I fully expect the Red Dogs to be playing Premier Leauge football this time next year.

Hughton is a massive upgrade on Lamoochi. 

Is this a new one? I cannot keep up.

It’ll be McCarthy or Tony Pubis. 

Forest on BBC1 now 17.30

Christie IS the replacement for Matty Cash.

So glad we have him.
We have found the centre back pairing to take us up.
Taylor’s hold up play is next level
 
THINGS CHANGED IN TWENTY MINUTES
Blackett isn’t interested but probably cos we have signed a better LB
Arter and Colback zero energy, no creativity. So glad we are forcing Silva out the club to bring these past it ex Prem players in on a fortune.

Where is Lolley - has Lamouchi fallen out with him too, like Carvalho?
 
Jealous of Leeds, who attack and play football fluidly.
We have the players for it.
 
If Sabri stays we'll be relegated with a top 6 squad.
 
Colback sounds like he wants to cry.
we've dug ourselves into a huge hole, less than a month into the new season. After last year's hiccup, this was supposed to be our "nailed on for Top 6" glory season
It's the biggest crux of the fanbase. Other than the god years, you can make a good argument that Forest have always been a medium to good second tier side. 
 

Another one, who won't be cheap, signed up down the A52 - and these frankly ridiculous stats
 

Just lost to Hull in the Carabao.  Yes HULL!

New season 
 

Suite and Sour?

Got it..
 

Henri Lansbury, in to his 3rd season at Villa now, played 23 league games. 
On a reported wage of 40k a week, another 2 seasons left on his contract.

Anyone upset he got away?

With the lady trying out a new chinese buffett place.?

Now that is a brilliant idea!

I think he is really happy to go out with Archie Roy and Roger when I have seen him, they should all have statues lining pride parkway !

I was really lucky to get an invite along today to the yard from John O’Hare to meet up with some of the 70s legends who were meeting up to celebrate Roy Macs 70th birthday and the annual Easter visit of Alan Hinton.
i thought I would take the opportunity to take my son along to meet some of the older players who when he is grown up will hopefully be given the status that that Steve Bloomer gets now, at least he will have a few photos to show that he really did meet the men who made us famous and for a brief moment in time perhaps the greatest football team in the world ?
when I got there I was a little embarrassed to find that I was the only member of the general public in attendance and felt a little bit out of place, the classic gatecrasher at the party, fortunately I know a number of them already and was instantly welcomed, I made sure that we sat just out side of the main group to allow them to chat to each other
Every one of them made time to come over and have a sit with us, I had of course taken some stuff to get signed as it was to good an opportunity to miss, after checking that they were ok with it they signed stuff and sat and talked and had photos with my son, he loved it and entered into some great conversation with them all, he was asking them about the odd haircuts that they had on the photos ( he is only eight) he told John Ohare that he should now be called john nohare which I’m not sure if john picked up on or not, he spoke to Alan about his white boots and got me showing Alan photos of his green boots, to a man they sat and chatted away talking about anything and everything, the numbers continue to dwindle, I felt like the man in the middle sharing stories of my recent meets with Colin Boulton, Colin Todd, Frank Wignall, john McGovern, and Peter Daniel, those in attendance (some with their good ladies) were John Ohare, Alan Hinton, Alan Durban, Roy McFarland, Roger Davies, Rod Thomas, Jim Walker and Henry newton, once again it struck me that the club should make more of a fuss of these guys whilst they are with us, let’s not wait twenty year before we finally get round to making up a song for them that we sing and the younger generation doesn’t have a clue what the names Todd, McFarland, Nish, Hector, Hennessy, Boulton, Newton, Gemmill, Davies, McFarland, O’Hare, McGovern, Hinton etc mean to Derby as a city.

Sad news from the Nestle factory today.
A worker was crushed beneath a large box of chocolate that fell 20 feet off some racking on to him. 
 
He repeatedly called for help, but every time he shouted “The Milky Bars are on me”, his colleagues cheered. 
 
 

Brilliant manager and a great man. He created very good football teams that were a pleasure to watch. One of our greatest ever managers.
I will never forget those days of storming through the divisions - he made us so proud of our team.
