    Would I enjoy going for a pint with Warne? I think so. 
     
    Do I enjoy some of this football? Nope. 
     
    You’d like to think people can see past some of the performances over the last 2 years when judging his character. He seems like a genuinely decent bloke.

    Just a reminder that Jake Rooney will be back next season, is still under contract, and will be a year stronger.

    IlsonDerby reacted to G STAR RAM in Stephen Pearce on Radio Derby 6pm Tuesday   
    Well the last time I remember him saying it was at the Nunsfield House fans forum in January 2019.
    At that point in time it was true what he was saying. 
    The ground sale and amortisation method had both been agreed with the EFL by this point.
    I'm not sure we can hold it against Pearce that we subsequently failed FFP based on the EFL backtracking on their agreement and retrospectively changing the rules.
    I can confidently say I'm not in danger of defaulting on my mortgage payments, however, if the BoE raised the interest rates up to 20% I would.

    Helps if your gaffer doesn't humiliate you and then throw you under the bus for good measure. It was clear for all to see that the lad had ability, least for those who cared to look, but at the same time, the club were under the cosh financially speaking and with Rooney's assessment clear, a decision was made. Bad times, hopefully never to be repeated.

    This is revisionism. At times we over played it but it was abysmal finishing which ultimately cost us under Rosenior. You stick this seasons Collins into that side rather than the Collins from the start of last season and we’d have probably been fourth or higher by the time Warne got the job.

    IlsonDerby reacted to Bris Vegas in Paul Warne   
    I can say with certainty because he isn’t a good coach. He could get us up if we had the best set of players in the Championship, but that is never going to happen without significant investment and smart recruitment.
    Warne isn’t any better than say Tony Mowbray.
    And Tony Mowbray couldn’t get over the line with Blackburn or Sunderland - teams with better players than us.
    So we have a squad with less quality than Blackburn managed by a coach who isn’t as good as Tony Mowbray. Why on earth would anyone fancy Warne to get us up to the Premier League.
    We will be wasting our time with him in the Championship.

    Football matches last the best part of 100 minutes. Our goals combined took about 8 seconds to score. 
     
    It isn’t weird of fans to focus on the other 99 minutes of the match otherwise why not just switch on the highlights an hour after it’s finished? 
     
    It’s frankly ridiculous to suggest they were doing pointless passes.
     
    They were getting it through the lines well but didn’t have the quality to do anything with it.
     
    Remember the difference in the first half is Max Bird wonderfully dribbling past 4 players before pinging it in from 20 yards. They crafted a well worked opportunity for a shot from 20 yards out and it came back off the post. 
     
    I enjoyed the win but to say Exeter weren’t playing good football is just disingenuous. With better players that type of performance gives us a hell of a lot of problems. Luckily for us we have better players as you’d expect with our budget.

    Wasn’t he just asked what chances they created with the passing? 
     
    Can’t believe how hard it is for some of our fans to admit that Exeter played nice football and did create decent opportunities against us just because we play dull (albeit effective) football.

    They created only 2 shots on target against arguably the best defence in the division… 
     
    Against lesser defences there’d be more coming from that football.

    Thinks it’s wrong to say we didn’t deserve the win. We did. 
     
    3-0 probably flattered us as contrary to what some on here would have you believe they didn’t ‘pass without creating owt’. They had a number of good chances. We had more good chances. 
     
    I guess when it comes down to it us having better players mattered when it came to those chances and it led to an enjoyable performance.

    I think ultimately due to the NDAs we’ll never know how much SP just accepted what Mel was doing vs whether he pushed back. 
     
    Think the amortisation stuff is a bit harsh to beat him with. He found a loophole within the rules at the time and exploited it as many curly haired prats from Tyneside have done with tax losses previously. 
     
    I also think unless he knew that Mel was planning on stopping funding us and placing us into admin that he was working within the budget set by the owner. 
     
    I just can’t imagine DC keeping him around if he was guilty of anything really bad.
