I'm glad you posted that video, I had no idea what a back heel pass was.

Not sure this guy has met Sonny as he will show him how good it was 😂 lol

What a wonderful piece of skill down in the North West corner 

This lad has really stepped up lately

I would agree that Sibley is a better sub than starter, especially against strong teams, but the team/formation from 60 mins to 75 should have started the game.

 

Having said that we could have lost the game if we started that way but who knows. 
Warne ultimately got it right by bringing Smith and Sibley on when he did .

No one knows if Barks may have scored as football isn’t an exact science 

PS I was calling for Sibley at HT and until he came on but I didn’t think Smith would be a revelation he was and Wilson moving position was decisive with Nyambe going off. 

Well I’d say Adams has been a good addition to the squad even if we will lose Bird at the end of the season due to him wanting a different challenge next season  . That one really hurts as I think he’s a great lad and a fabulous footballer.

Very upset for James Collins and the Derby fans that he’s out for a while but  all the best to him with his recovery.

As regards the original point of the question I would say on reflection Warne was right to add to midfield but it could be difficult without James but we won yesterday so let’s hope we can get promoted with what we have and hopefully Dwight Gayle .

End of the day let’s all as Derby fans stick together and hope we do it. 
 

PS  Never write players off as Sonny Bradley was brilliant yesterday

When's Waghorn back? No update from the club on him. Hopefully Wash is back the end of the month.

I’m sorry but you can’t have, Adams is here as a loan signing but Bird isn’t 🤷🏻‍♂️

It’s well documented that they had a player in the building and the deal was scuppered at the last minute.

Ok . It’s not my problem it’s Warnes and the clubs if Collins is out long term .

I am just disappointed ☹️ 

Hope Warne can get us promoted but I won’t get over Bird going easily. 
 

Really shortsighted by the club not getting backup for Collins IMO in January.  They got Adams yes butBird has essentially gone

Well there’s a few on here that think they know everything 🙄

Well Warne clearly doesn’t.  Look at Shrewsbury.  1 point out of 6 and we were terrible at home and away. Yes we beat Exeter I accept that .

Yep, it was obvious so if he is seriously injured, Warne and co have got what they deserved.

Well he thinks he can get through without an addition at CF.  Maybe he can but if it’s playoffs he will struggle IMO.  What do I know but I wouldn’t want to rely on what he has now. 

So as I said CF was a must in January even if Collins is ok

Thanks David 

Still think another CF would have been useful addition. 

So is Adams the holding midfielder who allows others to do their best work particularly Bird and Hourihane 

All over at Exeter.

Great result for Derby

2-1 Exeter

Posh down to 10 men

Tbf mate there's only ever been 1 or 2 players better than them in history. 

Its a high bar to measure him against!

Probably our best player now Bird has gone.  I’m just making the point really that he won’t stay in League 1 next season if we don’t go up.  
Of course I want promotion who wouldn’t but it’s by no means a given now after failing to get a CF in .

What do I know but we were poor against Cheltenham but our only CF and Bird dug us out  

Just now, Tamworthram said:

Has anyone suggested he is? Can’t you just be remotely pleased that one of our more dependable players (in most people’s eyes I would suggest) has extended his contract? 
 

I’m afraid your destined for a lifetime of disappointment if you’re going to continue to set the likes of McFarland and Todd as your benchmark.

Please about him staying when he was staying anyway or did we have an amazing bid !

I’m saying it’s typical Derby burying bad news with announcing this today

Curtains, put the fishing rod away.

Club's most saleable asset, and POTY contender secured. How that can be anything but good news is beyond me.

Bird has gone I ain’t bothered about Cashin

Are you a joke?

It good news week .

We have one CF .

Woopee

He's better than your absolutely awful take on this.

I thought he was great in U21s for us and said he had a future but he is no Roy McFarland or Colin Todd

Mate you have this as good news.  
Wow how this club has fallen.
