Thousands of fans running over the pitch might do damage to the playing surface. Actually, now I think about it, it would probably improve it.

I personally would love to go onto the pitch, like after the play-off semi against Brighton, but your last line is the reason we should sit tight - the EFL don’t need any encouragement.
And in light of Mucker’s latest post, I have seen our fans tanked up on booze and weed at Barnsley and it was a horrifying and embarrassing experience, so it most definitely is a “sit tight” from me. Wacky sweets weren’t so much of an issue during Mac 1.

That won't be easy with gloves on!

He keeps confusing him with Kane Ward.

Why? There are no insults of individuals here, just an observation of one of the factors that cost us dearly at Northampton.

Such as using the midfield?

Hi Duracell, we have a pair of ideal seats for you, we picked the seats because we're close to friends on the opposite side of the aisle.
We're stair 41, row kk, seats 398,399 immediately next to the aisle in the lower east in line with the edge of the centre circle on the south stand side of the half way line. Row kk is about 4 rows down from the entry stairs and the seats are on the right as you walk down to them.
We could meet you at the bottom of stair 41 in the concourse or you can just let me know your seat numbers.

Hi everyone,
My Dad, a life-long Derby fan and season ticket holder, recently suffered from a stroke which left the right side of his body paralysed. Up until it struck, he had made the 200-mile round trip from Aylsebury to Derby 
His progress has been remarkable since - he can how walk short distances and has gained a lot of mobility. 
I would love to take him to the final game of the season with Carlisle to see out the journey. I would be devastated for him if, having supported us through thick and thin all his life right up until the stroke, he missed out on us winning promotion. This is where some of you could potentially help.
Our season tickets are about as difficult as it could be for someone with mobility issues: East Stand Upper, on the half-way line, half-way between stair wells. I'm just not sure I can safely get him up there with a capacity crowd.
I am only asking having tried to arrange disabled viewing with the club, who cannot help as the game is sold out. Does anyone sit in a lower block, close to a stairwell, who would be willing to swap seats just for this game? I'm only asking as this is a final plea!

Good point. Having more than one route to goal. I don’t mind getting it wide and crossing it in if it works. But at the same time, if their defenders are winning everything in the air, trying through balls for a pacey wide men could pay dividends. The odd bobble could massively help put off the retreating defenders.

He does have a point though…. If we just keep going down the flanks then Cambridge will just double up and shut us out..

Oh no, does this mean I'll not be able to watch live games now?
Very Probably Not.

If their defenders are dominant in the air, then get the crosses in hard and low behind the defenders, then get a nick off an attacker or a defender facing the goal.

Agreed and Bird has proved pretty consistently that he is fully focused on the Derby cause until he leaves and I imagine would absolutely love to be part of two big wins to close out his Derby career.
Anyone questioning his commitment to Derby is way off the mark IMO.

More about being aware that the bounce and run of the ball is unreliable. Overplaying on a bobbly surface can be as frustrating as having cross after cross headed away by dominant defenders. Put pressure on their defenders and hope that the surface causes them more problems than it does us. It's not a day for passing around at the back. On a narrow pitch, the middle is a difficult place to play through a team, even on a flat surface. They'll regard a point as satisfactory, so I expect they'll play ala Northampton and hope to nick a goal - we have to make sure they have to work harder for one than NTFC did that day.

Hope you have a great weekend bluebry, enjoying the Derby promotion party !

I don`t think I`d mind any team going up, by beating us, if it didn`t affect our own league ambitions.

Except Leeds, of course. I`ll forever enjoy seeing them fail.

I wonder if this is your final “Warne in”?

The end of that quote may well inadvertently work in @RoyMac5's favour however 😂

I have no problems with Roy having his opinions , but it would be nice to call a Truce for 2 weeks and celebrate promotion.Then we can start on the subject of recruitment.
