We are at home to Peterborough on the 1st of January and away to Fleetwood on the 6th . Yeah I noticed that on the EFL website last night too - concrete proof that they haven't got a clue what day it is 😂 🤔 Edited December 6, 2023 by Ilkestonian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be interesting to see if teams fully put out their best XI from now on let's say if we draw Bolton or Blackpool Doncaster or Bradford, please, preferably at home. jimtastic56 and Scott129 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So while I can I still like to go. Telly ain’t the same however good ramstv may be. But oh boy do I wish the highways agency would not screw up both north/south routes at the same time and same area.

Massive amounts of “Humble pie” will have to be eaten as they stand in the Q for Wembley tickets .

I’m not a big fan of many stats but over a long period this is a good one eg for telling you how sharp you are in front of goal. ( Thought Collins looked pretty crisp in front of goal vs Fleetwood ) lrm14 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be interesting to know if we are making any profit from this EFL trophy. Early rounds are probably a net loss is my guess but potentially they break even or make a small profit from this point onwards? Only a guess though. I think if it was a significant loss making competition to be in you'd just see any sizable league 1 clubs decline to enter or not try at al all in it. If it was a certain loss maker for the club I'm sure we'd have fielded as weaker team as possible and just crapped out of it at the first opportunity.

For me, moving away from Derby, my family also moving away, the cost of trains on top of tickets etc just meant I can't afford to go anywhere near as much as I want to. And of the 4 people I used to go with, 3 have died, and the other lives even further away than me. Luckily I have a very patient partner who is happy to go with me every now and then, as long as I pay. But sadly my days of having a season ticket are long over. Every time I go to a match I try and see who's sat in my seat. They best not be farting. archram, SKRam, sage and 1 other 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
