Jourdan got a reaction from Andrew3000 in Fleetwood Home Sat 18th March 3.00pm
You’re absolutely right. You have to play players in positions that they have grown comfortable in and where they have built up understanding and partnerships.
Forsyth and Cashin should be playing at centre back, Roberts or Sibley at left back and Smith at right back, not flitting from one position to another one week to the next. Similarly McGoldrick and Knight should have started or not been in the squad at all. It was a horrible miscalculation by Warne and Fleetwood punished us for our worst 45 minutes of the season.
It just puts pressure on the games v Peterborough and Ipswich really. We probably need four points now whereas before we probably could have got away with picking up just one or two.
The magic 80 looks a canyon away if we continue in the same vein as today.

We’ve had a few disappointing performances and results in Warne’s time and usually there’s a logical explanation or defence for it.
But today? I can’t defend Warne or the players.
A whole week to prepare for the game, midweek results giving us a boost, time to go on a day out to the races in an attempt to galvanise the group...and this is what is served up!
It’s so disappointing and it does raise concerns for the last nine games because we are starting to look truly vulnerable. 4-5 weeks ago, we’d have blown Fleetwood away. We are fading fast and the rotation options we have just won’t cut it. They won’t give us the second wind we need.
We got away with it once but if we try to move away from the XI who went on the unbeaten run, there’s a obvious lack of cohesion and understanding that will hamper us.
Wycombe losing is no consolation because we have given Peterborough an opening. Looking at today, those two will be smelling blood.
I still back Warne to the hilt, but he’s giving the doubters plenty of ammunition at the moment.

Jourdan reacted to GboroRam in I asked ChatGPT to write a poem about Derby County
Better than I got.
When the night is dark,
And the dogs go 'bark',
When the clouds are black,
And the ducks go 'quack',
When the sky is blue,
And the cows go 'moo',
Think of lovely Derby:
She'll be thinking of you.

Jourdan reacted to Gee SCREAMER !! in Who was the last player we spent a fee on and when?
The guitarist from Blur once said that he would have to extend interviews during the 90's when advising magazine interviewers that he didn't actually support Chelsea like the rest being a Derby fan . In the end he gave up.
Just tell him he's dead right that we've spent 10 million on agents fees, average 25k a week in wages and still have Tom Lawrence cryogenically frozen on a 10 million a year retainer till we grace the championship once more. We hope to thaw him out at Wembley in May, hopefully against Plymouth.

If he's from Plymouth I would contest this fact...

Jourdan got a reaction from SFox1993 in Playoffs
80 points is our target, so in that sense, we still have work to do. It’s in our hands, which is what is most important.
16 points from 10 games sounds simple enough but a few unfavourable results would put us under pressure once again.
I don’t think we can get too comfortable. Who would have seen Burton beating Wycombe yesterday? Or Cheltenham beating Peterborough? There are bound to be more twists and turns to come.
I am also not worried about who we get should we finish up in the play-offs. There is very little to separate the teams in the mix. We can beat anyone on our day and we can also be beaten if we have an off day or make mistakes at key times.
The question is whether we can dig down deep and find something from within to give the play-offs a really good go. I think players, fans and coaches are starting to feel the effects of a long, gruelling season.

Jourdan reacted to kevinhectoring in The Sibley Enigma
I think McGoldrick for all his talents might be a difficult guy to play alongside.
Loved Sibley’s post match interview where he told everyone AM is where he wants to play. Sure Warne was pleased to hear that
Warne on the other hand managed to make Sibleys two excellent goals about Warne: Haha I told sibbo I wish he’d scored another because if he had I’d have been manager of the month. More careless flippancy from Warne in his interviews - I wish he didn’t try so hard to be cute and quirky.

Jourdan reacted to Mr Tibbs in Tired
In the last two I don't think we've been a million miles away from 6 points, despite the evident tired legs.
Four goals from four poor/unfortunate circumstances. Fozzy playing out at the wrong time, the Rooney shove, a Barks terrible corner and then a ridiculous penalty. I think we've been our own worst enemy this week - if we can avoid that there's a realistic chance we can carry on playing the same way. We're not getting outplayed, just punished.
