Yep,
Uptil now I read some of your (LE) archived posts..
Look forward to reading it live now !!
You are welcome.

Funnily enough, 'Delkap' backwards is 'Pakled' which sounds a bit like 'pickled' - which is what I am likely to be in an hour or so, having started on the home-made beer a little too early for my own good

Good news Eddie. Hope you are feeling a lot better now. :)

Guess that you started early on that home brew due to the Rams losing to the lowest of the low, Leeds?

:laugh:

It's now 40 years since Derby have enjoyed an away victory on the opening day of the season, so hardly surprising.

Saying that, we were desperately unlucky not to get a draw.

<quack> check the above for typos. He was drinking way before the game kicked off - and still is.

Yeah, my team Grimsby lost to a late-ish goal as well. :(

Looking forward to the appearance of Paul Gascoigne on Tuesday for Boston United. Last time he was at Grimsby for Burnley, he got an ovation and chants of 'One Paul Gascoigne, there's only one Paul Gascoigne' from the hardcore GTFC fans during the game when he dropped that shoulder and waltzed round our defenders, was awesome yet sad all at once because it reminded what he could have been.

He saluted our end when he was brought off as well. Been a big favourite of mine since then (even more than before).

First and only time I've ever seen an opposition player being applauded. In fact, usually they get the middle finger and as many expletives as the local scallies can muster.

I'm beginning to subscribe to your theory of following rather than supporting. I follow the results of Grimsby, Man Utd, Colchester and Rotherham but I'm not sure whether I support any of them.

Having said that, if Man Utd played any other team in the world, I'd cheer for them so I guess they might be my main team. However I'm a bit disenchanted with the whole English setup now with the commercialisation and crap that goes with it.

I'm think I'm turning into a Yorkie with their 'in my day' anachronisms.

Anyway that's way OT and hijacking DD's personal lair.

To sum up, basically, you're exposed as a dirty scarf-influenced glory hunter and you wish to change the subject.

Hang on a minute, Red S**m fan disenchanted with the commercialisation of football? you only have yourself to blame!

Not going to apportion blame mate. Probably was a lot to do with Man Utd but I'm just bored of it all now.

Seeing as he's in Hospital with a perforated ulcer in his stomach, I'd wager he won't be playing.
