Think this might be it - it allows him to shovel as much food in as he wants and yet he never needs to leave his 'seat'...

That would never take his weight...

Another great one. 🐏

Wildsmith made a couple of big blunders this season but aside from that has been very good. I would retain him and work more on his distribution. Even if we happen to bring someone in better, he'd make a great 2nd choice if he still wants to stick around.

I don’t mind what league we are in, I just want Derby to be competitive. I’ve enjoyed league one, but then I don’t like or watch premier league football, I’d rather watch non league 

Watching Florest getting beat almost every week has slightly increased my enjoyment and tolerance towards the Premier league. When they go down, I won't be watching.

I really don’t know. I’m gutted to have missed seeing it ☹️

It was mentioned by Owen on RamsTV during the game on 38 mins. Take a look 👍

I could see when he mentioned his dad, it almost tipped him over. Thanks Paul. Your dad would be very proud.

Watching at home, and I dunno why but at the end, with the crowd on the pitch..they panned over to Igor in the stands and he was filming it on his phone with this inscrutable look on his face. It just totally got me...😭

unfinished business

There you go B4 - onwards and upwards. You Rams 🐏 

. 

Florest to lose the next two; away at Everton and home to Man City while Luton beat Brentford at home and Wolves away to go 6 points clear of the trees with 3 games left. I really think it's possible. 🤞

Just got home early to find the missus in bed with two muscular hunks. Not a s*** day, just one to be expected...

This doesn't seem right to me. I think the lawyers of Burnley, Luton, Brentford and even Everton should be rallying for this to be reviewed. 

Smelly fishy.

Recall Brown, get Gayle in, get Wash and Waggy back fit. Give Sibley more in the final third. Shop around for another out of contract - tall holding striker. 

Absolutely woeful, atrocious 96 mins. Insult to football. I guess in the grand scheme of things it matters a jot but still turn up and give it a go. Your profession demands it. Disgraceful performance. Utter cobblers. 

My sincere condolences to B4's family, friends and all on this forum - he has clearly touched a lot of lives, upsetting news to read. It will certainly be a different forum without him. 

0-2 😔

Absolutely take your point - and I hope you’re right! I would definitely take Eustace.

Just not sure it is realistic. You have to wonder what we could offer any manager 💰 wise, too. 

Think we are more likely to get someone who has been out of work for a while as opposed to going up-and-coming managers like Eustace and Beale.

I saw that after leaving Derby Wayne applied for a degree course in law then jacked it in when the offer from DC United came in.

Imagine facing a life sentence behind bars then finding out your lawyer is Rooney.....  

Surely he would have needed to do his GCSE's first.

Seeing Josh Vickers in that shot smiling and joking with the lads genuinly brings a tear to my eye. Up the Rams 🐏

Listening to Graham Richards fantastic tribute to Francis Lee on Radio Derby.

Has there ever been a better radio commentator………………….the blokes a legend!

Music has the ability to take you back to moments decades ago. Graham Richards' voice does the same and much, much more. 

RIP Franny. Before my time but spoken about a lot by my old man. He loved him. Condolences to his family and friends.

Whilst we bash away, mostly anonymously behind the keyboard, just go take a second to see what Josh Vickers is going through right now, Ed, just like us all is a real person. 

Regardless of how you feel about him as a person or his commentary style there is absolutely no need for personal stuff towards a fellow Derby fan.

Seriously, come on, have a word with yourselves.

 

Great post. I'm really pleased to see the hate-filled comments have been removed from this thread. What a nasty, horrible, self-righteous bunch of entitled fans we have amongst us. Fair enough, criticise his work if it makes you feel better, even create a petition to send to Radio Derby if you truly want him gone, but there really is no need to attack the man himself. Whats he done to you? As David says, he's one of us ffs. 

Besides if I came into your places of work, sat at the end of your desk and watched you work all day, I'm sure I'd be able to find loads of things you do that I would disagree with.  

But I would be respectful enough to keep my opinions to myself as your line of work is your line of work, and I have no skin in the game.

At least we are trying to play football tonight.   Little cutting edge but much better to watch from my perspective.

I agree. I think someone has had a word in Warne's shell-like and told him that Derby fans won't ever accept the hoof/panic/chaos-ball he's been trying recently.

Not really sure why anyone should be particularly precious about us getting into the Premiership.

It lost its meaning and relevance for me years ago.

Me in spades. And exactly why I have very little love for the national team also. 

Being in the Premier league and fighting to finish 17th every season doesn't appeal at all. They're welcome to it. Much prefer to be in a competitive league where anyone can challenge given a good spell of results. Sounds weird, but I would much prefer to be cramped into a tight stadium with the smell of football all around rather than paying 60 quid to watch in a souless bowl full of Asian tourists taking photos.
