I read a couple of headlines from Derbyshire Live this morning:
"Nigel Clough wades in on Derby County struggles ahead of Crunch Clash"
"David Clowes sent Derby County transfer message by 'uber-paranoid' Paul Warne"
These are just sensationalist headlines for what purpose? Nigel Clough certainly didn't "wade" in and I am sure Paul Warne speaks with David Clowes on an almost daily basis and he is fully aware of Derby's requirements in the transfer window. 
Although in my 70s, I do try to keep up with technology as far as I can. I can't help but think that we are starting to live in a pretty toxic society, where many people want to voice their opinions about all sorts of topics and people on the Social Media. I have no problem with that per se, provided the opinions are based on fact or reasonable assumptions. I have no time for people who just seek sensationalism, winding people up or make hurtful, personal comments about others. I am happy for criticism of actual behaviour but not personal character assassination. Just imagine how you would feel if it was you who was the subject of these comments. You don't know the effect such comments can have on people -suicide, mental health issues or maybe just want a transfer away!
This Forum has voiced a few of those after the first couple of games of the season. There should be criticism of the team's and  individual's performances but please let's avoid personal, sensitive comments especially when these cannot be backed up with hard facts.
"Kane Wilson couldn't cross a road"  "scariest thing is we have bought two central defender who can't play football" "I guarantee Waghorn would have missed Wigan's first goal" "can stick his f****** why all up his arse" "Bird is more sparrow than golden eagle. An exhibition player not willing to break sweat. I'll drive him to Hull myself" "We've got a pub team manager in charge of a jugganaught" "Bradley has the mobility of a superglued traffic cone"
These were from just 2 posts on the Forum.
I'm not a prude but can we just think about what we are writing about and to other individuals. Hopefully, we all want all our players and staff to bring success to the Club - so lets show our support. 

Yes I have been but gone to catch my bus avoiding the inevitable. 🥺

Already guilty of that after adding du Plooy to my cricket draft fantasy team, breaking my “no Derbyshire players” rule. They always have shockers/get injured when I put them in 😬

I haven’t mentioned signing Liam Kitching for at least a week.
I was doing so well until you had to bring up Barnsley 😂

Saw quite a few making use of this "freedom", including one or two who looked like they would be suffering the day after!

I fully expect to be ridiculed, but I stand by my prediction that Collins will comfortably score 20+ goals this season !! 
The future’s bright, the futures Black & White !! 🐏🤗

Bubbles?

Massive respect to everyone who travels for the Rams home games. I spent nearly 20 years in a similar position but the efforts of @Inverurie Ram and @MadAmster to pick two are way above and beyond the call of duty.
I am though slightly disappointed that after two decades of an inferiority complex because I didn’t have a season ticket, I’m now not allowed to be smug 😂
And finally capitalists? You mean like the ones that have done such a fine job of running the country over the past five years? Here’s an idea. I’m not likely to move my 9 year old son and myself from the North (West) stand into the South Stand at any point regardless of capacity or pricing. How does that fit with your immutable laws of supply and demand? Thought so.

Coming out of retirement and signed for Worksop Town at 40.

So why did they call it the Baseball Ground ?
That’s why !
Derby baseball team, English Baseball Champions circa 1898
I believe that is Steve Bloomer back row who played in the team.

Will only be around 50 people there for that, and they will be asleep so shouldn’t matter

Oh Mr Beeching

Ouch, no need to be so prickly. There’s no way you can defend that shitshow today and I’ve been following us for over 50 years.

Probably the best ref at pride park this season I reckon. Not an expert but just saying.
