I enjoy the pubs in London and have better away days there than places like huddesfield Burnley etc

I find the bars in London not much more expensive than Derby

Plenty of real ale pub's in Huddersfield with a pint as low as 1.99

I'd say about £1.00 to £1.50 a pint more expensive compared to Liverpool.

So on a "good" day out, it's going to cost you about a tenner more for your beer ............. not a deal breaker for me (I know it might be for some), but it's certainly easier to get about in London than most cities.

I'm still sulking because my easiest away day of the year is on Boxing Day............... and there are no trains running .

Missed a good 1 at Rangers last weekend

Or a 'Smith', as it's known....

Morning all.

Fooking Smith, can't get him out.

Just hoping Jofra can

Roos

Bogle...Keogh...Evans..Malone
............Bielik.......Huddz..........
.................Dowell.....................
..Zoon.........Waggy........TL.......

I think is what we'll see I might be tempted to put Bennett on for Zoon though and have the option of switching to a directer diamond if chasing the game. Don't think that's Cocu's style though.

Subs:

Carson
Bennett
Anya
Clarke
Lowe
Martin
Sibley/Shinnie

Is Holmes fit??

Long question, short answer...

No.

Boring answer.

Marriott and Holmes injured. Where are the goals going to come from?

One thing always makes me happy with your posts 2W. The knowledge that you will never be manager.

Hate to say it but I don't have a good win %age when we play on TV and I go to the local hostelry, however, the last game I saw there was the semi-final second leg.............!

UTR

Careful Spart don't put it out there into the universe.

What would your team be Spart?

He'd clone Keogh and play all 11.

Think I would have Shinnie for Hudz for a start. We need more mobility in midfield. Bennett for Flojo.

Wish we had more options up front, scoring will be a major problem. Need to sign someone who can make things happen in the attack rather than journeymen and apparent failures like Flojo and TL. They both need to do something to prove their worth. Occasional flashes from TL but nothing from Flojo so far.

I did say the team I posted was what I think we'll see.

I think Cocu will want to play 2 central MF's ahead of Bielik eventually, just don't think we have all the pieces of the jigsaw at the moment to do that.

Not sure Shinnie is in Cocu's plans I might be wrong though.

I hope so - he's come a long way not to be in the starting 11

The Heb curse of all Scottish players failing at Derby continues.
