    GB SPORTS reacted to G STAR RAM in Stephen Pearce on Radio Derby 6pm Tuesday   
    I think having different views is quite a leap from calling something crooked, when it isn't. 
    Unless your brother in law was privvy to the valuations assigned to players and had his own reliable method for proving they were over inflated I really struggle to see how he could come to the conclusion it was crooked and I'd say his opinion was anything other than professional and is more akin to the Kieran Maguire type comments made with no justification. 
    I'm afraid I just can't agree with you on the last point. We were left bankrupt because our owner refused to continue to financially support us.
    With regards to what I said earlier regarding the timescale of us getting in the mess,.with a wage bill of over £40m it would literally only have taken 9 or 10 months to rack up a PAYE debt of £25m. Hence how we went from being in a good position pre Covid to tens of millions in debt when we entered administration in September 2021 (from memory).

    Except Middlesbrough obviously! All their losses, moving funds about and writing off debts is absolutely sustainable because Steve Gibson says so. The rest, yes, but not them. The only thing that has prevented them reaching the riches of the promised land is nasty Derby County buying Martin Waghorn! If it wasn’t for that…doesn’t bear thinking about does it. They could be champions of Europe, just like Leeds.

    For the past twenty years, I've received a Valentine's card from the same secret admirer. So, I was pretty upset when I didn't get one this year.

    GB SPORTS reacted to Jram in Sibley too good!   
    I think until my dying day, I will be saying that Louie Sibley has the potential to be a top top attacking midfielder. I think that’s largely due to the Millwall game and watching him boss it at U18 level
    No amount of anonymous performances in the EFL will change my opinion

    My dad finally lost his battle this morning at the ridiculous age of 64.
    Over the past month or so, he got stuck in a cycle of having excess fluid drained, the fluid coming back, being drained again, etc. The fluid eventually got into his lungs and, on top of that, he had the cancer in the background (which they couldn't directly treat because of all of the draining), and a skin infection that eventually led to sepsis. It was just too many issues for him to fight, even though he gave it a damn good go.
    He deteriorated rapidly last night to the point of being very agitated and delirious, and I got a call from the nurses to come in at 3am. I knew it was the beginning of the end then, and the decision was made to withdraw treatment at about 11am. He went very peacefully within the hour.
    Part of me wants to carry on like normal - go to the match tomorrow and have a few drinks after - but the healthiest decision is probably to skip it and have a bit of alone time to process it all.
    I echo the last sentence of my previous post too - f*** cancer.

    Richard Money.
    Good Player who never quite made it.
    Apparently when we signed him on loan from Liverpool he didn't command a loan fee and the payment was a packet of Custard Creams.
     
    So Money for nothing and Liverpool got their Bics for Free!
     
    I'll get my coat.

    So we've officially written off a player who has barely played, and hasn't been at full fitness when he has?
    Right. Someone make that make sense to me please?

    Unless the club almost goes under again we'll never have that again. We need to accept that.
    Sometimes to foster a siege mentality you need to actually be under siege.
    We are now in a league in which we should be acting like the biggest club around, because we are the biggest club around. We need to foster a ruthless "we're here to batter whoever is in front of us" mentality instead.
    We should fear nobody in this division.

    GB SPORTS reacted to nottingram in xG - hype or valuable stat?   
    Think I’ve said it before but if it was called something like “chance quality” instead of expected goals then you’d have a lot less people poo-pooing it for whatever reason they do.
    It’s not the be all and end all but can add context if you want it to. Does make me laugh when people will say it’s meaningless and then happily sit there quoting shots or shots on target.
