    Burnley will be in serious financial trouble now. Irrespective of parachute payments,  the buyout last year means the club has massive debt.

    I think Hearts might run them close tomorrow.
    Unfortunately, the gulf in revenues mean there won't be a title challenge in my lifetime, but the cups are up for grabs. 
    The clubs are desperate for any money this year. I pay £244 per year for a DNA membership, which was setup to help fund transfers and youth development. 
    In return I get % off the club shop, discounted tickets and a replica home or away shirt every season plus a gift.
    I received my renewal phone call from the club today and I said I wasn't sure if I was renewing this year. Straight away he knocked £100 off the price. They'd had loads of people saying that with the increased cost of living they had to sacrifice something. 
    I reckon loads of clubs will face the same issue.

    Yes, those 2 look good on the CV. 
    The Munich team featured a load of the Spain 82 West German runners up, and the Madrid team had plenty of the Spain squad plus Steilike and our friend from the city ground Metgod. 
    He really was a remarkable manager and learned loads from his spell in Aberdeen. Probably his most valuable lesson was the way he treated his young stars. He encouraged his Aberdeen players to play at all costs, get injections and play through the pain barrier. They played week in week out, and never really hit the heights after Aberdeen
    When Giggs, Beckham, Scholes, Neville etc came through he nurtured them in the early years so that they had more longevity.

    Friday 6th May 2022.
    1 x Aberdeenshire Ram attended this weekend.
    I caught the over night megabus from Aberdeen to Meadowhall. Set off at 17:45 Thursday night and arrived in Meadowhall at 04:10. I then caught the first train to Sheffield followed by the first train to Derby arriving in Derby about 07:00.
    I went straight to Pride Park to take some early morning photos.
    The afternoon was spent in The Silk Milk followed by the Worm Has Turned before enjoying seeing The Wedding Present supported by Liines at the Derby Venue.
    Saturday 7th May 2022. Derby County 0 Cardiff City 1 (Hughill 55) 
    I spent the morning wandering around Derby with a stop off at Uncle Toms Cabin for a Roll with Sausage and a black tea. I had a look in the window of 80s Casual Classics shop and recognised a book. I popped into the church and enjoyed a wonderful display of doves hanging from the ceiling. Strolled passed the Dolphin and The Silk Mill and popped by The Museum. Loved the walk along the river seeing a bloke paddle boarding and a few rowing teams on the river. I arrived at the ground and saw Radio Derby were chatting to Adam Bolder, so I had a quick chat with Adam before entering East Stand Lower Block D, Turnstile 33-38, Stair 36, Row NN, Seat 317 to see Derby County play their last game in The Championship before life in Division One.
    I met up with my mates after the game and drank the Saturday night away in The Smithfield, The Exeter, Seven tars and The Greyhound. Early start on the Sunday included the National Express bus at 07:15 to Luton Airport via Leicester and with a flight back to Aberdeen at 17:15, arriving back into Aberdeen at about 18:30.

    I think it counts still for the younger players if they are in your 1st team squad, so u21's call ups etc.
    That said, the World Cup obviously limits the teams involved so in our current squad only Bielik is involved at the minute

    Yep.......I watched it, and thought well said Paul Merson, say it how it is, and not what they tell you to say.
    It was like music to my ears............plus we were the best team on and off the pitch today, again, by a country mile.
    I'm proud to be a Derby County fan, al ways have been, always will be, and nobody will ever take that away from me.
    Well done Derby County Football Club.

    So, I'm thinking Mike Ashley might just start to get a tingle that we're distressed enough.
    I'm resigned to the -15 and relegation. I'm not going to feel good about any upcoming deal, just relief it's over.

    Got some new bookcases as I was running out of space and my gf helped put them up. Then we both enjoyed pancakes and started stacking the books. Been feeling quite blue recently so it's been the best day I've had in a good while
