All I want to see is a team playing with desire, passion and aggression, consistently over the season. Clear evidence of a team that is united, a team that works hard for each other and win and lose as a unit. 

Do that and the league position will take care of itself.

I'd take a 10th upwards finish whilst we actually go through a "transition" period. Clean slate and more than half a season to make the necessary changes, please. 

Maybe his ex-rams portfolio will buy him some extra time and leeway too but I imagine the same old culprits will be hounding him out when were not top by Christmas. We'll be boo'ing long before that at Pride Park.

Expectations are going to be high,otherwise why bother sacking recent managers who (except Pearce) were keeping the club top half of the table or better.

Continued investmnent throughout the club and MM public desire to get us up creates expectations from the fans,myself included. Where as A few seasons ago competing for play offs ,would have provided myself with some content and feel good factor, unfortunately anything less than playoffs,entertaining football,stuffing florist and breaking transfer deals is just an anticlimax

I've gone 7-10th. We want Derby to be playing good football, making continual progress and looking like contenders.

Although I'll be having a few quid on Derby going up automatically because i think Rowett is a great choice and i reckon we'll fly.

8 Games left to assess the squad, summer transfer window to wheel and deal, if he can survive until May 2018 what are your expectations?

My expectation was you wouldn't copy a thread i started a week ago.

Top 6 - just look at what he did at Brum

One could have said at the end of last season - Top 6 - just look at what he (NP) did at Leicester.

You can only expect one thing in football - disappointment.

Without any hyperbole we are a leading club in this division. To expect promotion considering the recent history is however  a bit optimistic or smacks of entitlement, but it is absolutely right that we should expect to be challenging for promotion so top six for me.

I want to see a well organised team who all give 100% in each game, i.e leave nothing on the pitch as the old cliche goes.

I don't want any sulking, shoulder shrugging or eye rolling.

I don't want any goals conceded in the last minute of injury time.

There will be a couple of poor teams coming down from the Prem, so we should be well placed for promotion.

7th to 10th is minimum expectation with evidence of improvement and building blocks for promotion push following season. Promotion next season is maximum expectation. 

Really hope Mel gives Rowett a fair chance, if he sacks him the minute we have a bad run, I will be voting with my feet and not renewing for 18/19.
