Madri is Carling but with added hop. 

No it isnt

I mean, the choice are either Madri or watered down Carling, I was fairly confident on which one it would be 

Nice of you to accuse the club of fraud. 
I assume you’ve been in touch with the council’s licensing team to investigate?

It’ll be something bland like a new pundit for match day. 

I see James Scanlon’s little brother has signed for Man Utd too. 
another case of little brother joining big brother after being forced to leave Derby for the money in previous years.

Not trying to start a Pearce pile on, but what point is he trying to make about the independent regulator here? That they would have stopped Morris?

 

One of the main parts of the regulator is “live” financial monitoring so over spending outside of FFP is caught straight away and clubs told there and then to rein it in.

It’ll be partly due to the safety advisory board and the council only granting a safety certificate if there’s certain amount of distance for segregation or policing/stewarding there.

Lindsay is irrelevant to the conversation for the Northampton match as he’s out on loan. 
 

it’s only u21 international teams and above that count.

I live in breadsall estate, with a lot of greens and you never see boys playing football like the did when mine were young. Dont know if its parents not letting them play out or sitting playing video games all day. Sad really.

Locals yelling at them not to play there because they make a little bit of noise.

I almost wish the Super League had happened and the domestic leagues had refused to have anything to do with the 'big 6' ever again.....

It tends to be the clubs outside of the top six who vote for more restrictions on EFL clubs. They want to pull up that drawbridge as much as possible.

What statistics?

Well, we did have a ball juggler at half time to entertain us. 

Trapped the ball better than most of our players! 

Genuinely one thing that gets me angry is how many times the players ’first touch sends in the air to head height when they’re trying to control a pass.

You're putting allot of faith in a manager who's record is poor anywhere but Luton.

This is my biggest bugbear about Warne's management.  He can't resist the urge to tinker every game.

Pick a settled formation - and play it.

Pick a settled team and subject to injuries, play it. When you need to, substitute like for like.

And don't just take off your midfield and throw all your forwards on when you're chasing a win.

The players look lost at times. Sometimes they are playing two or three formations/positions in the same game. Their instinct and trust for linking play are completely nullified in that situation. 

There were 3 changes in formation in 15 minutes at the start of the second half. 
2 minutes after the third change the ball is knocked into the now vacant left back channel and the penalty ours given away. 
 

the players are all over the place because of the managers tinkering during game.

Here's a thought..late February and Mendez Laing runs out of steam...deja vu or what???

Another is ...how many injuries due to over running the players??

And the biggest was when he said ..Chris Martin wasn't his type of player...and yet a class player who can look after himself and score goals is exactly the type we need!

Agree with that, although Martin wouldn’t come back up here. He’s nicely settled in Bristol with the woman he cheated on his wife and left his kids for.

Don’t be silly. We’ve played well in lots of games. Lots of teams have had periods of poor form. Everyone raved about Portsmouth- they were naff over Xmas. Everyone raved about Peterborough- they’ve dropped off the face of the earth.

Both Derby and Bolton are currently in a mini slump. Not the end of the world. All will look rosy again on Saturday when we batter Port Vale 

Played well in patches of games. But when was the last time we put in more than 45 minutes of a decent performance. 

I can’t wait to see how people defend his performance tonight

Warne to change tactics for next game

And after 30 minutes, then 45, then 60, then 70, then 75, 80, 85…

£60 increase for me. Up by 15%

Wish one of these days a club would take him on. Rather suspect though, in a lot of cases there’s no smoke without fire and clubs probably don’t want the scrutiny either.

Really dislike the bloke, because essentially he’s become an expert in others woes, never mind football finance.

Those who can, do. Those who can’t, teach. 

A welcome and good win, but that was a tough watch the second half.
