"This is the way the world ends
This is the way the world ends
This is the way the world ends
Not with a bang but a whimper." 
 
T.S. Eliot, The Hollow Men

I think it's going to end with the Arab nations invading Israel and Israel, in desperation, using it's nuclear weapons causing a vast escalation leaving the world enshrined in nuclear winter for 100 years with only mutant deformed cockroaches left living, chirping to each other that the only reason they got docked 4 points was because the league is biased against them.

Four billion years from now, the increase in Earth's surface temperature will cause a runaway greenhouse effect, creating conditions more extreme than present-day Venus and heating Earth's surface enough to melt it. By that point, all life on Earth will be extinct.
 
I actually think that sounds more appealing than our perennial final inning’s collapse. Roll on oblivion. 

Despite it being impossible, as they all play each other, I expect our four promotion rivals to take maximum points from their remaining games, while we fail to pick up a single point for the remainder of the season.
We finish 6th and, despite getting our hopes back up by sneaking past Bolton in the semis, we collapse in the against Lincoln in the final at Wembley blow a 2-0 lead to lose 5-2. Sending 40,000 Derby fans home unhappy, as 378 Imps celebrate promotion on Wembley Way.
Meanwhile, Leeds and Leicester claim Automatic promotion to the Premier League, and Nottingham Forest escape relegation by a point on the final day.All three go on to finish top 10 in the following season.
In League 2, Wrexham are promoted and proceed to spend £300m to assemble to strongest third tier side of all time, meaning that recently relegated Birmingham city have to settle for second place, as the Rams miss out again and head to Wembley to eventually lose to Rotherham. (Who are by then managed by Conor Hourihane)
 

Heat death of the universe.
 
Probably just before Derby are due to be promoted.

The council could just say no out you go then.  We'll build some riverside apartments to offset our deficit and you buy some new land off us at at 50 million quid plus building costs.  Enjoy ground sharing with Mansfield.

I feel the same. When teams are haggling over £10m for a player like it’s is haggling over 50p at the market, it makes me sick. Like it’s nothing. But it would be a life changing lottery win for any normal person.
Like Trump manifesting $4b overnight. Why can’t normal people have that sort of money, or just tiny bit of it. 

Is that really a good look for the prime minister to be posing for photos with an alleged drug smuggler? What has the PM gained from that. Maybe a couple of votes from the 3 or 4 Forest fans. But when marinakis eventually gets convicted of something, these photos are bound to come back like trump and Epstein. 

When can I start singing "forest going down with a fiver in the bank"? 

When you use the term "Thereabouts" when referring to a difference of £13m, it shows just what a shiteshow football has become.
It's almost like... "£13 million?  Pfft!" 🙄
I'm struggling to fall out of love with Derby County FC, but I feckin' detest football!  

I wonder of other countries fans have gone into meltdown. 
France and Netherlands have both been beaten by  previously struggling Germany. France then later squeezed past Chile 3-2 with a deflected shot and Chile hitting the post.
Spain only drew with Brazil due to 2 soft penalties. Italy edged the might of Venezuala 2-1. 
Portugal lost 2-0 to Slovenia.
We had over half our probable starting XI missing. 
Chill out people.

Most of it is Harry Arter.

Regardless of the social media inspired pile on, Harry Maguire has hardly ever put a foot wrong in tournament football for England.

Reader warning @Crewton - I'm not ranting at you with what is below, just in general.
Oh I'd agree with that point - if anyone needs convincing watch 'Once Upon A Time In Iraq' to see how it works to impose your views on others. But I'm not sure it's quite as simple as suggesting that the last colonial overlord is the one who is then tasked to lead on fixing the problem. It feels more first world / third world to me and situations like this, Somalia, Sudan and Yemen sadly just show that there is no compunction on anyone to redress the inequalities that have formed. I don't think anyone suggests we want to live in a world where everyone is equal to one another, but the level of inequality - and the total disregard to help those who are unable to provide in return - shames us as a species. And the suggestion that because we (first world) haven't always found the formula means there is no option is not really one we should consider - long term investment, education, support and a little bit of care and empathy. Has it ever worked? Well I'd suggest large parts of Latin America, parts of South East Asia and many parts of Europe (benefitting from EU funding, Ireland for example) have seen economic development from external support.
But hey, let's not worry, slob out on the sofa and in a couple of weeks there will be some 80s pop star in the ad break asking you to give what you can (sadly, without tax refunded). Every little bit helps and all that.
Oh, and we are helping some countries who need help. Place like Ukraine, Aghanistan, Nigeria so we can do it when we want to.

That’s good, if that’s their stance they must definitely have voted for fairer distribution of money for EFL clubs as opposed to keeping the same parachute system. Would be a terrible look if not!

Haven't got much confidence in their £250M team and top level coach, have they?

Here's Ship 29 having an engine test in the run-up to the coming fourth Integrated Flight Test:
Analysing Flight 3, it seems the team had significant problems with stabilizing Starship on reentry, so that its heatshield was properly positioned. It was pitching and rolling all over the place, exposing the unprotected areas to the surrounding plasma - hence the loss of vehicle quite early into the descent. Finding a solution is likely the biggest objective of Flight 4.
In the early tests, when it was just the Starship on its own, flying up and then bellyflopping back down, this wasn't a problem as it was beginning from a stationary start. But now Starship is coming in at 'orbital velocity' it proved harder to maintain stability first time around. In Flight 3 the team decided against a deorbit burn to slow the ship, because of the rolling. I expect they'll be keen to do this next time around.

We’ll see him when it’s time to lift the league 1 trophy. If anyone deserves to get their hands on some sort of silverware for us, it’s fozzy. 

That is so stupid of them. How do they not realise they got off lightly? They couldn’t possibly get any less points tramen off. They can’t expect it to be reduced to zero, so what, they’ll reduce it to 2pts, best case scenario. What difference will that really make? And why would any sanctioning body agree to that? As a punishment, it’s no deterrent at all. What do they hope to gain from this? But worst case scenario, they know they were awarded 2 pts back for cooperating, so they logically should have that reapplied by default. 2pts in the opposite direction really could make a difference.
Right now they’re just 1pt behind Luton. That should be an achievable target. If they can’t make that up on the pitch, then they don’t deserve to be in the premier league. This appeal will just distract them and probably loose them more points on the pitch than they could hope to gain in court. 
I’ll absolutely piss myself if they get docked an extra 2pts and go down by one. How incredible would that be?!

Brilliant, they're going to end up deducted 6.
