    Had no idea that Garner was sacked and Tisdale had taken over ? I listened to their game against Fleetwood on the radio which was Garner's final game in charge and the fans weren't happy on full time but I didn't seriously consider him to get the sack just yet. To be honest I thought the Gas were going to be a mid table/bottom half team under Garner as that new striker they have bought seems to be doing ok. Fleetwood stuck 5 past Plymouth last weekend too so they are on good form too. Lets see if Paul Tisdale can't be the next Dave Penney for them.

    I only ever know who the manger is when the song comes around informing me of their mother's occupation.

    Not going to games means I'm completely out of the loop.

    Let the fat lady sing - Beans on Toast

    If you want social realism lyrics with politics and bittersweet love songs check Beans on Toast out. Very much from the Billy Bragg school. 

    Everybody Sing - Wideboys

    Beans on Toast is a cracking artist. Once got very drunk backstage at one of his shows and jammed folk tunes with him whilst forgetting all the lyrics and most of the guitar.

    A maximum of 4,000 fans are to be allowed at outdoor events in the lowest-risk areas when the national lockdown in England ends on 2 December, BBC Sport understands. 

    Good news, although surely it should be done as a percentage of overall capacity. 4000 at the gate will be much more socially distanced that at the mem. 

    Edit: Didn't see the "maximum" of 4000 so presumably some further restriction due to capacity

    Seems to have 1 big mistake in him each game. Other than that I think he is getting better as the season goes on. Still not 100% confident in him as 1st choice but if he keeps improving at this rate im sure he will prove himself as a decent champ defender.

    Probably as good a time as any to remind ourselves about their cringy efforts at ‘Mind the Gap’ ?

    Right before they got a new tent!

    Let's just pretend that £100 notes exist for a second. That would make it £700 in the picture. 

    Seems accurate for their transfer budget?

    So. A few weeks ago, Derby received a loan from a 3rd party, which was secured against the stadium. 
     

    Given this decision, it seems it was a legitimately priced purchase when Morris bought the stadium. 
     

    So, Derby now don’t own the stadium. So the loan, being secured against the stadium, would surely be a loan to Morris himself (as stadium owner) and not to the club. Thus, this loan money can’t be money directly given to the club, but to Morris. Thus would only be able to be used as part of his own cash injections into the club, not as a source of ‘club’ earnings. 
     

    Presumably? 

    Assuming this is just a way to prove the value of the stadium was legit by opening a line of credit against it. If this ends up in the hands of the club surely there will be repercussions (probably not knowing FFP)

    I would be interested to see who the 3rd party is, and who carried out the valuation on their behalf.... and whether they are on Morris' Christmas card list.
