Why was he openly trying to buy Derby then?

Promising Houllier might be a tad over the top however much of a chancer he might be!!

and for those of us a bit older there's Les Cartwright

This whole business makes little sense to me. Why on earth would SISU have signed an exclusivity deal with him, or anyone else for that matter? If SISU were prepared to sell up surely they could have brokered a better deal by publicly stating the club were for sale and setting up bidders against...

A winnable home game is a good tie for us. Their decent support will help fill the coffers as will the prize money for getting to the 4th round. If we can't sell 10,000 to our own fans then I would question whether our fans really deserve us to go any further however, but hopefully we will and...

Winnable home draw would do for me

So even if he wants to stay to the end of the season you would want to sell him in January?

Obviously it is in our interests for him to sign a new deal, but if Gyokeres had as negative a mindset as you portray I don't think he'd be half the player he is.

Surely if it was cut and dried, ie the clock only runs when the ball is in play, then there is little room for argument. Much less than now anyway, when it is much more arbitrary, depending on the whim of a ref as to whether he wants to add time on or not.

So is this a full on boycott, or an attempt to start one by a few disgruntled souls? I would expect them to bring 2000 regardless, and if they get a couple of good results before they play us maybe more.

Kastaneer!!

Surely Ashley is more likely to make money out of the arena by having a successful football club operating out of it? The more successful the club, the more attention the arena gets. That is why I find it hard to believe that at some point he will not want some control over it to help achieve...

You clearly grew up on a diet of Scooby Doo. If it wasn't for those pesky kids.........

Doubt Croatia played a game in the week that Jarni was our player :(

I think Palmer is fit. I just don't think he has the natural fitness to play 90 minutes at the pace the team are set up when we play at our best like Allen or O'Hare do. That doesn't mean that he doesn't contribute or won't contribute, but with the increasing use of subs across football, there...

The only chance is to keep the team together and add a couple of 'quality' loans to bulk out the squad for when injuries and suspensions inevitably kick in. At this moment in time that is a very unlikely scenario.

Didn't take long though to see that injuries had made him wary in the tackle, which is a bit of a drawback in League 1.

I presume that if a preferred bidder is chosen and given a period of exclusivity it is wise to be sure that the bidder has the requisite funds. I think its a safe bet that Ashley does have the necessary funds, certainly more so than maybe a Dawkins or SISU led bid would. Derby got caught with...

It is further than I thought to be fair, but still one of their easiest games to travel to being straight down the M4.

I think 2k is it. They played Bristol City a couple of weeks back and they only received that allocation despite it being very local to them, so I wouldn't anticipate us getting any more.
