I took the TB to Chester for the games against Wrexham and Bradford City. Unfortunately my official photographer (snapperman) has deleted the photo he took. However I feel I should point out that the curse of Derby County oozed from this TB and Chester contrived to lose all four games without scoring a goal. Rather than take it to yesterdays game against Darlington for another photo I decided to leave it at home and as if by magic the curse was lifted and Chester won 2-1. Naturally I will be getting rid of this TB as soon as possible.
