    Beetle got a reaction from Ramarena in Warne's managerial start at Rotherham (it wasn't very good)   
    I'm not sure we've seen these players play some very good football. I can't remember when we were last a consistent goal threat, we have certainly kept the ball well over the last couple of years or so. We've not played exciting attacking football for some time now.

    From what I've seen / heard from Paul Warne so far I like. He is telling us it is not good enough, which we can all see.
    Although the football has not been great to watch I feel we are not as long ball as some people believe so I'm not buying into this total change of philosophy that people are eluding to.
    We certainly move the ball faster and seem to use the channels more instead of waiting to work the ball out very wide every time. Subsequently we will be more of a threat, the away form already shows that.
    I think good things are coming but it may be 18 months away yet due to us not being able to buy anyone. It's great to sit in Pride Park and know I can still come in 18 months time, maybe we might even have real ale / decent bottled beer at the ground by then ?

    Seems like a bad decision to me. Shame if the pay off pushes them over ffp

    Why does it need to grow?
    Because people like him have overspent.
    Football needs to shrink, not grow.

    Beetle got a reaction from MickD in Paul Warne appointed as Head Coach   
    If we can't buy players I don't see how we can buy a manager either.
    Hopefully this is nonsense.

    Really looking forward to going to the match today with my boys. This is what it's all about. Without David Clowes stepping in it wouldn't be happening. Thank you very much Mr Clowes?

    Beetle got a reaction from jimtastic56 in Should derby play 2 upfront on saturday at Charlton   
    The problem we had last year, and it seems to me this year, is the system we play only seems to get one person in the box when we cross. This means a lack of goal threat, we need that fixing otherwise there is no point working the ball wide to get crosses in.

    I thought we couldn't sack anyone without paying off their contract. So Rooney will surely only go if he quits or is wanted by another club.

    Beetle got a reaction from hintonsboots in The Administration Thread   
    That's what I don't get. What's the difference between paying rent to the current owners and paying rent to the council?
    And for crying out load why wasn't this discussed months ago with the bidders

    Beetle reacted to Geriatram in A very sad post   
    My friend has not long left of his life, He has terminal cancer and has maybe only weeks to live.  He had his first season ticket when he came out of the army in the mid fifties, and has had it every season since, and then when he married in 1963 his wife had one too, they never missed a home match, but then covid came along and they have not been again. We have a mutual friend who lives in the USA he is in the UK this week end and is taking my friend to what is likely to be his last match ever. I'm just hoping if there are any protests it wont affect the match. So please spare a thought or a prayer if your so minded on Saturday. I wont say his name as he hated social media as much as he loved the Rams. So UP THE RAMS  P will be thinking of you.
