Kept refreshing and managed to bag a ticket for Shrewsbury after half an hour. 

Not really wanting to go down the politics road but wasn't HS2 Labour's idea and announced by their Labour Secretary of State for Transport in 2010?

But he didn't. You might just as well say Barks was close to heading in his chance.

I don't dislike Korey Smith, he's just slow. Both to release the ball most of the time, but also across the ground. This has always been exacerbated by playing with Hourihane, usually. I don't think we can support a midfield of both. Play him with Fornah and Bird, and he can be useful - as long as he releases the ball quicker than he did on Saturday.

There were also suggestions that it had all been originally prompted by the EU's TEN-T programme which aims to have High Speed Rail in all member countries - though Brexit has obviously blurred/removed that requirement.....

I reckon they'll be gone before kick off anyway given they go on sale tomorrow to the 5+ category. So there shouldn't be any conflict of interest😀

I've just googled it and there seems to be one on worldfootball.net

I amused that you think this 39 billion of infrastructure spending will actually happen. There are no plans, it was a hastily cobbled together list because a rival leaked the HS2 decision. 

You've announced your new user name - but what was your response to the opening post?

Not sure PW told them to give the ball to the opposition!😉

An update for people hoping tickets will go to the next phase.
After half an hour of sales this morning, tickets available.
Shrewsbury 440.
Stevenage 211.
 

It's also, IMO, down to the ability to remain anonymous behind a keyboard. I'm certain, that if we were discussing it around a pint down the pub or a coffee at the cafe, most would react with more tact, sensitivity, calmness and accepting of others opinions. 

It's weird because there are a couple of posters on the forum who I've had grave doubts over whether they actually were 'Derby' at all due to their continually negative posts - I'd have thought this thread would have given them the perfect platform to set out the reasoning behind their negativity, but no - absolute silence from both - perhaps there is no reason for the things they post other than attention seeking.....

Good to see the BBC have got their facts right again. 😀

I love it when refs and Lino’s get compliments. Mind you, it’s usually when we win 🤪. Not that I am biased or anything !

Yes, just watched it, same as at our ground, the game stopped and was observed by fans, players and officials.

A quick shout out to those who normally get a rough deal on here. Referee and Linesmen. Don’t recall a lot wrong from them yesterday. Credit where it is due?

I did say "most". I had you in mind when I said that. 😄

So you are seriously advocating the sacking of a manager, regardless of who he is, on the result of one game.

About time they dropped Smith. Rubbish player.

To be fair to Waggy, it seemed to go where he wanted it to, and if so then his roof-of-the-net finish suggests that he is playing with confidence at the moment. When strikers are desperately short of confidence they tend to go very safe which often makes things worse by putting it in the keeper's saveable range.
