    Being old and tired is exactly why you should keep going. You pack this up, pack something else up, pretty soon you're left with hoping to be put in the sunny window and snoozing to pass the time.
    Rage, rage, against the dying of the light, Eddie!

    Last week, I drove to Ilson and went in with my sister, who has a parking ticket at PP. That was great, because we got a lift directly to our turnstile at the ground on a golf cart. That's something that might work long term - doing it again for the Carlisle match.

    Folks, please. Are we capable of losing at Cambridge? Are Bolton capable of smashing Port Vale 4-0 at home?
    We aren't remotely there yet. Keep the champagne in the box, and only put it on ice if we win on Saturday.

    There is a problem with sleep as you get older.
    When I was younger I used take a nap now am older the nap takes me, I often wake up at the end of a film and wonder what happened to the middle bit of the film.😂😂
    I have never fallen asleep during a Derby match there’s always too much drama .
    i just want two more wins for the Rams with as little drama as possible and I will be happy Ram 🐏

    Fair point, but at the risk of quibbling that wasn't exactly stated. Implied, sure.
    I feel like we shut people and ideas down far too readily these days, and this is another example. See Dawn French's comments yesterday around JK Rowling.

    Having open conversations is fine. So long as we are willing to have open conversations about everything. 
    The problem with some people is they can't tolerate criticism of Israel without making accusations of deep Antisemitism. But then they want the freedom to have these open conversations. 
    What's wrong with talking about Muslim men coming into Europe from the Middle East into Europe (can't remember the Douglas Murray quote) that "they're unworthy of" and the dangers of Islamists? 
    Well, nothing. Provided you are comfortable to sit down and talk about Israel without screaming antisemite. 
    Rachel Riley accused social media of being a cesspit of Antisemitism.She photoshopped the picture of Corbyn arrested in SA protesting against Apartheid. She is isn't shy accusing people of being racist/antisemtic. Yet gets to pick what's racist and what isn't (see the British Jews refusing to play British Arabs comment). There's a whole history of double standards with her. So she doesn't want an open conversation. Neither does Douglas Murray. 
    There was an interview on Sky between Owen Jones and some Israeli influencer. At one point he said to Owen Jones "why do you care so much". This has been the smear of Pro Palestinians for a long time. Implying or saying outright that it's motivated by Antisemitism. Even aimed at "self hating Jews". 
    Imagine, if this was a story about  something to do with a banker. And a celebrity jumped to the conclusion that the greedy banker was probably a Jew. She wouldn't call that a conversation starter. She'd be right too. 
    And she didn't even apologise. She basically said she was wrong this time but usually....
    Open conversations? Fine. But open across the board. Talk about the links between certain crimes and race/religion if that's somehow helpful. 
    The hypocrisy of accusing the West of having deep rooted Antisemitism while wanting the freedom to open fire on Muslims. That's what separates Murray and Riley from, I assume, your view.

    You clearly do a lot of work on stats in football. I hope it brings you joy and wealth.
    I personally couldn't give less of a monkey's about average discrepancy to the chances/goal average, xG, or any of it.
    I watch football for fun, for the joy of that moment when the ball hits the net, the intake of breath as a defender is beaten. The satisfaction of winning a game. The shared pleasure of a successful season. 
    I don't understand what you are saying, why you are saying it, or what joy you get from following football. 
    Maybe if you diluted your intensely dry and rather hectoring stats lessons with a post or two about the actual football, or the Rams generally, folks would treat you with less disdain.

    Just got home. Story of our season tbh. Didn't play that well but somehow still came out with the three points and the title.
     
    Appreciate the kind posts from the posters here. Bolton drew again so hopefully you guys will be joining us next season. You deserve it.

    Sometimes yeah, maybe but this is not an example at all. She deleted the tweet herself once it became clear that she was 100% wrong, and left totally exposed as having said something hugely prejudiced. She wasn't "shut down" or "cancelled".  And this is from someone who is very vocal about perceived anti-semitism (to the point of also shooting herself in the foot when she said that she "didn't look like a typical jew"!). You'd think she might be a bit more aware of religious stereotyping
    There are certain topics where we really need to all learn to think about what we are about to say before we say it.
    Sadly some people seem determined to say controversial stuff just for the publicity
