... Now this!  I'm stunned... Stunned, I tell yer!  When the hell did this happen?   ?

 
I just hope you don't blurt out any more shocking revelations between now and when Santa visits.  I doubt my heart will cope!
