    Haven't got used to Warne yet. Don't think that post-match interview really did anyone any good. Just weird things to say that can't possibly come to good

    Good. Stearman was looking after him a fair bit though and I don't know if right back suits him. It was a bit unorthodox, Stearman and him were sort of taking turns covering the right side sometimes, swapping roles.
    But he did what he needed to most of the time. Key thing for a player like him is that he takes something away from any and all game experience he gets, which is what he does. Learning and developing well

    Yes I've been saying the exact same about him ever since I first saw him play. Plays with his head down and shoulders slumped. He doesn't strike me as a supremely confident lad but he should be.
    Obviously the functional benefits speak for themselves in terms of if he looks up he has a better view of whats happening around him etc. But thats not all. If he exuded a bit more confidence in his body language it would make a great deal of difference in terms of the space he would get to make his magic. Max Bird suffered a similar problem when he was a few years younger

    Honestly I'm not a Warne critic, but he does have a habit of saying really odd things.
    He said he was disappointed with aspects of today, the game was too open, Torquay could have scored 3 etc. Couldn't really bring himself to compliment the performance very much. Said he has a lot of over 30s, and a lot of u21s, and that 22-28 is the peak age to play which he doesn't have many of. Said the Torquay fans were great. Mark Chapman said "the Derby fans were great too though". He says "oh yeah of course, good banter tonight as it should be. But it's easier to be supportive when you're winning. Torquay were losing. That's why I respect them"
    Just...why do you need to say that mate? Why criticise the performance? By all means be a perfectionist, but come on, that's such a Nigel Clough thing to say! ?
    Like I said, I'm just not used to the way he is. Football does the talking in terms of his ability as a manager and we've just won 5-0 so no issue there. He just has me scratching my head when I hear him speak

    I agree with tombo - Warne comes across a little bit .. I’m not sure of the word .. 
    put it this way I’m trying to like him. Anyone with a ram on his chest I’ll support but I’m having to put effort into kind of liking him. 
     
    that’s not to say I want him to be cliched and churn out the same old .. I’m just sharing my view and supporting someone who seems to have the same view.

    No, I like him being honest. I don't think he was honest enough. He seemed to be consciously restricting his praise
    He won the game, don't overthink it, just enjoy it!

    Making the home advantage count I think. We've made the pitch feel huge and Torquay can't help but leave us space

    Thrilled for Thompson also. Not been having his best season but he's had a storming first 45 tonight. We all know he has phenomenal ability. Vision and range of passing is top notch. Just needs more to his all around game
