I think it’s a good game for him to come back in, he’s got that experience and calmness about him that could be vital today. 

I'm old enough to remember the must not lose game to Sheff Weds to stay in the Championship. They were having a whip-round in Sheffield for a Fozzy statue such was his marking for two of the Owls goal. Fingers crossed it was a one off. 

Billy played in the first game I saw against Leeds in 1964. RIP Billy. 

With Roy Keane in cloud cuckoo land. Problem is CK is here too. ?

How much added time?

Not just a great win but beating the best team in the division will do wonders for this squad. We still live in hope. COYR.

Will I need alcohol for this or not, that's all I need to know. 

First love for me was Frank Upton but for anyone of my generation all bets were off when King Kevin Hector arrived.

I guess we wait and see, but I can't stress how much I REALLY didn't want to see this come to fruition.

I really don't like the idea of a guy who is openly far right, with limited cash of his own, coming in to become the figure head of a unknown consortium. A 29-year-old at that. 

This very much looks like a nail in the coffin to me, rather than anything I can be optimistic about. If you're anything but concerned then I would really like to know what you know, because this is a bigger red flag than the fake Shiekh in my opinion. 

 

He's got form with the right has Mel....

Who's ITK. Is this a good thing?

Looks like he had a good season last season. 16 goals in 34 games. 

Before that not so good. 

34 goals in 134 games for his previous 2 clubs. 

Hopefully we've identified the right type of player for our system and he fits right in. 

Sounds like Nick Blackman mark 2. ?

The player second from the right in the row of five players is Harry Storer, he played for the Rams between 1921 to 1928 he was capped for England twice,he also played cricket for Derbyshire. But more importantly for me he was manager of the Rams when I first started supporting them without going with my dad, in 1955, He was a no nonsense manager and Brian Clough modeled himself on Storer. Even though we were in the third division north I loved those times and I have never lost my love of Derby County. UTR 

The title of the excellent book about Cloughie "They Never Say Thank You" was the pearl passed on to Clough when he asked Storer for advice about going into management I believe.
