In summary, Arsenal were class… Derby had a go… and I got to see 8 goals.

* And did a dance… (see pic)
* Roy Carroll saved [...]
Pre Arsenal Prayers…

Despite what you might think, it’s not often I have gone into a game thinking “I don’t think we’ll get anything from this game” but this might be one of those times.
My only hope is that we at least give a good performance in front of the Arsenal fans, which includes my uncle and cousin [...]
It’s Chris Hutchings…

Who knew! The partnership which has already managed three promotions (two to the Premier League) is back.
Paul Jewell said, “Chris is a football man through and through and he lives to be on the training ground. He understands footballers and what makes them tick, he’s a people person, and tactically there are few better [...]

The happiest man in football has moved on… To be fair, if I was on the management team at Derby I wouldn’t smile a lot at the moment either but it took me a while to find a photo of Stan looking this ‘ecstactic’.
Ternent is set to take over as manager of Huddersfield town with [...]

For any other football club, this would contain about 3 players but since well, yknow… we’ve had a fair few on loan; this turned into war and peace. Here’s the week that was, just about in time for the weekend:
Stephen Pearson (Stoke City Loan): Was dropped to the bench but played the last 10 [...]

… Apart from a really good excuse to use this picture - Robert Earnshaw has started just 6 Premier League games and been used as a substitue a further 15 times this season.
In a team who could really use a serial-goal scorer, there must be a good reason for Earnie’s constant omission - two [...]
West Ham 2-1 Derby
By: MoonPig | 2 Comments
Although you’d be forgiven for thinking ’same old story’, the performance (particularly in the 2nd half) was quite impressive and we looked competative and even the famously un-forgiving national press said so, so it must be true!
At times there are really good signs of improvement and the style of football we’ll be playing next [...]
Pre West Ham Prayers…

Well, not much to say different to the last 20′odd Premier League games, but here’s the team news:
(Picture: “Behind you, Stephen…”)
* Mile Sterjovski and Marc Edworthy have resumed training after ankle and rib injuries respectively. Both likely to return to the 16-man squad, Sterjovski most likely to start.
* Tyrone Mears wants to go back [...]
Zadkovich Signs…

The revolution continues! Paul Jewell completed another signing this morning, Australian international utility player Ruben Zadkovich .
Jewell said: “Ruben impressed us enormously in training. A number of clubs have been interested in him and we wanted to make sure we didn’t miss out on a fantastic talent.”
It looks like fellow aussie Mile Sterjovski might [...]

Paul Jewell has said that Derby County (specifically “the previous regieme”) have already spent next seasons parachute payments (expected to be £11m) for next season. I’m half hoping that this is a smoke-screen so that clubs don’t hold us to randsome for transfer fees but I’m not so sure…
