I can see they've tried to group teams geographically within the northern section but it doesn't make 100% sense. Switch us for Burton and into group F with Bradford and the Wendys and it makes a bit more sense as they'd be grouped with Derby and Mansfield. I'm unlikely to go to any of the games but certainly not the B team one.

Which smacks of the delusion the EFL have over this trophy.  They actually believe that people will be more interested to see which Academy side their team are grouped with...

Can’t imagine I’d be going to watch any games in papa johns as u21 team will be at blundell park and no wish to go to Mansfield if away. Derby away might be interesting but probably won’t go

No pizza for me on this one...










'I walked in the dressing room. The window was open and I thought that a sea fret had got in. Then I saw smoke billowing from a pipe in the corner of the room...it was my centre-forward. He looked seven stone wet through. He went on to score thirty-odd goals that season.' Lawrie McMenemy on encountering the legend that was Matt Tees.

No deal yet, but plenty of interested parties, including Mike Ashley. Now that the previous bidder has pulled out the administrators can talk to other bidders. I am guessing a deal will be done in the coming fortnight.

FFS guys. At least have the decency to call them by their proper name.
It’s ‘Wayne Rooney’s Derby County.’  Do you not read social media ??


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

We might not even play Derby as they have no manager ( Rooney resigns ), not enough players for a team and no owner. If you add that they no longer own the ground and the administrators have to borrow money to pay the Junes wage bill, then they are in deep excrement.

Mike Ashley might be waiting in the wings but will he be willing to pump millions into this venture.


You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

I would imagine he will be waiting to swoop in once the price has hit rock bottom.
