@selwynoz. I wish I could share your optimism and whilst I agree that it is going well in terms of adding players to the squad, I am far from convinc...
@redcarred. Might also signal that Djed Spence's day's are numbered. π
@original-fat-bob. I didn't see that one coming but fully understand the reasoning behind it as we know that GS has been left out of the team previou...
@original-fat-bob. I wonder if he will be an upgrade and if so as compared to whom - Gestede, Assombalonga? - I should have looked at your youtube cli...
Club website reporting that our opening game of the season has been moved to Sunday the 8th of August with kick off at 1:30 live on Sky. π
@redcarred. You have hit the nail on the head again. How often do we hear manager's say they will only bring in players who will be an improvement o...
@allan-in-bahrain. Could well of done albeit I have to admit that I did climb over the wall on a few occasions before I became a resident on the Holg...
@ken. Keep them coming when you feel up to it Ken, as they are a great read and I for one like learning about players before my time and to reminisce...
An interesting topic but one where it is difficult to come up with a choice given we do not know how long NW's tenure will last (I have already said n...
I also agree with RR and Selwynoz and think PM should be in midfield with DF and GH at the centre of our defence. NW should be in our squad as bot...
@original-fat-bob. Along with West Brom and possibly Bournemouth. π
The Evening Standard (London) is carrying an interview with Frank Lampard in which he states that he would be prepared to manage in the Championship i...

I just hope he doesn't play like Joanna Lumley! ππ
@redcarred. Sounds like a plan which is all too familiar!!π€£π€£

@andy-r. Your comments effectively confirm my view, which is what exactly is the plan! π
Well no surprise that our transfer dealings are suffering similar results as in past windows and yet again we are missing out on our supposed No 1 tar...
@original-fat-bob. If the story about the way in which CA was recruited is true (video) then yet again it shows the club, management and recruitment ...
@clive-hurren. Brilliant, thank you, haven't laughed as much in ages. Even Mrs P was chuckling! π
@deleriad. For all my criticism I do admit that I do not have an answer to what happens next and agree that NW is probably the only option but my con...
@lenmasterman. Len I would go as far as to say he was our Bobby Moore and Willie and Stuart Boam are for me the best ever centre back pairing we have ...
When considering how a team is doing/progressing I prefer to look at the longer term trend rather than comparing just one season as against another, p...
@andy-r. Whilst previous performance is no guarantee of future returns, I think I know where I would put my money! π
@andy-r. "More concerning to me is not what has just passed but what is to come. The current strategy only makes any sense if weβre promoted next seas...
@werdermouth. As far as the experienced players who left are concerned, to the best of my knowledge the likes of Friend, Ayala and Clayton have not ...
@werdermouth. A great read and so spot on. Pity the local journalists can't see through the smoke and mirrors and start telling it like it is and...
@original-fat-bob. If only! π
Patrick Roberts scores for Derby, a goal which keeps them up if the 2-1 score remains! π
