Still can't believe Derby only had 11 points on a whole season.  That is depressing as f***.

 

4 of them from us...

 

Ah yes, how could I forget.  Which fact is more depressing?

 

That tbh. Whilst Derby did have an absolute s****er that season, the record books will stay say: 1 win against Newcastle United.

And we think having players injured is bad...

 

Wednesday, September 8: Lokomotiv Yaroslavl ice hockey team had left their local airport when the plane crashed shortly after takeoff on their way to Minsk, the capital of Belarus, where they were to play their opening game of the Kontinental Hockey League season. Of the 45 on board, 37 were players, coaches and team officials.

 

Sad day. A whole team, coaches, staff, wiped out.

 

The other teams in the KHL are all supporting the idea for each team to send one player to Lokomotiv to rebuild their team to start the season.  Cool idea....not sure on how the logistics would work etc.  Maybe they'd like Alan Smith?

That's fantastic that like.

 

Reminds me of the Zambian side that lost the entire team in a crash and rebuilt the side from scratch and made it all the way to the ACN final the following year - taking the lead in the final vs Nigeria only to lose. Still stands as their best ever finish IIRC.

Twas. The only player not to be killed in the accident was Kalusha Bwalya, one of Africa's greatest ever players. With that motivation and his leadership they nearly crafted one of sport's all time tales. Unfortunately, this once great side have yet to recover. They did get back to the knockout stages of the ACN in 2010, but Vincent Enyeama and Nigeria denied them once more.

Anyone watching the John Hartson charity match?

 

Just had a look at the potential England team, looks like Ryan Naysmith is playing (Ricky Whittle).

 

Always liked Ryan Naysmith, but he was always injured :dave:

 

Fantastic on his day, decent left foot.

Any shot on target is a goal for England here like, there is no way Neville Southall can still dive. Hes even bigger than he was back in the day.

 

Did you not see him in the Match (Legends vs Celebrities) thing on Sky 1 from years ago? Saved just about everything.
