Fleetwood could put out a walking football over 60s team and outpace that team. 

No they couldn’t.

                           Vickers

Nelson     Cashin      Forsyth     Elder

                          Bird (Smith if Bird not fit)

            Thompson           Hourihane

            NML                      Waghorn

                           Collins

4-3-3

We clearly cannot play three at the back with the players we have. He had ample opportunities to change tonight but persisted trying to shoehorn substitutions into a 3-5-2, that looked like 3-6-1 for most of the game, if he cannot see it doesn’t work, at least for now , then he is on borrowed time.

Hopefully not by the Clubs we offer good prices to ourselves.

I think there are usually reciprocal agreements in place where prices are more modest, but we will see!

Pretty sure only Barnsley officially reciprocated , £20.

The 180° mood swing barometer is standard(and acceptable ) behaviour for a football fan i thought !

I think Collins would play better if he sounded like harrison ford. And Bird should try talking like the hard guy off Ted Lasso

Roy Kent 😂

I agree, but did you see the back 5 first half? I only saw the goals on Sky Sports News but the defending was atrocious.

Atrocious is being kind, we should have been 5 down at HT. Bradley reminds me of Albantosa and seems incapable of jumping to win a header.

I still think the club is too big for him & his coaching staff. Its not arrogance. You cant play the type of Rotherham football at Derby in league one. It just screams armature.

Regardless if playing staff & style etc an experienced or half decent manager gets us out of this division.

I know we dont have the same playing staff as Wednesday last year & i know they went up in the end but they were held back by moore & thats thhe reason he was sacked after promotion.

 

We can play the type of football that got Rotherham promoted, as long as we have the players to do it

If it does carry on like this I can see this getting called off

Only if the surrounding areas become dangerous, pitch will be fine. I can guarantee we will still water it !

The forecasts I look at say heavy rain! I like this one! What’s it called, I’m gonna base my expectations on it!

WeatherBug 

Weather should be reasonable in the two hours before the game.

It will be a decent crowd.

Half full. I am hopeful of top two. However, my biggest concern is how deep we defend as a team when other teams have the ball for periods. We seem to have a gap from the 18yard line to 30yards with everyone seemingly defending just outside the box. Teams have too much of the ball without real challenges and are invited to take shots or ping the ball in the box. This i think will cost us goals. Otherwise i think we have decent players now, and we will be capable of top two.

I really don’t know where they keep finding them from but it’s back up to 761 now.

Because the tickets shown online are not always all of the available tickets.

@Big Trav hinted at him a while ago, 

Definitely worth a gamble in my opinion as well. Hard worker who would fit Warne’s style and decent with the ball at his feet. @Big Trav

Has anyone mentioned Dobra at chesterfield?

They have started to open up some of the restricted view seats now with only about 1,300 tickets left.

1300 currently made available to book online.

Really? That surprises me with it being our only London game last season.

We took about 3100, and we had less then 100 tickets not sold, but it was not a sell out.

As non one else has posted yet I thought I would 🙂 Burton tickets secured, approx 600 left now.

A mention for Tony Dorigo who did well in the short time he was here. 

Dorigo’s pace had gone when he joined us and was bang average.

I’m surprised at some of the negative comments in this thread. We played well in spells, but (in my opinion ) I thought Stoke were very poor and I will be in a bottom six battle I think for the upcoming season. We sit too deep at times but we looked decent enough, reasonably good goals today i thought.
