Watching this game you can see why so many of the PL promoted sides come down immediately.
I hope we don’t get them early season. They are getting obsessed with us again. Need to play them when they’ve had the stuffing knocked out of them! And then put them in their place!
It's a fair bet it will be the Friday night opener to the season (unless the old bill step in). A bit like when Arse were sent like lambs to the slaughter at Brentford a couple of years back.

That will be a Sunday midday job next season - they’ll be frothing at the mouth to play us again, a whole generation will have not witnessed the weirdest ever one way rivalry….fatty Quinn will be rolled out by the media, the poster bloke who is probably 80 yrs old now will get his quill and parchment out to update his message

Cov back in front 3 2, deservedly so as the Derby pen was a terrible decision.

That was the type of call VAR would be for - correct the ref who just missed keepers fingertips on ball

Has anyone tracked down the "We'll be back" bellend yet? I look forward to reviving "you'll never beat the Villa" regardless.

Yes, a girl from the BBC I went on a date with recently who supports them, was wondering whether getting him on one of her radio programmes as a guest was too Cov-centric and not relevant enough to Maggie and Michael of Tunbridge Wells. I told her to leave him be on local radio at best.

The day after we relegated them The Observer – then a broadsheet, had a full page photo of the back of Juan Pablo in front of The Holte, arms aloft, surname across his shirt and facing the crowd. The headline was “Angel of Death”

Lots more interested in how the date went rather than some jealous guy.

Whilst I’m always happy with the narrative we relegated them.  They would’ve gone down anyway as derby somehow got a result at Manure.

It’s interesting watching a game without giving the tiniest fuck who wins.

Could have done with Liverpool winning for us, they need to be involved in as many games as possible, sadly now it looks almost certain that is not gonna hapen.
