Its a disgrace, it didnt work all game and what does warne do f all! None of them should be paid they have let the whole club down! If we go up warne will bring us back down with the lowest points of the championship 

Ha!  Wilson looking around... "s***!  What do I do now?" 🤣

Awwww....there, there, there....have a drink on me

Been impressed with what I've seen of him. Seems a decent blend of physical, hardworking, skillfull and smart. Would take him on a free if we got promoted to  be honest 

This would be the logical approach to some of the recruitment in my opinion, looking at picking up some of the “top” players at this level on frees. Those who have been performing consistently for the teams at the top end of the league and are in the good age bracket of 22-28. 
A quick check on Transfermarkt suggests the likes of Devante Cole (28), Harrison Burrows (22) who is a left sided defender at Posh, Herbie Kane (25) the cm at Barnsley who could all be viable options…..alongside our influx of Scottish internationals 😜 

If Fozzy can do 90 minutes then we’ve got away with this one. If not then we’re in the poo.
 
Neither Wilson or Ward look great at right back and especially in a game of this magnitude. 
 
If it is a back 4 I’d be tempted to go Smith and hope Sibley plays a blinder on the left.

Was anyone else really disappointed with our fans singing the "we're all having a party" chant. Hoped we might be more sympathetic given recent history. Back when blackpool had issues with their owners I remember us showing some solidarity with their fans, yet last night our loud minority seemed to want to act like d********. During our rough period, there was a lot of posts by fans slating the likes of birmingham, cardiff and other fans who chanted about our club dying. Yet last night the exact same shitty song was used by our fans against another team. 
Maybe its because I have some family in reading a close friend who supports them but it all left a bad taste for me. I was a bit embarrassed by those chants...

Yeah bit cringeworthy given we know what it is like.
Also don't particularly like 'Derby are massive everywhere we go'.

I’m guessing it’s a 3-4-2-1?
                Wildsmith
       Nelson   Bradley  Cashin
Nyambe  Smith  Adams  Wilson
                NML   Bird
                    Gayle
Strong looking bench too.

I can't believe anyone claiming to be a Rams fan can openly admit to this!  😲
 
It's like not knowing we beat Forest in the 1903 FA Cup Final by a record 7-0.
It's like not knowing we were formed in 1882.
It's like not knowing our record attendance is 41, 826 v Arsenal.
It's like not knowing Kevin Hector made more penalty saves than any other Derby County Goalkeeper in history.
It's like not knowing our very own Branko Strupar scored the very first Premiership goal of this Millennium, against Reading, in March 2002.
It's like not knowing The Derby County Ram only ever had one eye, three legs, and a rather impressive penis.
It's like not knowing Margaret Thatcher (God rest her soul) officially opened Prime Park Stadium way 25 years ago this week.
 
Dear oh dear... sometimes, I despair, I really do!

Keep it. Yes it's a bit twee but not nearly as bad as some other club songs (Everton take a bow). It's the only thing that gets the whole ground clapping and engaged before kick off. Get the timing right (and don't ambush us with a third verse) and it creates a huge "Derby" right around the ground. 
@CongletonRam wumming that Bloomer is "some dead footballer who no one really knows" shows two things: his/her idiocy and the importance of keeping the song, something that celebrates not only our leading goalscorer of all time, but one of the greatest footballers of his generation. He remains the most successful Derby County player ever.
No-one wants to live in the past, but we should always treasure our heritage, especially a player like him.
