    Which is why it'll be 3421. Mendez-Laing, Barkhuizen, Sibley and a new signing competing in the '2'.

    Collins and 1 or 2 others competing for the CF spot.

    Certainly more appealing 

  2. With the likely formation changing to 532 next season and a clear lack of realistic attacking options in the free agent market, could we potentially fill the front with players we currently have. 

    This formation doesn’t really give our most dangerous attacking players NML and Barkhuizen a position in the team which is a concern for me.

    Could 1 or both be potential striking options ?

    Only recently I remembered how badly that period of administration affected my enjoyment of football. Completely fell out of love with the game. One year one since the club was saved, and I'm feeling much brighter about Derby County and football in general. 

    Administration was horrible and something I hope we never go through again. However, weirdly it has been one of my favourite seasons of football for a long time. The fans, players and manager came together. The atmosphere was the best it’s ever been at PP. Everyone was against us and we played like that too. Some of my favourite memories from the last 5 years or so was from that season. Wba, Fulham, bmouth, sheff U at home. Incredible atmospheres

    Just listened to the interview - we are so, so blessed to have DC as owner of our Club. Never been a fan of Ed Dawes but credit where credit is due - he did well.

    I too have never been a fan of Ed Dawes, but he asked good questions (and got good answers).

     

    Out of interest, why the negative opinion on him ? I don’t understand why he gets so much hate by some of the fan base. He’s a journalist as a job but also a rams fan.

    Come on then, be truthful, who is worried that Warne is struggling to find or convince any decent strikers to sign for us for the coming season. Conor Washington they yell. Prosecution rests its case.

    Not at all. There’s no guarantee that the Washington talk is legit. Rotherham have denied any contact whilst ITK trolls report a deal is done. 
    we have seen that our best 2 signings so far (elder and ward) IMO were complete surprises. Hopefully the Washington talk is a smoke screen for a more popular striker

    Already been suggested on here by others, but surely Sam Smith (Cambridge) is worth a punt?

    Top scorer last season with 14 goals. Right age. Free agent. We need forwards.

    Would much rather us take a gamble on him than pay a fee for, say, Conor Washington.

    14 goals is only 3 more than Collins, who gets heaps of abuse

    Hamer is out of contract at Burton, I haven't seen a new contract for him announced yet. His massive long throw would be a huge asset for us. 

    I hope a club of our ambition sign players for their football ability over their throwing ability 

  8. It’s got to be next week. The club usually tweet spoilers a few days prior to the kit release. We know it’s Umbro still, we now have a kit sponsor, hopefully printing the logos as we speak.

    Simple, their name is spelt R-E-A-D-I-N-G and not D-E-R-B-Y  C-O-U-N-T-Y.😡

    Seriously though, administration is down their owner not pulling the plug and nobody serving a winding up order on the business, although HMRC have set the wheels in motion.

    I get that. But apparently the owner has gone AWOL and isn’t paying the bills. Sounds like pulling the plug
