Looks like there's a leak in the sausage dam. That, or your sausage simply isn't long enough!

Kamara & Lane hopefully 😬

0-0

They did play Simply the Best when Sibley scored the other week, but nobody seemed to cotton on to it.

I didn't know that KRob can play LB too. Makes sense then.

I thought it strange that KRobinson was on the bench rather than DRobinson anyway, given DRob's extra experience and the fact that he covers multiple positions including centre back. Was he not available do you know?

We were told that we could recall him once the first 28 days of the loan had passed, due to it being a "youth loan". Get him back I say.

"Back on the grass" next week according to Paul Warne 👍

No way. I want it all wrapped up before a party against Carlisle on the last day.

Have we had an update lately about Max Bird? I do hope it's not the last time we've seen him in a Derby shirt.

Cobblers 0-2 Rams NML

It's supposed to be available at some point this evening. I hope so as there's been nothing to watch this week with the flaming international break.

Not my job to consider the wages. There's no rule that we have to offer the same or more wages is there? We can make what we consider a respectable offer then it's up to them, the same applies with any player. This will include Sibley who may well be on a high wage given he signed a new improved contract in the Mel Morris era.

Agreed, the only difference for me is I'm not against keeping Smith & Collins too. Hourihane & Waghorn have both reached the end of the line unfortunately.

I'd like to keep all of Fozzy, Smith, Barkhuizen & Collins as squad options even in the Championship. It's important to maintain some degree of continuity given the togetherness that's obviously been fostered within the squad.

Listening to the Rams Talk preview, the Northampton fan said their major weakness is at left back, where they have a gangly cumbersome player called Manny Monthe who is "a L2 centre back" filling in for their regular starter Patrick Brough who isn't up to much either... sounds like just the perfect game for Kane Wilson to play RWB and Mendez to drift out right from a forward position. He also said they are quite fragile at defending set pieces.... 😁

Spot on. This straight on picture has a foreshortening effect, so can end up showing what certain people want it to show. Very much like the disputed catches that can happen in cricket, that look different front on as opposed to side on.

Because the Ravens would have matched any offer, so it would have been a waste of time.

Lamar was never really available. Why would the Falcons, or any other QB-needy team, have done the Ravens negotiating for them when the Ravens would have just matched the offer made anyway.
