Ghost of Clough

My Dad would by loads of sweets for me and/or my brother at the train station before the game. I guess that helped keep our bums on the seats for the entirety of the game 😅

I was taken to my first game aged 4 - the first 'official' home game at PP against Barnsley.

I still can't see City going anywhere under Pep. Especially when he buys average players for top dollar. I very much doubt they'll even finish top 4 this season. I'll be glad to be proven wrong though

With whatever's left over going to Olympiakos*

I imagine a considerable amount of the fee will go to Peterborough

Are Davis and Ollson new signings?

B, B and A in that order. I'd sell one of them if a decent offer came in

Appearances in all competitions in the last 6 seasons (most recent first)... 29, 3, 22, 35, 33, 0 So that's actually an average of 20.3 games a season. Plus, 33 games for England since the start of 2011. Not quite as bad as 10

And the deadwood aren't even good enough to get into a failing team

Who said anything about last season? Which player has scored more goals in total for Derby than Martin?

Bit slow He'll be worth 15m if he shows any half decent form this season

Can't even beat Burton to signings now. We're doomed to relegation this season...

"Gone backwards since the end of last season"?! When your outs are Hughes (hardly featured under Rowett) and Camara (hardly featured.) it's hard to go backwards. We've signed Davies and Wisdom who are massive improvements on who they're replacing in the first team - Pearce and Baird. Conclusion: Stronger now than the end of last season

Maybe Simpson will get a promotion?

Can't see the FA extending Boothroyd's contract in July.
