Good to see us capitalising on an absolute howler from a defender for a change rather than the other way around.
And just puts into focus all this crap about keeping possession in our own penalty area for the sake of it, we wouldn't have scored it if we had still been persisting with that "tactic". 

Cheers rojo. It was nice to see (from our perspective at least) that the whole thing seems to have been handled professionally and respectfully too. Our new owner (local man and fan) has made a big point of saying that after the carnage of the last couple of years that left a bad taste in everyone's mouths, that he wants the whole club to conduct itself with some integrity and that the character of the manager was a big part of that and why he went for Warne. We have not selected a shirt sponsor yet because the right kind of offers are not there yet and he doesn't want to just sell the clubs soul to just another betting company. Looks like we are going down the charity route for now which is great.
Really hoping that Warne is a big success here not just as a Derby fan but because I want to see the right people do well and that includes our owner and Warne himself. Good luck in the Championship, you've made a very solid start !

I just want to say how lucky you are to have Paul Warne as manager. I've supported the millers for 69 years. Obviously, I've seen managers come and go during that period. As far as I'm concerned, and many other fans Warne is the best manager we've had.
Like Derby fans we went through some dark times. Administration points deducted, lost our ground, forced to play in Sheffield in an athletic stadium. No atmosphere, 4 years in the 4th division.
Paul has many qualities. Excellent staff management, a workaholic. He's articulate, honest and will live and breathe Derby County.
I thank him for all the memories, 3 Wembley wins 3 promotions and I wish him well and as a consequence wish the Rams well. I've never had a second team, but for the first time Derby County will be my second team. I look forward to seeing Paul succeed. 
Hopefully Derby will be promoted and we survive in the championship and look forward to see you at the New York stadium.
All the best.
 
 

I actually find it quite refreshing as he gives the impression of not being a two minute badge kisser , I bet if we win a playoff final at Wembley and a proper bond has formed with him and the fans he will bounce with us , at the moment I get the impression he would feel a bit cringy doing it after five minutes at the club and one game in ,
let him concentrate on winning games and the rest will follow , he could become a cult hero for us with a proper bond , not a lampard bounce away without a glance back after 5 minutes at the club

Bird has had this ability all along, has shown it in previous games, though extremely rarely as all his other managers have asked him to play a certain way. 
If Warne keeps encouraging this approach from Bird, and he bulks up a little, Bird is going to be a great asset to the side.

Warne on the basis we have to back the current man at the helm. I am, however, disappointed for Rosenior, 7th is a good start with all the upheaval we've had, what was the expectation at board level, we'd be top 3 all season? It makes sense if Rosenior was only ever interim with a view to a permanent always coming in i.e. just a matter of timing. If Rosenior had a genuine chance at the job, somewhat harsh given the players he brought in and a solid enough, if not spectacular start. I do hope the style changes now though with a new manager, doesn't need to be totally thrown away given a lot worked and we can still be a possession team but the obsession with kamikaze style triangles in and around our box and a keeper playing almost on the halfway line...be glad to see the back of those aspects.
 
 

You keep repeating that you think he'll be looking to sell the club quickly, but this is the exact opposite of what he told the SCG on Thursday evening. 

I’m warming to this guy he really could be what we need. He will get my full support as Derby manager just like anyone else ?????

'lacking the potential Liam might have had' sums up your argument. We're looking for immediate promotion back to the championship, not to give a complete rookie the job based on hope, good vibes and sentimentality. 

At the end of the day, we've done our time being a proving ground for new managers. 
Three out of our last four managers had never had a job before being appointed by us. The other had never managed in this country.
I wish Liam all the best but he was only appointed interim manager for a reason. I thought he was doing a decent job but the style of football was way too ambitious for this league - Cocuball reborn.
This seems like the most sensible appointment we've made in years. I have a good feeling about Warne.

It was easily one of the worst performances in recent history 
Cracks were also papered over against Peterborough and Wycombe at home, and if we’d lost 4-0 to Plymouth it wouldn’t have been harsh on us 
It was time for the change 

Were you not at the Plymouth game? ?‍♂️

A manager who has experience in this league and getting out of it with a tiny club with a tiny ground and a tiny budget. Of course they are always going to struggle in the championship.
He's now manager of a Bigger club with bigger Stadium and soon a bigger budget.
Excitement is probably a strong word, for me, It's a good appointment.

I remember how utterly disenchanted I was at the time with the appointments of Brian Clough and, three decades later, Jim Smith.
"Not big enough for Derby County" went through my mind over both OBE and TBE.
The same thoughts now.
Same results please.
 

Sadly, I got that too. A good coach, a decent tactician - at times, but the fundamentals of management are getting the best out of all your players on a consistent basis. Some employ brutality, shock tactics, some use good cop bad cop, but ultimately you've got to motivate players on a regular basis.

Clever analysis, the professeur approach, may work at the highest level, but at the Championship level and below, it mostly works at managing everyone individually, carrot and stick in equal measure. We have the tools in our playing staff, we need someone to orchestrate them like a conductor.

That's management at our level.

We march on PP and demand Rosenior is reinstated. Can't believe our owner would have the sense to appoint an interim manager whilst he assessed the whole club, then decide a new approach would be best. Everyone is envious of our relentless pursuit to do the same thing over and over again in our excellent 3 in 30+ away wins.
I will trust our owner and not immediately herald him the new Mel because he does something bold.

Yes, there seems to be plenty of fans who don't know the meaning of the word 'interim'. Maybe Clowes has accessed the situation we're in and the way things are going and decided to choose a different type of manager.

I have to disagree. Hourihane needs to play further forward, maybe as a No:10. He seems to be a luxury player who disappears  for long periods in a game but who nevertheless will pop up with the odd goal or assist. Bird and Knight in the centre of midfield with one of Sibley, McGoldrick or Hourihane in the No:10 role would be our strongest midfield lineup.

THIS.
3 wins in 36 away games.
And at no point in any of them as he said, maybe we should approach these in a different way.
No, we'll just keep doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results 

That is one scary statistic. 

Totally agree apart from the Bird bit he had a off day but that boy is quality.
