TheFranchise 0 Report post Posted March 3, 2006 No disrespect to Derby but I have to say I could never work for that club in and capacity. And I mean never. People might say I'm being rediculous but that's just the way it is. Even if I was desperate and they were the only club around, I couldn't do it. I'd rather go on the dole and take my chances. This was great. It'd be like Igor Stimac managing Forest. Watch it happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PLAGIARISM! 0 Report post Posted March 4, 2006 Well the BBC reporter described Bullen forcing an 'Outrageous' save in the closing stages. Bugger. Fucking Millwall won as well, we can't have that. Still, its reassuring we pressured them after conceding, not just dying off like normal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Murmuring Beast 0 Report post Posted March 5, 2006 Our game was postponed due to a frozen pitch. I think that might be the case for our game on Tuesday as well (which is a re-arranged game, ironically). Also, does anyone have any strikers we can borrow?

PLAGIARISM! 0 Report post Posted March 5, 2006 We didn't score in seven...that was er, when David Graham was in the side. Went to the game when we finally did, beating Burnley away 2-1 on new year's eve. Then out in Manchester. Good times. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deancoles 0 Report post Posted March 6, 2006 Got a 1-1, any of chance of winning dissappeared with the virus, both keepers looked awful, Wes Morgan and Liam Fontaine(who we need signed before someone pinches him) should be playing at a higher level than this.

PLAGIARISM! 0 Report post Posted March 6, 2006 Sturrock's line regarding Saturday is 'The performance but not the result' which from numerous reports sounds about right. Some reassurance. I reckon we could get a win over QPR... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Murmuring Beast 0 Report post Posted March 9, 2006 2-1 win on Tuesday night in front of a whopping crowd of 249 at Berwick Rangers. I just about missed the first goal (I was at the other end, buying a burger from the van) and so I thought I was going to avoid seeing the only goal we'd score on the night. They equalised a minute later and I reckoned that we had chucked it but we managed a winner 7 minutes from the end to spark off bedlam scenes on the terracing in the freezing cold. A crucial victory over bitter rivals. Well worth the 200-mile-round trip. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

deancoles 0 Report post Posted March 21, 2006 If the following 2 things happen I can see no way we don't finish top 6 next year, had the season started Christmas we'd be 2nd. 1: Keep Brooker 2: Get Fontaine at end of his loan and keep playing him at CB with Carey No 2 might be difficult, assists from his own box aren't going to help, Fulham could extend his contract or a Championship team get him(biggest fear) hopefully he'll sign for the manager who's got him on loan 3 times.

The Decemberists 0 Report post Posted March 21, 2006 Part of me is quite excited by the prospect of Keane, especially if, say, Brian Kidd comes along as his number 2, but part of me also thinks he could well turn out to be a disaster like Platt... 2: Get Fontaine at end of his loan and keep playing him at CB with Carey No 2 might be difficult, assists from his own box aren't going to help, Fulham could extend his contract or a Championship team get him(biggest fear) hopefully he'll sign for the manager who's got him on loan 3 times.
