The Running Man

I get that some fans don't rate Collins but when the guy scores a hatrick and still gets stick then it's pathetic.

Having sat and watched the League One leaders lose at Chesterfield, fielding their strongest team, but Chesterfield deservedly winning, I did wonder what Derby’s match at Crewe had in store.
Warne, I think rightly, did not change a winning team, many on here seem to urge that. Derby battered the Crewe penalty area constantly for most of the first half. Crewe often had 8/9 men in their penalty area at times, which was very congested. We did try a variety of methods to score, playing passes to try and break through the lines, to no avail. We then resorted to mainly cross the ball, usually failing to hit a Derby player. If there was a diffence from Tuesday night it was a lack of movement from the front players, to try and create space. Unfortunately, Fonzie had an off day with his passing, sometimes because of lack of movement in front of him, and the falling asleep for their first goal.
in the second half, we were still dominant in possession but particularly Hourihane slowed the game too much, in my opinion, maybe trying to look confident that we would get back in game. The 2nd game was again poor defending from both Bradley and Nelson. That led to Crewe packing their Area with even more men, had some luck but also were let off by some poor score scoring efforts.
The subs did have an effect, freshening things up and eventually Derby scored the goals which gave them what they deserved. Well done for continuing to believe. Contrary to what some think, there is good spirit and they are playing for the Head Coach. As someone else said, Hourihane up his game tempo and was very important in the revival. Derby tried to play along the ground as much as possible, but trying to play through the centre of the defence was virtually impossible. Our standard of crossing improved a bit with Ward and to a lesser extent Wilson. Think Ward will be very important when he becomes match fit.
some of the comments on here during the match were embarrassingl and laughable. Special mention too to Crewe, who made it extremely difficult with their determination and hard work. Having watched the match against Northampton, their Manager wasn’t going to give Derby the amount of space they enjoyed on Tuesday.
Apart from a couple of pieces of defending and our finishing, it was a reasonable performance and no where near as bad as the Warne Out people are portraying. It was Crewe’s Cup Final - Chesterfield won theirs quite convincingly against Portsmouth!

Nice fight back! Bring on the replay, could be a cracking game I hope. Several giant killing results, the joy of the cup!

The "Paul Warne you football is s**t" club are getting on my t*ts a bit now. 
 
In that past it has been poor. He (we!) seems to have adapted. The last couple (and arguably some before) have been entertaining possession based creating a lot of chances. They didn't pay off in numbers today like they did against Northampton, Crewe defended (well at times) against a lot of pressure and nicked 2 relatively lucky goals.
Pleased to have another crack at them. I'll be there.

It should also be said that Collins looked level at worst for his disallowed goal and NML should have buried that header at 0-1, so although we were sloppy at both ends at times, IMO we deserved at least a draw.

There were definitely players he could have bought, I’ve been told he turned down the chance to sign Alfie May because he wasn’t up to his “character” standards. He’s scored 11 goals for Charlton already.

It was Rocky 1.
 
Apollo Creed, clearly the better boxer.Throughout the entire fight he's showing that he's clearly superior and Rocky just takes punch after punch after punch. Gets his little pasty ass beaten hard. But through grit and determination Rocky gets a lucky knockdown on Apollo and takes it to the wire and wins over the crowd, but unfortunately does not come out on top.
 
We were Apollo Creed. Kindof.

Don't think the manager got much wrong today on the other hand the players decision making with the final ball wasn't the best
