I think you can read that completely the other way round?

I certainly read it the other way. No, taxman is still unpaid, and the charge is still on the crime sheet.

I think most of us do but, sadly, it only takes a handful of noisy folk to express their frustration to make it sound like a lot.
A few things are certain: Regardless of the result, regardless of the performance, I will not be booing the team, Mel or Rooney. I won’t join in any “witty” songs about Rooney and I won’t be leaving early. I rather suspect (and hope) the majority will react the same.
That doesn’t make me a better fan (I’ll do plenty of grumbling and moaning to myself) or mean I don’t blame Mel or that I rate Rooney but I’ll do my best to support the team and accept the fact that Rooney is doing the best he is capable of and Mel is doing his best to sell the club.

I have never booed anyone at a football match - it achieves nothing and wouldn’t give me a sense of enormous well being - get behind the lads as the crowd are worth an extra 8 points a season usually

As someone said, we have waited seventeen months to see a live competitive Derby County game.
I am really looking forward to it and I certainly won't be wasting any energy on booing anybody.
Time to enjoy being a supporter again.

Pandemic ? People have and will be losing their jobs whilst some may well be taking their families on a holiday somewhere - attendances will be down all over the championship

Exactly. Let's wait and see how we compare to other clubs.
As well as people who are hesitant about joining big crowds, people may have found other things to do with their Saturday afternoons, may be feeling the pinch financially, maybe haven't missed football as much as they thought they would do.
I think all of football will face a challenge to get crowds back to pre-covid levels.

I don't understand why after playing one friendly against a non-league team are some of our fans wanting to see Cashin start?
I'm all for blooding youngsters and if imagine he will get his chances this season.
But it has to be the right time. It's a massive massive difference from playing against non-league opposition in a friendly to starting week in week out in the championship.
More than ever next season we are going to need experience. It's going to be a long hard season and I don't think starting an U23 centre back with no experience is the best idea at the moment.

I would be very surprised if there is even 15,000 in total with the away support

Sparkle got a reaction from GangwayD in Best penalty taker you've ever seen (for the rams that is)
I was there and Saunders actually tried to place it rather just smacking it like he always seemed to do

Jagielka and Davies are currently an absolute must especially when the aerial bombardment is coming in from Cardiff and Middlesbrough Millwall etc

He said in the next 48 hrs or later in the week so then it’s a rolling 48 hrs for all the 48 hrs fans out there

I still can’t get my head around this decision, at least my expectations can only get improved ?

I am not sure about the Baldock one maybe Aluko will do ok and provides an alternative that is different

Imagine Gregory scoring 10 goals a season for us whilst we only paid £4500 to Stoke every week - they wouldn’t be having that ( I thought he had signed for Portsmouth anyway but I could be wrong)

If it is true then surely we just wait until the end of the summer transfer window. Play someone who already counts towards the limit, sign whoever we are allowed to and the play cashin after that.
