Its good to see that you've not written him off yet, despite him having already had 53 minutes worth of action from off the bench to impress you and, in them minutes, being instrumental in our winning goal against Port Vale. I'm sure he is very grateful for your continued support.

You need the extra 'syllable'.
I like the original, and it sounds grammatically correct, but I don't know. ?

I feel like it should say 'had saved us' but would be decent to get this going too

It’s been 100 days since this wonderful raggle taggle group of youngsters, aging journeymen and free transfers lost a game of football. 
You can’t fail to be proud of how far Clowes, Warne and the players have bought this club so quickly,  after some of the darkest days in the clubs history. 
It’d be great to get to 101 days tomorrow and the magic number of 20 games unbeaten. We all know what happened last time we achieved that! 
It’s also 112 days since our last home defeat. 

"...Warne said of the owner: "I think he's enjoying it. He was pretty buzzing with the Tuesday night game.
"Because he's a fan first and foremost, he can't stop smiling. It's a bit rude of me to speak for him, but I still think at times he can't believe he owns it and I know how proud that makes his dad because he was a massive Derby fan.
"And there's a part of it where he loves being up there, but misses being with the fans. In the same way when my wife and daughter comes to games, they sort of sit away from it a little bit whereas my son is full hoolie.
"He goes to every away game he can. He loves being on the terracing. In fairness, that game the other night when that winning goal goes in, there's nowhere else in the world I'd rather be than in that bit for that one minute. It's priceless.
"As an owner, you miss that because he would have been in there wouldn't he? So there's a bit of him going 'that's amazing' and another where he wants to run up and down the directors' box going woo-hoo.
"You would though wouldn't you because that's what he's done for the last 40 years of his life. But everything he touches turns to gold at the moment.
"If you own a football club for 20 years, there are bad times, horrendous times, good times and amazing times on a cycle. There's not one club in the Premier League who have had 20 years of joy. They've all had pain and suffering. But at the moment, if he's not in a good place now, and we haven't lost since October, I've got absolutely no chance have I?!"

Meanwhile back In the real world

Ok I think I didn’t explain it well the first time. Let me try again.
Derby appear to be the only club who have spent recklessly without any success.
If you go through the list.
Villa, QPR and Boro all spent beyond their means and got promoted.
Forest are spending future PL money and it seems like the gamble is working as they currently are out of the relegation places.
Portsmouth and Bolton didn’t spend recklessly (or future income) without success. Pompey won an FA Cup and made another final. Bolton played Europa League football.
Reading’s situation is different. They already had three years in the PL and two promotions. They have have wasted their parachute payments, but their struggles since are hardly comparable and they aren’t the only club to have wasted PP.
Sheffield Wednesday didn’t gamble anywhere near as much as Derby. But off all the clubs, perhaps their situation is of comparison.
The woe is me stuff is nonsense. 
Nobody feels sorry for Derby. We got what we deserved. 

Brennan Johnson's dad on screen again

Didzy is an absolute top guy. Saw him as he was leaving the ground tonight. Few people asking for pictures and autographs and a young lad asked him for an interview for his YouTube. He said no problem, but let him finish with everyone else first. Sure enough, told the kid to go over to the side out the way and answered all his questions and gave him several minutes of his time. Kid wasn’t a Derby fan either. 

This felt like a "we are going up" type of late win. Think it was Portsmouth we beat in last mins under Jim Smith that felt like it was on, likewise I remember a late Giles Barnes away winner in the Billy Davies promotion.
Those top 2 both are in our sights now. Next league game we are at home to Morecombe, Wednesday play Plymouth.
 

Just got home, I'm hoarse, got sore knees from too much bouncing and ringing in my ears from the absolute bonkers noise in the away end.
It's nights like these that David Clowes has given us back when they were so nearly taken away from us.
As for arguing about budgets and squad values, tonight of all nights!  There's only one thing you need to know - the togetherness of owner, squad, fans - it is priceless. 
 

He did it against Accrington too, gave the ball boy a wink and a smile when he told him to slow down with it. He got a laugh from us all 

Just a quick mention for Wildsmith and how he treats the ball boys during the game.  Told them today to slow down giving him the ball back, then gave them a fist bump to say thanks.  Class act.
Decent keeper and all…

He's been in the Estonia national side for years too! 
Likewise Simo Valakari's lad for Finland. 

Hate that guy.  Glad someone else remembers him.  That one and only full appearance against Everton has set us back years.

We've been through some tough times, when you put all the horrendous Covid stuff alongside the financial firestorm of the Morris era together we are lucky to have a club left to support.
But we have a fantastic club to support, we still have our wonderful, stressful, beautiful club to support.
We are averaging 26,000 in the third division. We are selling out most away games, we are Derby.
I love this football club, I love everything about DCFC. I love the history, I love people like @loweman2 doing all the stuff about shirts, @Inverurie Ram with his Rams flag thread, 
Whatever happens this season, whether we make the play offs or even sneak into the autos, it doesn't really matter. 
Being part of the DCFC family is what matters.  We are Derby. Enjoy every game you go to and get behind the team.

An air traffic controller I spoke to at EMA said that they'd never seen so many Fokkers in the air over Kegworth since January 1941.

Well I for one am absolutely gutted there’s going to be no Ian Botham.
