  1. If he stays fit he'll be as important to us as Korey was. He's been quality in the appearances so far and ok sure he'll only get better with match fitness etc. I think all credit needs to go to the new medical team and Joe to get him to where he is because something wasn't right last season as he was always injured.
  2. If it was Joe Williams on the edge of the box that the fans are talking about the highlights don't show much but none of the players are appealing for handball which you would expect.
  3. A thin and inferior squad who are in the play offs. A squad that isn't calling in a favour for a mate to get a contract. But we all know what they will be saying "we won the first half" "we're only 5 points off the play offs" (whilst failing to mention they are 3 points off the bottom of the table). "Garner was negligent and now we're paying for it" etc.
  4. There has to be some word that describes failing to take proper care of a club that any normal person would. A word that starts with N I would say...
  5. I'm 30 first game my dad took me to was a derby which we won 2-0. But I don't think of them as a rival the gap has been there for pretty much most of my life and it's hard to see them as rivals I'm more concerned with Cardiff and Swansea then I am the 15ers. They are obsessed with us (singing songs about us, checking scores constantly etc) but it feels like we've moved on, we'll all have a chuckle about their misfortune but it's hard to think of them as a true rival anymore.
  6. Just remember what he did at Ipswich. Under huge constraints 14th, 9th, 6th, 7th, 16th and 12th and then Ipswich fans didn't want him because of his style and they got relegated the season after. Having to do basically a rebuilding job at wolves because of financial issues. He has a good record at this level much like Warnock.
  7. He's American they like to be different but he is probably the best left back in the championship. Tanner had a few moments yesterday but he is still learning and pretty much all of that Fulham team have prem experience and international experience he gave a fantastic account of himself and will only improve.
  8. So the teams around you and the team that is currently 2 leagues above you. Well it makes sense for the teams that are around you, I'm sure quite a few fans were pleased we drew with Fulham other teams around us probably didn't like we drew with them and picked up a point but I'm sure Liverpool's fans were irritated by it as well!
  9. So they've got an agreed deal with marvel so no issue with the licensing. They aren't actively promoting marvel because they've got a different sponsor on their shirt. How is this advertising? If marvel were the official sponsors would they still quash it? What about every other sponsor? They are technically advertising.
  10. I'm sure they were accounting for the 300 that were "locked out" because after all their "loyal and Prowed" fan base always turn out in numbers no matter where they are.
  11. It's good to actually have it go our way usually we'd be on the end of this.
  12. I see the sags won have they declared Jailbird the second coming of Christ yet and has HMS piss the league started to set sail?
  13. I mean the dog ate my homework worked once when I was at school why shouldn't they try and hoodwink the EFL with it!
  14. I thought rovers got permission on the basis that one of the pitches would be used by the community when Rovers weren't training. I'm sure their "Loyal and Prowed" fans will be happy with that.
  15. Going onto a point raised by @BTRFTG is there any evidence that derby have paid rent on the stadium? Or is it contained in accounts that aren't on companies House? Because surely if no rent has been paid that would incur an additional penalty?
  16. So HMRC are a preferential creditor. I would imagine the MSD would probably be one of the main creditors as well. Cocu and Keogh will not get as much as they hoped I would imagine. Given the debt they have to HMRC and MSD and the fact that the stadium is NOT in the admin package any potential interested parties would surely think twice. I doubt they'll be able to renew the deals for Davies, Baldock at the lot as they were only agreed short term EFL deals. Derby have put themselves in the s**t trying to get around the rules has led them to this situation.
  17. They agreed a settlement with the EFL https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/44980113
  18. All credit to QPR as well they were a proper mess and to not only remain a championship club but a competitive one now they've done amazing.
  19. Probably a small area in Horfield but I wouldn't consider a lot of areas in Bristol as blue anymore.
  20. I really don't get it. Garner had a plan and it was always going to take time but the potential of it was huge, couple of players sell for 6 figures and suddenly everyone is laughing. The fact they hired Barton with no guarantee of continuing this plan just baffles me (as does the fact they hired him in the first place) yes you need to blend youth and experience together but relying on Pitman and Clarke to get you promoted is only going to end badly and there is no resale value. Barton has taken the club backwards.
  21. You mean 36 year old Leon Clarke isn't going to get them £15m?!
  22. Right so they have breached FFP for possibly numerous years will they be punished for that as well as the 21 points from administration and the EFL thing.
  23. Richer then us, coming for us, new stadium in 3 years was it? Boycotting Sainsbury's, always blaming officials, hundreds locked out. No idea why you'd call them special...
