Now I'll have to get there an hour earlier than normal, to make sure I get a space.

😎 If Warne thinks we can be mid-table with having only 8 starting players, I'm not going to argue with him. Me being a bit of conventionalist, I'd always have 11 players on the pitch at the start of a game.

If all these players were to leave, it would mean major changes to the core of our squad resulting in a serious and probably expensive foray into the transfer market. Meaning the club would have less of their transfer budget available to bring in the three or four players we will need to compete in the Championship. I agree that Waghorn and possibly Barkhuizen will be gone, but unless Smith, Thompson, Sibley, Collins and Wildsmith ask to leave I think they will still be at Derby next season. While the areas that will need strengthening are leftback, midfield and central striker, I'd be happy to see Washington, Elder and Fornah moved on and their wages used to help pay the wages of the better players that we will need. As for Forsyth, I'd like him to be given another 12 month contract as I think he's still the best leftback we have on the books and will be good cover at both leftback and centre-back.

Yep. My nerves won't be calmed, until the final whistle is blown at the Carlisle game and we're still in second place.

Bolton doing their best to get us promoted. Please please please don't F it up on Saturday.

What percentage of this mixed seating would to be occupied by police and stewards. But it would certainly make for an interesting atmosphere.

Leave the East Stand alone, thank you. Why would moving the away fans make for a better atmosphere? The Rams fans in the East Stand on the other side of the away fans do our bit in creating the atmosphere. And after sitting in the same seat since the Queen opened PPS. I don't want to be forced to move to the South Stand or god forbid the West Stand. It's bad enough having to do it for certain cup games.

A great team performance which resulted with a win and three important points, compounded by the results elsewhere. A number of posters have stated Orient were poor. But how much was down to our own performance? If we had come out with the wrong mindset, yesterday's result could have easily gone the same way as the Northampton or Wycombe game. Just hope, for the sake of my sanity, it will be yesterday's team that turns up for the games against Cambridge and Carlisle and not the one that came out of the tunnels at Northampton and Wycombe.

We started the game with purpose but slowly allowed Wycombe to dictate the pace of the game. I was hoping the half-time break would give us the chance to regroup and come out firing on all cylinders in the second half. Unfortunately we didn't, our performance got more and more abject and as the game went on I got increasingly nervous that we would give away a goal. By the end of the game I was probably more relieved we hadn't lost than I was disappointed we didn't win. But the overall feeling I had was anger at the lack of intensity and passion we showed throughout the second half. I was going to go over the the Wycombe player's rating thread but like some of the players last night, I can't be arsed to go and but in the effort to do it.

The minster in charge of overseeing the Post Office, is now calling for those in charge of bringing in and then covering up the egregious prosecutions of post masters, to face jail time. And so they should. But anyone want to take any bets on how far up the management ladder this will reach. It certainly won't reach up to the top rung of management. Some poor sods may be thrown to the wolves, but I doubt it will go beyond the first rung, if it even reach that high.

Not any nonsense I grew up believing. While eating Mulligatawny soup, I convinced a work mate that a mulligatawny was a bird similar to a Grouse that originated from the foot hills of the Himalayas. And tasted of curry due to it's diet mainly consisting of curry leaves which grew in abundance on the hillsides.

I won't care who scores a goal that results in us getting promoted. I'd just like it to be in front of few lucky Rams fans stood behind the goal at Cambridge. Meaning on the final day of the season, I can be a in a packed Pride Park, celebrating promotion before a ball is kicked.

Voted for Cashin in both categories.

I don't think it will be just the Wycombe game that will be an ugly ugly game. Wycombe along with the other remaining 3 teams, who by the time we meet them, will probably have nothing to play for. Other than the kudos of beating us. They'll all know we'll need wins, to keep ahead of the chasing pack. I believe all 4 teams will be dogmatic in their approach to the game, try to stifle us by any means possible, be they fair of foul. Then hopefully pinch a goal when we overstretch ourselves as we push forward looking for a goal. Unless we manage to score a couple of early goals, I doubt any of the last 4 games will be easy to watch.
