Mark Warburton would be my choice his Brentford team played lovely attacking football he was big part of West Ham’s coaching staff last season and think he has a point to prove …that’s why he left them as he wants to get back into management very good coach and can work on a budget 

Just seen Madley in a pub in Barnsley. Having a pint with Toby Tyke. Wearing full Barnsley kit, cleaning his red cards, and he was practicing how to write "Mendez-Laing" in a little black book. On the dart board was a ram.
Make of that what you will.

The glorious rendition of 'Fatty, Fatty what's the score' as the final whistle blew was a joy to behold.  I know its childish but i loved it. 

The problem is 3 letters. 1 begins with E last one begins with L. 

To be fair, I wouldn’t expect the EFL to have too much sympathy with the fact that we’ve not got any fit strikers nor would I expect Gayle to be too interested in a ‘week to week’ contract if other clubs have made him an offer given he could be “let go” once Washington and Waghorn are back.
I reckon our best hope is they allow a little flexibility to our business plan if we can prove we’re doing better financially than the plan originally forecast.

It may be nothing to do with your height....

This has to be the setup. Very surprised Elder starts over Sibley. 

It would and of course it's inevitable that at some point, he calls time. Next season though, I'd be pretty certain that if Warne's still here, Fozzy will be too. Warne was laughing in an interview recently at how a succession of Derby managers, including himself, have brought in players to replace Fozz and one by one, 'he's seen them all off. All of them'. It's funny because it's true and I'd be happy to see him getting another year. I think with Fozzy, you kind of know that it'll be him that tells us when it's too much work, not the other way around.

If things aren’t going well  tommorow , can we stay with the team ? Not for first 15 minutes till the beer wears off , and not on the concourse after 30 minutes . But for 90 + minutes. COYR 

I'm thinking it's a case of 'many hands make light work' as someone's got to carry all Steve Evans' halftime pies to Derby, after all.  

It's all ok, just had a kick around with Mr Collins in the joiners car park, he is so sharp and ready for tomorrow. Got him down to score the perfect hat-rick tomorrow, header, left foot, right foot finishes, to keep us in 2nd place with a 3-0 Rams victory. Once A Ram Always A Ram. 

I've been told the scan has been held up, Collins was in the A&E yesterday at Derby General, He was sent home after a 23 hour wait and told to come back Saturday morning when the Scan machine will be operating again ...lets hope they can rush the resulting scan through 👍

We were top of the league after the first game of 18/19 season.
We played on the Friday night.

Its a good point you're making but that's the difference between honesty and deceit isn't it? You could lie/deceive to try get that extra 1% chance you mentioned or you can be honest, have morals and stick to your principles. Warne has chosen the latter and that's commendable, fatty has chosen the former and that's why he's a dislikable p****.

Our problem is that our home fans - absolutely rightly - would not be happy with 30% possession at home in a third division game

This is it for me if we somehow go up this season playing like this then next season we are in a relegation battle just like Rotherham always are.

This train of thought that we are struggling to play good football because League One football is poor and the opposition drag us down to their level is just a complete cop out for poor coaching.
Do you think if Leicester were in League One they’d suddenly struggle to play football too? Or do you think they would just play how they are in the Championship and batter everyone 5-0?
You can’t use the opposition as an excuse for playing crap football. That is on our manager and coaches.

Not in the best of taste given that Bird's dad died a couple of seasons ago.

That's evidence of just how poor this division is. Our football has been consistently poor and it's still enough to get through most of the dross in this division bar two or three exceptions. That won't be the case if we go up.

if you want to put that narrative on it then ok.
However, we are 2nd (or 3rd) in the league realistically because the league has been so poor this season. In any normal season we would absolutely not be. The target for the season was automatic promotion (as stated by warne in pre-season) and if we are only just hanging on to that playing against this level of opposition, what chance do we have if we go up to the championship? Where is the long term planning? What are we building towards? I still don't even know what our team is, what's the identity?

I can honestly say I’ve enjoyed watching relegation battles over the years than this Gash. 😢
