I’m Pete, I work in IT, I live in Sussex… pre-2006 neither of these were true! I’m a Derby County fan! I love my family!
Favourite put down for mansplaining… a colleague explaining an issue, a junior colleague joined in and took over before the senior colleague looked over said “well done, you’ve nailed the basics… I wrote a more advanced paper on this, I’ll pop over a copy and you can at least regurgitate that…”

I found out today a guy further down the road from me is Barrie Luhrman… this has amused me a lot more than it should do… I’m tempted to deliver it, just so I can call him Baz… #suncream

100% I’m with Sheffield Wednesday fans! Let’s hope a buyer is found and Wednesday can keep going! Rivalries are one thing, disappearing clubs due to terrible management is entirely another #dcfcfans #atonewithwednesday
Breaking news.
Sheffield Wednesday file for administration.
One man can hold a club, its dreams and its city to ransom.
My thoughts are with those fans and half the people of Sheffield.
We know as Derby fans what you’re going through.

Not being a driving snob, but is driving manual really that tricky? You learn the basics, you learn car craft, you learn the manoeuvres? Maybe driving tests need to be modular and you have to pass each module before you can take the test?

I drink coffee and fix Lego… 2 kids, 2 Lego sets, 1 standby Lego consultant ready to point in the right direction! This is the Saturday morning my week has been screaming for.

100% this… Covid showed us the love fans have for their club, and its ability to get people out of their house, and part of a community shouldn’t be underestimated! I once debated a job at DCFC during the Mel years and I’m glad I didn’t go for it! The EFL needs change now!

One man should not be able to hold a club and a city to ransom. There are thousands of jobs/livelihoods in danger. Things have to change. Football regulation is a mess and the EFL are not fit for purpose.

I can’t be the only 1 who is fed up with the mocking nicknames the different political divides come up with? Sure it’s funny the 1st time, but when politicians start to parrot it during Parliament time surely enough is enough? Stick with the mockingly enough “right honourable person”

Oh no… those pesky left leaning labour sell outs are making it easier to travel through Europe… students can again study in Europe and British business can compete for military contracts… gosh darn it, they’re wrecking these brexit gains…

Did Carragher really say Trent isn’t “one of us” because he’s leaving Liverpool… to… go to Spain? Doesn’t #YNWA mean anything to these people? Plus Surely it’s also the most Scouse thing ever?

I think a Derby relegation would have been a lot more heart breaking this time around! It hurt enough last time! But it’s what the EFL needed and they wouldn’t stop until they got it… in Eustace we trust! Roll on the summer of building!

Rob Green calling out teams for making mistakes?? Your entire international career was a mistake! I’m sure you were a grant keeper in the Championship, but number 1 for England? Shouldn’t have happened!

Maybe… if America is about to plunge the world into recession… ALL the world’s governments need a final vote into which idiot runs them… like when schools have a student vote the teachers all vet who is in the final 2! Least then someone sensible would be in power! #trump

If Musk/Trumps entire Ukraine/Russia policy is based on Musk wanting rare earth minerals for cheaper due to Chinas dominance in the EV market… I’ve got an idea… why not pursue hydrogen cars instead?
