    I don't think people who are so positively ecstatic with the way things are currently going at DCFC got to become so positively ecstatic by frittering away monthly bonuses to their employees!   👀

    I do see, and mostly agree with the point.
    I'm just not sure the second hand Vauxhall Astra we have secured has got quite the right spec., certainly for a 4 year finance deal. Indeed I would suggest that although badged as an SE, our model is a little more basic than we might have hoped for, and is struggling to adapt to a different type of environment. The steer is a little heavy and restrictive, and there seems to be problems getting it out of 3rd gear. Lets be honest, its not a pretty car either, although I accept beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Now, that all said it is far too early to be categoric it's not going to do its job. Its a solid, broadly dependable car, and perhaps if its ultimate owner could give it a home start service, it will become a lot more desirable not unlike its performance when warmed-up on longer travels. Perhaps an oil change too, for smoother transition. A bit of tinkering here and there might just be enough, and I think the vast majority of us hope the same. However, personally, I think its nice to dream that perhaps before the 4 years are out our fortunes are such that we might be eager to seek an an upgrade, hopefully something a little more modern and nippy. Something not too disimmilar maybe from that Mazda MX5 we had before. Risky car that, not everybody's type I acknowledge, but I do think it might have given us a bit more fun and reward if we had held on to it a bit longer.

    Mucker1884 reacted to Stive Pesley in Monopoly go   
    My favourite things about Monopoly
    If no one ever buys a property, everyone gets richer and no one loses.
    but even better than that -  if you do buy property but share each colour equally among the players so that nobody has an actual monopoly, everyone just travels around paying each other less than what they earn from passing go, and the bank eventually runs out of money.
    Makes you think eh?

    Perhaps There (should be) a kind of hush all over the forum because For all we know we’re Hurting each other. On the Rainy days and Mondays many of us just seem to want Yesterday once more. It won’t be long before we’re Top of the world again. We’ve only just begun after all.

    Properly get pelters for this as 80% seem to have made their mind up over Warne, but anyone else just had enough with the constant negativity towards the players and staff? It’s relentless.
    Even after last nights win I’m seeing people try and twist it negatively, overall last night we played faster tempo had chances and won end off, so why the negativity?
    Warnes come out and said last night about blocking outside noise out, really think knocking them will help? It’ll only make it worse, 5 in 11 for Collins decent return, what’s booing him and giving him stick going to do? Why can’t we get behind them? We’re in league 1 we won’t have world beaters that will do everything so perfectly. 
     
    1 defeat in 10 due to some terrible refereeing it’s not anywhere near as bad as people are making out, it’s as if we’ve won 1 in 10.
    I can be as negative as anyone and as annoyed as anyone when we drop points etc but it’s the bigger picture move on we go again, It’s not an easy league like people expect, Sunderland sheff united Ipswich Bolton etc all got stuck for time, and probably only Bolton started in a worse rebuild situation as us… 
    it’s absolutely draining all the constant ‘get him gone’ ‘whose next’ ‘he’s just a P.E teacher’ I’ve missed 1 away game and 1 home and it’s honestly making me not want to go, Blackpool people singing ‘warne your football is sh*t’ then 5 minutes later singing his name, honestly think if people stop over reacting and seemingly wanting Warne to fail we could get out of this league this year. Rant over roll on the draining stick that’ll come…

    Yeah I'd love this - it would be great if those who have received beer mats (and are happy with them) could post an Etsy review, thank you.

    I'm reliably informed that Etsy doesn't let you post review for a few days after you've got your item... so maybe a task for this weekend when Derby aren't playing!

    Ok. I could probably figure this out myself, but I thought it might be fun for others to help me out. 
     
    I bought a t-shirt for my son and I wondered if someone could name all the Derby players that are on it (depicted as Subbuteo figures!) ….

    And remember folks...
    Etsy Shop owners rely heavily on favourable reviews for other potential customers to take note of, so if you've any positive comments to make after purchasing, don't just limit them to these pages!
    😉👍

    Because the tickets were sold in blocks, I was amongst our more regular away supporters to the left of the halfway line. There was a great atmosphere, singing throughout and no abuse. I had a good night.
    It's unfortunate when you end up surrounded by idiots, and I've had my share at other games this season.

    Mucker1884 got a reaction from Walkley Ram in Is Warne plotting a cunning plan   
    I'd say that's an over exaggeration myself.
    Yeah, there's certainly a lack of feel good vibes around the stadium on a matchday.  Hardly a crackle or a fizz amongst us, let alone a buzz.
    But there's very little evidence of toxicity from where I sit... but I hasten to add that's in the more gentler climes of the NE corner, close to what is affectionally referred to as "The family stand", so maybe worse elsewhere? 
     
    If I'm honest, I do think some on here are a little naïve in thinking Rams staff (Players, Coaches, even the main man himself) don't ever peruse these (and similar) publicly accessible pages.  I refuse to believe that... rightly or wrongly.  I just believe that it's human nature to be curious about what folk are saying about us, even if we'd never admit to that.
    So maybe they are picking up any negative vibes from here... and other less well mannered internet sources, of course?  
    I don't frequent the place myself, but I'd be astounded if there was no toxicity on Xwatter, or whatever it's called now.  🤷‍♂️
    I don't think it's an in-ground-live-on-a-matchday thing though... not yet, at least!
