    Thanks for reminding this fan of Tommy Casey. A really good and solid footballer as I remember.

    As for today, I am forgetting for a moment the catastrophes that are LJ, SL, and our silent Board, and am turning back the clock 70 years, when I cared nothing but for a City win and some player being the hero of the hour. Perhaps that player will be one of our own, Reid or Cotterill, perhaps a newbie, Taylor or Djuric, or perhaps a final hurrah from Wibs

    COYR

    Class player from an era when the game was a pleasure to watch.

    I see the BP have published a completely pointless article that attempts to perpetuate the myth of sag heads singing and supporting the team throughout and that the mem is a "fantastic" stadium creating an "excellent" atmosphere.

    The writer is meant to be impartial but is clearly blowing smoke up their arse, amongst other things comparing it favourably with the Pirelli, kingsmeadow and priestfield stadiums (not really raising the bar much) however, I can't help thinking this article may be some sort of boardroom propaganda pushed out to the media to start sowing the seed for staying at the mem......?

    STATEMENT: MATTY TAYLOR TRANSFER

    Bristol Rovers will not be pursuing its complaint to the EFL following the transfer of striker Matty Taylor to Bristol City, it was announced today.
     
    The decision comes after Bristol Rovers had discussions with the EFL who had pointed out the clause in Schedule 4.8 Section 85 Part 3 of the EFL Code of Conduct which refers to complaints coming from "whinging tossers"
     
    Bristol Rovers will be making no further comment on the matter.

    Typical Gas. They make themselves look total idiots by bringing the matter up. then drop it after the FL has a quiet word with them.

    In 1779 new horse race was planned, and it was decided that it should be named after either the 12th Earl of Derby, or one of his guests, Sir Charles Bunbury. According to legend the decision was made by the toss of a coin, but it is probable that Bunbury, the Steward of the Jockey Club, deferred to his host. The race has been known as The Derby ever since. What is the link to Derby County FC? 

    None, but the Bunburies is a better name for their supporters 

    But the town in WA is called Bunbury, not Derby, so there you go...

    Condensed Version

    Derby County (R):

    Were crap in 2007 - 2008.

    Formed by some lads from the local cricket club.

    Ask for a "cob" with your beer in order to get a smile from a local who will think you are a knob.

    1-1

    Surely a cob is a hard roll and a bap is soft? I asked the lass in the bakery whether she had big baps and she threw me out :(

    3-0 Derby
