    Rampant got a reaction from Zag zig in Bristol Rovers (A) Sat 15th April   
    I've just watched the penalty decision over and over again and it looks a correct decision every time tbh. White wasn't strong enough - again - and in going to ground he wipes out the Rovers player. 
    What a dismal performance again. Wildsmith's timewasting is pathetic, Knight is regressing badly and Collins offers nothing. Nowt. We'd be much improved just with Didzy up top and giving Collins' shirt to someone else. Anyone else. 
    The tippy tappy at the back we saw under Cocu, Rooney and Rosenior is something I can do without again but the idea then was to play attractive football when we got it forward too. This long ball guff, completely nullifying Hourihane and Bird's strengths, is awful to watch.

    Agree with the posts above by @angieram, @Anag Ram and @RoyMac5. 
    Picking up on something @angieram touches on, the style of play is hard to fathom and equally difficult to enthuse about. Why have Hourihane, Bird and Didzy in a L1 side and play in a predominantly direct fashion?

    This is just stunningly depressing.
    And there isn't even any mention of Birdy and Sibs, they are soooo being wasted.

    Maybe the best way to motivate your players to perform on a Saturday is not to give an interview on the Friday saying the following: 
     
    "It is no hidden fact that I like 3-5-2. I like to have two players in every position. I need two wing-backs. And I'll obviously get Tom Barkhuizen and Nat Mendez-Laing fitter, so they can do it more.
    "But they need help. We need centre-backs, we need centre forwards, we need a lot, really. That's the truth."
    There are a number of players out on that pitch (and sitting as underused subs) who either already know they aren't part of Warne's 3-5-2 plans or don't want to be. It showed today.
    As a fan at every away game this season, I'm hearing a lot more discontent in the stands than I'm reading on here. We do the hard miles every week, pay out a shed-load of money and are bemused by what we're trying to acheive at the moment. There's no pattern, no cohesion and little to give us heart. I think we're entitled to criticise when it's due.
    We sang our socks off in that second half as we wanted to get those lads over the line for what would have been a very undeserved victory. They looked disappointed and a bit sheepish when they came over to us at the end. Some of them didn't come over at all. I didn't notice Warne at all but I left about ten minutes after the end.
    We're rapidly losing that togetherness that saw us through the toughest of times last year. Makes me feel sad.

    Keep pointing it out - I've tried too - but reason, logic and rational thinking free from bias aren't strong suits of conspiracy theorists, whether it concerns moon landings, covid-19 or Derby County. 
    It's pathetic. It also reflects poorly on us as an entire fanbase, however unfair that may be.
    Ideally we'd have a sub-forum where those who genuinely think the EFL, referees, assistant referees, fourth officials, opposition ball boys, Sky Sports, Sky Sports commentators, Sky Sports guests, every national newspaper and journalist etc are actively persuing an anti-Derby County agenda can dwell and post their juvenile nonsense. 
    That way they can do what conspiracy theorists do and back one another's ill-considered opinion up as much as they wish whilst leaving us adults to enjoy the forum like we used to.

    Considering the EFL are the governing body representing the 72 non-PL clubs, they have proved themselves to be an inept, weak, self-serving organisation who far too often have failed to provide sound guidance and support to their members when it has been needed. But corrupt and dishonest? Not in my opinion and the nonsensical chanting of f*** the EFL every time a refereeing decision goes against us just continues to cause further embarrassment to our Club - our owner is trying to repair our relationship with the EFL following the disastrous stewardship of Morris and must squirm in his seat everytime it happens.
    For all their faults the EFL do not appoint the officials so I fail to see how they can influence their performance - weak refereeing is rife throughout all levels of English football and despite what should have been a welcoming of VAR, it has been ridiculed because those making the decisions are, more often than not, the same incompetent officials.
