Is George Thorne currently featuring for them, or is he having one of his eighteen-month injury jollies? I'm sure he'll enjoy the occasion if he's fit.

George Thorne hasn't featured at all for Direby in November so my guess is he's yet again injured.
Derby fans thought he was going to be their saviour if I remember rightly but he was, like Sicknote, very injury prone.

Don't laugh; against us, he's nailed on to save five penalties and score a hat-trick Sad

It's a safe bet this wont happen ^^^^
However if it does i'll post a picture of me on here naked Whistle

Meanwhile last night my daughter was playing the steel drums last night at Hednesford Football club on behalf of St Peter's school, christmas carols etc....
When they announced they had a mystery speaker to talk about professionalism in football over Xmas.
To my delight the Great Cyrille Regis walked in #GOBSMACKED !!!!!

Afterwards to my amazement after talking to a lot of people he still had time for a chat with me and said one of his favorite xmas games was a Boxing day Fixture against the Vile.
A game i witnessed in blizzard conditions, when he relived his Joy at himself and Garry Thompson scoring three times in the last five minutes to beat them 3-1 Thumb up

Even then he had time to sign his signature and have a picture with me. Rolleyes

My daughter even got on in the act when they asked for a member of her school to join Cyrille, Santa and members of Hednesford Football club to pose for a snap that will appear in the Cannock Chronicle this Thursday .........
What a smashing bloke ....
Thanks Cyrille you just made my xmas Blush
