rammieib Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 Why why why can’t the EFL (ok I’ve answered my own question) see sense and leave the multi ball policy in place. Waiting for one ball is pathetic - we probably lose 2-3 minutes a game just waiting for the ball to come back from the rows of empty seats. Its actually quite annoying to me.

We can only afford one and that's on a six month loan from Man United. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carl Sagan Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 I'd expect our fitness is behind other teams at the moment, due to the triallists getting the run out in all the pre-season games until the final one against County. To that end, no multiball today would probably have been a good thing to allow players a bit of a breather. That said, I'm sure this wasn't the reason!

Telly's on the concourse are switched off too to save money. It's now £5 a pint too, and a £4+ hotdog comprises of a sausage and a roll, no onions mustard or ketchup because they don't have any.

Yes we do, but they are A) Too scared, B) on the wrong side of the electric boards and C) Too small to get over the boards ? They should be pitch side of the advertising boards.

Tombo Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 We had a ball girl a few years ago, back when they used to announce "The Derby County Ball Kids" for home fans to cheer and applaud. Unfortunately stopped when opposition fans would all boo literal children Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
