    ramsbottom got a reaction from Comrade 86 in Punching above our weight. What do you think would elevate us above mid table next season?   
    It's amazing how these topics get side-tracked, it really is.  @Bris Vegas I've only read through the last couple of pages but if you're going to make a claim about us not having any international players since the early 00's, without the caveat that they have to have been from a popular country and have a large personal fan base, then you're going to get called out because what you stated was clearly untrue.
    Therefore you shouldn't play the victim card when you get blow back on views which are misinterpreted, due to you not making your point clear.  Also as @Archied has pointed out, a lot of your opinions seem to be at odds to the majority of others on here, and change if they're challenged.  I can remember a fantastic conversation we had about whether points gained or league position was a true barometer of a club progressing, it lasted for days.  What fun that was...

    The atmosphere at PP in August will be electric it seems.
    ‘We all hate the Yellow Submarine!’
    ‘Stand up if you hate Villarreal!’
    ’If you don’t do the bounce, you’re yellow!’
    ‘Are you watching, are you watching, are you watching Mexico?’

    The interview with Warne post Carlisle game was filmed on the Monday after and he said he was meeting a couple of players the day after.  Folks need to chill out and resign themselves to the fact that just because there aren't 25 (reliable) ITK accounts across social media confirming we're in for such & such a player, days or weeks before admin release the announcement video, it doesn't mean everyone is sat at home, picking lint out of the arse crack, doing nothing.  It just means we're really good at keeping our powder dry...

    If it was the Nick Pickering Entrance it would mysteriously disappear for most of the time a game was on.

    ramsbottom got a reaction from Jackal in How much do you think we have to spend on actual transfer fees?   
    With the anticipated increase in revenue you'd think they'll be around £2-3m in a pot for transfer fees, and the rest being divied up for loan fees & wages.  Not exactly the bottomless pit some were hoping for/expecting.  I'm thinking we'll be doing a lot of business with frees & loans.

    Watched a fair bit of the MK Dons v Crawley game the other day and was really impressed with Klaidi Lolos.  Greek international, can play up front on in midfield and has very tidy feet.  TransferMarkt has him valued at £125k.  Worth a gamble??

    ramsbottom got a reaction from jono in Retained List   
    I was implying the club found out, as in they didn't like him leaking info, so took care of him.  Not that he was full of poo...  BT has been the only ITK-er who I pay any attention to.
    This is why I despise post season, it's not so much the endless bulls*** that gets thrown around on socials, by divs trying to get clicks & likes, it's the amount of gullible a******** who believe it, then start kicking off when it doesn't happen...

    1988 Derby 4-2 Wimbledon: Deano’s debut. Nuff said
    1996 Derby - Man Utd 1:  Laursen’s stunning free kick.  And Igor putting on a clinic, man-marking the reigning FWA player of the season Eric Cantona out of the game.  Kung Fu Eric didn’t get a sniff.
    2010 Derby 3-0 Preston: The height of that purple patch with Kuqi upfront and Alberto Bueano running riot.  Really thought Nigel had finally unlocked the potential that day
    2022 Derby 1-0 Oxford:  Not a great game, but I’m sure that I wasn’t the only one in the crowd that shed a tear or two from the relief & joy at the fact we still had a football club to support

    The £7-8m quoted is purely from the new TV deal passed down from the Prem.  There will be an increase in revenue from sponsorship, and season ticket sales to add on, probably another £2-3m.  A drop in the ocean compared to the relegated teams and those like Dog Fingerer FC who have to prop up their massive losses through their mard arse chairman...
