This is going to be our 5th game in two weeks. 
Managing his mins will be important.

Warne completely given up of Stearman then……can’t say I blame him though.

Makes me laugh some of the comments, Warne may or may not be right for DCFC but he is a nice bloke and friendly and there is no pleasing some.....making friends with Klopp could lead to a loan or two who knows and I for one don't think you get much from life in general by  being nasty or un-friendly.
He's not my choice as manager and I certainly don't agree with some of the tactics etc but football apart  he seems like a thoroughly decent bloke 

I miss when we usedto be good at penalties. We are so bad at them now
Pretty good performance though

Mendez-Laing only ever has 60 minutes in him. The problem is we don't have any other wingers right now.

Whether we like it or not, we are still recovering from life saving surgery, and are now officially a "Minnow".
Not sure what some folk were expecting from tonight, but I for one am rather chuffed with where we are at this stage in our recovery, and equally so at HT in this particular game.
 

Just got the sad news 

I wasn't going to say anything about the match as I am so late to the witch-hunt, having not had much of a phone signal in my little Devon hideaway. 
But I do think there's been some unnecessary hysteria on here over this result, mostly from people who only viewed it on TV and are therefore heavily influenced by the one-eyed narrative on ITV.
Due to the heavy rain the day before and that morning, the pitch was in a shocking state, the players warmed up in the corner in front of us and were slipping all over the place. It churned up the very corner of the pitch where Mendez-Laing makes his runs. His first run after kick-off you could hear the squish squelch with every step. I'm surprised he kept his boots on! 
The wind was swirling on and off as the showers rolled in, it was so difficult to predict, which is why Wildsmith wasn't making the halfway line with one kick to be promptly followed by a hoof into touch. He was also being abused by two of our own brain-dead fans.
People said Collins wasn't doing his job  of holding the ball, but he was being bear-hugged by their centre half all game. Likewise Dobbin and Osula, who nearly lost his shirt to a player on one occasion with no foul given. Funny how the ref missed all those but managed to 'see' Cashin's tug from fully thirty yards away and not even realising which player had committed the offence. 
I thought the Torquay crowd were fantastic, noisy and belligerent,  they definitely influenced the referee to give everything their way. 
Yet despite all that, I thought we'd been clinical enough to win the game until Cashin's unfortunate lapse of judgement. For those laying into him and suddenly calling him out as a bad player, he is in the League One team of the season, has barely put a foot wrong and has shown a responsibility for results that many senior players could learn from. There'll be no-one feeling worse about what he did than Cash himself.
The weather was at its worst after the sending off. The rain and wind were relentless, Warne took off our strongest player (no doubt thinking of tomorrow night) and didn't immediately strengthen our defensive midfield. I'm not sure it would have mattered anyway with the aerial onslaught that followed. When he did decide to act he brought on ball playing Hourihane and ratter Tommo over the head it and kick it style of Rooney - not his most astute substitutions, imo.
Even then we looked like we'd held on for the win until right at the death when the ref miraculously found that extra few seconds to allow them to create one last chance for their fairytale draw. Not good for a beleaguered Derby County squad but another win for the TV narrative. 
I thought our lads on that pitch were warriors on Sunday, and applauded every last one of them off the pitch. The invasion just before the finish was scary and the Torquay fan who squared up to Roberts right in front of us wants banning for life. Instead the BBC were putting out tweets celebrating the magic of the cup sparking pitch invasions with laughing emojis.
There is some bloody hypocrisy in football and I don't have to buy into it. You can choose for yourselves.

Centre half, linked by Nixon on his patreon which obviously I’m not allowed to share. 29 years old but can’t say I know anything else about him.

If I was PW I’d be asking him to come back for the second half of the season, give us 6 months to try and get this club back into the champ after all the crap it’s been through. If we fail to reach our goal, a gentleman’s agreement will be in place to let him go in the summer providing a financial threshold is met.

Nelson, linked by Nixon on his column surely?

Radio Derby is the only BBC product I have any interest in. I wish I could just give the local radio station my TV licence money and give them the funding. Excellent coverage, the takeover reaction reduced me to tears driving home. I'm never going to receive that with a cross coverage with different teams.
Horrible decision. Yet they brought back bbc three to compete with all the trash on ITV2. 

BBC Diversity manager £250k for a 3 day week don’t forget.
The BBC are too busy looking after the gravy train in London to bother about regional Radio stations scrap the license fee it’s outdated get rid of the whole lot.
I was listening to Erewash sound today they announced the presenters are volunteers. 
 
 

I don’t think you should rule out partial funding through advertisements as Americans have gone overboard with it, I watch NFL, I know how bad it is and not for a second suggesting anything for the sort.
Keep the quantity inline with other terrestrial channels and radio stations. 
Adverts in the middle of Eastenders and popular shows like Strictly Come Dancing would rake in the money, at this point it seems daft not to.

Scrap the licence fee and fund it solely through advertising. Over paid presenters and a diversity manager £250k+, it’s turned into a money pit and they’ve completely lost touch with how the majority of people consume their entertainment. They’ve lost out on multiple sports contracts over the years they’ve even lost some England games in recent years. Their model is completely outdated and needs a revamp but their too comfortable charging people a licence fee under the threat of jail time if you don’t pay it.
