Heisenberg

Anyone else miss the admin thread? The imminent threat of liquidation was more positive than many of the comments I've read today. Give your heads a wobble if you're calling for the managers head. 

Oh great. Another afternoon of Sibley's two dads (20 dads?) banging on about him every five minutes! 

Final Better Call Saul was released on Netflix today.
Immensely good slow TV that started out even more beautifully shot than Breaking Bad, and somehow went up several notches over the course of 6 series.
Top tier status for me.

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.

Carl Sagan outed  as Sibley's Dad.  

I've just flipped a coin 4 times and got 3 heads. This amply demonstrates that 75% of coin flips will come up heads. Who would have thought it? 
Geez, some of the conclusions reached on here after 4 games is genuinely mind-boggling.
Best one was that Liam has used up all the goodwill.

Disappointed to only come away from a the game with a point after dominating with so much possession but no concerns from me at this stage.
Lacking in the final 3rd of the pitch at the moment but had we played this game in October/November, I reckon we go on to win it comfortably 2 or 3-0.
Onto Fleetwood.

The fuss on RD after the game about them missing three chances and how we could have lost. We missed equally good chances amd their goal was lucky. Don't get the self flaggellation at times. 
Also,  what part of starting pre season rwo weeks late paired with tiring in the second half in 32c heat don't some fans understand. 

Now I must admit to knowing absolutely nothing about Anang, other than a vague memory of perhaps seeing him against us in a 5 minute edited highlights U23 game a season or 2 ago, when my only thought then was that he was big bugger. So in truth I am ill-equipped to join in with the knowledgeable scouting experts who are frequenting this page. So I will default to taking the view that our Club’s scouting team might have done some useful analysis on this guy and he has some potential to be useful in the season to come, perhaps longer. Let’s hope so.

Stearman played well today

I heard that, but certainly didn’t interpret what he said in that negative way. I think you might be over analysing things a bit and looking for ‘issues’ that really aren’t there. Sorry. 

The disquieting thing in Rosenior's Radio Derby interview was that he's making decisions based on reputation. Paraphrasing, it was something like:
What can I do? Sibley deserved his chance and took it and played well, but the problem is I have Korey Smith sitting on the bench and he's one of the best midfielders in the league, so I had to bring him on. 
This is all wrong and you got the feeling Rosenior might have realized it was an error of judgement. He got away with it. Hopefully he'll learn from it.

Shame we lost today. Seems a bit unfair considering we scored more goals than them. 

Blimey ,it didn’t take long for the moaners and football managers in the stands to start!  44 days ago we were still in administration.Since then we’ve signed 12/13 new players in a market based on financial restrictions imposed by the EFL.We’re at least a fortnight behind in terms of fitness and we’re trying to bed in these new players and develop a playing pattern with an inexperienced,although articulate and enthusistic ,interim manager.Football isn’t an exact science and each season there’ll be highs and lows.Personally,I’m delighted with the start and expect fitness and results to improve steadily.Just listened to LR’s post match interview and he emphasised we’re a work in progress and the importance of spirit,resilience and determination in the squad.I think the realists among us realise there’s still a long way to go but from where we were,we should be really pleased with the progress made. Onwards and upwards !

Sibley barely touched the ball second half. Bringing Smith on made sense, to freshen it up.
The idea was to control the game.
But in the space of five minutes, we missed a glorious chance for 3-0 and then Barnsley scored from nothing.
We lost control after that. But Smith used his experience well to win free kicks and slow the game down.
That’s how it will be in this league.
I’m sure we will batter a few teams by three or four at some stage, but games like today was just getting over the line and Smith helped us get there.

The spending continues…
I can’t wait for this to all come crashing down in spectacular Forest fashion.

Kieron Freeman?

That’s the spirit. Right off a player before he’s even played a competitive game for us.

You love posting links to these nonsense websites. Do you even consider it before you post it? You know full well Knight played in defence last week, and last I checked Kasey Palmer hasn’t played for us in years. 

Jenkinson - Plays in Australia. Just signed for Newcastle Jets
Olufunwa - Centre back mainly with less experience than Oduroh
Dinyezi - Centre back again.
Estrada - centre back (again) also just signed for a Slovenian team
Mawson - Another centre back…
Please, while you’re plucking names out of thin air, just do a bit of extra reading to see if they fit the right back position with experience and are available (not just moved somewhere else). 

Terms would have been similar to Robertson. U21s to start, with a view to breaking through to the first team.
Most likely chose Kilmarnock to guarantee first team football.
