  1. I am shocked that that compilation doesn't include Ed Dawes' very emotional speech from when we were saved - voice cracking and everything. For some reason, that's the bit I remember most.
  2. I'm 31 so can't offer any insight into retirement, but I do have a question about pensions (if I may hijack this thread). The typical advice is to take the age at which you started putting into a pension, halve it as a percentage, and save that much of your pay each month. So, for example, if you start at 30, you save 15% every pay check up until retirement age. And that should be enough to live comfortably upon retirement. Does that stack up with what people have done? I'm not going to ask people the size of their pension pot, but it would be interesting to hear perhaps what's needed as a multiplier/percentage of their salary. Also, any other financial advice for retirement?
  3. Let’s hope they do, Derbys defence isn’t the best and they could easily slip up doing that. Come on you Carlisle. 🥳 https://www.wanderersways.com/forum/topic/103103-posh/page/6/ We only have the keeper with the joint most clean sheets and the fewest goals conceded in the league. 18 goals conceded at home all season. I'd actually go so far as to say we DO have the best defence.
  4. The Greenhouse is a hellhole. I did watch an England Euros game there and it was pretty busy. Suspect it will be the same for a Derby game.
  5. Even if Pboro put their reserves out, I can't see Bolton 'smashing' them. When the chips have been down and the pressure has been on, Bolton generally haven't done well. They end up having 75%+ possession, 20+ shots, hitting the woodwork about 5 times, missing open goals from 2 yards out, and then come away with just a point. Great team no doubt about it, but I personally wouldn't back them in big moments (especially away from home).
  6. Exactly how I saw them too. 1 and 2 definitely get filed under 'seen them given'. But would I kick up a massive fuss if Derby weren't given them? Probably not.
  7. I have no idea what calibre of players we would need to bring in to make us competitive in the Championship, but it's exciting to think about. In theory, we should be able to attract better players - particularly loans from the bigger clubs - and it will be interesting to see what Warne can conjure up without restrictions.
  8. That's the one most likely to happen but I still can't see it. Bolton have been bad away from home and seem to struggle actually putting the ball in the back of the net when it matters.
  9. - Carlisle won't beat us by 2+ goals - Bolton won't beat Peterborough by 3+ goals -Peterborough won't win the next two games by 9+ goals We're Championship as far as I'm concerned.
  10. Did I hear right that Gateshead have two players called Tinkler and Booty? 🤣
  11. I noticed from the start that his demeanour seemed a bit calmer (more focused perhaps?) Interesting to hear him say that's the message they're trying to get across to the players.
  12. We're playing two of the bottom three teams in the form table over the last 10 games. We'll go for the win in both of them.
