Wembley, Wembley...

Over the same fixtures McClaren's team managed to garner one more point than Clough's. That seems right to me, Clough wasn't bad, McClaren and his coaching staff are better. I would say that we have a better coaching staff than most of the Premiership.

We can revisit how we got here 'til the cows come home, but rather just laud the job that McClaren, Simmo and some other bloke have done since arriving to replace the man who led us to midtable obscurity in perpetuity

I genuinely believe the lads will have a great chance at furthering their careers and international claims next season if we get up and hope Sam Rush holds them to their contracts if we don't, because they're a great bunch who represent our best chance at winning the league next season.

The Baggies survived, innit, and the rumours are that their manager, Pepe Jeans, is going back to Wigan or wherever he came from, so Gorgeous George may well elect to go fight for a place there; let's hope he can help promote us and hopefully make his decision that much harder.

666 knows

Predicting that is akin to predicting it will grow dark before tomorrow.

I did however back my skill in prediction with a £10 wager at 16 to 1 back in August that Derby would be promoted this season. Things are still looking good and give me more reason to smile than predicting the demise of a West Brom's manager.

You're an old curmudgeon, 666 NC laid the foundations, Mac, Simmo & steel have taken it a step further. The other bloke, Eric Steel to you...has turned Grant into a top class keeper. Epic coaching

Spart...good call

I'm surprised you only got 16s with Your Nige still at the helm back then, Spart!

It's not really coaching, ItalianMoj: chucking a ball at Granty, making him roll around a bit... I reckon I could do that. Steel's a drain on the resources. Steel OUT

If your prowess at chucking a football is anything like your prowess at striking a golf ball, 666, then the only aspect of the game in which you are likely to improve Granty is of searching futilely for it in the long grass, which is likely to prove of limited value to the success of the team.

Exactly!

Steele and 666 OUT

I never thought I would hear a Doris Day song played at a Rams match! Takes me back a long time.

Bring back the Dambusters I say.
