    Opened again last Saturday after being closed since August, The owners are the same people that own the Exeter, The Silk Mill and the Devonshire, Mark Roper who was in the band Anti Pasti is one of the owners, My Daughter knows him.

    My next door neighbours on Cherry tree avenue were called Roper. Phil I seem to remember.  Could be a relative maybe.

    Everyone stay in their seats...if we're promoted(of course)Carlisle players go over to their supporters, DCFC players congregate around the tunnel then let Carlisle leave the field of play, DCFC players applaud all fans with a "lap of runners up honour" then go into the centre circle and start the bounce.

    The word "invasion" is what it is, There's people who want to see the players do the above, With an "invasion" players will not be allowed to come out until the pitch is cleared...by this time lots of fans have left the stadium to go and get pissed or home to hug their partner.

    KEEP OFF THE FCUCKING PITCH

    PS...I'll be in the Rifleman(Belper)watching on my Sky Go App 👍 

    The Rifleman in Belper. It has been a few years since I was in there.

    Pompey fans assaulted a Barnsley player on the pitch and some pubs were looted on the night in Southsea, hopefully if we do get to celebrate we do it in style and not like idiots . 

    Points deduction? Oh no only us

    In my next level thinking I think we want Peterborough to win too. In the event that we lose or draw at Cambridge we may well need Peterborough to get a result against Bolton on the final day, so the last thing we want is for that game to be a dead rubber for Peterborough.

    Imagine a doomsday scenario where we lose to Cambridge and Bolton win their next 2 games, the table would look this if Peterborough win their next 3 games:

    Bolton 88

    Derby 86*

    Peterborough 86

    *goal difference advantage over Peterborough

    So going into the last day Peterborough would go all out to beat Bolton as they could still nick 2nd, but a win for them and win for us against Carlisle would mean that we take 2nd on goal difference 😎

    Excellent.  No Portsmouth.  That is a win win.

    I assume you mean ‘problem for Warne’? The idea the dressing room votes for captain is comical. The manager should be in charge. It’s been a costly cop out and hopefully it does not cost us promotion. 

     

    Yes. A typo on my behalf.  I do agree it was a mistake to allow the team to pick the captain from a management point of view.  However,  I also see the possible benefits of a leader who most want. Pros and cons.

    It sends the message that you're in charge and players get picked on form not reputation.

    I totally understand that. I am just playing devil's advocate as to why Warne plays him. However as I said, Warne and Derby are at the pressure end of season and whilst Hourihane might have the knowledge and calmness,  the boss is all about delivering results and he knows the best midfield partnership to hopefully get us over the line.

    Why does Warne keep picking him then? 

    I think the very fact that the players chose him as captain has been a profor Warne. Drop him and what message does that give to the team who chose him as their leader. However,  at the latter part of the season and with so much at stake, I think Warne can now get away with not playing him from the start. Again However,  give him his due, he played the captain by going around each player at half time against Portsmouth.  He still has a role to play.
