    You seem to not understand the concept of a forum.  You might want to consider changing your name to On the Same Page the amount of times you bang on of your appreciation of all things Paul Warne.

    If we won them all 3-0, I bet the most vehemently disgruntled would at least be less vitriolic in their criticism, which would be a start.

    Wrong.
    Other factors like the experience they've gained from careers played at higher levels, the current quality of opposition they're up against and the standing of their current team within it, the quality (and type) of teammate too because one season you could be playing alongside a greedy b****** who gives you no supply, the next a selfless player.  You can throw in popularity with fans as well, and personal circumstances away from football make a difference too.
    It's not a fair crack at the whip you want him to be given though, it's for him to be given all the credit for his grandmother's ability to suck eggs.
    Nowhere did I say that Warne isn't a contributing factor, but attributing the reason for them having their best directly to Warne is just daft.
    Nothing I've posted is unfair on Warne, it's just an assessment based on what I see while holding him to the standards set by his billing, his comments and our aims and objectives.

    The Paul Warne "Out Out" and "Pro" topics have been locked in favour of a single place for discussions.
    This is it.
    I would ask members to refrain from opening any further topics with in/out or similar in the title and continue to post their opinions in here, regardless of result/league position.

    The other factors being that you don’t like Warne?

    A siege mentality comes from being underdogs and having something (real or imagined) to fight against. You're asking for the impossible if you're after that in our current situation.

    I've found plenty of things to criticise over Warne's tenure. Collins has never been one of them. He's put the graft in and scores goals. I've no idea why a section of our fanbases doesn't get behind him.

    Unless the club almost goes under again we'll never have that again. We need to accept that.
    Sometimes to foster a siege mentality you need to actually be under siege.
    We are now in a league in which we should be acting like the biggest club around, because we are the biggest club around. We need to foster a ruthless "we're here to batter whoever is in front of us" mentality instead.
    We should fear nobody in this division.

    Richie Barker said post match Cashin was cramping up having not really trained for a week with a tight hamstring, also that CBT was taken off as a precaution for a complaint with his hamstring.
    He also spoke a lot about the team playing/pressing a different way tonight, something about us surrendering possession, like it was intentional to play on the counter. I didn’t notice anything particularly different to how we’ve approached other games this season, though did notice and comment in the first half how the press wasn’t quite clicking so perhaps there was something different 🤔 
    Anyway here’s the video for anyone interested;

    I tend to look at it as they both have to play us. Those are opportunities for us to put a gap on them IMO. I only mentioned the others in reference to it being a tough end to the month, not them being the only obstacles. In any case, I've said all season that I don't believe we should fear anyone and that's still the case now.

    Quite funny to see some of the meltdowns over the ref. He was giving nothing to either team
    1st half Derby wernt great apart from a moment of magic from birdy
    2nd half Derby were far more solid and a class above
    My favourite moment of the game though was when winning 3-0, 6 foot 5 Sonny Bradley swore at a ball boy so said 13 or 14 year old ball boy looked him dead in the eyes and threw the ball straight on the floor, to which said 6 foot 5 31 year old professional footballer started crying at the ref, to which his audible response was-'he's a child, man up'. Absolutely effing brilliant, shithousery at its best. That kids going far.

    Not sure they're better, we've given them plenty of space in the middle (despite Adams' good work) but being better would indicate they have the quality to make use of that space, and so far they've fluffed their lines every time.
    It's the difference between being a team with a couple of Championship quality midfields and a team with League One quality midfielders.
