End of debate? Optimistic Den.


I'm throwing Kingston Upon Hull's world famous battered herb and potato roundels into the mix as a name, on the grounds that it's a longer, more descriptive moniker, which gives a clear indication of location, tradition and content, whilst still being manageable to say whilst placing an order.


Eg: Can I have two Kingston Upon Hull's world famous battered herb and potato roundels, a bag of chips and a curry sauce please?

Open.



Might struggle to break the Asian market mind, with that name.
Roundel?

Scoundrel !
 
Kick it off, throw it in, have a little scrimmage,
Keep it low, a splendid rush, bravo, win or die;
On the ball, City, never mind the danger,
Steady on, now's your chance,
Hurrah! We've scored a goal.
City!, City!, City!


What an inspirational song that is. Amazing it hasn't caught on outside Norwich

Need a more snazzy name, Kingston upon Hull world famous 'BHAPR'?
 
Did anyone else notice Bowen completely fanny out of that challenge that directly led to their first goal? Ball was his to win right in front of him, he stepped out the way of their rushing defender and just flicked a foot at it instead.
Yes I did and I thought he looked strangely half hearted the full time he was on the pitch.
 
See I didn't think we where that bad yesterday. I like to think I am rarely optimistic and try and remain neutral but for the first 30 minutes we where the better team. We create dquite a few openings, Grosicki was excellent, Kingsley often overlapping and creating uncertainty in their back line. We pressed Huddlestone and a few of their midfielders. Then we tired very quickly, we needed a change after 50 minutes but Adkins has got barely anything wrong for months so I don't think you can blame this on him.

Second half we barely laid a finger on them but I thought their first goal was offside and they didn't create anything before that and that could change a game.

Derby did deserve to win not going to dispute that at all, just didn't feel like we played that bad. We seemed to give up after the second which was disappointing.

However, chanting "We are staying up" was a nice little addition at the end.
 
With the way things are panning out at Chelsea, 'Frank Lampard's Derby County' will shortly be reverting to plain old simple Derby County.
I see that the Chelsea manager stormed off at Man City and refused to shake Pep's hand, not sure what was going on there, but writing is on the wall for him.
