I have to agree it's already looking like the home games at the Amex against Newcastle & Norwich are going to be absolutley massive games for us this season if we want to avoid yet again just missing out on an automatic place.

What am I on about, YOU MAY WELL ASK ?. Well, according to my calculations we've now only lost 7 of the last 60 Championship league games we've played since early May 2015. The first of the 60 was our 0-0 draw away at Middlesbrough. It's hard to believe that we are still in the Championship...

What worries me most of all is that the players playing for England right now probably believe there all fairly good players as they mostly all play for Premiership teams. Sadly their all extremely average, & even worse I can't ever see that improving as things are within English football right...

Yes to date 17 reviews on Owlstalk Forum Fans in praise of Lewis Dunk. They all think Lewis is far & away the best C/B in the Championship, some even say that Lewis Dunk & Anthony Knockaert both belong in the Prem not the Championship. England could do a lot worse than giving Lewis a try, the...

If you ask me Chris Martin is one of the reasons their in the mess they are right now. As good as they've been in recent seasons everything regarding Derby's attacking options were all built around him. All their eggs in one basket so to speak, no Plan B. Once his form disappeared & now he's...

I tend to agree there's clearly something inherently wrong within Derby County as a Club right now, not sure exactly what that is, I'm not even sure they know. But it's certainly not just Pearson or the players. The Club seems to be making one bad decision after another these days, especially...

Yes one of the special Moments in Albion history was the 35th minute universal standing ovation from the fans for the sublime skills of Anthony Knockeart yesterday. The mans a genius with the ball at his feet. God knows how many men Barnsley put on him yesterday but not one of them could get the...

Don't really care where he's chosen to go today. All I know is that we are dam lucky to have him as our manager.

After the surprise results in the Championship already this season, we really need to take the opportunity before the arrival of the International break to put some distance between ourselves & the big spending teams. Because they surely won't be this poor all season long.

Chris Hughton now fourth longest serving manager in The Championship after only 19 months in the job. CRAZY OR WHAT

Hands off Newcastle, he ain't for sale. Makes the £2.6 Million we paid for him last January a shroud deal though

Turn it off, I can't watch that. We were just not at the races tonight. Did we have a chance ?. Best forgotten that game & quickly.

A team missing out on automatic promotion in the Championship when finishing with 89 points having lost only 5 games all season of the 46 League games played ?. 5000/1 perhaps, I wonder ?. :sick:

When I see our finish to last season yet again I'm still finding really hard to believe that we actually missed out on going up. What I wouldn't give for table above to look the same for our last 18 games next season, but sadly that may be wishful thinking off course.

I will be watching it, praying that Hull win. I just can't get my head round Sheffield Wednesday winning when they finished the season 15 points behind us, that's 5 wins we had more than them for gods sake. Then they rested their entire squad why'll we battled with Boro in the last game of the...
