Some friskiness between players and coaches to keep that half mildly entertaining but the football from both teams has been woeful.
Sheff Utd clearly the better side but aren't on the same page at all, and Derby players are finding every opportunity they can to play the ball into areas of the pitch devoid of other Derby players.
Still, a bar and a post have been hit. So that's something.
Winning this feels more possible than it did before the game but I'd still be delighted with a draw.

We’re 6th in the table for wins under reffed Andy Madley. Sheffield United 8th. Our records are pretty equal, so they would have the same reason to complain as us with the choice of referee.
No excuses today other than we’re missing Ozoh.

Obviously, this is in the wrong thread 🤣

I've always been a bit fascinated by "anonymous" socialising. How little we know about the people we are talking to/arguing with/wishing misfortune upon (as the day escalates).
We are fairly sure they're a Derby fan, except for the away fans (and one other who comes to mind), but beyond that everything else is unknown. With the exception of course being those of you who know/have met one another. 
I haven't. I should've, when I was still in the UK, I regret that a little. So everyone's a mystery! It's enjoyable at times. Even the stuff folks divulge themselves could be, for whatever reason, untrue (although I don't assume it is).
Generally I just wonder how folks are doing. Wondering if they're writing their messages while sobbing, giddily giggling like Homer Simpson, or completely emotionlessly; a thousand yard stare at the screen.
I usually settle on giggling. Makes people's posts more fun.

Yes, having watched both of their games I don't understand which metrics are being applied to make that happen. Bryce Young has been running for his life every down lol

Pre-season rumours of the NFC South's demise have been greatly exaggerated.
A shame the Panthers didn't get the memo, though.

As I posted in the scifi thread somehow (I haven't even opened that thread previously I'm pretty sure):

I have spoken to @i-Ram in the zoom chats. I can assure you that he looks and behaves exactly like George.

@SaintRamstupid Cowboys… 🤬

Told ya. 😏

More positives than negatives from that Derby performance, but not a good game. The blame lies in no small part to the referee who just wouldn't let the game develop at all; I'd also add that I think only one of yellow cards (to Fish) was deserved.
Derby lost a significant amount of cohesion when Ozoh went off, Osborn was playing like a headless chicken but did settle down a little after Forsyth & Phillips came on, but by then we were committed to parking the bus.
Obviously, should have been 2-0 right at the death - Adams was completely exhausted which makes the miss understandable, but only the timing of it makes it acceptable.
A lot to work on from here, especially if Ozoh is going to be out for a few weeks. It was all very haphazard for most of that half.
Still, we takes the wins, however they comes.

If we changed our national anthem to Bohemian Rhapsody, as we should, everyone would sing it without hesitation.
Current national anthem is so 19th century

I've seen exhausted players do worse things, and often far more impactful things too.
As bad as it was, and if that was the 20th minute he'd be crucified for it, we all knew his legs were jelly before that run, he'd shown signs, so at least he has an excuse. 
For some reason as he entered the box I lost all confidence that he was going to score, cant place why though.

I saw a crazy stat that the Steelers are the only team in the AFC North to have failed to score a TD in their first game and yet are the only team in the division with a win 😂Wild.

Will check back when we beat the Cowboys by 20 🤪
