    ramsbottom got a reaction from Mucker1884 in DERBY COUNTY FANS FORUM: MARCH 2024   
    if that is to occur we need a GIF of it to be pinned to the front page of the forum, so certain members' piss can be boiled every time they log in.  Admin, make it happen 👍

    ramsbottom got a reaction from Hector was the best in Paul Warne   
    I was going to reply to that but I lost the will to live, thinking I'd get another round of nonsense.  But seeing as you've asked it, i'd say - 
    Wildsmith, Wilson, Ward, Cashin, Nelson, Thompson, Sibley (at LWB) & NML would be consistent.  Elder maybe, and at a push Hourihanne if the opposition aren't particularly athletic in the middle of the park.
    I'm about as far from religious as you could possibly get but, amen...

    You're right.
    But now he'll more than likely use that as an excuse to bash Warne's recruitment 🙄

    A more advanced level of football that, for example, Bolton play??
    To paraphrase Woody Harrelson in White Men Can’t Jump, would you rather look good & lose, than look bad and win?? 
    This isn’t figure skating, you don’t get extra points for style.
    I’ve just been reading through Don Dietrich’s tweets from the fans forum and Warne has said that if we were to go up, the playing staff will have to change considerably.  That tells me he knows what’s required for this team to improve. And maybe play a better brand of football.

    TBF Ward is very much like Beckham was.  Get a yard then ping it in, and their left sided players didn't give him much space in the 1st half.  Therefore Warne made the change and Wilson being more of a dribbler was able to get at them a lot more effectively.  His goal came from a corner he himself won by going at their left back.
    My point is our head coach identified a problem, and solved it.
    I'd love for us to be like the Mac 1 era and blow teams out the water with free flowing, passing football, but let's remember that even Mac 2 failed to recreate that, and had no Plan B.  Here we have a coach who's had Plans A through to H, and some fans still think he's just a PE teacher who just shouts "Hoof it" at every game.  Is he perfect?  No.  Has he made mistakes?  Yes.  Overall is he doing a good job of getting us into a position whereby we could escape this league?  Yes.  Therefore he's well on target to reach the targets his employer set him...

    The players changed, the tactics did not...
    He admitted in the Radio Derby interview that he got his initial set up wrong, as he wanted to impose the game we'd been playing since the Charlton defeat on them, but that didn't work, so he changed it.  I can imagine that he would've done exactly the same at half time, but Gayle being forced off gave him the opportunity to do it sooner.  And as soon as he did, we were the better side for the rest of the half.
    At 0-0 Bolton it was evens, Bolton had the better first 15 of either half but, funnily enough after both their 2 (and only) big chances we were more than a match for them.  
    We know you don't like Warne as a man, he's not to everyone's tastes, but give him some credit for the job he's done since Shrewsbury.  Or would you rather we lost every game til the end of the season, just to prove your point??
