  1. @angieramhas been posting the international call ups for our Academy youngsters, as and when, in that thread. But I thought not everyone looks in there and we have nine kids away on this international break. An amazing achievement. Or have I missed others? The future's looking pretty bright. Here they are: Jack Thompson (GK) England U18 Keilen Robinson (defender) England U19 Dan Cox (defender) Wales U19 Cruz Allen (midfield) Wales U17 Darren Robinson (midfield) N Ireland U21 Niall McAndrew (midfield) Ireland U17 Charlie Lindsay (forward) N Ireland U21 Carlos Richards (forward) Gibraltar U21 Dajaune Brown (forward) Jamaica U23 (he's only 18 and is also eligible for England)
  2. Pixies tonight at the Town and Country, aka the "O2 Forum". Sadly it's apparently one of those weird album tours where they don't play their hits. Just give the punters what they want!
  3. The question before us is, with Gayle presumably out, do we recall Dajaune from Gateshead for the Northampton game? Or do we rely on Waghorn, or NML, or try to play without a recognized striker?
  4. I confess I have never seen that as a requirement, so have circumvented any complicated problems. Meanwhile: A teenager brings her new boyfriend home to meet her parents. They’re horrified by his haircut, his tattoos, his piercings. Later, the girl’s mother says, “Dear, he doesn’t seem to be a very nice boy.” “Oh, please, Mum!” says the daughter. “If he wasn’t nice, would he be doing 500 hours of community service?”
  5. Should have called this thread something around Dajaune Brown - I thought at the time, other key U21s would be out on loan. Dajaune played the full game yesterday as Gateshead lost 4-2 away at Ebbsfleet. A Gateshead central defender was sent off after 5 minutes, so Brown's striking partner was sacrificed meaning it was probably a tough game. No goals for our boy, but Gateshead were 1-2 up at half-time. Guessing they ran out of steam.
  6. Grr. Damn the typos. An opportunity to move seven points clear with six GAMES to go. Away at Northampton who are mid-table with nothing to play for. Hopefully already on the beach.
  7. Well observed, listening on the wireless, and Radio Derby mentioned Angie and her daughter.
  8. Today's results: Peterborough 0 Portsmouth 1 RAMS 1 Bolton 0 Barnsley 0 Cheltenham 0 The table now looks: None of the other top five play next weekend, so it's an opportunity to go seven points clear with six points to go.
  9. Guaranteed a top 10 finish! Tenth is our lowest possible position.
  10. Well done to players, management and fans. Stood up and were counted on the biggest day of the season so far. Seven games to go, but there is clear blue water now.
  11. Not liked our subs - a very defensive mindset, inviting pressure which we're so often not good at resisting. That said, we scored just after Elder came on. Probably just as well we did or it would have been the Alamo for the last 25 minutes. Can we hold out? So close now you can almost touch it.
  12. Crowd has been excellent - sometimes I worry when it's a full house that it tends to be quieter and more pressured. Not checked the thread for a while. In case not previously mentioned, I wanted to say there was a moment for Angie Vallance, talked about on Radio Derby. Well done to the DCFC family.
  13. Korey Smith coming on for Gayle, giving us another body in midfield, probably NML up top.
