    I am humble and can accept we may have had the rub of the green on 9 occasions but then again as they say you make your own luck, especially over 46 games, anyway I am loving it and feel very good and content this morning., probably not as good as when Craig Bryson scored a hatrick against notts forrist in the 5-0 thrashing.
    Let's hope this lucky streak continues. Up the mighty Rams.

    From what the Peterborough fans said when we signed him, he mostly played as a winger for them, and when he did play at wingback he wasn't as good.  It doesn't really matter though where he played for them though - he's clearly not good enough defensively to play wingback IMO.  And it's the same with Wilson - AFAIK he did play there for them, but he's not good enough defensively to play wingback every week for a team that wants to be getting promoted from this league.  It's like describing Louis Sibley as a wingback by trade because he's played there a bunch of times for us - he clearly isn't one either.  NML and Barkhuizen both played as wingbacks at their previous clubs  - again they clearly aren't wingbacks.
    If you want to play wingbacks, you *have* to have players that can play that position properly - it's the most important part of that setup - and if you don't have them you are going to get killed on one side of the game or the other (defensively or offensively).  There will be games where you can get away with it (like yesterday), but you can't get away with it every game if you want to be winning things.

    P.G Wodehouse match report.
    Ah, what a delightful spectacle unfolded at Pride Park! A veritable symphony of footballing finesse, where the dashing Derby County lads displayed a masterclass in the art of the beautiful game. With a flick of his coiffed locks, Sibbo graced the pitch with his goal-scoring prowess, each strike a testament to his sartorial elegance. And who could overlook the Padel maestro Gayle, whose header soared through the air like a swan taking flight, leaving the poor Port Vale defence in disarray.  

    But it was not just in attack where the Rams shone; oh no, their defensive acumen was equally sublime. Cashin, a veritable bastion of impregnability, rebuffed his opponents' advances with the ease of a vegetarian plucking a stray caterpillar from his salad.
    And let us not forget the spirited Sonny, whose exuberant arm-waving would have put even the most robust of policemen on point duty to shame.
    Under the astute guidance of Warne, the tactical maestro with a bobble hat perched jauntily atop his brow, Derby County danced their way to victory, leaving their opponents in awe. And amidst the jubilation, let us extend a hearty commendation to Ebou Adams, whose display on the field was reminiscent of the legendary Mick McManus himself. Truly, it was a day to remember, where the spirit of camaraderie and sporting excellence reigned supreme.

    Well I'll tell you what boys and girls, I'm happy with those 3 points, don't know about you. 
    Nice of Forest to concede so late as well, come on Luton!

    I do see what everyone’s saying, that’s my point, there can’t even be a calm objective chat about how we might like to see the side line up before the game tomorrow without people making their thoughts on Warne repeatedly known.
    I have long since accepted Warne is the manager, posters who can’t accept that repeatedly and REPEATEDLY shouting about him and his approach across every thread isn’t changing that fact, it just makes the forum pretty much unreadable. There can’t be any dialogue without people jumping in with digs about Warne, it’s pretty much an echo chamber of the same comments on here at the moment regardless of what the thread is supposed to be about. 

    Also my earlier post says I want us set up to have a go and win comfortably. I don’t think it’s how Warne will set us up but it’s sometimes just nice trying to discuss the team and the prospects for tomorrow without the negativity.

    My opinion is the manager is doing a great job with with a squad of free transfers put together in a short space of time compared to some other clubs that have been able to spend money over a longer period of time.
    Keep it going, up the Rams.

    Yes the reality is when we get a load of free transfers at league one level the quality will be league one standard without the quality everyone wants.
    It is quite remarkable we are in second place when other clubs below us have spent some reasonable sums for players. So well done to the coaching and recruitment staff so far.

    We will sort it because of the great support DCFC get which will allow us to invest in better quality players going forward which will result in being overrun for less than 20 mins in the future. Hope this helps.

    Could do with Pearce and Thomas interviewed about the transfer window.
    Be interesting to hear what they had to say. Could radio Derby get on to it.
    This is what the fans really want to know.

    Maybe he knows players at Derby and they told him the fans often behave like spoilt babies, even when in the hunt for automatic places - who knows?

    How many points are we better off this season than last? Doesn't that increase alone validate the calls of patience?
    I'm tempted to respond to these ''same issues'' that keep cropping up by mentioning the mitigating circumstances he's faced- very tight finances and inability to buy the players he wants. He's rebuilding a club without being able to pay transfer fees (yet). So if we're lacking a body in midfield (which seems to be the issue of the day), then couldn't it be argued he's likely to be aware of that, but simply isn't in a position to rectify it with the resources currently at his disposal?

    Posh fans all say the same….he’s a wing back not a traditional right back … he can’t defend…. He’s not a good tackler and constantly mistimes challenges - reminds me of Sibley in that regard…
    All the Posh say he had a habit of giving away penalties..

    I think if Warne is sticking with the 4-4-2/4-4-1-1 we’ve used recently it probably makes sense to put the slightly better defensively Kane Wilson at RB and play Ward ahead of him on the right side of midfield. They could then alternate throughout the match to both offer their respective talents in attack, Ward occasionally whipping in those dangerous crosses, then Wilson taking players on with his mazy dribbling skills!
