Gateshead playing again tonight, didn’t they play Monday?

 

Haven't they got to play something stupid like 5 games in 10 or something like that?

Naturally. But meeting a short term goal isn't the be all and end all. 

But surely you need to meet the short term goals to be able to meet the longer term ones? 🤔

I am 100% certain that had we not been in administration, had we not been being "run" by a group of men who knew nothing about actual football rules, had we not been threatened by a curly haired 🦨 and an 🚑🏃🏼‍♂️with claims for compensation that had no validity........, then we would have fought tooth and nail to be cleared of all points deductions and our good name restored.

Well , that last phrase is possibly stretching it a bit.

But it does make the signing of CBT pointless if you want to play three centre backs.

Why? NML although not playing at his best as a second striker (I'm not sure that playing there is the main reason) is doing ok and CBT is a very good straight swap. Barks is currently getting the nod as the substitute replacement, but he's on a very good run of form compared with earlier in the season. CBT when on song I believe is better than Barks. NML won't be playing for even, or even a 46 game season. I believe that CBT may actually thrive on being played more centrally, where with his power and pace will be able to go either side and have more room.

This is not a step forward at all, it stifles competition and turns it into a closed shop for the benefit of Sky. Shame on the EFL for signing such a deal. and shame on the clubs for agreeing to it also.

I will continue to subscribe to Rams TV, my overseas trips currently cost me £5 per month 🙂 Will sky be showing all matches live like Rams TV does? I doubt it! I won't give my money to Sky TV on principle.

All fans should boycott Sky TV, they are destroying football in my opinion.

Is that 2 or 3 trips, with return tickets? I'm paying £20 a month to watch the games over here in Spain. At a 5er I'd be better going over to watch a few games.

Didn’t have a car growing up but my uncle did. One night he took me for a drive and I got to sit in the front seat. When we went down unlit roads he showed me how he could turn the cats eyes on and off! I was dead impressed but also slightly bemused how this would affect other drivers. Took me many years to work out what was happening 🙄

Luton also have winnable games at home in particular and Forest have City to play. It’s not over. But I think Forest will get over the line simply because they have a top 10 wage bill and they should be nowhere near the relegation fight even with their points deductions.

So the players will suddenly put more effort in to avoid going down because they are being well paid? They appear to have put buggar all effort in up until now, and probably signed contracts that said nothing about a pay decrease if relegated. Tictoc was one of the highest paid players in the Prem last year if I remember correctly, it didn't seem to motivate him too much.

Last minute , corner , really windy day , corner is hanging in the air , the crowd is silent and open mouthed , gust of wind whips off Paul warnes bobble hat , it’s blown in the box , ball takes a slight deflection off the bobble and nestles in the far corner , stadium erupts , final whistle blows, Carlisle lose with derby up , warne starts the bounce that goes on for an hour 🤷🏻‍♂️

Nooooo, that would be terrible. Both @angieram in her usual desire to avoid the rush by leaving 5 minutes early, and @B4’s Sister in memory of her brother, will miss it!

I would have loved it to be Fozzy, but I like it to be Bird. His last touch in a Derby shirt. 

Hopefully in the 50th minute against Orient. I wouldn't like to have to wait until the 89th minute against Carlisle!

This is not down to "sampling variability" . It is the system not conforming to the model, not due to chance, but due to imperfections in the model being used.

 

 

And there was me thinking that it was because last year we were rubbish and that this year we aren't.

Always hate this month as it would have been my dad's birthday. This year he'd have been 60. Also got the additional stress of my academic job contract running down and trying to work out if I'll get an extension or not... with my industry in the doldrums it's not a fun time to say the least. Also been feeling really down generally with work and struggling to find the motivation to finish what needs to be done. 

Hopefully the Rams can give you some feel good factor this month. Look after yourself.

In 2007/8 didn't we have 3 different goal scorers? 🥷

Im gutted i never got chance to go to the BBG

I loved (don't tell @Archied 😉) the BBG, but if I'm honest I think that those that are too young to have savoured it would find it rather disappointing. Having 20000 (ok, slight exaggeration) crammed onto the Popside, everyone moving in unison (because if one person moved the whole bloody lot of us had to move), and I won't even mention the bogs (definitely the right name because they resembled a bog much more than a toilet). I think that as a one off experience they would love it, but having to go through that whole cow herd experience every week I don't think would appeal. God I miss the old place 😔. I miss the smell of the place, especially at night. Football for me has that smell, but of the few memories that I seem to have retained at my age I can still smell and taste the BBG. Football for me now is too sterile, especially with the "big" clubs demanding everything for themselves leaving not even scraps for the rest. Brian Clough would hate today's football, and nobody would have to shop him to the police because he'd be on the TV every day screaming it at the top of his voice.

I read that as pride park and the county ground. Christ, I thought, he's been going for more than 100 years and saw them at the county ground but never went to the BBG!

Good luck Fruity. You're one of the genuine fans with a genuine reason for not having a ticket. Sorry to hear that you're going home for the wrong reasons (I presume "wrong" is not actually the right word, but you know what I mean).

I only know @DarkFruitsRam7 from forum Skype reunions, but would ask anyone who can help to please do so. He's a very deserving case (even if he does have some bad habits 😉)

Posted this in the away tickets thread. Good luck mate.

You guys who weren’t at Crawley in 2011 for our glorious third round FAC exit are clearly plastics. Terrible game, and my umbrella gave up the fight after only 15 minutes. Soggy prawn sandwiches are yuk.

@sage, please note the lengths that full fans will go to for their club!
