    EtoileSportiveDeDerby got a reaction from Dai Capp in Wiil you be disappointed if we finish outside the top 2???   
    There was a point when i thought will we see the Rams at PP again? 
    We will and that is plenty for me, Football fans have got very short memories but we shouldn't forget how bleak it was off the field those past few months. Let's enjoy the season and see where it takes us

    Gives away too many free kicks and penalties, due to his poor technique. 
    He puts his left leg in, then pulls his left leg out, in, out, in, out, shakes it all about.

    Absolutely. That ^. 48 hours is a long time in football. It’s tremendous that we’ve attracted 12 signings given where we were 2 weeks ago. If it wasn’t for DC, we’d still be in Admin, and the scrap merchants would be parking their vans in MM’s space outside the front entrance and kicking the Dave McKay statue to assess its scrap value. Seriously. 
    Suddenly expectations are ramping up - & there’s the danger. What we need to do is ask what has seen us suddenly attract new life blood and realise it’s the collective unity & positivity and when we’re 0-2 down to OUFC at half-time, re-surface that collective spirit that made the football world think “wow - why the positivity in the midst of melt-down?!”. 
     
    The answer is unconditional support. Let’s keep that lesson alive. Remember the calls for invading the pitch? Trashing Middlesbrough? Setting fire to EFL HQ in Preston? Utterly futile and negative. Collective positive support will build belief. Not high expectations followed by disapproval if we don’t achieve it in 10 games.

    My first question would be have you tried clearing your cache?
    If not and before doing so, can you try loading the forum in a private browser window first.
    Now if that all looks fine, you will need to clear your cache.
    If not, try an alternative browser like Chrome.
    I'm afraid there is no way to offer different versions of the software per member, we have one set of files for everyone.

    Switch it off and on again, always works for me.

    Yes to all of that. I found it particularly tough to deal with as the timing mirrored my dads sudden decline with dementia. The day we went into admin was the first "come now please" urgent call from my mum. Derby was mine and dad's thing together and unbelievably bad Derby news usually coincided with bad dementia days. Dad is now stable, settled and as happy as he will be in lovely residential care right near us and he still loves to chat Derby although often muddled. He has told the care staff some horrendous tall stories about it all! Attendance obviously reduced a lot last year in the circumstances (hence my total annoyance at those making comments about part-time fans - just count your blessings you can attend when you want) but was so happy to get season tickets on the first day of sale. Really excited about the season ahead.

    EtoileSportiveDeDerby reacted to CBRammette in Wayne Rooney   
    Dont really get this generally for family or professional reasons. The new family home seems to be finally done, the boys seem settled in schools and football academies, extended family close enough and they seem to have a good group of friends - raising 4 kids away from that seemed tough for them before based on what they have stated publicly. Then when he left Wayne said he would be building on his football coaching knowledge as well as getting his badges finalised. This move career wise seems really odd too.  There's something we are not aware of and possibly will never be aware of but otherwise it doesnt make any sense. Probably bit like this post. 
    By the way loved what Wayne did here last season (and the rest of the team behind the scenes) but freedom of city seemed ridiculous before and seems more so now he's cleared off
