Re: TONIGHT: 2023/24 Club Annual Shareholders Meeting and Fans’ Forum
"I'd like to see the Trust ask the club more questions about future plans & how they actually want to set about achieving them but unfortunately, being part the board too, their position is compromised." So - no supporter ownership and no say apart from outside of the board...? Is that...

Re: FFS JUST WIN!!!+
Great result and, given ther fare over the last few weeks, I thought we were really quite good tonight... Pretty good perforfances across the board... Nuttall and Thomas especially; both threatened. Still a very tough three games to come... which makes you wonder where that 90 (+20) minute performan...

"Luckily, none of the players will be (or bloody well shouldn't be) looking on here."
So true... if they read the "Nest" we could have been relegated last season...! And the one before.

Re: Cheltenham Town v Carlisle United
Si Robin... Good observations above. On the whole I thought Nutall did OK. For me, inspite of the Radio Glos praise for it, I thought the big tactical change for this game was wrong. Second half better - BUT we do know (of old) finding the goal, and/or better still scoring one, is generally hard wor...

Supporter numbers help... You also need to show some respect to the supporter base.

For most years it was a non-league Che...

Re: The rest of the season
I've not yet written off staying up. That said. League One, League Two players, and a surprise or too. Then the key factor. A good manager - who seems to give a toss. We have that proven.
We can still do it. I'll leave it that.

I still struggle to see how enhanced non-match day income at Whaddon Road will rise enough to justify the rebuilding of the Grandseat.

If it is just "If I recall...?" That's surely IFR? Either way, please just type it... If something else, please educate but do not assume.

From what I have gleaned (and experienced) Derby fans expect much more than they offered on Saturday. Oh to be at that end o...
