    Looking like it will be about 32 degrees for the game on Saturday. I cannot remember going to a match in such a hot temperature. The hottest I can remember was when we played at Fulham back in the Jim Smith years (0.0 I think). Must have been the first away game of the season and it was roasting in the old cramped wooden stand (the away fans were housed along the side in those days) and what a relief to get out into the fresh air at the end. 

    They ran out of water as well in the concourses. 
     

    it was heaven when the sprinklers strayed into the stand.

    I keep thinking back to the Stanford debacle.  

    He just kept leveraging and raising the stakes with regard to everything he had. Just made no sense, except to a narcissist who just wanted 'stuff' to impress people. He could much more quietly gone about things to keep himself safer for longer... but the arrogance/showmanship that got him some success in the first place just needed constantly feeding. Plus having expensive unnecessary 'stuff' just convinces people you must have money....it feeds itself. 

    Then I think about all the chat about CK's private jet, his vagueness about money, his hob-nobbing at golf tournaments...the parallels are definitely there...

    Maybe in this case we will find out...

     

    You may be right. We'll probably never know.

    First time I'd heard of Simons. Goal scoring midfielder, signed from Torquay. Was also on trial at Chelsea earlier in the year (and scored).

     

    Elsewhere, True Grant is a 1st year scholar at Man City. A goalkeeper signed from us in 2019. https://www.dcfc.co.uk/news/2018/03/academy-life-episode-one-tru-grant

    He moved up to Manchester with the rest of the family when Lee signed for Man Utd so effectively wanted to pay for his local club

    I'd say the same for Rams Trust as I'd say for a political party. 

    If you don't like what they're doing, while broadly supporting their aims, join it and challenge and change it from within. 

    Easy to sit on the sidelines giving it large, harder to get off yer arse and effect positive change.

    Challenge them while your a member and you soon get silenced by the cabal at the top and their cronies. 

  5. Not really. There weren’t any team sheets.  
    jake Rooney was captain

    foulkes in goal, his error lead to their second. 
    Brailsford right back

    Ibrahim was useless and didn’t look like he wanted to be there  

    Richards wide right

    i think it was Nunn up front  only thing he did ask fans was get into a fight with their centre half

    Just getting all the documents typed and prepared would have taken a few days, and although heads of terms would have been agreed in the last 72 hours no way can a deal as complex as this be done on docu-sign.

    It’s a one word answer as to the reason.
