Totally agree, wish P W wouldnt be in the media so much as well. Just keep quiet and get on with the job.

He’s literally been in the media as much as any other manager up and down the country is required to do. No more and no less.

Pre and post match press conferences and then interviews with in-house media and radio/television.

I don’t get the accusations being thrown his way that he talks too much. Fans complain if a manager is a dullard with no personality or if he’s got a quirky personality who comes out with one liners here and now. He can’t win!  

Really don’t get all the vitriol I’m seeing online.

Any other night it finishes 0-0 and we go home relatively happy with a point away from home against a side in the top 2 with two home games up next.

The performance wasn’t horrific some are making out, I’m not having that. We stood strong defensively in the main other than Davies’s misjudgment which lead to the goal.

We’ve got a cobbled together squad fresh out of 18 months of hell which included an administration yet some think we should be this perfect team and club. There is really no point sticking the knife in after every defeat or disappointing performance.

Huge amount of perspective is needed IMO.

Onto Tuesday night where we look to put things right. ?

He can and will most likely will play.

Derby are looking into a loan deal for ‘Boro right back Darnell Fisher, according to Alan Nixon.

He played under Warne at Rotherham.

Putting 2+2 together and getting 5 but Matthew Olosunde on loan could be an option to look at come January.

He played RWB for Warne at Rotherham but hasn’t really settled since his move to Preston last summer.

Seems the athletic type PW talks about and a good height at 6’1”.

They are incredibly slow to retrieve the ball we’re in a losing position and it’s quickly needed. 

Was quite noticeable yesterday.

Especially when Rammie had to end up kicking it back to their goalkeeper with it rolling all but 1 yard!

We could really do with 13/14 year olds who are able to read the tempo of the game instead of small children.

I wonder which of our players Warne was trying to sign for Rotherham, I reckon Collins & Smith would suit his style

Think it was Barkhuizen. Remember him being linked there earlier in the summer.

They also reportedly held an interest in Osula.

Don’t know if it’s been posted elsewhere on the forum, but Nixon has said this morning that Darren Ferguson would have been in the running to get the job had we not got Warne.

Thank goodness for that. Don’t rate Ferguson one bit.

Thank god it’s still only interim.

His reluctance to move away from what clearly isn’t and hasn’t worked all season will be his undoing.

Talks a good game and looks the part on the touchline but he’s shown nothing to convince me he’s the guy for this job.

A few home wins have papered over the cracks massively. Give this squad to a manager with a a bit of know and we’d be flying.

I beg Rosenior to stop playing Bird and Hourihane as a midfield two.

It hasn’t looked good at any point so far this season. So unbalanced.

Episode 2 has been released.

Anyone a Patreon of Nixons?

 

The club are pressing on with contract talks with LR behind the scenes apparently, with a quick solution needed as he’s got admirers looking at him.
 

Really good podcast with Malcolm here.

Goes through his up bringing and how his move to Derby came about. Part 2 will be out next week.

There was a lot of trouble outside the Harvester around 2:30pm with a heavy police presence involved.

Saw one Derby fan with blood pouring from his head. Seemed like it was your typical stone island DLF wannabes looking for trouble.

He’s a scout at the club if I’m not mistaken.

Done deal.

I'm beginning to realise TFR Football is ran by a teenager with little else to do.

 

It was already exposed to be some kid from the #DCFC timeline who set up a new account yet people still hang on to his/hers every word for some bizarre reason. Think ‘TFR’ was their initials.

How late can I buy a ticket up until kick-off tomorrow night? Might go straight from work.

Still have a feeling Waghorn will end up back here on loan.

Mail on Sunday has us linked with Sheff Utd striker Will Osula on loan. Any good?

Got a link or was it from a #bitinpaper?

Arsenal.

Always had a soft spot for them since my earliest memories of watching any kind of football was the invincible team under Wenger and how in awe I was watching the brilliance of Thierry Henry.

A year or two later, a relative began taking me to the odd Derby game when George Burley was here and then subsequently got a season ticket and haven’t looked back since. 

I then became engrossed in the awe of Iñigo Idiakez and Tommy Smith week in week out instead.
