Hard to see Billam Smith doing much in this division unless he starts moving his head. He was getting picked off at will by Masternak and you'd think McGuigan will have plenty to work on if he doesn't want to see his guy stopped by Riakporhe or the like.

Don't Worry Darling: with Harry Styles, Chris Pine and a couple more familar faces (Jonah from Veep for example). It's a bit of a cross between Edward Scissorhands, The Devil's Advocate, Mad Men and one other film that if I tell you what it is will spoil the plot. First twenty minutes is intriguing and, to be fair, almost keeps the pace up. The 'twist' is pretty darned obvious by the time you get there and there are a couple of holes in how the final scenes play out. But it's worth it, the soundtrack is probably the highlight.

If we lose it on a points deduction I think we should sue the club in question for cheating their way to the record.

Endless crosses don't work, Paul Warne's made it worse, we're winning but I'm falling asleep again

Or of my inability to remember I've done this one before.

As a songwriter, pure and simple, I'd argue he's up there with Paul Simon, John Lennon and Bob Marley as someone who has a pantheon of songs that will be sung long after anyone reading this will have passed also. As a person he was a bit of an enigma, much about him was quite unlikeable but that is somehow the curse of the genius and the joy he has brought to so many was his gift. "Sad to say I must be on my way So buy me beer and whiskey 'cause I'm going far away (far away) I'd like to think of me returning when I can To the greatest little boozer and to Sally MacLennane"

Give me a T

Bit like when we were at the top end of the Championship (yes, it did happen) and every year it was "we need to get up this season as the teams coming down are so strong".

No it isn't. Poor recruiting in the summer, lack of effort from many players (100% agree with the comment on Hourihane from @Gee SCREAMER !! - he is stealing a living at the moment), often bewildering team selection and lack of tactical ability to break down teams who come to defend. All of these have led us to get pretty much what we've deserved, indeed it could be said (I won't claim it as a concensus) that had NML not had a bit of a purple patch we'd be showing a position that is probably a fairer reflection of the standard of football we have returned.

I don't understand why someone would watch a clip where they know someone dies.

Not sure I would call the Taylor era a debacle. Probably not the place to debate it but still.

Katie Taylor has some balls (pun intended). What a fighter, and capable of taking herself to the point of utter exhaustion. A great war!

So wanted to hate this but it's very good

That Barry Powell miss in the game against Luton tells you everything you ever needed to know.

Wasn't Sturridge set to go to Arsenal for £8m but they signed Bergkamp instead. We then sold him to Leicester for £300k.

Little late to this so apologies. What I think was brilliant, and it was, about B4 was that on an internet forum where we can argue for fifteen pages about whether or not Chris Martin should come back (he shouldn't btw) he managed to bring out the best in us. He had an ability to allow us to come together for the very reason we joined this forum - Derby County. Genuinely, that is no small feat and I say with certainty that this forum, and most likely the lives of those who knew him, will be a poorer place with him not amongst them.

Could have been worse

As a friend said to me over the weekend "Norwich are going to take your record this year" I wanted to suggest the initiation of St Claude's Day, the date on which no club can undertake (or equal) our points tally of eleven points. Named in honour of a player more symbolic of our lack of preparedness, ability, and commitment than any other (a statement of recognition in itself) in that 07/08 season the race is now on to predict on what day it will fall this season. In previous years St Claude's Day has fallen on the following weekends, last season's Covid affected schedule aside it has only three times made it past New Years Day. 2020/21: 4th March (Sheffield United) 2019/20: 22nd December (Watford) 2018/19: 27th February (Huddersfield) 2017/18: 13th December (Swansea) 2016/17: 19th December (Sunderland) 2015/16: 18th January (Aston Villa) 2014/15: 29th December (Leicester) 2013/14: 26th December (Sunderland) 2012/13: 2nd January (QPR) 2011/12: 31st December (Blackburn) 2010/11: 27th November (Wolves and West Ham) 2009/10: 19th December (Portsmouth) 2008/9: 8th November (Spurs) So, on what day will St Claude's Day fall on this year? I predict it will be the fourth time it has made it past New Years Day but I still think last week in February our record will be safe for one more season.
