Barely ever won a bet in my whole life. I jinx bets. I put money on Spurs to win the PL at 16/1 a couple of months back when they were relentless and look what happened. Fuck Ranieri and Vardy. I'M the reason Leicester won the league.
I think I'm going to come up with a sizeable amount of money...
The first one is already available on Sky anytime. It's got it's moments but it's not for me. I might give it another go with the 2nd episode but unless it picks up considerably then I'll give the rest of it a miss.
Hearing Adrian Durham doing a shite semi parody of himself as Owen "The Goal...
If your manager has decent financial backing and you're served up the same average negative football that you were when you were tightening your belts then I think you've got every right to be pissed off and want more. I can understand that and have always understood why Derby wanted to move on...
I dunno...I've got a funny feeling about this one. Pressure completely off Derby since nearly everyone has written them off after the first leg. I reckon Derby will win but I'm not sure if they'll do enough to get the three goals back. Certainly wouldn't rule it out though.
With a club that has the resources fit for this league, yes. The thing is while the more level headed amongst us appreciate how much our budget will be dwarfed by 95% of the league our flat earth contingent think we'll be signing Darren Bent, Adam Le Fondre and Chris Burke. The reality is we'll...
I remember the article because when we signed him on loan it got a lot of coverage our end. Obviously we unanimously thought "bollocks" and didn't expect much. He made his debut as a sub when we were a goal down at home against Cheltenham. Fifteen minutes after coming on he'd set two goals up...
If Zeli Ismail didn't have glass knees he'd be on a par with Nathan Redmond by now. Top level championship/bottom half premier league talent but my God his injury record...

I think a good day out is exactly what proper supporters of both sides will want and hopefully that's what we'll get. Unfortunately we're likely to have some knobheads attach themselves to us for the bigger games but if I know our lot it's our supporters that will shut them down quicker than...
Fair do's.
As I said I've got no affinity for them but I know a lot of people like you who have wanted us to play them competitively for donkeys years. At the same time most of the people I stand with are like me and aren't really bothered either way. I wouldn't be so arrogant as to say "it's...
If I'm honest I wanted Derby to go up. I've got no affinity for them whatsoever but the thought of the circus that's going to surround our two games doesn't even bear thinking about.
Yep, REALLY starting to sink in now :bg:
I look forward to us taking 59 people to both of these grounds as they're nailed on to be midweek away games for us. Wouldn't mind Newcastle at home to start the season though.
He can be a match winner but can also be incredibly infuriating. Reminds me in some ways of Maghoma until Rowett got hold of him and gave him the kick up the arse he needed. He likes to take players on but I think he lacks a little bit of killer instinct when it comes to a final ball. Can't take...
Cheers Justin.
Looking forward to welcoming Jimmy and Nasser back to the Pirelli and seeing how we fare against him. Same goes for Rowett and Warnock actually. I can't remember the last time (if ever) we came up against a former manager in a competitive game.
Plenty of room on the rooves (roofs?)
*Note to chairman. Money saving/making idea. Get supporters to pay to sit on the roofs (rooves?), give them torches, get rid of floodlights.
This.
We'll take on the championship on our own terms. Relegation isn't a certainty but it's incredibly likely. Ben Robinson has been either owner, chairman or on the board (I think...Terraceman will know better than me) for 41 years and so he'll make sure the priority is what happens to Burton...
If you'd have told me at the beginning of August that we'd be a Donny goal away from the play offs yesterday I'd have snatched your hand off. I think you need to look at a few more things as well that happened when Clough got appointed. Hasselbaink came back for our top scorer and best player...
