Ted Maul Posted 28 February 2017 Posted 28 February 2017 Groundhog day up at Derby. Great run of form, play offs nailed on?

Koke Posted 28 February 2017 Posted 28 February 2017 Hadn't realised how close to the drop Wolves are. And Birmingham are in a free fall. Luckily Rowett have accumulated enough points before he got the boot, otherwise they'd be right in it.
Kitchandro Posted 28 February 2017 Posted 28 February 2017 Dean Saunders with another classic trying to justify that Villa are a bigger club than Spurs, Chelsea and Everton. OK THEN DEAN.
The Bear Posted 28 February 2017 Posted 28 February 2017 Derby's form in February - W0 D2 L4 As for us, well we could easily be in the bottom 3 by Saturday night given the fixtures:Reading v Wolves Bristol City v BurtonBlackburn v WiganWe've got two games in hand but they're against Huddersfield (H) and Brentford (A). Can't see much out of those either. Lambert has us playing absolute garbage lately. Tactics are hoofing it up to a tiny striker or give it to Costa and hope he does something with it. We just can't score goals at the minute. Our Cup run masked how rubbish we've been lately.

OK THEN DEAN.Saunders is one of the biggest spanners in football who still somehow keeps getting media work even though he talks utter drivel. His spell as Wolves manager was one of the worst pieces of management I've ever seen. And he took us down to League 1.

He did well at Oldham, ok at Barnsley (I used to work with a few Barnsley fans and they hated him for leaving) and he seemed to start decent at Bristol City but just tail off. Be great to see City and Rovers in the same league.
Ted Maul Posted 1 March 2017 Posted 1 March 2017 Bristol City have always been one of those clubs which I hate, despite having no reason to whatsoever. Rovers are the opposite, always liked them for some reason.

Guest FriendlyRam Posted 1 March 2017 Posted 1 March 2017 Don't worry Wolves, Forest etc We'll happily level it up by giving you points as well We've been shocking since Xmas, nothing can explain that dross last night, still trying to shoehorn players into a system that really isn't suitable for the players we have now. Nugent and Vydra really can't play the role we need in a 433, and Bent despite his goals can't do it either. Until we get someone with a brain to realise this we're going nowhere. Pearson started the process of changing it and was sacked 10 games into it

OK THEN DEAN. I think Villa are bigger than Spurs. Chelsea are massive in this era. They're on course to win their 5th league title in just over a decade.

They're on course to win their 5th league title in just over a decade. I would have had them as bigger than both Spurs and Everton before they got relegated. They've been on the slide for years though, and not being in the Premier League takes away a huge amount of stature.
Miquel The Work Geordie Posted 1 March 2017 Posted 1 March 2017 Villa are not in the same bracket as Spurs, I don't see how this is a discussion
Lovejoy Posted 3 March 2017 Posted 3 March 2017 I know everyone has their own take on what defines a "big club", but for me the debate is simple. If Spurs and Villa went in for a player, where would the player most likely end up? Imo, that answers who is the biggest club. It is all relevant to time, Forest used to be a big club apparently .

Yep. This "big club" way of ordering the teams is nonsense. Who cares if a club won a lot 30 years ago? Means absolutely **** all. Take Villa for example. Like to parade the idea that they're a big club. Fact of the matter is that Bournemouth are light years ahead of them.
