    It may be just what Billy needs.  Less responsibility.  Seem to remember similar happened with Wayne Madsen.  You wouldn't want to see Wayne go anywhere else.  I say stick with Billy, he might come good again. ??

    I was more than happy with Liam Rosenoir as our manager, interim or otherwise. I believe he would have got this bunch of players purring, he seemed to have respect from all of them, the kids from the academy as well as the more experienced pros who he signed recently.
    I have no doubt whatsoever that we would have been a proper contender for promotion, I was genuinely looking forward to this team gelling and starting to perform while seeing Liam grow into the role.  He will be a top Manager one day.
    It is what it is. Mr. Clowes has made his call and I will be behind Paul Warne from the first match. In fact, I'll be arguing to give him more time when some of us who wanted Liam gone will want Warne gone if we don't win every match.

    If we didn’t have stats, we’re just grown men watching other grown men kick a ball.

    I can visualise them at a 'brainstorming' session all sat round a table in some exclusive London pad.
    Clueless, much like most UK leaders/managers in every sense of the word.

    Why do clubs allow all this standing? What happens if somebody wants to go to an away match who cannot stand for that long?

    Really good day out.  Nice people, nice beer.  I think Shropshire seem to have a lot of connections with Worcestershire.  Not sure but I think Pennington was at Shropshire.  Like you say though, worth a look.

    Surely when they wanted Wayne to have the freedom of the city, it was this Wayne that they meant.

    Great recovery. Masood being so Masoody has overshadowed the amount of runs Madsen has scored this season as well. He really is fantastic and let’s hope he keeps going for a few more years yet.

    Scoring 70 from 31 balls or whatever it was, show there is 2-3 years in this dog yet.

    The major downside (for me) to the T20 game is it tends to attract people who think they are at a football game. I’m all for enjoying yourself but keep it respectful, that’s what crickets all about.

    SKHunter reacted to Macintosh in Andrew Ward, son of Tim Ward   
    A lot won't know who he is, and some may not know who Tim Ward is, but I think it deserves a mention. Sadly, Andrew passed away recently after a battle against cancer and dementia. He had already won a previous battle against cancer.
     
    Tim Ward was one of Derby's greatest players. Signing for the Rams just before the outbreak of war, and missing the Cup Final because of national duty. His time in Germany saw him miss all but one game of Derby's 1946 FA Cup campaign. He played 238 times for us, and also gained two England caps as a right-half. He later left to play for Barnsley. His managerial career started oddly, having been appointed manager at Exeter. However, Barnsley had not released him and appointed him their manager eight days later. He won promotion for them from the Third Division and was there for eight seasons. He then managed Grimsby and got them out of the Third Division. For five years he was Derby's manager, signed Kevin Hector, and a lot of the team that went on to gain promotion under Clough: Durban, Webster, Boulton and Daniel. After a short stint as Carlisle manager he is to thank for the Ex-Rams charity matches, and the formation of the Derby County Former Player's Association in 1991.
     
    Where does Andrew fit into this. Well he was an accomplished author, and he co-authored The Derby County Story with Anton Rippon in 1983. It was hugely successful and following soon was the Derby County Complete Record and the success of Breedon Books, whose importance to the world of football publishing cannot be ignored.
