I park at the Premier Inn (DE21 6BF). You can book and pay online in advance (£5). 
Advantages:
Seems safe each time I've been there
15 minute walk to PP
After a two hour journey my bladder really appreciates the facilities inside the Premier Inn
Quick pint or two if you so fancy
 
I was recommended this place by someone on here and I've been grateful for the suggestion ever since tbh

He came on and looked alright.....couldn't remember his name. He played wide though.....I thought he was a striker tbh.

We were much improved after the break and were actually the more likely side to score. With the number of u23's we have in the first team squad it obviously weakens us in this u23 Premier League 2 division. A straight match up between Everton's best u23's and ours would probably see us run out impressive winners.
From what I've seen previously and last night I have to question why we released Cameron Cresswell yet retained Cybulski. The former looked to be a much better forward. 

His popularity rating isn't rising is it.

I was at the u23's game tonight and it was a tough watch tbh.
Keeper Fowkes was impressive, with one save made when the ball was seemingly already past him. Given the concerns around Roos and Allsop he might not be too far away from a call up to the first team squad.
Louis Thompson was a bit disappointing, especially his delivery from set pieces. You can see he has something there to work with though. 
Isaac Hutchinson seemed to have the wrong studs in. Again, looks to have a touch of class about him but, as with Thompson, needs to be running the show at this level.
Of the others, I'll be kind to new boy Reece Hutchinson and suggest he'll improve with a run of games. He really struggled though in truth, as did Solomon at CB. 
Bardell was decent enough at right back but not much happened for Agathise. 
I'm loathe to criticise young lads giving their best but Cybulski up top is never going to have a career in league football.

Not sure we should have 13 points tbh. 
Huddersfield: fair result
Posh: should have got a point
Hull: fair result
Boro: fair result
Forest: two points less than we deserved despite Forest having more possession after the break
For my money we have six points but probably deserve to have nine.

Running Averages for the Season

The Top DCFC Raters
As mentioned at the outset, those who provide 40 or more of the 46 player ratings (or 49 lol) asked for will go into the hat to win a small prize. Leading the way so far are:
bcnram              5/5
Carnero             5/5
Texas Ram        5/5
Angie Ram        4/5
SteadyBreeze   4/5  
Yani P                4/5
(14 others)        3/5
  
 
 
 
 

It'll vary tbh, Rava. Will notch an entry beside your name as that effort deserves it but I ain't recalculating everything!

Not sure we should have 13 points tbh. 
Huddersfield: fair result
Posh: should have got a point
Hull: fair result
Boro: fair result
Forest: two points less than we deserved despite Forest having more possession after the break
For my money we have six points but probably deserve to have nine.

Fozzy is about the least aggressive player and person imaginable. No way was that intentional.

Yeah, this. Having said that, lets play 'Predict the 8'......
Haven't a clue so: 
Mengi   (Man U)
Delap    (Man C)
Roberts (Patrick)   (Man C)
Grosicki    (free agent I think)
Carroll (Andy)  (free agent)
Shoretire  (Man U)
Hannibal   (Man U)
Brannagan  (Oxford)
 
Eight would be too many imo. 
Edit: Wisdom of course ^^^

I think that's a pretty fair comment tbh.
