It’s looking like Brough are going to lose out with Bamford Gestede on as subs and Assombolonga yet to get a shot on target with 10 mins left .. or am I tempting fate!
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.
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!!

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.![]()
