    So, assuming Atwell is an England fan, how will they make sure that he doesn't cheat again for the benefit of the team he supports?
    He'll be disallowing goals in the group stages to cunningly plot an easier route for England to the final.
    His masterplan will be to get all the big teams into one half of the draw, so England can procede comfortably to the final.
    Or perhaps we will see his real evil genius at work...making VAR decisions against England, meaning they only finish 2nd in group, but missing all the big teams that he has contrived to end up in the other half! God, he is well dodgy. But brilliant.

    Great to see Clowes supporting too - hoping the one club approach does wonders for developing the women's too.
    Fantastic achievement, up the Ewes!

    This is absolutely what happens when the official club account tweets things to this effect. Instantly legitimised the normal conspiracy nonsense

    I've found the ticket site to be flaky as all heck.
    You do you. 
    It doesn't particularly matter, just means PP will still be rocking.

    This in spades 🙌 
    Bittersweet for sure and as much a relief as anything, after our troubles. it's been a proper slog and we still need one more big performance to be sure. I wouldn't worry about B4 too much though, as word has it he told the big boss he was nipping out for milk on Saturday evening and has not been seen since 👀

    Animal is a Ram reacted to Comrade 86 in DCFC Away Wins Club Record   
    Seen this proudly heralded on here and rightly so, but it does still seem to have gone under the radar a little, unless yours truly has simply missed it. Thirteen away wins in a single season is bonkers and in these lower divisions, it feels like it's even harder, with some teams pulling out all the stops to ensure their pitches don't encourage actual football. And that's before we mention the 'special attention' ritually handed out to any player with attacking ability.
    Thinking about this a little, it wasn't that long ago that we couldn't buy an away win and even more recently, our home form was shocking with only our away day prowess keeping our noses in it. On reflection, I'm quite proud at how we've ridden the bumps, worked hard and have improved all the way to the line. Going into the last game we've a 14 to 13 split for home and away victories, so our home form in the second half of the season has actually been very good too.
    Having a quick tot up as I read the article, a great stat emerged, no xG, I promise!; in winning the 13 away games, we outscored our respective opponents by a staggering 31 goals to 6 which yields an effective rate of over 5 goals scored for every one conceded. See! I told you it was a doozy! 
    Have a read of the article linked below if you fancy a quick bask in the reflected glory. Handy way to distract yourself from how slowly this pesky working week is going.
    Whadddya mean it's only Monday!?! It must be at least Wednesday by now!!! 😡

    The opportunity to win promotion at Pride Park, in front of a sell out crowd, after what the club has essentially gone through the last four years, is something that could create memories that will last a lifetime.
    If, and hopefully when it happens, I'll definitely spare a thought for B4 and others who marched through the city to help keep the club alive but sadly won't be here to see this significant step in our rebuilding process.

    It's a way down my list of priorities for going.
    I just said, I don't expect to be entertained. Mostly because, especially this season, there's always a team doing their damndest to stop that.
    Yes, sport is entertainment, but only really for a neutral. In my opinion.

    The modifier you're missing out on is the emotional component for a lot of people.
    I go to Derby games because I like watching football and I have an emotional connection to the club. I don't expect to be entertained, because it's not guaranteed.
