Derby 2 Birmingham 2 was a great game, just as we were on the brink of going under. 

I remember the atmosphere at Pride Park being immense. Was my son's first Derby game too.

Out of contact this summer - what would it take to bring him home? Would he even come back to Derby?

Tend to  agree but he’s suffered quite a drop in form since first half of 22/23 season when he was literally flawless 

When you are "literally flawless", the only way is down. He's still been quality.

Thinking of purchasing my first ever set of season tickets for me and my lads.

I do have a question though - I'll be getting an adult ticket, child ticket and under 5s ticket. Some games will be too late for my under 5 to go to - can I "upgrade" the ticket to bring my dad along?

Thanks in advance.

Didn't Clowes used to sit in the corner of North Stand?

If so - Clowes Corner has a ring to it.

Well done lads, management and all coaching staff. Surely Bird doesn't want to play for Bristol now, and even more Ebou definitely doesn't want to play for Cardiff. UTR 🐑

I did wonder, as the camera panned to him sat on the bench, looking at 31'000 fans who love him - does he regret his decision to leave?

Massive long shot - but if anyone has 2 (or three would be even better) for Carlisle I'm looking to buy.

Stephen Bywater mark II

Stephen Bywater was an Agent of Chaos. A completely different kind of unpredictable.

Wildsmith is having an absolute shocker

What a f****** hit son

Five subs but three substitution windows. For the health of the players. Good change imo.

The only cash we'll have in Jan is Cashin the bank. Can't see him staying unfortunately.

DM signed by Rosenior. 

Perhaps there's a reason he chose not to re-sign.

I am whelmed at this signing 

Sounds like b******* but I had it on extremely good authority he was going to be offered, or had already been offered, a contact by Notts County about two weeks ago.

The contract by Notts is two-year with a clause that will make him a "Youth Ambassador" after he retires with the club, giving him pathway into youth coaching which is what he intends to do once retiring, especially with Notts as it's boyhood club.

The contract by Derby is for just the one year. 

He is going to accept the one year contract with Derby, before moving to Notts County to retire (assuming they offer him a contract after this year with Derby, which they will). 

This is as good as coming from the horse's mouth - if it turns out to not be true then go ahead an ban my account.

I guess can still be correct (and in this instance it was), but decisions shouldn't be made off guesswork.

Like I said, none of them spotted it. The 4th official guessed at what happened.

How can you say that so matter of factly when you're guessing yourself ?

There's no chance the 4th official saw anything. Someone guessed, or went off the word of an Accrington player.

It also doesn't change the fact that they all missed the rugby tackle on Osula just a couple of seconds earlier. If that was given, there wouldn't have been a kick or red card.

Fourth official 100% saw something and told the ref about it. I was near that side of the pitch and saw her talking to the ref on their mic and gesturing towards Osula. She then went back to the box and Warne was straight on her case. Whether she saw something or not - who knows - but she was the one who brought it up to the ref.

What was the Derby fans chanting at the end of the half? "Someones going to cry in a minute?" and "McGoldrick's a w*****"?

Were you in the same car as the Max Bird fans?

Refs having a f****** mare
