A few weeks ago, you said you’d be amazed if we make the play offs. Now we are in the driving seat with two games to play.
Perhaps in that case, Warne and the players deserve credit for the turnaround?
Your default position seems to be we only succeed against weaker opposition, but as we’ve seen in recent weeks, nothing is a given.
Cambridge and Cheltenham beat Peterborough, Burton beat Barnsley and took points off Bolton, and even today Lincoln beat Wycombe.

Look at Sheffield Wednesday’s recent run that took them from comfortably top to lagging behind in third - a run of 1 win in 8 with dropped points away v Forest Green, Oxford and Cheltenham, the kind of games we have been ridiculed for winning.
Is it really as easy as you make out?
We’ve won back to back games, we’ve gone five unbeaten, our fate is in our own hands - why not enjoy it?

Alas, no plans this year. The car (65 reg Fiesta, 92,000) needs replacing. Already spent £3,000 0n timing belt, catalytic converter and numerous other jobs since Sept 2022. Ideally? Cornwall or Scotland followed by a Sept. break in Tenerife!!

What time is the show mate
 

You know who
 

And he’s off!

Eh? They walked off the pitch separately, not together, and slowly at that.  I’m happy really as the Burton goalie was time wasting from the get go.

He was right. He didn't add any seconds on. Played the exact 5 minutes. Made up for the first half when we should have had at least 5 minutes added on.

And he’s off!

5300 km road trip with the new Ute. Down to the bottom of Victoria and now back home.

Think the efl put them up to it!

We have pictures of us and the kids sitting on the big round ones , for every year from when they were 0 up to these days in their 30s. Never missed a year yet. Though it's harder for me to get up on them each year 😀

In response to all the soft talk over Burton.
When the handful Burton fans start singing “Derby’s a poo hole, I want to go home” today, which they will, it’s the generic away fan chant, will those on here upset by the comments on Burton be equally offended by such vile chanting about the city of Derby?
Or will you just brush it off, call it football banter?
I suspect the latter. As you should.
For those with fond childhood memories of Burton, great, I have fond childhood memories of pink custard. I won’t sit on here and be offended by those that wish to mock my pink custard, nor will I attempt to force some kind of close connection to all of our childhoods with pink custard as it simply won’t be there for some.
I was born in Derby, lived there for the first 17 years or so of my life, I have zero connection to Burton as a town. The only memories I have is holding my nose as we passed through. That smell might trigger fond memories, as does the fresh smell of fish in Grimsby, it is a smell though and just like aftershave, perfumes and flowers, we all either love or hate the smell. I hate the smell.
I have never been to a Burton game because Derby were away.
I did not like the appointment of Nigel Clough from day 1.
I do not like having to hear about Burton Albion on Radio Derby.
I did not feel any special connection over a pre season friendly, likewise with Mickleover Sports, Alfreton Town, Chesterfield and all these smaller clubs around us.
So I personally won’t sit here and fake some kind of relationship with the town or club and if that offends anyone, well I don’t know what to say. Maybe look away until this game is over if it’s that distressing for you.
Go listen to their manager trying to talk this game up as a local Derby, a rivalry, doesn’t sound like a brother and sister close relationship from their side.
If I was to talk about having a close connection to our genuine rivals Forest, being offended when anyone mocks the city or how many fingers they have, I would be laughed out of here. 
It’s just a town, it’s just football and it’s having a laugh.
For those might be unaware, I met @Boycie over on a Forest forum where we were taking the piss, from that this forum was born.
We had a similar sense of humour, enjoyed the ribbing and wanted that humorous atmosphere. Whilst I appreciate since then the forum has blown up and others do not wish to come here for any kind of humour, that is the roots of this forum. Chill out a bit, it’s really not that serious.

I sometimes think that the only reason they have those massive ones is to stop kids making dens.

Mate, the debt has been settled, people who let’s say were owed £1000 maybe got £100. The agreements were made that Derby started with no debt, all the people who were owed money had to take what was offered or take nothing if Derby went bankrupt.
The EFL won’t let Derby splash Clowes cash incase he does the same as Mel Morris.  It’s up to Clowes to show the EFL that he’s not going to be reckless.  
So any slight loosening of financial restrictions would be welcome.  But they won’t lift loads or the other clubs will kick off again.

You really should have aimed better.

I hope so, I like Burton me.

Not if we're all off farming and train driving. 
Just imagine the arguments that must go happen on those forums!
Arable vs Livestock, organic vs chemical, steam vs diesel? 
It'd make our Brexit thread look like a chimps tea party.

You probably have to pay to download the new livery, or wait and unlock it by manning a picket line for 30 days.

You lot were heard on RamsTV, very impressive, some trip that on a Tuesday night. Respect to you all.

Let’s hope the players haven’t gone for a Burton at full time. 🫣

I'll just leave this here!
 

Wasn’t a barn door I see.
