IslandExile

For me this is great news. 
 
The odd game where he was a bit Rabbit in headlights but those apart was strong, consistent and showed a good array of skills. He seems a thoroughly amiable young man who plays with commitment and passion. He’s also a “big lad” something vital in this division. At his age he’s only going to get better. 

We’ll be selling craft beers on the concourse next

We need to ease off. At this rate we’ll be the Florist of League 1

Just seen you’ve signed him.
Genuinely wish the lad all the best, shame it didn’t work out for him here he’s been incredibly unfortunate with injuries and then a change of system which didn’t suit him.
Great club for him to join in L1 really and wouldn’t be surprised if we live to regret the decision, but best for all parties as of now.
Hope he does well for you.

You cannot begrudge the lad, who has always given everything to the cause, the opportunity to play at a higher level. That's understandable for any footballer.
But....but... Bristol City!!!!!

(Murderers have served less ?)
Anyhow, well done to a magnificent servant to the club, a great ambassador and a decent player. Thank you.

?...Mendez-Lang...? Ah herm.

No.
Not because of the past but because he's past it.

Billy Sharp is actually a really decent bloke as someone who has had personal dealings with him.
 
I can’t believe people are annoyed at him for not taking being called a sex offender in good spirits. 

hete is Alan waving the letter that he had hand written and the rest of the team had signed, minus Alan Durban who had left a few weeks previously.
history in the making !

Ooh, interesting!
I love a new name.
Gives everyone the opportunity to 
a) elevate him to celestial status 
b) write him off as a terrible example of Warne’s incompetence 

For all of you trying to make something out of Sibley not being in the team, he was at the game today with his right calf heavily strapped up. 
Told us it was a minor tear and the strapping is precautionary.

"Have you already seen the best Derby County?"
Yes, 75-76 before Charlie George's shoulder injury. Even better than the two championship winning teams IMHO though I saw more matches that season so it may have skewed my view.
But Charlie George and Kevin Hector....wow.
Throw in McFarland, Todd, Gemmill, Rioch, Lee, Nish, Newton.... You won't beat that.

Noticed that myself.  Looks like he brought woolly jumper and spats to the leather coat and brogues convention and he's been banished.

I’ve been a Ram since the arrival of Sir Brian, and have going to matches since the 5 - 0 thrashing of Spurs. What a first mat h ever!
And I have to state quite clearly that I have seen the best of Derby County ……. so far! I have seen the Clough, Mackay, Cox, Smith and Mac 1 teams, with the latter Mackay team which had George and Hector in tandem being the pick of the bunch, as IslandExile said.
But the game has changed so much since those heady days with levels of fitness a d technique being light years ahead of those 70’s teams. Quite a few of our teams since then, even during our demise, would have given them a good run for their money, despite being in lower leagues. So much so that it doesn’t matter which league we are in, it’s our club, our team that matters.
All we can do is stick around and enjoy the whole experience. Nothing else in football matters. I went on my son’s stag do at Easter, which was to watch a match at Borussia Dortmund. It was an incredible experience, and the standard of football was phenomenal. However most of the stag lads were from Newark and Eastwards, and with hardly anyone worth following in that wilderness they only followed the Premiership. They knew all the players in all the squads, including past squads from seasons ago, but I hadn’t git a clue - the Premiership doesn’t interest me one bit.
I will be sticking around waiting for the next revival (this one?) for as long as I can, till I shuffle of to the stadium in the sky with the best manager/owner in the universe.

Having had a season ticket in the early 1970s, yes!
DCFC have zero chance of another European Cup semi-final whilst I am drawing breath.
But since then there have been some great times, most recently the 2021/22 season when we saw on the pitch a totally commited squad and off it a united community fighting to ensure the club survived. Being in the Premier League is not the be all and end all for me so I continue to be a season ticket holder, not least as we have the best owner for many years

Tonight is the first time for a long time that I’ve felt we have a proper football club again. 
 
It feels like the season is going to be a great one. 

That’s the spirit 🙄

Interesting detail on the structure of the deal.
 

Again, I'm pretty disappointed they missed an opportunity with the teaser. Could've had Sunny by Boney M for Bradley. Could've flown Conor to Washington DC (stands for Derby County) and thrown eggs at Wayne Rooney's house. Social media team needs to do better.

Born in ‘71 so whilst our glory years were in my lifetime I have no memory whatsoever.  By the time I really started supporting the Rams in the late ‘70s it was all downhill.  The best football was probably the first 3 years of Jim Smith.  But in my mind the best period was under Arthur Cox from ‘84 - ‘89.  Total rebuild, much like now, successive promotions and finishing 5th in the top flight only being denied European football due to the ban on English clubs.
I’m under no illusion that we will ever with the top division again but I live in hope we can get there again and hold our own.  Which, unfortunately, is probably the best a club our size can hop for.

Since Div 3, mid-50s Jack Parry, Geoff Barrowclough, Bill Curry, Reg Mathews, Barry Hutchinson etc,
The 70s take some beating, Clough and Taylor beating Real Madrid, Benfica, outplaying Juventus, but not the bent ref.  I won't see the likes again in my lifetime. 😟
