Just had a glance at the Derby's forum, they are very very up for this one.
But i don't get it, if they thought GR football was so bad (which it seems it is), and they have started well under FL, why are they that arsed?
When we swapped Kenwyne for Peter Odemwingie i was over the moon, wished KJ well as we had the better deal by a mile. It also seems Derby have had the better deal too.

Grown men bringing blow up inflatable snakes to a football match. Grown men... definitely the sort of odd bunch who already own other blow up inflatables for "personal" use.

We got the better deal when Quitterell fucked off, are we magnanimous about him? It’s more the fact he 180ed on what he said 5 months previous and left his contract that he’d demanded to stay in Janaury.

They've got a bit of the West Ham's about then haven't they, Derby supporters. I think that's the top and bottom of it.

 They're definitely going to hiss aren't they? Only thing gayer is West Ham players / fans doing the cross sign with their arms. |

Also, let's not forget they were over the fucking moon when he signed his contract.
Still, I can't see him getting any love from any side of the ground tonight.

It’s all a bit strange, most Derby fans were happy to see the back of Rowett after their play off defeat to Fulham, they found his football tedious and thought he was underachieving with the squad he had (sounds familiar).
They’ve now got a manger they are all behind and are enjoying some decent footy, yet they are all still salty as fuck about Rowett leaving them.

Take it you weren't around for he Pink Panther period of the Eighties? English football was in the doldrums. Standard was shit, crowds were shit, grounds were shit (though at least for the most part they were in the centres of towns), pitches were shit - but there was only limited live football on TV so we turned up and made our own entertainment. And d'ya know what I looked forward to match day then far more then than I do now*. Oh And I never shagged one of 'em (inflatable Pink Panther that is). Disclaimer:- this could be a case of rose tinted spectacles or misty-eyed nostalgia for lost youth - or both. |

Yes but I suspect the narrative is less about the football and more about the character of the man and the perceived disrespect he showed the club and supporters. He nearly went to Stoke in Jan, but then signed a new - extended - contract (for more money) at Derby, and probably did a bit of chest thumping or (metaphorical) badge kissing, glad his future was sorted staying at such a great club with great supporters - platitude, lies, insincere bollocks etc. And then promptly fecked off 4 months later when Coates waved his cheque book again. Bit like the way we feel about Cotterill - he was no great shakes as a manager and no great loss - but he treated us with contempt. |

The only hissing allowed at a football match is when the ref changes the ball. That's mandatory.
Anything else is just shit.....

“If they want to bring inflatables, which I’ve heard, it’s going to be really windy.”
“So those inflatables could be in danger of blowing away, and secondly I bought shares in a very popular inflatables shop in Derby recently and I’m looking forward to raking in the profits.”

Disclaimer:- this could be a case of rose tinted spectacles or misty-eyed nostalgia for lost youth - or both. Think your line saying it was in the 80's sums the inflatable fad up. World was a different place then in all aspects. Players used to play footy to earn a living in them days & most had to work afterwards coz the rewards were nowhere near what they are today. The inflatable fad of the 80's was a monumental period & you had to be there to truely appreciate it, but it should never return. That sight of all them bananas in the Butler St and Stoke End paddock on that Boxing Day fixture v Man City was the catalyst. Who remembers the punching the air with your pink panther when each Stoke player was announced in the pre match line up?! & recall it was the done thing to place Stoke wristbands around the ankles to personalise them! The inflatable factories must of loved the unexpected boom in trade during this period. Let's let Derby fans have their inflatable moment, 30 odd years after it was fashionable(ish!).. |

If they take the lead, maybe they'll do "you're getting mauled by the rams" with synchronised hand actions. That would be equally as intimidating.

Frank Lampard scored the most painful goal I think I've endured as a Stoke fan. It wasn't the Division 2 play-offs against Gillingham or Walsall or even Toure's in the FA Cup final it was fat Franks in the last minute at Stamford Bridge in our first season. We were being really obnoxious and rather brilliant in the stands only for the fat tub of lard to score.
If anyone wants to remember what it's like to be proud even when we lose have a look at this:
