Today I felt more confident with our defence with Fozzy playing instead of Bradley.

As to your question on how many Derby fans will be going to Fratton Park. The answer, as many as Portsmouth will allow. Unfortunately the number of tickets available to us isn't that large.

I still cannot fathom how the people who set the train prices think that £225 for a return ticket to London from Derby is a reasonable price to pay.
I know you can get it cheaper by booking specific train tickets a few weeks in advance but this is rarely practical and doesn't exactly encourage people to use the service.
Ticket pricing is plain bonkers. Booked a train ticket, not for a football match, on Trainline and the cheapest ticket cost £28. The stupiid bit was the next train an half hour later, was more than double the price and this pattern of price fluctuation was repeated twice more.
I grudgingly accept the price increase during periods of high demand but these trains were for the late morning, early afternoon.

What a poor survey. This is a key point for me that stops me going to any night games at Pride Park - you can't even get back to London afterwards. Yet there was nowhere to raise the issue.
Yep, fully agree a very poor survey. Not sure what this survey is trying to achieve. If it's looking at how the rail industry can encourage more football fans to travel to games by train. Then it failed miserably.

Doc Martens are good once broken in.
This advice is all well and good. But finding someone to give a good kicking, to properly break them in, may be more of a problem than it use to be.

Always feel great when walking away from the game with a win, no matter how we achieved it.
But today came away with an extra little bit of satisfaction. Watching Steve Evans get p1ssed off on the ninetieth minute. Also him then stood on the sideline pointing to his watch, desperately complaining about time wasting while Wildsmith took a free kick. After he'd smugly sat in the dugout watching his own keeper waste as much time as possible all game. Nearly gave me as much pleasure as Sibley's goal.

I think I may have been a little generous with the scores. But like some of the players, I can't be bothered to put in the effort to change them.

Don't shut the door. I'm sure there'll be a few members of the Warne out brigade, who'll be needing to sit in a darkened room. While coming up with reasons why we need to sack a manager that's got us sat second.

A few photos I'd not seen before including a couple of Ray Wilkins. Who in the 60s was my PE teacher at Mackworth

After our diabolical showing on Tuesday. I'm hoping as a form of an apology, our players want to give us a better performance than they gave against Bradford. That they are ready to fight and scrap for every ball. We move the ball quickly, soundly beat Burton and come Monday night we are sat second in the table.
Then use that result as a springboard to push us on to promotion.
I'll even happily suffer seeing Boycie's gurning mug at the start of every match day thread, if it results in us being back in the Championship.

Three points, three well taken goals. Not a lot to say about the performance other than I wish we would learn how to kill off the game in the last 15 minutes.

Merry Christmas to everyone. ⛄

I've not been happy with Hourihane's contribution in many of this season's games. He may turn up for brief spells but goes missing to often in games like today, where we needed all hands to the pumps.
The remaining games will be all about not dropping points. So we'll need players who'll fight tooth and nail for every point. And I don't think Hourihane is able to do it.
I won't care how ugly we win, I just want us to promoted.
