Well, it wasn't a corner. Two of our players let the ball trickle out of play when either could have cleared it for a throw-in.

The match was abandoned so the next one will start with a clean sheet and that's that.

Quoted from sydney
Just Back
Soaked fed up and me Birthday
But
Right decision to abandon
They looked sharp
We looked, not like the same from Sat
But forget tonight and onwards
Come on Town!!


Agree,

Arrived in Grimsby 19.25 after driving up from a meeting in Kingston, left Grimsby at 20:25 for a trip home that took in 2 diversions as well as p1ssing it down all of the way, back in the house at 11.55.

UTM!!!

Would you be furious if it was the other way round?

My only gripe was that it didn't look to be a corner!


My only gripe was letting it slowly roll out for a corner rather than clearing it, Why take a chance on the ref getting a tricky decision correct?

Anyone know what the attendance was and how many Derby fans ?


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

I disagree, the players left it because they were confident that the ball was going out for a goal kick - it certainly looked it from the upper.
If they had booted it into touch they would have been berated for wasting possession.

Leaving the conditions out of it, Derby are a decent side, but we were doing ok and several times got into dangerous areas. Had the makings of a good game. Cannot comment on the corner/no corner as it was impossible to tell from the middle of the main stand. Although a guy near me was getting wound up with the ref for giving it, saying it was never a corner. Unreal

Quoted from Mallyner
What unbelievable rain and having shown no sign of slowing down, it had to be abandoned.

On the Derby forum, somebody has mentioned that some teams would allow the side who were winning the first game, to walk the ball into the net.
Something no doubt that would not have been mentioned, if we had scored the goal.

One of them said it was because our pitch was so s--t it couldn't soak up a bit of water, when in fact it was stunningly beautiful at the kick off, considering all the rain. And it didn't cut up too.


We just about did that last night, I can't remember who challenged Keogh but it might as well have been my wife.

Same as last season, just about another free header.

I think it was Collins of all people who lost his man and let him get half a yard in front of him. I suppose he might have slipped, given the conditions.
