v Ethiopia finished 0-0

If we ever needed a rallying call………….from last April v Burton. Well calling all derby fans to get really really really behind the lads we need get behind the lads lets have wall of noise and have sea of black and white let's have scafs flags and balloons let's cheer lads on into the play offs. COYR 🐏

I think you’re spot on there StaffsRam. I wouldn’t be surprised if both Sibley & Nyambe have got their agents on manoeuvres and as of yet no word on trying to extend John-Jules loan. I hope there’s a Baldrick down Pride Park who has a “cunning plan more cunning than cunning can be”

Harsh……………………..but fair! 😁

…………….count me in as well.

They could be wrong. I was told that David Clowes has nothing to do with MM but Mel has connections with others. The story on the podcast was all about jobs being hived off to other companies newly set up in 2016, comment was just throwaway line as had the call a few days before? Ex Chairman has connections with previous club shock! Maguire was the go to “expert” for BBC Radio Derby sports journalists during administration. ……………….I’m saying nowt!

Classic B4 rallying call prior to the Burton match last April. Well calling all derby fans to get really really really behind the lads we need get behind the lads lets have wall of noise and have sea of black and white let's have scafs flags and balloons let's cheer lads on into the play offs. The louder we are the better lads play. Let burton players shake with fear and let them think what on earth have we got our selfs into here. ……………….no further comment required!

One of my favourite B4 moments, from the Jason Knight transfer thread. B4……………That could be made up anywere if clubs want to bid that means a bidding warn we should get 15m. Redcar………If we get £15m for JK you can have my house He’d of made a bloody great players agent. RIP pal.

A few comments from the Barnsley forum regards James Collins Aye, proper dark arts. He made a fool of Mael and Williams all game. He old manned us unfortunately. Absolutely disgusting tackle on de Gevigney in the first 15 and our players just stood doing double teapots. James Collins. Lucky not to be sent off in first 20mins. Flopped over in the box for the pen, scored from a millimeter out, led with his elbow for every aerial challenge. Yet got man of the match? If we could afford him he's exactly what we need(we cant). Always a threat with goals and his dark arts are a massive part of his game. One of those you hate to play against but would love in your team. …………….that’s more like it! 😄

Wonderful Mucker……………..deserves a thread of its own👍🐏

He’s gone to that great changing room in the sky, no doubt biging up his beloved Rams. RIP pal….you didn’t half make me smile.

How it should be done. The 2023-24 Vitesse Airborne shirt is dedicated to the landmark ‘Windows on the Past’ on the Ginkelse Heide near Ede. It is made up of claret and blue stripes with lines claret coloured lines running through the blue stripes representing the threads of the parachutes and the lines of gunshots fired at the paratroopers. Vitesse stadium

Im expecting Bird and maybe Sibley to be “off in January” do we leave them out?👍

Bradley ahead of Cashin …………….…….am I missing something!

You can only play what’s in front of you and there were some encouraging performances from the youngsters on view last night. What I don’t quite get is the comparison of Wolves youngsters to those of Man City from last seasons drubbing. Bit of an update on that Man City starting eleven :- Borges (hat trick and destroyed right back Rooney) sold to Ajax £17m Shea Charles sold to Southampton for £12m Rico Lewis & Oscar Bobb have both appeared in the Champions League & Premier League Katongo (Peterborough), Breckin (Wycombe) and Burns (Stevenage) all out on loan to League 1 clubs They also payed 350k for the 18 year old goalkeeper van Sas. How the other half live……………………...anyway, back to the real world!

pick the bones out of that lot!
