Last time I went I wouldn't say the doctor was enthusiastic but when the report came back it said I needed two fillings and a crown.

No I didn’t miss out on your joke, I’m ashamed of my poor response! 
I did however make sure the doctors hands weren’t on my shoulders during the examination.

I think you only missed out on my joke about rear entrance arrangements.
I have had a few prostate examinations myself. I was once called back by the Uroligist which was a concern, but he quickly put me at ease as he as he only wanted to get his wristwatch back.

Last September I was playing football with my grandson,and hurt my knee. I didn’t bother the doctors because the knee gradually returned to near normal, but still quite painful at times. It was such a time I winced, and my wife “advised “ me to see the doctor,which I duly attended, knee examination, all OK, I asked for a PSA (having seen the information at Pride Park) check which he duly gave me the paperwork. The test came back 7.1, I’m over 70 so 6.5 is regarded as normal. I was dispatched to the Derby Royal, had the anal examination, ( for the first time) small lump found. In five weeks I’ve had a MRI scan,my prostrate biopsy done, and a QT scan,and I’m now on a hormone treatment plan. It appears they’ve caught the tumour early, and the prognosis is good, they say it will be eliminated. You do lose your dignity at times, but not going through that door and having the exam you could lose a lot more.
A shout out to the doctors and nurses at the Derby Royal, they have been absolutely terrific, informative, and very understanding, and caring.
 

Agree and we’re seeing more and more of it. Grealish is one scallywag who’s mastered the dark art. This is much harder for referees
 
And a slightly different one - some players deliberately trip themselves up  - I’ll swear I saw one of the Newcastle players do it last week.  If it becomes habitual maybe we’ll get lucky and one of them’ll do it coming down the stairs 
It all means more goals we should be delighted 

He didn’t. He wanted to get Smith out of his face, write his report and get in his car for the long, cold ride home. So he said (allegedly) “IF I got it wrong I’m sorry... “ 

I was told he said...I'll sing a song about a lorry ?

Or we could adapt the team according to circumstances. It’s what other managers do but Warne seems incapable of. 

Think the ref did get it wrong. But don’t think Warne should be deflecting attention from his inability to work out how to find the right balance between experience and youth. Part of his problem is he’s too close to some of the senior players 
 
Would like to have seen him make changes at half time so as to sit on the 1-0 lead, whilst threatening a goal on the break. We’re good enough to control possession against that lot if he puts the right bodies in the right places. 
 
First half against Shrews is the only time in the last ?6 games where we have seen the potential of this squad. That’s down to the manager 

Brings to mind the definition of insanity

I do remember Darius Vassell almost losing a toe by trying to drain a blood blister under his nail with a Black and Decker hand drill.  That one has stuck with me.

Not heard the interviews post match, just the comments in here.
That's 2 games running we haven't reacted to a change at HT by opposition,  resulting in 2 goals each in next 20 minutes.
The management need to see the weaknesses being exploited and attempting to fix from the bench, yet again too late last night, we needed energy in midfield to try to slow down their attacks, Thompson should have been on for White to break up play, although I was concerned at the line up and subs before the game started, away from home against 2nd place and we chose to weaken the midfield by taking Smith out, and to not even have the option to put him back in mid game with Rooney not even on the bench (should have started) was a mistake before a ball was kicked. With Sibs and Dobbin on bench Springett should have missed out to get him in the squad, we seem to deliberately weaken the team for these big away games, that's 2 on trot away from home.
Starting to concern me the lack of response from the bench mid game, especially when we know Warne wants high intensity play, you need to be proactive with the subs.

Shocking game management by Warne. Not for the first time either.

Tell the players not to go route one at every given opportunity.  You can change tactics without changing players. 

It was simulation. The player knew what he was doing and the Ref was MUGGED. 

Fluff off Cowley on SS it was never a pen !!!! 

We had a 1-0 lead and we didn’t manage it  

He’s the tubbiest ref we’ve ever seen on telly 

I mean we play these twice. HT Leading 2-0 and 1-0 and get no points. Shocking really..but tonight was a 1-1 game just a cheating player and another joke ref made the difference. But. We did nothing at 2-1 to get back in the game. Just like Shrewsbury they changed tactics at HT and yet again Warne did nothing to combat it.

Can Thompson play at RB?
We need to move Smith into midfield

The Ref and the EFL

Not his Knight. Too much for him to do tonight.  Smith in midfield would be right
