Ram Logan Josh

I'm sponsoring/hosting a Ukrainian refugee family through the Homes For Ukraine scheme.  33 year old Mum, 9 year old daughter and 5 year old son.  Been here 3 weeks now and settling in well.  It's exhausting but fulfilling. The stories they tell of their experiences bring tears to my eyes even as I type this.
Wondered if anyone had a spare Rams shirt for the kids, that they're prepared to let go?  Think there's a chance of them becoming lifelong fans.
I'm prepared to pay obviously, but a suitable donation from me to a Ukrainian charity instead might be a nice way forward.
Let me know what you've got!
Thanks

It's been a very quiet day.
Chris Kirchner's bid might, or might not have collapsed. That might or might not be the fault of the fans. His funds have either cleared or they haven't. He might be in Barhain or London.
Mike Ashley might or might not be about to swoop in with a bid which might or might not be for £28m and might or might not include the stadium. It might or might not be enough to avoid a points deduction.
The stadium itself might or might  not be owned by Mel Morris, or it cloud be Clowes or even a Clown.
Rooney might or might not have funded last months wages. We might or might not be about to sell some season tickets. 
The EFL might or might not allow us to start next season still in adminstration. 
And it's mainly Mel Morris's fault.

Staring out the window whilst I should be furiously typing reports and delivering excellence (etc) unless it's after half five. In which case loafing on the sofa watching people ride motorbikes round and round the isle of man .

I also adopt the one page in five approach.  Glad it's not just me!  Not missed anything vital yet...

This thread is now 1650 pages long - & i've read every one of them !!
'War & Peace' by Leo Tolstoy has 1225 pages - #justsaying

Yeah, he said they debated it but the new pink training kit hasnt arrived yet

Any relation to Gareth ?

DET is my go to place for up to date news on the club

This is the biggest load of total utter rubbish I've ever read on any football forum anywhere anytime! To actually think that a top class professional sportsman ( a winner his whole career)would actually want the team he in charge of to lose a majorly important football match " to make going to Chelsea easier" is sheer lunacy! Imagine hoping to get your dream job on the back of failure? The whole idea is stark staring bonkers. I don't usually like the phrase but anyone who thinks this is feasible ought to go away and "give their head a serious wobble!?

I thought it was a good idea, and the day was great fun, and I never cared before about being in a minority so no change there.  Quite a few people asked me why I was wearing it and I explained, and it made me realise that there's a general need to educate younger fans about the history.  We sometimes assume that they know stuff when actually they don't.  I was also struck by the fact that only one member of DCFC staff that I spoke to (a gentleman around my age) understood the reference without an explanation.  Memo to DCFC - make sure all your staff get a brief overview of the history, names etc during Induction Training!
My partner was attending her first ever game.  She is from eastern Europe and previously had a view of English people as shy, reserved etc.  Not any more.  She loved the passion that was on display, the solidarity in the face of adversity, and the sense of community that was evident.  She even laughed when I explained the chants, including the swearing!  
Sometimes stuff works and sometimes not, that's life.  Still a great day, great to see the members of the 72 team in the flesh and on the pitch, great to be reminded of what binds us together.  Loved the pre match poem as well, sums it all up really.
Finally, if as a fanbase we keep up this level of support this coming season, then surely Wazza will be able, post takeover, to assemble a very competitive squad and aim for a quick comeback.

Kirchner vesus Morris
Mr Kirchner still wearing his Sombrero and carrying a half empty bottle of Dark Fruits from the night before staggered into the room to be met by Mr Morris pacing up and down looking at his watch, with a Police guard and Mr Ashley's representative standing to one side. Lurking in the shadows, straining to listen, was possibly Mr Jordan, now of TalkSport.

I’ve swallowed Q’s statement lock stock and barrel ?!
 
 I’m pretty sceptical when reading statements of this type and I’ve written enough of them to understand them pretty well. The idea MM would lie to Q about death threats however is bordering on the fanciful, despite how much some on here might want to believe it. Given the vitriol on this forum and Twitter, and having seen at too close a range what some of our fans are capable of, I’d expect there to have been multiple death threats. Surprised your background leads you to think otherwise.  
You can twist my words all you want. And you can twist the facts. You’ll notice though that CK slated MM in public, accused him of blocking his bid, but that despite this, CK is ... err...  the PB. (Not MM’s chosen PB, that’s for sure !!!). 
 
The evidence indicates that MM has one key objective, namely that he does not have to write further cheques to pay off MSD. There is not one shred of evidence I have seen that suggests MM has adopted a different position with different bidders. Have you seen any ?? And if MM were to dick Q around and interfere in the M&A process, he would face serious repercussions in court. No question 
 
If there’s a change of direction - if MM does a preferential stadium deal with Ashley for example - I’ll change my view. But right now I don’t believe that MM has controlled the I/d of the buyer. And if you consider CK’s comments about MM, if you consider that Rooney and Stretford are all bound up in CK’s bid and that MM and Rooney detest each other, I think you’ll see how unlikely it is that MM has influenced the PB nomination.
 
In fact the more likely scenario is that Rooney and Stretford have been the only external parties who have had influence and there is at the least circumstantial evidence to support this 

I would put Parry, Gibson and Morris on equal footing.
If Derby die all three have contributed to it. While Morris is the root cause, he's done it out of stupidity and thinking he's cleverer than every one else.
Parry and Gibson have done it out of spite.

Here's me before setting out from home.

Got interviewed live on BBC 6 Music on the way up the M5!  Managed to bring the conversation round to the Rams plight.  Helped make a great day greater.

This didn't quite get the traction I'd hoped!  We wore ours in the West Stand Lower but doubt I spotted more than 10 others in a crowd of 30,000...

Leaving the ground though we were completely out-sombrerod by a fan also wearing a poncho. And carrying maracas!  We need this guy to own up and take a bow!

Was listening to 6 Music when you came on and thought it was a good omen for the day. Sadly not ?
Wore my sombrero too, shame there weren't a few more.
