Has anyone seen MacLaren anywhere near the club in the last, say, 4 months.
Personally I think he came in and gave a bit of advice and then left and hasn’t come back. He’s not doing anything other than been paid as a consultant once in a while. I’m not ITK, I just think that’s all there is to it.

Rooney should do one of two things:
1. Tell the world he is lucky to be managing our club and that he is determined to get the best out of our squad whatever its weaknesses
2 resign

Let's pretend ...
... it was the post above that led to the successful appeal to the EFL to disregard the Chorley-Match players!
PS. I would love to know when that appeal was lodged, because if it was after 14th July ... it will make it even easier for me to pretend!

Betfair are offering odds on all other 23 teams to get relegated, but not Derby.
Conversely, Derby  are 50/1 to win the championship.

Wilson
Not Harry, just the ball from Castaway.

Well “news that isn’t bad” I suppose counts as good news these days for us!

Are they playing in ripped jeans rather than shorts? 

I spend a lot of time reading these pages but don't often contribute much so bear with me!
One thing I think we would all agree on is that the club is in a mess and we were very lucky to survive last season. I don't think there's anyone that thinks this season will be any easier. 
The EFL in my opinion clearly have an agenda to make this season as difficult as possible for Derby. We are certainly not shopping in the same stores that we used to, in terms of player recruitment and this can be seen by the out of contract players currently training with us.
Now this is where I think we as fans can make a difference. I am becoming more and more frustrated when I read negative comments, especially about players who haven't even kicked a ball yet. For example....
Jagielka was an established premier League defender and with some younger legs around him, COULD become a quality signing.
Ravel Morrison has bags of ability and MAY have matured. The highlight reels certainly show there is a player that has an awful lot to offer if his head's in the right place.
Tom Lawrence has definitely been inconsistent. He has also had a drink problem, lost his mum and suffered personal issues not to mention Joiner Gate! BUT....he has bags of ability and giving him the captaincy could just be the kick up the bum he needs. 
These examples could easily be turned from possible positives to negatives.
However I can tell you one thing that is absolutely guaranteed .....and that is that we have the best possible chance of success If we get fully behind the team, remain positive and come together against those trying to knock us down such as the EFL, some other clubs, managers and chairmen.
I'm sick to death of reading negative comments from some who seem to think that we're entitled to success or think it's fine to boo etc as they've 'paid their money '. 
We've been in the second flight for a long time now and in my opinion never closer to dropping down another level.
So would you rather be positive and effectively become the 12th Man or be negative and add to the problem? ...and by the way I don't mean moaning that we've not played well. That's part of football and being a supporter. I mean almost personal attacks on players, management and chairman.
Be interested to hear people's views but really feel that if we can create some positivity we may just scrape by this season and give us a chance to move on again in a year's time. ...waffle over!

Shame though, the kit is too good for our team right now. ?

It looks like the club have forgotten the new kit. Well when we forgot our kit at school, we had to play in vests, underpants and spare plimsolls which were 2 sizes too big.

Have we signed Gordon Ramsey (doing press ups)?
