I can't keep track of all the sub genres nowadays. Post post math metal core, neo gothic shoegaze etc... I swear music journalists just invent them to sound important.

Nah. He was averaging 1 in 4 at that level. Then the tubster who never trained bust his ankle when he turned up, stuck him out on the wing and the next bloke stuck him at full back.  Warne comes in and demands he runs a lot clearing up everyone's s*** for the afternoon, including constantly chasing back and covering the wingbacks who weren't and couldn't defend.   Strangely he gets goals when played in the position he started with 4 years ago. 

does anyone else get a gut-wrench when they watch these nostalgic videos? A stadium I can never attend again, players I can never enjoy watching live again, a standard of footballer for Derby I am unlikely to see again. In innocence and level playing-field financially that we will never experience again. 
It actually hurts me watching this, and I pine to be back in those days.

I remember thinking there's no way we weren't getting promoted after that game. That was a decent Wolves team and we blew them away.

Not quite, I think a modernist version of football would need to be far more subversive. No ball, no players, concrete instead of grass, some dog dirt in the centre circle, and a 3000 word abstract to explain the profound deconstruction of the game. Warneball at least tries to paint a picture, it's just a fairly utilitarian picture.

Anyone who can achieve a good defensive record whilst playing alongside Claude Davis has to be top class.

I swear one of Manel's goals that day was an attempted PNE clearance that went in off his, not inconsiderable, backside.

USA womens team and their arrogance

Not like Jamie Ward.  He used too wind up teams on the pitch.  That's all good. He's had an issue with Derby based on one dicks comment in reaction to something he posted about the club after we drew with Forest while he was on loan.  He totally disregarded the efforts made by countless Derby fans supporting his charity with his arsy one liners.  Regarding those chants.  He actually got those against Hull the week before as well, ours was the copycat. Not pleasant, I'll search for the footage of him hoping they wind up in League 1 and how much he loves scoring against them.  

I was at this match as a ten year old with my ipswich supporting Dad.
At the end of the game, a Rams fan put me on his shoulders and walked me up Portman Road with the away crowd. One of my favourite ever matches. 

Is it worth it ? It’s clear that unless any of these topics are an echo chamber a little mob go all out to destroy any debate and topics are locked or deleted 🤷🏻‍♂️, would be happy to put the alternative view with you and posters who can behave but that’s not how it works , perhaps mods just need to 100% not allow this stuff ?

I think he's set to be playing for Scunny in the national league north, so he might be out of our price range.

That's got me thinking ... is Butterfield available ? Seeing as we are getting the band back together ❤️ 

Is this also a clever metaphor for the potential sale of Max Bird? The end of finesse and grace in the pursuit of high speed Warneball?

I'm enjoying the amount of Romanticism. Dismissing Picasso as 'modern nonsense' is a little silly and his sense of beauty in art is narrow.
I do agree that current trends in art allow poor examples to be celebrated just because they are 'modern'. However, maybe 150 years ago, people in coffee houses were having the same conversations about impressionism. 
I guess he sees beauty as timeless and not fashionable.  Replace 'art' with 'music' and the contrast is even larger.
 

I really love this lecture from Scott Burdick. It's a refutation of the aesthetic and intellectual value of modern art. Burdick also shares some interesting theories as to why modernism is so all pervasive with critics and galleries. It also has some shameless self promotion of his own work, but since I'm very much a fan I see that as a bonus.

Wish I could do giffs 

To be fair, we were really good before Arthur came in…🤔

Great idea for the new game. Can’t wait to get the answer only to scroll down and see somebody else got it about 3 hours before me

Mel Sage?

Thanks for this thread @admira. It's been a fun excuse to jog the memory about some great players and to kvetch about the players I didn't like.

The origins of this are pretty funny. It's a joke from an internet forum where the users decided to try to fool the media into falsely reporting this by spreading rumours that the three extended fingers in the "ok" gesture represent a "w" for white, whilst the circle and wrist is a "p" for power. Obviously it worked like a charm because modern media is chock full of lazy hacks who don't check sources and only care about clickbait.

The OK hand gesture used by divers internationally and is widely available as an imoji is apparently now a hate sign used by white supremacists.

524. Current club not displayed. The managerial career of an ex Rams manger.
Well, this day had to come sometime. Over the past 19 months I've covered every possible ex Ram player from the 'modern' era, several managers and a couple of the current squad but have now exhausted the options.
I'm having the weekend off and then have an idea for something else. Thanks to all of you who have joined in, it was hard to catch anyone out as the Rams fans are so knowledgeable. I think Floyd Streete was about the only one that I had to reveal.
