The Days Other Games (Season 2017 - 2018)

[oldcolner]

Derby again fail to have a chance of getting promoted with a 2-0 loss at Fulham after going into the tie 1-0 up, you'll need to have a word Rammy, or support Burnley

Oh dear that’s Nugent missed out but Kevin MacDonald in with a chance of coming back to the Turf!
If they don’t make i how about Sessegnon he’s £22.5m on Transfermarkt so maybe not!!

Villa v Fulham it is then.
I wonder how much money Derby and Brough have gambled and lost?

Answering one question Brough made a £6m profit last year after spending £31m to get promoted.
Away from the headline figures in the accounts is the note that the club - controlled by Gibson via his 75% stake in the Gibson O’Neill Company who also own Bulkhaul and Rockliffe Hall - owe £93.6m to the wider group undertakings. The loan won’t be called in during the next 12 months.
They splashed out this year to try to repeat the push with Pulis, Bamford, Assombolonga I guess they’ll be owing a lot more now.

[oldcolner]

And the other
Derby accounts show a loss of £7m last year and £14m the year before, however the parent company SEVCO5112 also owned 100% by W Morris was set up in Sept 2015 and lost £36m in 2015-6 and £21m in then months to June 2017 so that’s a loss of around £2.5m a month.
Mr Morris’s dream of having a mid table PL side is certainly costing him

League One 2nd leg Semi:

Rotherham v Scunny (agg 2-2)

[Altobelli]

Rotherham 2 Scunny 0 (agg 4-2)

[Supersub6]

That makes an interesting final with Shrewsbury v Rotherham. It is amazing the amount of connections with Rotherham that there were with S****horpe and also Shrewsbury.
I would love to see Shrewsbury promoted because I go there for the Inter-Services games between the Royal Air Force and either the Army or Royal Navy and they always look after you really well. They have a really nice set up and a smashing pitch and the Inter Services game is topped off by the Royal Air Force landing a helicpoter in the centre circle in order to deliver the match ball.
Come on you Shrews!!

[Altobelli]

Thursday, League Two play off semi-final 2nd leg, Exeter 3 Lincoln 1 (agg 3-1)

[The Bedlington Terrier]

Once went to Exeter on the coach with Accy Clarets, set off at 06.00, got to Exeter at 13.45 for a 15.00 kick-off and the game had been postponed!

Had a pee against the coach back wheel and came back home.
