    Not determined to discredit him? Are you my ex wife's divorce lawyer?
    Most if not all of the ex players said it was Rosenoir who kept speaking to them through the summer and persuaded them to come when higher wages were often available elsewhere.
    Both LR and PW (so far) did the jobs asked of them excellently.
    How hard is that to accept?

    As I said at the time, I had sympathy for Rosenior when he was dismissed because the team was at the start of a transitional season and he was still trying to get his philosophy across to the players. The obvious shortcoming to me was the insistence on playing out from the back, which I felt was both risky and restrictive in making swift transitions from defence to attack and making the most of what pace we did have in the team. Maybe he would have modified that approach over time, we'll never know, but I think it was clear to most that we needed to mix it up more. I didn't envisage that under LR we'd be chasing the top 2 by the end of January, so for me, at the moment, Warne has brought an improvement in form and a clarity and simplicity to our football. After trying his preferred formation, he's shown pragmatism by changing it to suit the players at his disposal. There's been games that have been a tough watch, but gradually we've evolved into a more effective team and the spirit is formidable. 
    Ultimately, there's really nothing to criticise Rosenior for, but I'm certainly happy with the direction that Warne is taking us.

    I think the world of Liam Rosenoir, he did nothing but good for Derby County FC. I wish him all the best at Hull City.
    I think that Paul Warne is doing a great job at Derby.
    It is possible to have both the above opinions.

    Our season was well and truly brought out of it's slumber by a combination of them both.

    The obvious ones are Mount, Tomori, Wilson and Hughes. I would love to see any of those four back here, but if I had to choose one for this current team I'd go for Tomori. A central defence of him and Cashin would be incredible.

    Played a key role in the winner by working hard to keep the ball in play when it would have been much easier to let in roll out. About 3 seconds later the ball was in their net.

    Three threads on the same subject is never enough, when the subject is Chris Martin.
    I don't care if he comes back or not, but I'd love to see a lot more separate threads on it.  ?

    Meh!  What's so special about 1184 anyway?
    Apart from King Henry II encouraging his youngest (and favorite) son John to seize Aquitaine from his brother Richard, and that serious fire damaging Glastonbury Abbey, it was pretty much a rather drab year!  ?
