Not sure I if this is accurate or not, but weren’t we close to signing Roberto Baggio under the Jim Smith era?

What a place to be in. Couldn't go today, and only listened to RD for the 2nd half. Curiously my non-footballing wife has put FA Cup football on 3 times this weekend, and I have just watched Manchester City v Chelsea. City have been really good, and lead 3 - 0 at half-time, but I said to Veronica "You can watch whatever you want". "What about the football?" she asked. "It doesn't matter" , I replied. IT DOESN'T MATTER!IT isn't Derby County, and it is a world where money, power and privilege count for all. Skill, ability, etc are irrelevant. If we get into that realm, then it will matter because it is Derby County, but right now, I don't care one thing about it.
BUT: the half-tie punditry includes Alan Shearer, who slammed Chelsea, describing them as embarrassing. Regardless of the score, he said "You need to put a shift in. They (Chelsea) haven't". Then I think back to Paul Warne telling us he wanted our player to "gas out" on the pitch, and that is an important factor to what is going on at Pride Park. It has taken a while but we are seeing the results. Our fitness has now reached the right levels, so giving it our all is now well within our capacity. Along with that, Paul's people skills is building a togetherness we haven't seen, possible since the days of Nigel Clough!
Paul has changed us from being a bunch of kids and dads who nobody wanted, into a team nobody wants to play! Brilliant!
