    TheresOnlyWanChope got a reaction from r_wilcockson in EFL Verdict   
    Surely that just means for the resubmitted accounts which will bring about new charges if they fail. Not sure if that’s been mentioned before or I’ve misinterpreted it but that’s how I’ve understood the statement. The fine could potentially be overturned into a points deduction although would be extraordinary if that happened. If the EFL appeal the fine and it’s turned into a points deduction couldn’t there be court hearings etc brought about by Derby, it would drag on surely. 

    I expect championship football next season but this is worrying and we may have a few years of struggle ahead sadly unless things change dramatically.

    Don't know if any of that speculation is true but Joswiak is talented. Poland have some very good players and Joswiak is involved. He's young still.

    Don’t care who we get as long as we don’t play a ‘weakened side.’ Maybe that’s why Derby have never ever got near to winning this trophy.

    Thats why we set up the Rams heritage trust, to get a group of like minded individuls into one collective, it was clear from the club that it was not in their brief to incur costs into something that didnt have the footfall to bring in enough income to cover costs of heating, lighting, security, exhibits, insurances against damage, theft and public liability, it is now our intention going forward to preserve the clubs history at our own expense, we were just starting to make headway before covid struck. 
    For instance we had sponsorship from Littleover Brewery and we came up with the BBG125 ale that sold well, we had an exhibition at the old bell all set up with a presentation or rather a production based on Steve Bloomer and we had displays to set up around Derby, this was going to help us guage the public intrest, from the display that we did at the Horizons school in the Market Hall it was obvious that there is an intrest but what you have to take in mind is that whilst we are all Derby as the saying goes not everybody is interested in our past, for example if myself@Quangyor@cstandpost images in the forum how many people show an intrest ? not many, we keep it going for the few that do or the few that recognise our efforts, very soon all of this stuff will have dissapeared, the generations are moving on and getting older, people die and a lot of our heritage just gets tossed out, people of blissfully unaware of what it is or what it represents, that is why we work so hard in trying to get as much of it back to then show to the future generations of Rams fans, but it costs money, in some cases a lot of money, there are some fantastic people out there who have approached myself and seen what i am doing and helped considerably and that will be the same for the other guys but the majority of the shirts, programmes, tickets, photos, ceramics, medals etc etc cost a lot of money.
    So we are looking at plans for the future, we are considering using technology to greater effect in perhaps a virtual museum that would be accessed online, we are hoping that the Rams Heritage trust will be able to display ta the new museum of making next year, we are having to adapt to this new world that is happening around us, we have a club that is keeping itself quiet at the moment but who knows the new owners may be more receptive to protecting our great past built over the last 140 years or so or will the be just as blaise and go with the current trend that seems to want to forget that there was any history because everybody is so ashamed of it, we believe that you learn from history not hide from it.
    will keep you all posted as things develop.

    So because men invented these sports they can’t be played by women? Some of these were invented by white men, does that mean other races can’t play? Also in terms of standard why are you or others comparing the standard to men’s ? The 100m women times are well over a second off men’s so what? Top female tennis players would lose to top men players so what? 
    Don’t see an issue with BBC plugging it. More and more people watch it and more and more women are playing it. People need to get used to it.

    TheresOnlyWanChope got a reaction from IslandExile in Women’s football   
    If anyone is in doubt about the growing popularity of the women’s game, over 40,000 watched the women’s FA cup final in 2019, the super league averaged around fans a match 4,000 in the pre covid season, which is just about on par with league 2. In fact, Tottenham who had the highest average attendance had a higher average than around half of men’s league 1 clubs. To dismiss the women’s game as a very minor sport undeserving of any more than a snippet of coverage is just plain ignorance.
