I take it you’ll be adding today’s kit to the collection @loweman2? 

Young guy called Curtis. Just signed a one year deal. Heard good things.

Three! ?

I made a promise that once Wayne Rooney had left, there would be no more  changing of the name on the forum.

Whilst he's very much the "saviour" right now, 12 months down the line some might not be a fan of how the club is being run.

Would only create more moaning asking for it to be removed so we'll leave it be.

I loved how Rooney brought the club together in extreme adversity, but I’m looking forward to being known as good, old fashioned, Derby County Football Club again.

No name is bigger than that.

Not how I'd describe them.... More like a long term illness which has finally been removed like a wart.

The long and winding road?

What about "Yesterday" or for Quantuma "Band on the run" and for all Derby Fans "Maybe I'm amazed" For our Academy "Junior's farm". For this season "With a little luck" and for David Clowes "Listen to what the man said".

Sorry but I'm a big Paul Mccartney fan

And could you call Quantuma a ‘Temporary Secretary’?

Or maybe I’ve had too many whiskies already ?

I'm sure others have said as much.... I can't be bothered to go back through the responses.... Too busy drinking a bottle of red wine ??. I'd just like to say a massive.....no... A fecking massive thank you to the legend that is Mr David Clowes, Thank you for saving our club, for relieving us all of this collective stress. You sir are an absolute diamond.

 

Let's be clear here as well to our magnificent fan base what a huge financial commitment and risk this gentleman has undertaken. Expectations reset everyone, survival is key. I'm sure he'll get the business model right. Let's enjoy the moment and here's hoping we get to laugh in Gibson's face sooner rather than later.... I can't be bothered with Wycombe, they are a non entity...

 

UTRs!!!!!!!

I thought that the manly tears I shed last weekend when McCartney played Glastonbury would be my last for a while. It seems not. Love this club. COYR!!!

Not a McCartney song, but Here Comes the Sun seems appropriate for the occasion.

My last comment on this thread until its consigned to the history books is.. 

Will we ever see this thread beaten? I bleeding hell hope not. 

Have a great night fellow Rams 

I’ve heard a rumour George Thorne might be re-signing 

I’m on the whisky already ?  

Thank you so much David (and your team).

Can’t quite express what it all means at the moment.

Ask me after another couple of whiskies!

COYR ?

is he definitely going to forest on loan?

 

pretty sure what watford did got banned 

Don’t know, you might be right. 

Maybe they’ll buy him for peanuts instead.

Just now, alram said:

what is the issue with that?

Olympiacos and Notts Forest are owned by the same guy. 

Way to get round P&S rules. And not the for the first time. If it goes through expect to see him loaned to the Trees. 

Same as how Watford operate with Udinese.

Give the rest of us a chance Olly! ?

I know this is a discussion board but personally don't think we should spend anymore time discussing Kirchner – he's history. Wasted so much energy worrying about him doing the deal. Forget about him, sure he has us.

Let's focus on the future with Clowes, after all…

Every Clowes has a silver lining.
