    One of the other main points of playing someone with nothing to play for is that fact they relax with the pressure off and generally seem to play better.

    I would highly recommend Rooney employs a proctologist to investigate his backlog

    Of course it could be our downfall. Could also work in our favour. The reality is that it will be a struggle.

    But the biggest motivator is survival. Hungry dogs run faster.

    The American Investment Co, which made loans (twice) to Derby, the last to pay the wages 3 months ago, have thrown a spanner in the works of the takeover. They want their £17M back before it goes thro. Sounds like they don't trust someone.............lol.
