    Think you need to get your facts right.

    Whilst Keogh's appeal to the EFL failed, his appeal to industrial tribunal  succeeded.

    Basically a passenger of a car was sacked whilst his colleagues who were convicted of drunk driving weren't.

    Difference between them was they had a resale value but  Keogh didn't.

    So we treated him like cattle and got rid.

    Keogh went to the EFL’s Player Related Dispute Commission, where he won a full payout only for Derby to contest the decision at the League Appeals’ Committee. The process has been marked by delays, caused in part by the pandemic, but the LAC last week upheld the original verdict.

    An EFL statement read: “The LAC has heard and dismissed an appeal under the regulations of the EFL by Derby against the decision of the PRDC in the case of Richard Keogh. The PDRC held that Mr Keogh had not committed gross misconduct, that he had not brought the club into serious disrepute and that he had been wrongly dismissed by the club.”

    Footballs completely on its bum. 
      
    On one hand you have Bury, Scunthorpe and how we got fisted for *checking notes* spending an owners money to try and go up. 
     
    Then you have Chelsea spending £100m on an average to good prem player. Forest splashing the cash (good for them). 
     
    The problem is the top 6 don’t care about the other 90 odd clubs. The remaining 14 prem teams don’t care about the 70 odd other clubs. The championship clubs don’t care about anyone but themselves and so on. 
     
    People cry over the super league but that’s basically what we’ve got now exactly there’s no other countries involved.

    But is the Red dogs money legit or from a criminal source ?

    I clearly misjudged the crowd in this thread, I'll talk now ? (probably too much)

    I've always just gone for medium/small hatchbacks and tried to go for 'reliable' manufacturers (maybe just reliable in my head) but with an eye for something a little different or extra so I didn't just feel I got the basic package.

    1st car - 2005 Vauxhall Astra (1.7 Diesel, the leather heated seats fulfilled 'extras') - turbo went, got rid ASAP after fixing it.
    2nd car -  2011 Volvo C30 (2.0, Petrol) - didn't see many about, liked the body shape, liked it for speed but the lack of fuel efficiency was killing me.
    3rd car - 2013 Seat Leon (1.6, Diesel) - Technology Pack so LED headlamps & other small differences - Nothing wrong with it, I just thought that it's coming up to 10 y/o, I've had it nearly 6, it's due a service in March, but still holds some decent value for part exchange so why keep it and pay out more in maintenance only to get rid of it 6 months later?

    I think the idea of getting a crossover SUV came into my head when seeing a couple of Ford Pumas out and about in the past year, but always somewhere in the back of my mind I've thought that I want a Mazda. I'd walked past Beechwood Mazda (Siddals Road) so many times on the way to the pub/football and thought to myself that they looked really cool cars and I'd quite like one.

    It turns out the Mazda I have bought started its life out at that very dealership, so there's a chance I was eyeing up the exact car I've ended up buying all the way back in 2017. Or not. Probably not. It's a nice idea though.

    Anyway... it's a 2017 Sport Nav, 1.5 Diesel - Manual, always had manuals) has the leather interior I've missed and a few extra features I haven't had before (reversing camera / sensors... even metallic paint is something I'm enthusing over), and body shape I love the look of. Other cars I've looked at in my budget just don't appeal in the same way, it was this or stick with the Seat.

    The test drive was funny, it's one of those cars with the accelerator pedal on the floor, and it's got a 6 speed gear box, keyless ignition. All new things to me. Also of course it's higher than any car I've driven (but crucially no longer or wider than the Seat) so the roundabouts were fun...  I'll stop blathering on now, sorry!

    You didn’t mention the “touring van” ? ?

    Then there's a few weeks to get match sharp and fit again, by then it's into April with a few games left of the season. Time to cut our losses. I'm sure we can offer him physio and a place to recover from his injury but be off the books. This allows a fully fit Flint to come in to play.

    Don’t think Flints recent record suggests Mr Reliability on the fitness front either ?

    Two OG’s and a Gemmill pen. 
    Look at the crowds, Div 1, Man City biggest with 26k, few more there tonight. 

    Crowds were down all across the leagues then. I think we had less than Chelsea for the BG fixture earlier in the season

    Afternoon gents, here from the other side (although not for a spat).
    First wanted to know why its purely attendance banter, is that just something you always concentrate on?

    Second, genuine scorelines/predications? Who should we be wary of?

    I'm desperate for the win as you have the game in hand but i don't think we can cry with a draw!

    There is a separate thread for predictions ??

    Has anyone had the Dacia Jogger? Looking for my ever growing family so having 7 seats is crucial. £23k for a brand new top of the range hybrid, looks a decent deal.

    Bloke in the flat below has the Dacia Duster which he says is decent.

    If he’s free, resale value isn’t really that critical at all. You don’t have to lay out money or recoup it.  It’s wages that are they key in these circumstances.

    Sounds like a good idea. Steers is emergency only, Chester’ injuries are running him down. Curtis can and will contribute this season. Maybe next season he will ease back and be the emergency, but with only Fozzy, Curtis and Cashin we do need another man ( not discounting Rooney though ! - I think he could be a real find - Is he ours or a loan ? Can’t remember)

    Rooney is ours

    Tin hat firmly on for this one.

    Certain parts of the media who continually portray the motorist as the victim when talking about the increase in the number of parking fines and drivers caught by speed cameras.

    I accept that some of the charges applied by third party enforcement companies are excessive and there will always be the rare exceptional case (“I was dropping my elderly relative off for a medical appointment and only went over by 30 seconds”) but councils, police etc don’t force people to exceed the speed limit or park illegally/without paying the correct fee.

    Don’t do the crime you don’t do the time.

    It was some fight ,, I don’t think Eubank was ever quite the same in the ring after that fight

    the Eubank Carl Thompson was brutal too ,,, 

    do you remember the Welshman Colin Jones? He was one hard bloke

    No one could ever accuse Eubank of avoiding fights. The ones with Benn brutal, Collins and Calzaghe although as you say he wasn’t the same fighter then after Watson it affected him I’m sure. 
    Yes Jones tough as nails .
