    @OwenB87, would it be rude to ask Wayne to utilise his social media following to publicise our games on RamsTV? I’m sure you’d end up getting a few of those 17.1m Twits and 14.6m IGers converted and watching more of your content.

    Londoners, or Cockeneeeeees as many on here seem to want to call us, are a hardy breed (photo from the 2017 London Bridge attack).
    And yes, we know, at London prices you'd take your pint with you too! ?

    After Derby, obviously. Seriously though, terrible what happened yesterday, but it is great to see that we aren't going to allow terrorism to win.

    Spent yesterday afternoon/evening on the South Bank and West End of London. Terror attack or not the city was business as usual. Streets, bars and restaurants were packed and it was great to see. Just another day in the greatest city in the world.

    I certainly think that Fish is a great commentator, its great to have him on Rams TV, hes a fan and a BBC East Midlands old boy. ? Personally I hated the sounds of the coaches bellowing and would have preferred a bit more crowd background. It must have been difficult last night though.
    Love the idea of a documentary showing behind the scenes at Rams TV. How about an interview with Martin re his life as a commentator? I bet he has some great stories to tell.
    Keep up the good work on Rams TV, its a lifeline for us expats!

    I wonder if it's worth RamsTV doing a feature on RamsTV match day - to explain the issues about putting matches on (especially for away games), the different options that you may or may not have for taking the coverage/camera positions etc, what the rules are about covering certain matches and not others, a bit about the different commentators, which clubs are doing what in relation to developing their own channels, whether there's evidence that midweek coverage has reduced ticket sales, where it might go in the future.
    Given that this is in it's infancy my view is that Rams TV as a whole is very, very good

    I believe @Boycie is right (it had to happen one day) and all streams are down to the home club. I can't imagine RamsTV have a mobile unit similar to Sky or the BBC to beam back away games. At least the commentary was good and that is down to RamsTV. Congratulations @OwenB87 and team.

    Not sure if it helps or not, but I did change the theme on my iPad to Orange late last week, and much of my need to double tap was gone.  Had to double tap today though, but have just changed the theme back to black and I seem to be ok again?  Something intermittent perhaps? Don’t worry too much on my part David - I am just supplying info in case it may be of use.

    Hey don’t worry, I’m double clicking too on my iPad but not my iPhone.
    Best thing is, this iPad used to belong to the gaffer.
    He seems not to believe me, “ cus it was alright when I had it “

    My all time favourite season watching the Rams was 1986/87, great times as a teenager And great times for our football club, my all time favourite game was that last game of the season v Plymouth where we cemented or position as League Champions.
    My visitor today was none other than the joint spearhead of our attack who was always scoring goals for Derby ..Philip Gee, he has very kindly entrusted me to look after his shirt from that season and that he wore in that last game, complete with stains from the day and that season, that now sits proudly with Bobby Davison’s shirt from that season and also the second division championship winners medal ! What a trio ! Also mark wallingtons shirt from the season, it’s like instant time travel back to 1987 ! Oh what a time to be alive ! 
    Massive thanks to Phil and another massive shirt from our history preserved for future generations of Derby County fans !

    It can't be that easy to walk the tightrope between being captain of a team and finding yourself accused of 'Player Power Politics'
    Are you one of the lads or a management spy?
    "Responsibility without authority is hell."
    Richard has a proven track record over the years....true!
    He can no longer fulfil the terms of his contract......true!
    He seems to have turned down an offer amounting to massively more than I, and one or two others perhaps, could even dream of were we to be injured at work. (Regardless of any issue of due care and diligence).
    Has he been sacked?
    Is he a scapegoat for the whole episode?
    I understand that he has not been charged with any offence and did not even get a notice of intended prosecution.
    Both he and the Club will be walking a legal tightrope and, yes I wish him well but, He will not be helped by any of us sitting as barrack room lawyers!

    I have felt too emotional about the whole situation to offer my view up to now.
    My heart is broken for a good captain and warrior for DCFC. To be sacked from the club you have given 100% to on the pitch over seven gruelling seasons must be humiliating and make you feel dreadful.
    However, my head now questions how much of Keogh's passion for Derby is real. The least favourable offer he turned down from the club, if accurate, of £3,000 per week, is more than the prime minister's salary and only slightly less than the chief police constable of Derbyshire who has responsibility for a huge budget and staff team  who do a tremendously difficult job every day at work.
    He was also being offered free state of the art rehabilitation facilities, could start to work on his coaching badges if he wished and presumably would also be free to supplement his income with appearances on Sky ("like you say") or other options if that is his choice. Most importantly in all this he was being offered an opportunity to retain his status as a good servant of the club and the adoration and support of the fans.
    He has chosen to reject all this for what? More money. Not much of a swap in my opinion.
    His action will now by actively costing the club too as they will have been taking expensive legal advice and will have to continue to do so over the appeal and possible tribunal.
    People are wondering why no official statement from Derby. I wonder whether the 'statement' we are reading is actually the dismissal letter to Keogh as the wording in it, including the 14 days' appeal time, reads like a letter from HR. 
    I don't know if I am being overly supportive of my club, but the whole way this story has broken makes me think it has come from Keogh's side. He clearly feels very aggrieved about the way he is being treated.
    I also think this will have been going back and forward for some time, that this is just the latest play from the club and that they might have been hoping for a response from Keogh that would have allowed him a successful appeal, rather than a messy, public and prolonged visit to an industrial tribunal.
    All this is huge speculation on my part, for which I hold my hands up. It is coloured by my huge love for our club, rather than for any individual player, no matter how good a servant he has been to DCFC.
    What I do know is that while Keogh still has my sympathy, he's lost my respect.

    Tell me, anyone, has the club actually made any official statement on Keogh being sacked? Can’t see anything on the website.  Isn’t it the case that the only statement has come via the DET?  May there be some misreporting here?
    I recall that when Bennett and Lawrence were dealt with by the club, it was stressed that the action taken was the maximum that could be done in line with their contracts. The fact that they were fit and able to fulfil their duties as football players being key, particularly if we wind forward to Keogh.  He is being treated differently in my view only because he himself cannot fulfil his contract - there are obligations on both sides within a contract.
    I don’t think there is any point commenting further without the full facts.

    1/  Teach them the difference between "of" and "have". 
    2/  When they are sad, pat them on the head, and say "Their, There, They're"
    3/  DCFC "lose" games.  Women from Nott***ham are "Loose".  There's a difference!
    4/  Do not encourage them to play Peek-a-BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!  It becomes a bad habit!
    5/  @Boycie isn't actually that funny bloke from the telly... or anywhere else, for that matter!
    6/  Teach them the difference between an eye and a horn.  (No smut please... children are reading!)
    7/  If they ain't truly into The Rams by the time they are 12, let them know the freebie season tickets run out, and you ain't wasting your money on a ticket for them... I'm looking at you, Grandson!
    8/  If they are ever sick, tell them never to declare "I've add more van free", as someone may be filming them!
    9/  @Red_Dawn  is actually a man, despite having a girls name, so do not speak to him... and never accept sweets off him... he's a baddie!
    10/  Avoid anything with 2 stars... Hotels, restaurants, football shirts...
