Re: What is it like being a Derbyshire fan?

If there wasn't a threat of eternal damnation or lasting damage - I think I'd probably let myself be violated by Satan.

Tim O'Gorman used to play for Derbyshire.

by JKLever Mon 10 Sep 2007, 22:14

Blast from the past.

I take your Tim O'Gorman and trump it with a Steve Goldsmith

Ben Spendlove. England sub fielder and Next Big Thing c. 1996.

Tim Tweats?

They're lucky to have FC status.

One good thing about Worcs being relegated is that we get to win at least two games next season - 4 if you include Glamorgan.

Floods permitting.

When have you ever heard Derby County FC referred to as Derbyshire?

by Guest Mon 10 Sep 2007, 23:35

Hang on...is there a clue there?

Fools. What's all this "Kolpak central" bull?

Please name all of our Kolpak players.

As far as I know, Greg Smith is the only Kolpaker playing for Derbyshire this season.

Anyway, we've won 3, lost 5 and drawn 7 this season. That's a decent-ish record.

And Derbyshire is the most beautiful county in England.

PMSL, that sounds a bit like 'I know you're right but by the way my gardens nice' Laughing

Don't dodge the question.

by JKLever Tue 11 Sep 2007, 00:51

Dighton,Birt,Katich,Hassan Adnan,Greg Smith

None of those are eligible to play for England

by LeFromage Tue 11 Sep 2007, 00:52

Gary Ballance - as was established earlier...

Derbyshire and Derby County supporter.

Thats got to hurt?

Lots of beautiful countryside around, though, to watch whilst you slash your wrists...

Aye.

Actually Derbyshire is lovely. Derby itself is a dump though.

Dighton, Bity, Katich and Adnan aren't Kolpakers. That leaves...., oh yes, Greg Smith.

Get lost, Gary Ballance. He's about 17 and frankly, nowhere near the first team.

In the first team squad, playing county cricket this season, Derbyshire have 1 Kolpak player.

by JKLever Tue 11 Sep 2007, 01:04

Kolpakers, Dodgy Passport holders.

All the same. None are eligible for England

by Lara Lara Laughs Tue 11 Sep 2007, 01:14

All the same my bumhole. Have fun down in that hole you've dug for yourself. hello

Using the festive wave smiley doesn't make you right LLL!

by Lara Lara Laughs Tue 11 Sep 2007, 01:19

It's appropriate. It's looking down at you in your pit, watching you grovel and cheerily waving as you beg to be let out.

by JKLever Tue 11 Sep 2007, 01:22

Surely a Derby fan spends the whole of his life looking up not down? Wink
