    TomBustler1884 got a reaction from Miggins in Derby v Shrewsbury Town - Match Day Thread   
    This will be my first match in the stands with my son. Aged 4, so no expectations about lasting for the whole thing, but he's been asking to go and is already excited for Saturday.
    He's been practicing his chanting so hoping for an improved atmosphere!

    Other teams have to want them. If Fornah is the only one attracting enough interest to allow us to complete a deal then it's him or nothing.
    As for the rest, you can't plan for next season until we know what league we're in. If we go up, Bird stays, for example.

    Lose a fringe player in an area of the pitch with lots of options, and gain a proven goalscorer to add to our threadbare forwards?
    Yes, 100% if we have to move out to bring in. Our focus right now has to be on getting out of this league

    A few bits from today, no questions from the floor due to time.
    West Stand front imagery changing this week.
    We have the 61st highest average attendance in Europe 
    Wages are now at 45% of turnover which speaks to the club's commitment to be run sustainably
    Stephen Pearce knows how admin looked from outside the club but everyone at the club knows how important it is to the city and refused to give up. The work done by fans, businesses, employees was inspirational. Club has made vast strides in the last 18 months to be run responsibly, humbly and with integrity.
    Paul Warne spoke about how he works, his realisation how much of a big club this is after seeing the work DCCT do to embed it onto the community.
    Spoke a lot about fostering group unity, only recruiting talented, strong-minded players who can handle the pressure of playing here. He said everyone wants to play here and he almost has to try and put them off to see if they are just here for the money or genuinely desire to be here.
    Made a comment about a player might be brilliant for a Port Vale but might struggle in front of 30,000, or not have the right mentality to succeed here. Could be Arblaster, or could have just pulled Port Vale from nowhere.
    Hinted that Cashin and Elder may have picked up knocks but didn't say for definite, John-Jules is absolutely devastated by hamstring injury, hoping they can get him back before end of season. Senior players have all offered support to him.
    Team were extremely disappointed with themselves on Tuesday.
    Not much else really. All I will say is that Pearce in my opinion is doing a good job and seems very determined to help DCFC to succeed.
    It was my first time hearing Warne in person and he comes across so much better. Very personable and interesting.

    Where I live we distribute double-sided posters to everyone to put in their windows. One side which says trick or treaters welcome, other side saying not. Makes it much easier!

    More fool them.
    I thought he was a mediocre manager at best whose wages helped to drain the club's finances even further at a time we could ill afford to do so.
    Plus I feel he was always instrumental in the removal of cocu and undermined him as the manager in his own desire for management.
    And he will always be the man who was in charge when we were relegated to league 1.
    A massive mistake by Birmingham that won't them take long to regret I fear.

    TomBustler1884 got a reaction from ramit in Simulation theory   
    I've been sucked into the alien wormhole a little since the Congressional hearings. 
    Personally, I think it's highly likely we have UFO craft and have been contacted. I think it's likely those craft are bio engineered - no propulsion or fuel, but powered by the pilot.
    I think contact has been happening for millennia and is intertwined with all religions, whether as a way for humans to comprehend those interactions, or as a form of control who knows.
    The last bit I think is the question of why. There are some really bizarre explanations out there, but whether aliens are extra terrestrial, extra dimensional or extra temporal, I like the theory that we are souls and consciousness, reincarnated after death. Does that make Earth a prison/simulation to keep us here from malevolent beings? Or our home that we can ascend from that would tie into beliefs like Buddhism - reach enlightenment and transcend Earthly being into enlightenment.
    All probably absolute nonsense but fascinating nonetheless.
    Main point is this - if we have UFOs, that is the least interesting part of the story.
