Derby 1 Saints 1 Big Pat gets his first goal in the black and white, in a game where Derby looked more of a consistent threat, against a promotion favourite. Promising signs and hints of what this team is capable of and is working towards. Need to tighten up & cut out mistakes. #dcfc #dcfcfans

Feels like a free hit today, against the Saints… I’d just like to see us be more expressive and brave, especially starting the game. Weather is going to be awful, and will play its part. Safe travels to Pride Park everyone! #dcfc #dcfc

Missing the match tonight, but still got a 🐏 to rest my pint on! #dcfc

Pre-gig fuel (driving + school night)

Ozoh over Adams tonight? Need someone to bring the ball forwards. With Saints arriving on Saturday, tonight is a game we could really do with winning! #dcfc #dcfcfans

No football for me tonight, although I’ll not be far away! We’ve got a gig - Will Varley playing at The Old Bell. Last time I was there it was for a Fans Forum and a certain disgraced former #DCFC owner bought me a pint… 😅

Had a fun trip to York at the weekend!

Packed & arrived for a 3-day weekend! Tomorrow we’ll be going on an adventure…

This is how it begins, with indirect insinuations and fake-humble pleas of uncertainty, as if online conspiracy theories, cranks and grifters carry equal weight to the overwhelming body of scientific evidence and medical expert opinion. Then they get into power and start shredding the health service

Blithering incoherent racist fool.

My latest #VideoGame review… Grab #TheFlayedMan on Steam - perfect for #SpookySeason! 🎃

It’s new #audiobook time! Given that we are, pretty much, in #SpookySeason, I’ll be jumping straight into some folk-horror! Excited to arrive at Withered Hill… #Audible #HorrorSky

Looking through some old photos of me… What the hell is going on here?? Those 90s were wild! 😅

Bad, and wet, day at the office… Eustace will have learned a lot from that, admitting he got it wrong in the first half. Travis and Morris quality. Big Pat looks raw but very exciting. Lessons will be learned. Atmosphere awol… #dcfc #dcfcfans

Staying out the rain with a Guinness 0% (as I’m driving). What we thinking Rams fans? Slippery surface should make for an interesting match! #dcfc #dcfcfans

Yikes… it’s been a rough week… From kung-fu werewolves to Oscar level cinematography ruined by everything else! Follow me 📲 boxd.it/8gEen #LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched

Time to kickoff #SpookySeason with a classic… #NowPlaying Amnesia: The Dark Descent #Gaming #Horror

Death, taxes and beating the Baggies… Yesterday was a textbook away day smash n’ grab, with the clinical Rams getting the job done. I cannot remember the last time we had a bench that strong, and clearly it made the difference. 4/6 points against two top 6 sides, not bad going! #dcfc #dcfcfans

A strong start, and a strong finish! #LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched

Here’s my spoiler free thoughts on #TheConjuringLastRites 📝

Had a fun time at Golf Fang in Sheffield on Saturday! ⛳️

Going into the last hour of the Summer Transfer Window and I’ve never felt so relaxed… Business done. Today we’ll about outgoings. Yes, a winger would be nice, but if we need to keep our powder dry for January, then fine by me! #dcfc #dcfcfans

Kane Wilson played his part in our promotion story, but his chapter has now come to an end. His mazy runs lit up Pride Park and brought fans to their feet. He gave everything for the shirt, and he leaves with the respect and gratitude of every Rams supporter! 🐏 #dcfc #dcfcfans

Kane Wilson’s level is easily top end L1 or lower-bottom half Championship… so these MK Franchise reports are wild! I know The Franchise are paying silly money on wages, but that’s a huge drop down in terms of playing level and ability. Guess they’re hoping Ward stays fit? #dcfc #dcfcfans

Can't repost this enough. The insanity of all-consuming media and political focus on #Reform when they only have 4 seats is so clearly illustrated here. Ask yourself why this might be? In who's interest?

The Times says Reform “has no track record to weigh it down”… Other than: Islamophobia, racism, inept councillors, MP absenteeism, admiration for Putin, love of Trump, brazen grifting, idiotic manifesto, dodgy donations and Brexit… the single stupidest thing the country has done in our lifetimes.

Weird signing players who have had a full pre-season AND are match fit! 😂 #DCFC #DCFCFans

Signing No.2 of the day, and another long term investment. We are lacking on the right. Nyambe is terrified to go past the half way line, and Wilson will always have question marks over his end product. More pace in the team is a positive. Welcome to Derby, Max! #DCFC #DCFCFans

🎶🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🐏 O’ Max Johnston, When will we see, your likes again? Bombing on down the, The right wing of Derby for me. And whip a cross in (CROSS IN!) For Carlton Morris, To head it goalwards, And score again! 🤔😅 #DCFC #DCFCFans

Dajaune Brown has secured himself a great move to #PVFC. He desperately needs game time and he’s still a season away of forward progression from being ready for the Championship. League One will be a good test for him. All the best DB! 🐏 #DCFC #DCFCFans

The Lewis Travis saga is finally over! Personally, I think this is a big missing piece of the midfield puzzle solved. Win the ball, protect the back 4 and play the simple pass to the creative players. Controversial opinion, but for me, I’d give him the captaincy during the I/B. #dcfc #dcfcfans

So, as we reach the halfway point, it’s safe to say the pacing has the show treading water. Hopefully the next batch of episodes improve on this and deliver a rewarding payoff. But aside from some good performances, I’m a little bored… #AlienEarth

Derby B pushed Burnley B, but another avoidable goal in injury time ends our cup run. But it was a glorified friendly, ultimately. Great to get minutes in the legs to several key players. Sanderson looked solid for the second game running. A result I expected, so no issue. #dcfc #dcfcfans

I missed the first minute of the game, so I have no idea who they are, but I’ve gotta say, I’ve been impressed with this summariser! #dcfc #dcfcfans

If Derby always beating West Brom is a thing, so is Burnley beating Derby! 😂 Tonight is all about fitness and minutes, and hopefully, not picking up any injuries. With that said, we need our defensive starters to come in after the International Break, coz the B team get exposed SO easily. #dcfc

Had a great time at Matlock Bath the other day! #Derbyshire #DayTrip

Wait, I thought Zetterström was awful? Why would a Prem team, known for targeting, improving and selling on players are interested? Maybe he’s not as awful as some think? 🤔

24 hours later… Derby started bright, but sat deep and then another defensive-shape mishap led to an easily avoidable goal. Looked better when switched to a back 4, and highlights we will be a different side once we get players back and fit. Great to get our first point on the board! #dcfc

Fair to say, it’s been a disappointing week regarding incoming players*… Tonight is already going to be a tough ask with what players we have available, a few new faces could have put a spring in the steps of fans. Some of who are already reaching for their pitchforks. *unless we announce soon

24 hours later… 5 avoidable goals, and another game where we’ve thrown it away with the points in our hands. To be expected, given the options available, and until we make further additions and get players back, it’s going to be a rough August. BUT patience is the key. We’ll be fine.

Bad news… she’s going on Friday now too… 😅😅😅

Match day playlist! LFG!!!!!! 🐏🐏🐏 open.spotify.com/playlist/7fU... #dcfc #dcfcfans

Turns out #Weapons wasn’t my highest rated… #LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched

Taking my GF to her second Pride Park match tomorrow! She’s seen two Derby games - Luton last season, and Matlock* in pre-season. Record: L1, D1 - So, due a win right? 😅 *Losing until she left the ground, we then equalised. So, might be cursed.

Tried being a shepherd, I don’t think I’ll be quitting my day job anytime soon… 😅 #VillageLife #Derbyshire #Countryside

@stevebloomerpod.bsky.social Robbery In The West Midlands (DCFC 1 WBA 1)

Terrible 95 minutes, with a moment of quality, in the 96th, to take it to penalties, and top saves in the shootout see us into the next round. Great to get minutes into important players. Ward would be some player if he wasn’t made of candy floss. Great away support. 🐏 #dcfc #dcfcfans

Awful, from this Derby XI, but expected. Feel for Brown, so isolated. Very narrow on the wings. Simple for WBA, who will be kicking themselves they aren’t in front. Give Ozoh a few more minutes then call it. All about 3 points on Saturday. #dcfc #dcfcfans
