DERBY COUNTY NEW YEARS ALMANAC 2008


Take a glimpse into the future with our new year almanac. Note this was written before the Howard deal and
 even our mystic meg didn't see that one coming!.

 

Rams Stay in the Premiership 

Pompey’s African contingent refuse to return to the British winter and Portsmouth subsequently fail to win another point; Thankshin Shinawarta convicted of embezzlement and murder, Man city’s points and players repossessed under “proceeds of Criminal Activity” law (despite Shinawarta’s plea bargaining to end drug crime in Moss Side overnight). The Rams win a battle with Sunderland and Fulham to stay up.

 

 

“Yes Tony, if you have no hands,
you cannot be selling the drugs”


Robert Earnshaw joins the Q-League
 

Earnie is transferred to the newly formed Q-League in Qatar. Reports suggest he will take a pay cut but will be better off due to the saving in fuel costs on his Hummer 


“Pump number 5, full tank. Have you got
change for a  fiver mate?” 


Pride Park becomes the 51st state 

With KFC, McDonalds, Pizza Hut, Frankie and Benny’s, Starbucks and now the club itself in American ownership; Pride Park is disowned from the EU. Ticket prices fall due to weakness of the dollar. Games now played in four quarters.

 


Kenny Miller models the new kit.
 

Billy Davies becomes Scotland manager 

The 2010 World Cup qualifiers begin well as Scotland sneak narrow victories against Macedonia and Iceland. However, constantly swapping wingers fails to trouble Holland and the Scots are routed 5-0.

“Let’s go 3-5-2…right now  2-4-4…shit who’s
marking Dirk Kuyt”

 

Jewell admits Windass interest 

After playing for Jewell at Bradford and trying to sign him for Wigan, Paul Jewell admits he is an admirer of Hull’s 38 year old striker Dean Windass. Windass signs for Sunderland for £3.5m two days later.

”Andy, Dwight and Dean have scored hundreds
of goals between them…some of them
were even this decade”


J-TV is launched 

The Rams media friendly full-back Jay McEveley decides to launch his own cable TV channel. Jay’s opinions on anything and everything can now be accessed 24 hours a day.


 

“This is Jay McEveley, reporting live for J-TV”
