Just to add if it wasn’t for some shocking refereeing decisions against Bolton at their ground we would most likely have got a result from there.

Fozzie, Cashin,  Wildsmith, Nelson and Adams all brilliant.  Again that defensive 5 were vital.
NML worked his socks off but his touch wasn't there today.
Wilson was the game changer. I prefer Thompson to Hourihane. 
Sibley and Ward struggled at times to get on the ball. 
Waghorn was pretty ineffective. 
Thought Smith had a decent game.
Another game where the defence kept us in it and we nicked a goal. Its not luck, its the way he manages things and it's taking us back up at the moment.
Not a great performance but a bloody great day. 
 
 

Just some random thoughts on the game:
Fight and determination is there in spades. It’s brilliant to see. 
Fozzy fills me with far more confidence than Bradley, I can’t lie. Isn’t as interested in letting the ball bounce and wrestling. 
Hourihane was horrific. Thankfully dragged off. We can’t keep carrying him every game while his legs have so obviously gone. Is Bird back yet?
Interesting to hear Barkhuizen and Ward came off due to precaution. Did wonder why those two, as Barkhuizen’s runs were one of the brighter points first half. 
What we do next re striker is going to be massive. Waghorn hasn’t got it anymore, but he needs to find something for a week or two until someone else is back fit to help. Gutted for Gayle. 
Wildsmith phenomenal. Think he needed that performance. 

Modern club legend. They don't make 'em like him any more.

It doesn’t matter. We weren’t “lucky” today. Overall, Bolton played the better football and had the better chances but the reason they lost is because they weren’t good enough on the day and because Wildsmith had a very good game. Wildsmith did what he’s paid to do and did it very well and Bolton didn’t do enough to get a goal (or two). That’s not luck.

How good was Fozzy today? 🐑🐑🐑 keep them 3 together at the back we go up in my opinion 🐑🐑🐑

11 points from our last 8 games will give us our biggest ever points return.
I think we can cut him all the slack in the world and get on the Warne bus until May at least.

I don’t think 24,000+ on a Tuesday night in March in League One is that disappointing.
It will be the lowest home crowd of the last five.

One good player a year (either to break into the first team or to sell on to a club further up the pyramid [I'm loathe to say bigger]) and it pays for itself.  

Not sure where to put this as we haven't got a heritage thread, but it looks like we have been gifted the Watney Cup by Bristol Rovers.
Maybe it's just our turn to look after it for a few years? 
 

I would love to know how many were at the Brighton play off game. When we won. The atmosphere was the best I can remember 

I have been a vocal critic of both three at the back and the inclusion of Sonny Bradley.
Today, I was wrong. We negated the threat of Messers Martin and Sinclair. We played excellent pressing football and we broke with intent.
It was as comfortable an away game as you could wish for. Even at half time, we looked in charge.
Well done everybody, including the crowd. I loved it. Brilliant day out.

Agreed, although better teams than Vale and Rovers (who were both rubbish tbh) won't let us have it so easy.

Btw that performance today and vale is how to play 3 at the back. I’ve been crying out to go to a back 4 but if we continue in this vain scrap the 4. We looked solid we moved the ball the front 3 interchanged. Best performance of the season and I loved every minute of the drive home. 

Top performance from the boys today under big pressure. Business end of the season, lots riding on every game. We followed up two back to back defeats with back to back 3-0 wins including dismantling a side in really good form and to be honest a place I thought we’d slip up at. Barnsley were certainties for autos according to some on here after beating us (you get promoted by beating your rivals after all!!), well not if you throw in a 5-1 home defeat to midtable Lincoln. Can you imagine what the meltdown would be on here if we did that. FWIW Barnsley are still well in it if they can bounce back. 
 
Think Warne has stumbled across the winning formula with this line up. Ward and Sibley have been outstanding so dangerous from Wing back, and the front three are a real threat. Then we actually look like we have a decent bench now.
Feel this could be a real defining moment today, this week can definitely be defining. Not if we don’t have a great week, we’ll still be in the mix if that happens but if we have a great week and win both matches, I’d be extremely confident in us getting over the line. 
But this is Derby, we’ll find a way to make things difficult and there will be plenty of twists and turns. But if we’ve found this level of performance at this stage of the season, and we can sustain it, then it’s extremely encouraging. 

Don’t get 5 at the back when 4 went well for most of the season. Can only think it’s about giving star signing Bradley a game. I hope Warne isnt jeopardising a season for the sake of keeping Bradley sweet. The rest of the season isn’t about keeping what we have, it’s about being ultra positive and going for the jugular.

13 million 13 MILLION??? They didn’t do anything but give  a fraudster the best chance to buy our club? Absolutely incredible they get Away with this 

No.  This league is awful.
