I won £2.70. What will that get me. ?

£3.60 for me, maybe we could form a consortium?

As far as I'm aware, Ashley hasn't ever actually submitted an official bid, or perhaps more accurately, never had one accepted...

Only the Binnies and CK have actually had offers accepted.

Always happy to be proven wrong, mind.

With everything thats gone on, I had completely forgotten the Binnies even existed!

Cant argue that our forwards have let us down but i bet hes lost possession more than anyone aswell when theres been better options.

If we can keep current squad and just get 2 decent strikers we'll be flying 

I'm not sure I can find the exact stats for the above, but Ebiowei has the leageue high for complete dribbles this season and in terms of Derby is dispossessed on average the third most in the squad (Behind Plange and Ebosele, level with Sibley).

He also averages 0.7 successful crosses per game, the joint highest in the squad (Bird), and 2.3 inaccurate cross per game, the second highest in the squad (Byrne).

In comparison to the rest of the league our crossing numbers are very low, both attempted and successful, which would suggest an intentional strategy to avoid crossing the ball. (23rd most accurate, 18th most inaccurate)

Let's get serious/sensible for a minute...

Looks like we all go in at turnstiles 22-25 in the NE corner (unless Google is out of date?).

If we all arrive at 14:45, we'll need to get 67 fans per minute per turnstile to be sure of seeing kick off!   

Just sayin'

 

?

 

 

Looks like you have double capacity getting in, good luck getting out though!

I think I read somewhere that they don't have any wage cut clauses in their players' contracts in case of relegation. That's a massive oversight, as pretty much every club that's gone down in recent years has had them.

I dont think thats too surpising, maybe a little careless but this is a side that hasn't finished lower that 12th in the last 17 years

Was having a look through the United youth teams to see who Rooney could use his connections to get, and was taken by this bright young whippersnapper called Paul McShane in their ranks. One for the future?

Let's get Robbie Savage's lad in!

Am I right in thinking this would be Bird's second YPOTY?

First player to win two?

Davies/Bird

I'd we squander a 20 goal advantage over the others in just 9/10 games, I'm certain we won't have enough points anyway

You're probably right.

At end of the day, the rate we score at if we concede we dont win.

Last time we scored 2 away was Reading.

Edit: And the only other time we've done it, was Stoke!

Keep it tight, a point is a good result.

Our goal difference could be very important to our survival hopes

We need to get back to being hard to beat.

Conceding on average 1.7 goals a game since the turn of the year, we cannot out score that.

0-0 here would be a good result

Peterborough have the worst defence in the league and have not scored for 4 league games.

I for one am looking forward to their 1-0 win 

Plenty of free agents this summer, I imagine that will be alot of our shopping

Maybe some good news 

The EFL must surely jump on this as a way out

Doesn't £1m keep us running another month? Hard to turn down especially if we do secure the loan back

Team v Coventry:

DerbyshireLive: "Rooney says it will be a strong Derby team. Says there will be only two changes to the starting line up at Reading."

Thats one, Curtis gets a rest for the other?

He's a match winner and we will miss him if/when he leaves.

He's scored or assisted 8 of our 18 league goals this season, thats not including goals like Plange v Blackpool that was made by him.

We should play 3-4-3 more, pleased to see Joz do well

Please tell me that's a back 5 and Fozzy isn't playing right back

Appendix 1 in the judgement is interesting reading, outlines the "Budget" the club must adhere to.

Thankfully only until the end of the season but does restrict us through January.
