About time to scrap the rule about every player needing to be in their own half for a re-start.
Give them a minute or so to wum the home fans in the corner, then let the restart commence, whether they're ready or not!

I wish fans would accept that Derby cannot "splurge" the cash anymore. It's only just over 12 months ago that we were on the verge of total oblivion - no ground; no players; no club - nothing whatsoever.
We've been to the edge of the abyss, looked in and we don't ever want to go there again.
I do not want to see an owner "splash" the cash and offer us dreams, then run out of money and see it all collapse.
If we have to buy players who are, by other club or division standards, "cheap" or loans, so be it, until the club is back on firm footing, without any embargos or EFL restricted business plans, when, perhaps one day, we can go back to trading players in the normal way.
David Clowes has a plan which he set out in his interview a few months ago, in which he hoped that Derby would be back, and competing, in the Championship within 5 years and if Derby have to remain in Division 1 for another season, I will accept that because I love my football watching my home town club Derby County FC.
Let's not get over excited about who may or may not be transferred, in or out of the club, in the next few weeks, because there is still 27 days to go before the transfer window closes on the 1st September.
Let the games begin - COYR's

My god, Derby fans are a load of moaning old gits. You could put everyone a heated seat and a free pie and they’d still moan 

The club's still alive, I'm still alive - what's not to like about the start of a new season? (plus with any luck, the amount of ballcocks that's being posted on here will taper off as we have the actual football to discuss....) - all positives for me..

As part of the launch of Derby County’s recently-launched Identity project, unveiled in line with the one-year takeover of the club by Clowes Developments (UK) Ltd in July myself within @RamsHeritage trust have the task of providing the six kits for the display.
Come on down to Pride Park on Friday and you’ll learn more about Derby County Football Club’s Identity colour palette, based on kits take from key eras of its history, along with seeing the brand new tunnel area at Pride Park Stadium.

I don't eat pastry! 😉😅

I don't mind Coors...or Madri. I also enjoy wine of all kinds, and really like a pint of Guinness. I will drink Pale Ale and try different bitters and comment some are nicer than others.  But I'm there for the football, so it is all largely irrelevant to my enjoyment of the day which is entirely based on whether we win.

As a Madri drinker with zero shame, I can honestly say I would drink it even if it was called Burto from Burton.
I was given an early tip off by @Srg to give it a go once it's out there, first place I found it was in Hull.
12 months later it's exploded everywhere.
I'm under no illusion it's basically a stronger Coors, as an ex Coors drinker it's perfect.
I get that drinking something mainstream that's available in most pubs and supermarkets isn't a cool thing to admit publicly these days but there you go.
Signing of the summer this is.
 

We don't have a divine right to get promoted out of League 1 because we have the largest home support, we won a couple of titles 50 odd years ago yada yada.
Maybe we've found our true level playing in League 1, some supporters seen desperate to go down the same route as we did when we were in the Championship to get promotion at any costs because we should be playing in the Premiership in their eyes.
Why not just be happy with what you've got. 

And yet despite all the good news I would be prepared to bet quite a lot that our expenditure still exceeded our income and that our owner has needed to find ways of bridging the financial gap over the last year and probably next too  
 It’s not us who has to dig our hands into our pockets any more than we do,  it’s him. Even free transfers cost money. He’s being careful and thank the lord for that. 

This isn't me hahahahhaha what saddos done this then

As for the Jordan Rhodes noise, if he signs then whatever. We've seen too many times before that signings we all got excited about have turned out to be a bit of a disaster, and signings that we all moaned about turned out to be shrewd bits of business.
No point wetting the bed over it at this point.

He’s Paul Warne thank god. I for one am delighted that he is. 

Never in doubt 😂 
that 6 nearly finished me off 

Really. A whitewashing avoided, a test win against the number 1 side in the world, the Ashes series still alive and scope for better yet...
Work to be done, for sure, but I'd say there are reasons to be cheerful. 

Never in doubt 😂

Intrigues me how this kind of fan stays loyal. I mean, I’m born and bred Derby County, no other team are ever going to be close to my heart. But, it’s so hard being a Derby fan. We’ve got an amazing history, we’re full of stories of dodgy money, rich men meddling, mercurial players being snatched from us, very few trophies and fans of other clubs having a weird kind of hatred for us. But non of this ever matters if The Rams are in your blood. If they’re not and you chose this club, you must be mad! 

No they're not, some on here are proper window lickers 😆

As a respected tweeter has pointed out PW has gone from saying that if Derby are in for a player it’s basically a done deal because of the size of the club. To now saying that half the league are competing with us for signatures. 
 
Also to my knowledge Bielik’s wage was included in this years budget. So if we can’t sign a couple of decent strikers with that then it’s a bad job….I get we can’t splash the cash Willy nilly but if we start the season with Collins as our main striker then questions need to be asked.
