    He's playing a part in a team thats still trying to gel, still trying to get to know each other. Big test for Liam how he handles it, stick or twist? Its probably made easier because we're winning, to start him on Saturday.
    Some love from the crowd might help.

    His work rate for 90 minutes his phenomenal. As he is putting himself about for the full 90 minutes, it means defenders lose their concentration and it creates chances. This has been seen multiple times this season.
    I saw on multiple occasions last night, he got the ball into feet, played it out wide and then went full sprint into the box. He was doing this time and time again. He often makes his runs to the back post - and some of our crossing hasn't been great.
    Then defensively, he's a monster in our box. He's being given one of the most important defensive heading roles (the free man in the middle) - again - he wins a lot of headers in our box. 
    It all goes together. If we're winning as a team, and we generally are, then his spot is earnt even without the goals.
    What I liked last night - when he missed that chance in the 93rd minute - no-one got on his back - 90% of people in the East stand applauded him. These are the types of fans I want.
    He's not even close to being dropped in my eyes - his all-round play is immense, just a goal or two will keep the doom mongers away.

    The same player lunged in on barks in the first half but missed him. I think it was when it was pulled back for sibley 
    it’s presumably the way the fella plays.
     
    And yesterday it got him sent off

    I love League one.
    Two months ago this club might have folded. We would all have had to make the choice - do we attend a phoenix club in the East Midland's North, League Division Nine or do we choose to pick a new team to support.
    Compared to what we could have won, every referee is Pierluggi Colina and every match is as good as EMD.

    Madness really but that’s football. As I walked away from the game with my 9 year old lad ( both of us in our rams shirts) a posh fan made a point of saying ‘Cheating Derby barstools’ I turned round and said something along the lines of grow up my kids with me to get a response of ‘What you want a go’. Really couldn’t believe it and maybe 10 years ago my response would have been very different. We all get frustrated by the game which is why we love it so much but come on. There’s plenty out there who they’d get a response out of, me without my lad prob being one. Suck it up, be a big boy and take the loss. 
     
    Onto the game. The less the said the better. As well as McGoldrick and Fozzy did it was Smith for me who was the difference. Constantly trying to play forward and be progressive. I love Bird but at times he could do with sitting down and watching a George Thorne reel. He is too fond of just being the pivot between the CB’s. He is more than capable of receiving the ball on the halft turn and playing forward. He could quite easily have got Stears sent off today. He is technically so good but needs to be more progressive with his passing. But 3 points is a good return and we move onto the next.

    Not been interested in the Prem itself in years so by that token barely registers on my radar we're further down the pyramid from it. I agree with the OP, 3pm Saturday football is more important than prime time TV money slots and great to see it so frequently. Not everything should be for sale to the highest bidder. Enjoying the club being competitive again with an exciting squad too, I like the group. I'm more a Derby fan than I am a football fan though so my opinion reflects that. I'd be interested in Derby in any league. As in I couldn't even tell you how the Championship table looks because I'm simply not interested anymore. No idea about it. More interested in who Derby are playing on Tuesday. League One fixtures, League One Clubs, League One forums, only thing I take an interest in now.

    Apart from the delight of the last 10 mins I can’t say I enjoyed that. Heads dropped when the goals didn’t go in. Midfield surrendered. Hourihan and Bird were absent for so much of the game. Can’t win enough second balls, passing was off for big chunks of the second half. Peterborough are game and tough .. but crude and nothing special, they too had a share of the poor passing, bad control and fluffed shots. Can’t get that excited about Dobbin. Lively and hard working yes, but there’s something missing - hopefully game time and experience will help him find it. We miss NML. Collins looking rattled. Needs to play against Grimsby and get one. 
     
    Cashin, apart from an early error, was excellent again, as was Knighty. Once again it was McGoldrick who was the catalyst aided and abetted byFozzy who turned up and played well like he always has. Sibley did well and was consistently aggressive and forward thinking. 
    After they went down to 10 men our midfield looked somewhere between lazy and knackered
     
    Still, we kept plugging away and won ugly .. I think that’s what you need to do to win leagues. COYR
    Fantastic noise towards the end felt like the whole stadium was singing and chanting rather than just the South Stand.
