    Mr Tibbs got a reaction from RodleyRam in Match Thread: (A) Peterborough United   
    Great win, didn't see it coming. We were all at sea for the first 20 but the goal really woke us up and we didn't look back from there on in. I've been critical of Smith and Hourihane but from 20 mins onwards they were good - really good. Thommo was everywhere. Waghorn doesn't need any more praise, performance spoke for itself. The controlled period after half time was nice to see too, settled things down for 20 after the break and allowed us to make subs whilst being in total control of the game. A few set piece scares but expected when leading a good Peterborough side at home. 
    On Rooney - had a tough day at the office but I doubt he'll come up against many better left wingers in this division. Hopefully takes plenty away from today and uses it to improve. No need to panic at RB. 
    Still loads of room for improvement but got to be happy with that.

    Proper athlete. Even if he doesn't offer much creativity going forward, there will at least be some much-needed energy in the middle of the park.

    He says his best attribute is "carrying the ball forward". I cannot wait for someone in our midfield who can do that. Welcome to Derby.

    Maybe we as fans need to keep our beds dry a bit.
    Club and manager don't mention any signings? Fans have a melt down
    Club and manager say signings might happen? Fans have a melt down
    Club and manager say signings will happen  very soon? Fans have a melt down
    The fact that on here, twitter and other forums we had fans at 18.01 saying "where are the promised signings?" Tells you all you need to know.
    But I want it now!!

    Mr Tibbs got a reaction from Donkey Derby in Summer recruitment, and how will it end?   
    Asking the wrong person but can't imagine anyone in this league paying him what we are. 
    I didn't see anyone moaning about the signings of Ward, Elder and Bradley but it doesn't mean they're good players on inspection, does it?
    Hourihane is fine at this level but you can't ignore his age, mobility and how he fits with CM's currenlty at the football club (Bird, Thommo). I think it's a worthwhile point to consider, if he is our assumed highest paid player - could we have got in two younger, more effective CM's instead that offer us a it more in areas in which we're lacking. 
    I appreciate it was bodies in over the long term plan last season but a year down the line I'm unsure whether our rushed business was great and is a major part of the pickle we find ourselves in.

    Seen enough of Bird/Hourihane/Smith to know we won't be challenging for autos with them. If it's two midfielders and they're an improvement on our current lot, then great.

    Mr Tibbs got a reaction from Caerphilly Ram in Not a top 3 team.   
    Seems a stretch. 
    He only got them promoted (3 times in 5 years) because of the squad he inherited? What about the 2 other promotions over a four year period? No credit due for bringing the likes of Ogbene, Barlaser, Smith, Ihiekwe, Harding, Ladapo etc to the club in his time? 
    I think it's fair to say he has his limitations but promotions aren't a given at any level, certainly not with Rotherham United in a league generally full of 'sleeping giants'. I get that he may not be everybody's cup of tea or even the right man to take us up but at least consider the whole picture, there's certainly more to PW than just luckily inheriting a squad during his time up at Rov'rum.
