It's behind a paywall, and at the bottom of this article, http://www.thetimes.co.uk/tto/sport/football/article3763094.ece It reads:

Not sure TBH - that 125 logo where the ball should be looks like it comes from Comic Relief on first sight. Maybe it'll grow on me!

Not convinced it's nicked from Chelsea - the original song is the 'Red Flag'!

It seems to be growing on me, though I initially felt violated looking at it. It's still just a little too busy, and I think the shiny blue fabric is unnecessary. Anyone got a picture of the back btw?

It's not the greatest song ever, but the line "I get knocked down, but I get up again" makes me thing Tubthumping by Chumbawumba might be suitable next season.

That's what I was intending to do as well - the club seem to have ballsed this right up

I agree, but the Football League have already set the precedent by NOT deducting points from Derby County when their holding company went into administration. Correct me if I'm wrong, but on the basis that the rules have not been changed between then and now, the League are in no real position to deduct points, as the legal precedent has been set (as it happens, that's the least of my worries at this point in time)

If only Surman had put that one in... oh well, probably should have been worse, and there are several teams who were a long way ahead a few weeks ago now looking over their shoulders. It's gonna be a tight one again!

I'm tempted to boycott after talking to a mutual friend of myself and Mr Crouch earlier today. I was told that Leon offered to put £2m into the club to clear debts, provided that Lowe and Wilde did the same, pro rata, with new shares being issued to all. Wilde refused on the spot, and Lowe refused to talk to him. As with anything from that part of the world, I take this with a pinch of salt, but if it comes close to being true...

'String of impressive displays in the Championship'? TBH, he's looked pretty ordinary in most games to me; and if it brings in some cash AND forces the manager to pick Wooton, then so much the better!

Oh no - I think it was far more bizarre than anything Burley ever did (at least it felt like he had a plan!) Anyway, the midfield today was appalling - half the time too deep, the other half far too far forward.

I didn't think it was Jan's fault (too much!) until today, but no competent manager would have made the kind of substitutions at 1-0 which so utterly destroyed our shape today. Hope he does the decent thing and falls on his sword, 'cos I can't see Lowe sacking him! Dowie or Curbishley in, or we're completely f*cked.

We've been due a bit of luck methinks. Not sure how donny rovers are going to come out next week though, not having played today and all!

I hope not - Donny Rovers and Blackpool have both had games called off, so this is a good chance to close the gap (especially on 'Pool - they're in trouble now Grayson's left!)

That would be the ideal, but I'd rather Crouch was in charge than Lowe

Just watching the Championship, and they say this is our worst home league start since joining the football league! Still, could be a Charlton fan!

It's not just money. Hoffenheim play a completely different style of football to anyone else in the Bundesliga - no patient build-up play, just all out attack, and the other teams have no idea how to deal with it.

Can't see any players leaving before January 3rd then!

Really?

How can the FA expect anyone to respect referees when they are unwilling to hold them to any standards? This is an utter joke

I doubt this - Lowe and Wilde are likely joined only by a mutual hatred of Crouch! As for the way forward, I maintain a rights issue is the best option - we're a listed company, why don't we use the stock market to our advantage for the first time? (Yes, I know the obvious answer is that it will dilute the shareholdings of the three wise men, which is unacceptable to any of them!)

We lost, but not by quite so many as I expected (3-1 was my pre-game prediction) and I thought that the second half was the best I have seen us play all season. It gives me some hope, but we desperately need a proper striker, especially with Euell suspended

Unfortunately not, that was Sheff U. at home. I admit though, it would have been hilarious if Derby's first win in a year came because the opposition threw the match!

That's a bit of a stretch Still, as much as I'm unconvinced by the team, we don't need to lose another manager, the merry go round is a huge part of why we are a team in Div 2's relegation zone who are losing to a team just outside Div 4's

Play them off the park, but win 1-0 because we don't have a striker in form
