[Adebola had been similarly profligate, twice heading over from close in, before he finally found his range 12 minutes into the second half when he escaped the offside trap before prodding the ball under Lee Camp.] I thought a makeshift defence did well for 99% of the game, ... but one lapse has cost us. |
But we became bigger and stronger then, ... I expect us to be larger and stronger after this. |

He just felt his groin tighten up so it was a precautionary measure to take him off, |

I see application every time I study the Bible. And this particular study provides a good summation of the first five books of the Bible. |

I was beginning to think either my managerial career or Pride Park was cursed. |
I'm very confident we will get players in - there could be an announcement in the next 24 hours and may be another within 48 hours. |

It may look white on Christmas morning with frost on the grass but there's no chance of any snow. |
It takes us three days to get ready to deploy overseas, ... It took us only six hours to get four C-130s ready to head south. That was probably one of the busiest days we've ever had out here. But it's a challenge and we live up to our challenges. |
It was a hard game for Adam to be thrown in but he showed some nice touches. It was perhaps a little unfair on him but, hopefully, he'll have learned something from the game that he and we can benefit from in the future. |
It's a real blow losing both Craig and Rocky for we were hoping that with rest the injuries would settle down and we'd have them for the run-in. |
It's something where you can't take a risk with a player. |
