My very own mild mannered brother calls him a rude name. But then my brother is not known for his love of touchy feely management styles. 
personally, I love it when I have a manager who portrays that they like me, they are genuinely interested in me and my life outside work. Managers who don’t acknowledge you have a life outside the day job are never going to get the best out of me. 
I like Paul Warne, as a person, I think he’s a decent guy.

Can’t remember him not thanking the fans for staying with the team, whilst also acknowledging the times they’ve had the right to be unhappy. I don’t mind him having a chip back at the fans after some of the dog’s abuse he’s had on SoMe particularly. He’s a multi-layered character, but I’d rather that than some of the media-trained auto-matrons who spout the usual clichés every Saturday teatime.

I won’t lie I hated the way some on here reacted to our slow start. The moaning criticism of our manager from everything to his ability to manage our “bigger club” to the way he talks his interviews his hats his sense of humour was appalling. It became clear and still s from tne underlying resentment about the recent upturn in form that some ( so called ) supporters became so invested in Warne failing that they started to relish a bad result. 

My advice to any fan who feels this way is, unfortunately, rather old-school : grow a thicker skin, it's not like he's calling you out personally infront of the whole fanbase. Brian Clough was forever calling out Derby sections of the fanbase for not loving his team enough. Different times but, honestly, it's not about YOU - unless you want it to be.

That's got me thinking, our last game is Carlisle at home 49 years and 1 day after we collected our second title on the pitch before the game against the same opponents, is it an omen?🤞

Just caught up on the match thread after getting in rather late and not getting much sleep as my head was buzzing all night! Well what a night! Much has been said of the match so I just want to take an emotional view. So proud of the players for sticking to the task and getting what they fully deserved. So proud of the fans for sticking with the team. Absolutely loved the continuous rendition of "We are Derby, Super Rams", so much more supportive of the team than than a song about a totally unimportant ex forest player, let's keep this up! The scenes after the third goal, I hope everyone came out unscathed! The scenes at the end, with practically the whole team starting the bounce, such togetherness. The poor Oxford fans who have the misfortune of having the missing stand at the away end so they get the full force of taunts from the away fans as they leave the ground 🤭. Oh and getting stuck in the car park til 10.45pm, but not caring one bit! COYR!

Well that performance last night was an absolute tonic to me after a dreadful Christmas (my dad is terminally ill and has been in hospital throughout Xmas). I wasn't going to go , even though the Kassam Stadium is less than 2 miles away from where I live but my family persuaded me to so I went and apart from that first 15 minutes I had the best away day I've had for years. That second half performance was brilliant; relentless attacking pressure that blew Oxford away. The Rams fans last night were also amazing; you wouldn't have known we were the team 2-0 down. I couldn't speak at the final whistle from all the singing!
Its nights like that that make following this club so special. After what has been a rough few weeks personally I really needed that experience last night.

Can’t believe what I witnessed last night, worst possible start , then total domination and brilliant end , celebrated into the early hours in Oxford, woke up this morning with a banging head and no voice but it was all worth it , love the players , management , the club and our wonderful fans , this was a massive win , Pompey we are coming for you COYR

In the league we haven't conceded a goal from open play since October.  Since August we have conceded four goals in total at home. 

Some of us came out in support for Warne during the Dark Times and got pelted. But we are all friends again now.

Sorry youth, but you've had a 'mare there. Just because a player has a relegation under his belt doesn't mean it was his fault.

It’s football and that could happen. We’d know better if there wasn’t a transfer window to negotiate…
Either way, I’m just enjoying both the good times and the absence of the armchair experts who were spoiling the Forum for me a few months ago. It would be wonderful to have a successful season for all kinds of reasons😄

Warne Out Out Thread…….
”Your so quiet you sound like Nottingham”………

If we was talking about the odd game being lucky, I may see your point.
However it’s a run of 8 games, lucky to score 18 and concede just 3 yet it’s the next 2 that would swing it? 
Look at the 10 game form someone posted earlier, even with the defeat we still top the table.
Bit unfair at this stage not to give credit where credit is due.

Just know that, just because you are the dad, you can do nothing right in the first weeks. This isn’t as bad as it seems, mum will be confused, exhausted and overwhelmed too, she still loves you. 
Accept offers of help, don’t be too proud. Grandparents will treat that baby like the most precious thing in the world, let them help. 
you’re going to be tired beyond endurance, because even if they don’t wake up for feeds, you will need to go check they’re ok! 
You will be filled with the most amazing love for her but if she goes out into the world an independent and happy girl you will have done a great job.
