    Nice gift from Mel Morris to the Rams ST holders

    The problem with cup vouchers is that, that proportion of the season ticket money would have to be shared with the away team and the cup competition, I believe.

    Lawro for the sheep shaggers

    Just as with Vydra, play him out wide and he's very ordinary, we moved him to his favoured position last season and hey presto. Maybe the same thing is happening with Weimann this season. It's not rocket science, but we see it season after season with different managers.

    We've only just begun

    Hopefully, in a few years time we'll be 'on top of the world' and we'll be saying ''there's a kind of hush' coming from the city ground.

    John Terry's new role

    Didn’t do them much good last season and he’s not far off 38 now. Expensive luxury and we’ll have our leader when Davies returns. I don't know about that, most villa fans I know, really rated him last season. I agree, he's not the player for us, as you say we've got Davies for that role and...

    Rams pay £1m for season long loan of winger

    Maybe by paying a high loan fee gives the freedom wether we play him or not. Also, the article suggests that we're paying him 4k per week wages. I would expect that Liverpool were paying him far more than that. In effect we're paying him 24k per week over the season which isn't bad for a...

    12/18 after six as we reach the first break.

    A decent points haul, but no more than that considering the teams we've played. We've beat 2 teams at home who have lost all their away games and 2 teams away who have lost all their home games. We've also given Millwall their only victory of this season. The only decent team we have played...

    Outs and Ins...five days to go.

    You can use the emergency loan system to get a keeper in. You're more likely to get a decent keeper that way, when he knows that he will get game time.

    Did we play yesterday

    I noticed on our first goal that Bennett chased a ball that was going out for a throw to US in our own half. How many players would have settled for allowing the ball to go out and to get up the pitch waiting for a throw in from the fullback? Possibly the Preston defence may have switched off...

    Derby County v Ipswich Town match report

    A good result was about it last night. I thought Forsyth was the MOM and Bogle had a decent game, I would love him to take it forward a bit more, but that will come with confidence. Tomori, whilst fast and skilful, hasn't got a brain at times. He could have easily cost us 3 or 4 goals last...

    Management style, be careful what you wish for.

    Have to agree with you, RA. I can't see where we're going yet, but I'm prepared to give FL time to sort himself and the the team out. I think we've got to be prepared to wait some time before it all clicks into place. Listening to Nigel last night was like listening to a broken record. Before...

    Under23s

    I watched the second half and was impressed with McAllister, although it was only a short period. For a winger, he seems to be quite strong and he's good with both feet and not frightened to take a shot. Guy's free kick over to Anya was superb and Anya's control and shot were world class.

    Match Report Millwall v Derby County

    Also against Sunderland at home when he went off injured after 5 minutes.

    Thoughts on the match

    We were poor and got what we deserved but the officials were awful. As previously pointed out, their players virtually forced the ref into giving them a card. The cross that led to the corner for the second goal was made by a player 2 to 3 yards offside in a slow moving action only 10 yards...

    Ref Watch Derby County V Leeds United

    I thought BJ was a bit unfortunate to get the same punishment as the Reading player. Yes, he stood up to him, but the Reading player come forward with his head to make contact afterwards and committed the foul in the first place.

    What's going off???

    It still amazes me how much criticism he gets. He's done everything he can with nothing but good intentions. Sure, he's made mistakes with managerial appointments and backed his managers with some poor signings, but then he would have been criticised for not backing the manager, who knows more...
