I like how many clubs supporters hope we stay up. Truth is if we beat them they will be calling for the managers head for losing to tin pot Burton Albion.
I am a lot more positive, Nigel Clough knows what he is doing, he is the perfect fit at Albion. Quite happy to be underdogs every week, every one will under estimate us as always. Not expecting anything but a battle to stay up but battle we will. The Pirelli will be a different situation to what...
We are indeed in this division on merit, we may not have a big budget but we have a manager and chairman who will use what we have wisely. I am not really sure which combination of central defenders we will play or even if we will play with 3 and 2 wing backs so can't answer the question yet. We...
Not as it will be of any interest to most of you but we have signed so far, Ben Turner, Kyle Macfadzean, Johnstone Irvine plus Chris O'Grady on loan and evidently Hamza Choudhury is coming back for another seasons loan. Happy with that business for us so far. O'Grady although not prolific will I...
Damian McCrory and Lucas Akins two of our stalwarts over the last few seasons have both signed 2 year contracts to stay at the Pirelli stadium.
Great news for us fans and great for squad continuity. Nobody else has probably ever heard of them but personally I am very happy they have decided to...
Some do, I stand with one, he knows those around him don't like the sheep but we have good humoured banter and sensible football chat. It is a friendly rivalry but rivalry just the same. The worse the sheep do the better it is for Burton Albion, simple really.
We don't feel that way towards any...
That's what you woolly backs like to think, granted there are a few but the vast majority are not, Albion is our only club. There is interest in your scores to see if you are losing and we enjoy your annual bottle job.
Obviously you are a much bigger club than we are and I expect no points from...

Ben Turner signs for Burton Albion.
I have posted else where , it was announced this morning tht a temporary 1,000 seater stand is being built above the away end terracing which I think holds 1,800, thus giving an away capacity of 2,800. I think if I remember correctly it will be ready for the visit of the sheep.
It has been announced this morning that we are building a temporary 1,000 seat stand above the away terracing which holds about 1,800, so away allocation should be around 2,800 which isn't too bad.
You couldn't have picked a better start for us, Nigel leading out the lads at the City ground. Yes we know he has done it with Derby but this is different. I will be very surprised if we don't take 2/3000 up the A52.
Bank holiday Monday 27th August and bingo its the sheep at home, think that...
