Thankfully that is just the temporary netting they use for shooting practice in the North stand so Washington doesn't hit Rita in row Z.

As an employee of the Ministry of Justice, a criminal prosecution could cost me my job. Or it would if I wasn't retired!!!!!

Perhaps the solution is for the club to announce should we win or draw Adams will sign a new contract, pre-contract or whatever after the final whistle as long as fans stay off pitch

Not all of them, just those smelly lot from chad.

Nice to see Jewell's defence meeting up again after all this time.

Right, obviously not everyone will be happy with whatever happens so here’s a compromise. Assuming we get whatever is needed to get us promoted, at the final  whistle the scoreboard clock is reset, the inevitable pitch invasion starts and you have 5 minutes exactly to get your instagram photos or whatever. Then a siren is sounded and the police dogs are unleashed to sort out anyone left on the pitch. Sorted.

But... but... those peasants are revolting! 

I won't be on the pitch, I'm sitting near my mum. She gave me a right bollocking last time she caught me on the pitch, in 1983.

Tbf I’m not sure you have been his top critic 

I don't hate Paul Warne, he is a very likeable person and I enjoy watching his interviews.
My problems have always been with his recruitment and tactics.
Quite comical I know given we are 2nd and a point away from promotion, but this really is a very poor division and we have made things more difficult than they needed to be, just my opinion.
In terms of recruitment, to be fair to Paul, who knows how he will be free of restrictions, he may well have had 10 top players lined up this season and the club weren't able to do the business.
And tactics, we have had so many injuries (partly down to poor recruitment), but Paul has had to adjust given the situations he was finding himself in.
I've been his top critic, but if he wins promotion Saturday he has earnt his chance and more...I'd be happy to see how we recruit in the summer and see where we are come October type.

Assuming Peterborough win in the week, what a stinker of a game for both clubs last game.
Both would have a chance of top 2, albeit a slim one.
Both would know realistically that Derby should be beating Carlise and both would have an eye on the playoffs.  Neither would want to risk losing key players to injuries or suspension going hell for leather for a slim chance of automatics.
This surely is our time.
 
 

Steve Morgan Redrow would be my guess.

Couldn’t find a standalone Clowes thread, so started this one. As someone who was very much in the Warne Out camp and thought Clowes was making a mistake for keeping him on, I have to hold my hands up and say he was bang on to hold his nerve and not be swayed by an increasing amount of hostility.
I still have my thoughts on how the club should be run differently, but we can save those for another day. I may have missed it, but this man needs a proper song ASAP.

Remember when we only needed a draw at home against reading for the play offs. This is Derby county, anything can happen. 
mind you, do you remember that season where Forest were safe in the play offs unless there was a 6 goal swing from Stoke or someone. That was a good day. Watching goal after goal after goal go in from Stoke. Let’s not give Forest fans a good day like that. 

The problem with offering opponents the opportunity to take a draw is that football is full of cheats, and nobody can be trusted. 
No disrespect to Carlisle specifically, or indeed their much respected manager, but they'd probably nick a winner in the dying moments, then point and laugh at us!
Kill em off early I say.  Win, win, and thrice win!

Football has been dire at times, but its a results business and fair play to Paul, he has got the results...I just hope we can finish the job now.
I thought we would finish 7th, I was wrong, I thought Paul would be sacked before the end of the season, I was wrong.  Its lovely being wrong at times!
Regardless of my personal feelings on the manager situation, what is deserving of so much credit is that we are in this position despite the huge amount of injuries we have sustained this season, to key players as well.
Paul has earnt his chance and I really hope we get to see him smiling talking to Owen after achieving what I never thought he was capable of doing.
Over to ariotofmyown to tell me why I am such an @rsehole 😆

Absolutely. I’m 59 (today) and was lucky enough to witness from 1969 onwards. As I’ve told my sons, wring every ounce of celebration because success is rare in football. It’s just that we had a glut of it in the 1970’s. So, celebrate hard when it comes @DarkFruitsRam7. 

Anybody under the age of 27/28 has never witnessed an automatic promotion for Derby County.
Quite a sobering thought, really.

Already did it when it was 16/1...I'm definitely chucking another tenner on.
My betting luck is abysmal so I see it as taking one for the team.
