Are you going live? should be fun with the Radio Derby "special" at 6pm.....

Well late last night I was told to bet on McClaren being appointed in the next 24 hours got decent odds and it will pay for some beers on Saturday

That information would have been handy when you got it Griff!

Thanks for the text Griff!

Thanks for the text Griff,took a bit persauding but a group of us had individual bets....it laid off handsomely

Mr Morris is either daft, or has huge balls.

I think it's the latter and I welcome SM back with open arms.

I think you need my 'phone no. Griff

I was pleased when my mate told me this morning at work he'd put the bet on and I owed him. Just got to get my winnings off him. Not seen him since lunch time

Just need to bring Bucko back now

SMc had him playing some lovely stuff

Just looked at my texts, I texted my dad in the 13th sept to tell him Pearson was going to be replaced by McClaren. He thought I'd gone mad.

Fridge, bucko won't come back now McClaren is back

I've just posted this little analogy on Facebook, I think it's quite fitting 😂

Imagine getting with a girl, you flirted in your younger days, didn't see each other for a while, she even went out with someone you hate, but you finally get together.
Everything seems great, for the first year at least, having some of the best secs of your life. So great that you tie into a longer contract by getting engaged.
Then others start to find her attractive, you hear rumours of her flirting with a richer guy with a higher stature. She denies it but the rumours persist, you get suspicious but still she denies it. It has soured the relationship, things fall apart and eventually you split up.
Before you know it she is in a relationship with the guy from all the rumours, you were right all along.
You have a few more girlfriends, some are boring, some inexperienced and one mentally unhinged. Things quickly fall apart with the girl and the richer guy, they split and she is left with a battered reputation, she struggles to find another guy.
The stars align and you secretly meet the girl again and agree to start over, which is now where we find ourselves....... I am obviously talking about Derby County and Steve McClaren! God help us if this doesn't work out again!! 😂😂😂😂

But if that girlfriend was dirtier than the others you'd always take her back

Are you sure you've not just written your autobiography Tommo

Going to put a cheeky £5 bet on us getting promoted now.
I've asked for the odds on winning the play off final 1 nil and Martin scoring. Just waiting for the reply. Might be worth £1

She'll be back with an STD

Worth a look, some of he career quotes. The video from his Newcastle time is interesting!

Six months later....

She regains her confidence in her attractiveness and worth after getting married to you for the second time and everybody agrees that the both of you are a perfect fit.

Then one cold afternoon in March you begin to worry because her phone is off. You thought this strange because you always rang home from work on your lunch break. Because you love her, you decide to pay her a surprise visit with some flowers.

You open the front door and immediately suspect that something is amiss.

Your heart begins to race as you realise that you can smell a musky male odour that is not your own. Your senses are heightened as blood begins to course through your brain. You hear her giggles, then moans, then deep throbbing sighs of ecstasy as you make your way up the stairs.

This can't be happening, you tell yourself.

Opening the bedroom door tells you that it is. The ugly, balding, sixty year old postman - 5'2" in his socks - is sending your wife into orbit. He turns to you and kisses the Nottingham Forest badge of his football shirt before returning his attention to your wife.

He knows you won't do anything. You don't have it in you.

Then your wife glances over and instead of reeling in horror, she points to the man's piston quick technique and says:

"This is how you take a woman. It's over between us."

Six months after that......

You spend your days wasting money on a succession of hookers as you await your divorce and subsequent severance agreement.

Well it brought Rush out of the woodwork.

2 pm Friday, press conference.

Should be an interesting watch

Nigel Clough went back to Burton and they are actually doing better than us at the moment. Billy Davies went back to Forest and........well probably not the best example.

evenin all..

never a dull day eh?
well,this could end in 2 ways. 1....sm turns us back into a top 6 side,playing some exciting stuff,brings a few new faces in in jan. and we push on to autos or play offs.

2..the players remember sm the last time and cannot forgive him for being a judas last time,go running to mm crying ,he gets the sack and we end up bottom of the league with the dogs and drop out the championship....


in my humble opinion .........im quite an optimist..i think sm will have an immediate effect,he will lift the doom and gloom thats about the ipro at the mow.
any ram moaning about his return should 1..remember how attractive football we were playing under him,wembly play off final..2...its not just fans that are fickle,FOOTBALL in general is fickle,managers,players,chairmen etc.theres no loyalty in the game nowdays. we can all say we are not but trust me, you work for a decent company but get the chance to work for a top company with better benifits youd be off like a shot..
i say,you cannot forget but you can forgive,mm wont be so stupid this time..i like a lot of you are a rams fan,not a manager fan....so....

ALL ABOARD THE DERBY ROLLER COASTER..HERE WE GO AGAIN...CMON URAMSSSSSSSSSSSSSS...


p,s ha,mm has top trumped fazwizz..watch him go and bring the poison dwarf back to out do us..id peeeee my myself.....

Am I the only one disturbed by the analogies? I'm not sure which is worse. The mental image of Steve and the postman locked in a carnal embrace, or the nagging possibility that Uncle's unusually detailed post is largely based on his own personal marital problems.
