3 Points, 2 Games, 1 Scudetto
By Johonna | May 4th, 2008Alright. That was pretty horrible. Yikes, now we know how Milan has been feeling for the last few Derbies - not good. Still, it is not the end of the world. True, mistakes were made, but we can and will go on to win the Scudetto and the Coppa Itali ...
Allora Ragazzi, It is DERBY TIME!
By Johonna | May 4th, 2008First, let me say hello to everyone out there. Robert is MIA so I am going to write until he comes back. When that happens, hopefully we can share. Second, I know this is very, VERY late, but I had a busy day and just now checked my email to find ...
Victory!!!!!!!!!!! Galatasaray 1-0 Fenerbahce, the CimBom tears apart the canaries.
By Musab | April 27th, 2008It was an amazing match. The house was packed with CimBomlu and Fenerli fans. People had to sit on the floor to get a decent view. And the Lions did not disappoint. Lincoln was injured at the last possible moment of the training last night and thus m ...
DCFC: Loan Watch
By Martin | April 23rd, 2008For 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) ...
Countdown to the Great Derby-Galatasaray v.s Fenerbahce
By Musab | April 22nd, 2008This Sunday, the whole of Turkey will be fixed on one match. The great Istanbul derby between Galatasaray and Fenerbahce. What makes this seasons derby so important is that both teams are tied at the same amount of points with Fenerbahce holding a +1 ...
We're Skint, Guv. Honest...
By Martin | April 16th, 2008Paul 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 randso ...
Galatasaray 1-0 Trabzonspor, The Tide is finally turning in our favor as the Cimbom win the derby
By Musab | April 13th, 2008The third derby for Galatasaray was played out in a packed Ali Sami Yen stadium filled with fanatical Galatasarayli fans. Trabzonpor has always been a "secondary" derby for us, seconday because we almost always beat them whether the match is in Istan ...
Pre-Villa Prayers...
By Martin | April 11th, 20085 Months ago Aston Villa beat Derby 2-0, and I left the ground thinking I wouldn't be so worried if it wasn't for the fact we never mustered a shot on goal the entire game. (We) Derby fans sang "The Premier League is upside down" because we knew our ...

Chi Non Salta E' Catanese!
By lorenzo | April 9th, 2008Steven will be posting a preview for this weekend's upcoming derby in the near future. In the mean time, I thought it'd be nice to get ourselves a little more "emotionally" prepared for the match ahead against the ugly cousins from across the island. ...
After The Everton...
By Martin | April 7th, 2008Everton 1 - 0 Derby .... We had a go, and lost - can't ask for much more than that (except maybe 2 goals and 3 points, but you've got to start somewhere). Although you can see Jewell's style of football is starting to take shape, we'll have ano ...
Everton 1 - 0 Derby
By Martin | April 6th, 2008It might be another defeat but Derby played with some real skill and determination, passing the ball around with some confidence - with Hossam Ghaly a class act - easily man of the match. The goal typically came from a aircraft-hanger sized gap in t ...

By mdc | April 4th, 2008To post here before a game is now something of a pre-match ritual. Hopefully next season I'll be writing something more positive but for now, here goes... Alan Stubbs is hoping to return against his old club but Jewell says it's doubtful due to a ...

Fulham Podcast #2
By timmyg | April 1st, 2008HatterDon from FulhamUSA calls in as we discuss the Derby Debacle. (and sorry about the lack of initial bumper music -- some problem with recording. so just queue up "Ring of Fire" and play for like 20 seconds before listening.) Fulham Offside ...
Livorno 0-0 Siena, Disorganised Derby Diary
By Marco | March 31st, 2008Livorno manages to stay above water for another 7 days. Kudos to Giancarlo Camolese for sending out the 3-4-1-2 out there but the trident attack didn’t produce a single goal. Francesco Tavano started to show us some glimpses of his Valencia ...

Another Dour Day
By timmyg | March 29th, 2008In the podcast I mentioned how I had a bad feeling about this match. But for sixty or so seconds, I had hope. Hope that the march up the table would commence in earnest and the (embarrassing) road form would finally end. Sadly, neither was to b ...

2 days 'till Merda
By salvatore | March 17th, 2008I had intended on writing a lot more today, but I'm currently sick with flu (and writing this in bed, pathetically using my laptop's heat for warmth), so what can you do? I'm taking all this as a bad sign for Wednesday, especially since Radu mig

Playing For Pride
By mdc | March 13th, 2008Hands up who thought David Jones’ goal at Stamford Bridge was the start of a massive revival? Anyone…? Anyone…? Well I think last night’s result summed up our season. Most Derby fans would agree that games against Chelsea and Manchester United (
Derby: Your Team's Favorite Team
By Jack | March 13th, 2008Indeed. If you're keen on erasing a poor result, dismissing crisis talk or just scoring a few dozen goals to boost your self-esteem, then Derby is your team. Chelsea put on an electric show at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday, shipping six past Roy Carrol
