Could our results have been any better or any worse under another manager, playing different formations and tactics than those we have played under Warne?
Unless someone possesses a reliable crystal ball, the answer to that question is pure conjecture.
Maybe the question we should be asking ourselves is the club in a better or worse position than we thought, hoped it would be when the team lined at the start of the season. The answer to that question is probably a better indication to how we believe Warne is performing as our manager.
I can't find it but at the beginning of the season, I'm sure there was a poll asking where we thought we would finish the season.
So comparing that poll to where we actually finish, may give a better indication to how well the manager has done. Than a poll taken when we are going through a poor run of games.
Wonder what the results of poll taken in mid January would have looked like?
So thankyou for the invite but I'll gracefully decine to participate in a meaningless poll.

Yes Ipswich were dynamic in their approach to the game, they were physically stronger and quicker than us for much of the game. 
The thing the wrist slashers and manager out sections amongst us, seem to be ignoring is the fact we had a perfectly good goal disallowed. How the game would have unfolded at 1-1, no one can say. 
 If we had finished with a one all result, against what some believe to be the best team in the division, how many unused sharp objects would still be safely packed away in the bathroom cabinet
Lets also remember this was against a team that was strengthened in the January transfer window, is on a good run of form and is being predicted by some pundits to be top of the division come the end of the season.
Will the aforementioned sections please sit back and take a moment to reflect on where we as a football club are right now. We could easily not have a club to moan about.
Yes I, like every Derby fan wants to see us play sparkling football, to return to the Championship and higher as quickly as possible. But we are where we are, having to cope with the severe transfer restrictions imposed on upon the club.
For a team that was cobbled together of nothing at the start of the season, has it over or under achieved? 
I'm happy we are even in the mix for the chance of getting promotion. At the start of the season I just hoped we wouldn't be dragged into a relegation dog fight and been content for us to see the season out in mid-table mediocrity. Giving the club time to reorganize after a traumatic few years.

Some scores would have been lower but some players redeemed themselves slightly in the second half.

If we carry on with current form we'll be lucky to get a win and a draw from these five games

So you never get furious.
You weren't at the game today then?

Fozzy is my chose for player of the season. He's been outstanding, mostly playing in a position that's not his normal position, while leading a defence that contain a young Centreback and a variety fullbacks, none of whom have regularly played there. In recent weeks he's also had to take on the responsibility of captain.
Fozzy may not have that panache, star status that some want from a POTY. But without the solid performances he's put in this season. Instead of pushing for promotion we could easily be fighting to avoid relegation.

I wouldn't say the UK is in the middle of Europe, more on the western edge.
So refugees can only arrive here by passing through a safe country. As you say we're an island, I can think of numerous countries you can arrive from without passing through any other country. Doing it in small inflatables may be a bit dodgy but big boats can easily sail right around the globe without stopping. And lets not mention the invention of the aeroplane.

Fully agree if someone turns up on our shore and never asks for asylum, they should be classified as entering the country illegally.
But if that person seeks out a policeman or any governmental official as soon as they can on arrival and asks for asylum, then they should be classified as an asylum seeker and be processed accordingly.
The new immigration bill presently going through Parliament wants to classify anyone that arrives here, that hasn't already applied for asylum seekers status before they travel to the UK, as an illegal immigrant. Regardless of wether or not they ask for asylum immediately on their arrival into the UK.

He didn't call him Nazi's did he.  he pointed out that the rhetoric being used by the government is very similar to the language used by the Nazi's in the 1930's to stir up discrimination towards the Jewish population.  And judging by the fact you seem to be blaming waiting lists, housing & energy bills on refugees, you've fallen for it hook, line & sinker...

Maybe you could follow the example of those on the right and just the term woke for everyone that differs from themselves now days?
Well I suppose it's easier for their small mindedness to remember just the one pronoun.

What with people queuing for food and drink that stretches across the concourse and queues to get into the toilets. Along with those already gathered consuming their purchases or just talking, our own concourses aren't the easiest to move through at times. It might help if the club could organise the queues for refreshments to run down the length of the concourse, instead of letting them randomly form across it.
