  1. I was there on that wonderful night and broke my glasses celebrating.It must be an omen that I bumped into him a couple of weeks ago when we were both dog walking.Lovely bloke and we both agreed it was never a penalty but who cares!!
  2. I know we're at home and should be on the front foot from the off but I'd want at least one of my full backs to be able to defend.Nyambe and Fozzy are big misses for us.
  3. Always good to get an experienced striker in,albeit one whose pace has lessened.Does he go straight in after 4 days of training ?( he meets the squad tomorrow) or do we use him as an impact player ? Looking forward to the debate regarding what formation most fans expect us to use to accommodate him.Pleased he's joined and hope he's got 5/6 goals in his locker,could be the difference between automatic promotion or the play offs πŸ™
  4. You'll also have heard Warne say a striker was lined up with 4 hrs of the window left and all parties were ok with the move until his manager suddenly changed his mind.
  5. You're using facts and logic-that'll confuse a few on here!
  6. https://www.facebook.com/share/v/td2AvQBpFKQCKpxx/?mibextid=WC7FNe
  7. Loan with guarantee we buy for Β£500k ? Hope Blackburn aren’t as stubborn as the Wendies https://footballleagueworld.co.uk/bolton-wanderers-barrier-blackburn-rovers-niall-ennis-pursuit/
  8. Why do you think Oxford, one of our promotion rivals,would sell us Cameron Brannagan,one of the top midfield players in this division for anything less than the Β£2m he's been conservatively valued at ? Id love him at Derby but it's never going to happen,sadly.
  9. I had to check it wasn't @Caerphilly Ramthat made those comments ! .He's usually more positive than that and ,more often than not,will put forward a balanced and unjaundiced view.
  10. Probably Callum Lang-he's off to Portsmouth
  11. Got a couple of workers next to him for a welcome change
  12. Blimey,is Warne training them that hard?!
  13. Or waiting for EFL ratification-they don’t work weekends
  14. It's amazing what we remember from 60 years ago but what we forget from 60 days ago!!πŸ˜…
  15. I'm sure from my Latin teachings we live in hope was my version but it was a long time ago so I'll bow to your version
  16. Wash your mouth out!!πŸ˜…Maldini is arguably one of the best defenders in the game's history and,one of the quickest. " Paolo Maldini, the legendary Italian footballer who spent the majority of his career with AC Milan, is widely regarded as one of the greatest defenders in the history of the sport. His versatility allowed him to excel in both the left-back and center-back positions over the course of his long and illustrious career. Left Back (Earlier Career): In the early stages of his career, Maldini primarily played as a left-back. He was known for his exceptional speed, agility, and ability to contribute to both defense and attack from the left flank. Maldini's technical skills and defensive prowess made him one of the best left-backs in the world during this period. Center Back (Later Career): As he aged, Maldini transitioned to playing as a center-back. Despite the change in position, he continued to excel. His experience, football intelligence, and reading of the game allowed him to adapt seamlessly to the demands of central defense. Maldini's leadership and composure at the back were instrumental in Milan's successes during this period.
  17. Yes ,I do and you're one of the posters I usually agree with most ! Totally agree with your comment re the tiredness of the central defenders after the recent punishing schedule.Looking forward to the rest of this season and trying to temper my enthusiasm as you know what it's like being a Derby fan.As someone once said,"it's the hope that kills you!"
  18. I do respect everyone's right to an opinion but I do feel that comparison is a tad OTT! If I was picking my all time Derby side ,having followed them since 1964, then my three central defenders would be Todd,Stimac and McFarland.I like Cashin's determination but Todd was light years ahead of him.However,each to their own.
  19. I love his passion and whole hearted commitment but when you watch Peterborough's winner again you'll see he got in Nelson's way and back headed it to their centre forward.His lack of height and genuine pace will stop him making the top grade I feel but there's a decent Championship defender in there.Happy to build our defence around him at this level.
