    I wouldn't be entirely surprised. Their respective coaches think they're good enough for the matchday squad, which they clearly didn't last year and you do see some kids improve exponentially for some experience of senior football. Both have a deal of promise based on what we saw IMO, though both obviously still raw talents rather than more finished articles. I think Osula just needed game time, to be honest. A couple of quiet games and he was done. 

    Springett getting minutes for Norwich as well

    Just seen Troy Deeney has signed for Forest Green Rovers as a player coach. He would have been definitely a target for me before the likes of wash, waggy and even Collins. Hes a big nightmare for defenders who in reality, is built to do well in the lower leagues. He's a promotion winner, a leader and the latter is definitely something we need. We also need a solid CDM because as well as smith does, I feel like we lack a presence and a solid spine through the team. There's too many nearly men and questions over peoples best positions and roles, that is not a team or system that is going to work imo.

    I take it you didn’t see Deeney play for Brum last season ? Unfit and overweight. Most Brum fans said he was finished and disinterested .

    I suspect he will do more coaching than playing at Forest Green. 
     

    The Deeney of 4/5 years ago I would have been agreeing with you.

    does anyone else get a gut-wrench when they watch these nostalgic videos? A stadium I can never attend again, players I can never enjoy watching live again, a standard of footballer for Derby I am unlikely to see again. In innocence and level playing-field financially that we will never experience again. 

    It actually hurts me watching this, and I pine to be back in those days.

    Imagine being 15 years old and you have just seen your team win a 2nd League title in 3 years and thinking your football watching life was always going to be this good ……….

    I was driving home from the supermarket Sunday, minding my own business when I spotted a car driving erratically behind me.  

    As the lights were changing ahead, I slowed down and they ploughed straight into the back of me.

    As I turned around to get out, I saw them from my side window, hastily doing a U-turn, despite it being a dual carriageway and the lights being red and they sped off back in the direction they had come from.

    Luckily I managed to memorize their registration number and write it in my phone before calling 999, thinking they'd be interested in helping since leaving the scene of an accident, especially without checking if anyone is hurt is illegal I believe.

    I was given a crime number, which I've chased a couple of times but I've been met with nothing but apathy from the police. I've been told they will call me "at some point". Meanwhile, the other driver is probably getting the front of his car fixed so if and when someone does knock on his door, he can deny all knowledge, despite traces of their paint being all over my broken bumper.

    My investigations seem to suggest that the other driver is insured and his tax and MOT are up to date so not sure why he did what he did.

    Having spoken to my insurance company, they were pleased that I managed to get the reg number and will be pursuing it. My broker did say that my premiums will increase though, despite it not being my fault.  I still have to fork out for the excess, deposit for the courtesy car and suffer general inconvenience of it all while mine is being repaired.

    Has anyone else suffered a similar problem? Will the police care less? Will I end up out of pocket?

    Might have been driving intoxicated hence the runner ?

    I remember saying we would be linked with Sharp, will spend all summer chasing him, we will be waiting on a decision and he will turn us down last minute.

    Mark Thomas must be good at making coffee, because God only knows why we got him.

    You haven’t half got boring lately same post multiple times

    We seem to chase players with very little chance of success, happens time and time again unfortunately.

    A player who scores 17 goals on the way to being promoted to a division higher than us currently, if we couldn't compete for Alfie May then how on earth are we competing for Smith?

    Well known Alfie May wanted to move back to South London to be near his parents and family …..
