Boxing Day - festivities over, twiddling our thumbs, pacing nervously, driving up the M1, A637, A642, A629, finally A62 - L***ds Road.
For the Derby faithful making the journey to the magnificent John Smith's stadium (has to be the best in the Championship), news that our captain and talisman Richard Keogh is out for 4 weeks after suffering knee ligament damage against Donny. Keane to step into the breach, I hope he and Jake have spent Christmas together, so they will know each other better.....
James Vaughan (one of vast pool of ex Derby loanees) starts for Huddersfield as does Joel Lynch who had been suspended.

Has Dawkins only got one more game for you guys until his loan comes to an end?
I suppose it's bad that AVB was sacked, as new managers often call in the loans to assess the talent themselves.
He does look good from whet I've seen

The deal with Dawkins may already be done according to rumour, thanks for your concern. Apparently we are also interested in Forest legend Patrick Bamford on loan. Is he any good as back-up for us in your opinion?

Not really any fair measure to judge his footballing ability whilst in a Billy Davies side, Vidal's... Good to know he can foul if necessary though, and if unnecessary, come to think of it.
