    Meant I could have a drink in the Dove for a change .

    They were all raving about Iseka, how quick he was to get in behind etc. They were a teeny bit jealous.

    Had a quick look on their forum and they seemed to rate the Dove too.
    Before the match I was chatting to some Derby fans in the courthouse carpark ( they were well impressed with it being free to park!) and they were confident they would win. Didn't get their opinions after the match!

    Always good to get an opposition or neutral perspective.

    A Rotherham fan at work was waxing lyrical about Styles this morning.

    I was in the Dove too. My fortnightly entertainment watching the staff collectively work out how to use the till. At every transaction.

    Still miss Geoff. He would have had a few choice words for the current situation.

    Not many, but certainly ‘choice’!

    They were around just after Prem season. I’d say it’s just over 20 years since.
