Old Spalding Ram

For those of a nervous disposition regards Saturday………here’s some chill medicine! 👍😁
Review of the match, pinched from the Carlisle forum.
Derby need a point for promotion and this can do funny things to you mentally. However, some pointers which may settle them down somewhat. There is staggering 69 point gap between the sides. They’re +78 ahead of us on goal difference. Home record for Derby, played 22, won 14, drawn 4, lost 4 – scored 39, conceded 18. Two of those home defeats came in August against Wigan and Oxford. They also lost against Peterborough on New Year’s Day and Charlton at the end of February – but since then have won their last five home games.
Last but not least, we have a Derby legend running our team. He has more appearances for the Rams and scored more goals than for any other club. Is he really going to be trying to win this fixture and potentially deny them promotion? Hmm…
Derby’s a decent away day, so those of you lucky enough to be in attendance - please take a second to take it all in, it may be a very long time before we “enjoy” a Saturday afternoon fixture in the sun at ground and club like this again, so make the most of it.

…………..all seems fair comment to me. 👍

Blackpool please - certainly one of the better awaydays and decent fans.

Just so you know, it ain't cool to bear grudges.  It ain't mature to swear in public.  It ain't uplifting to dwell on previous negatives.  It is not sagacious to disrespect the hierarchy.  
 
But come Saturday, from 90:00 and throughout the additional minutes... with the resuscitated Rams on the verge of a new life... throw all that in the bin, and let's give 'em the rousiest, passionest, Black & Whitest, most heartfeltest rendition of "They docked us 21 points..." British football has ever... EVER... witnessed.
 
To hell with dignity!  🐏

Pinched from the Posh forum, from a Bolton fan.
Can you play the same team on Saturday please because if nothing else it will put the frighteners under Derby. Whilst it’s unlikely Carlisle will do them you just never know in football. We’ve all been there, games we needed to get a result in but the longer it goes the more the pressure increases. A 3-0 win for Wanderers against your reserves and Carlisle pop in a 95th minute winner would go down very well in North Lancashire. ?
Meanwhile, in the real world.
………………….here’s Ferguson and Evatt! 👍😂

From the BBCs Simon Stone.
BBC Sport has been told Nottingham Forest made contact with PGMOL on Friday to highlight the potential for Nuno Espirito Santo being asked about Stuart Attwell’s appointment in his weekly press conference that afternoon.
As it turned out, the subject was not raised in the press conference. 
It is being stressed that at no point were PGMOL asked to change the appointment or that Forest had an issue with Attwell’s involvement in the game.
From the original Forest tweet.
We warned the PGMOL that the VAR is a Luton fan before the game but they didn’t change him.
 
Looks like they never even enquired about Attwell being dropped! …..🤡🤡

Pinched from a grumpy forum member from you know where.
If Carragher thinks it doesn’t matter what club an official supports I hope Liverpool have a known Man United fan reffing their game every week for a decade.

We shouldn’t have to put out a statement like that but we’ve been screwed over almost weekly for a year now and it’s a disgrace.

More of the ‘small teams’ should tell the FA and PL what they think of the blatant bias being shown to certain teams.

Why is small teams in single quotation marks? 👍😁
 

baguettes, cor that’s posh!
 
By the time I get home I’ll be celebrating promotion with a chippy tea!👍😁
