    I'll tell you what else suffered badly through administration... Rammie's head. Couldn't help noticing on Saturday that bits of the horns were starting to peel off ! Now assuming that this isn't some natural phenomenon and just part of prep for tupping season, can someone just buy the poor guy a new costume !

    And a few more sizes up, than the one he presently inhabits.

    Iain Williamson. Gave Brum a soft penalty then played 7 minutes added time instead of the 3 minutes shown by the 4th official and didn't spot clear fouls at the last minute corner that led to their equaliser. The two points dropped effectively cost us a playoff place (well, that and Bournemouth and Watford's financial doping). 

    In over 70 games Port Vale have never been awarded a penalty.

    Its the area just south west of Burslem where the canal junctions are. Middleport, Longport are still places along with Port Vale Road and others.

    The valley of the ports is what local legend says was the nickname of that area. 

    They became Burslem Port Vale when they first moved east a few hundred yards.

    Either way, Burslem is a shitehole of immense proportions.

    I can never equate what beautiful pottery/ porcelain comes out of the Stoke area, and the run down state of the place.

    Now I don't want to sound like a 'Killjoy', but with DC being a wealthy, local businessman who is also a life-long Derby County fan, have we not all heard something not too dissimilar to this before from a certain Mel Morris?  Just sayin'!

    Deja Vu. All over again.

    It's an epic read but it goes on a bit, but still well worth a read.

    'War and Peace' is like the Teddy Bears' Picnic compared with this horror story.

    Love, hate, intrigue, plot twists, conspiracy theories, goodies, baddies, hope, despair, tragedy, comedy.

    All of life's rich tapestry lie within these covers.

    If it was a work of fiction it would be a roller-coaster of a read and a best seller.

    However, as a true story that recounts the club's descent into chaos due to unthinkable mismanagement.........

    Actually, don't bother going back to  page 6.

    Just hide in the cupboard under the stairs and repeat after me....'La La La La LA LA LA LA LA !! ?

    And if made into a film it would have to be played by the Marx brothers, unfortunately they are not available.

    Welcome to the Derby administration,
    Such a lovely place (such a lovely place)
    Such a fall from grace,
    Plenty of room at the Derby administration,
    Any time of year (any time of year)
    All them oh so nears

    to Hotel California

    Last thing I remember, I was
    Running for the door
    I had to find the passage back
    To the place I was before
    "Relax, " said the night man
    "We are programmed to receive"
    "You can check-out any time you like"
    "But you can never leave!"

    I can tell you some War stories, My Mother was Austrian during the time AH just walked in and all through the occupation, The Russian Mongols that came in after AH was no more made the German soldiers look like bouncers at a Children's birthday party. 

    Maybe if you had suffered at the hands of the invading Germans in their I’ll fated invasion of Russia, you may have thought and acted in a similar fashion Alf.
