Disappointing. Very lucky to get the draw, we didn’t deserve anything out of that match. Performance was downright pathetic frankly, this is a local Derby, one of the biggest games of the season with all the pride riding on it, and we didn’t look up for the fight at all. A weak showing, lacking in any sort of energy, effort and desire - for the umpteenth time in a row against Forest. Why can’t we get up for these matches anymore?! This run is getting embarrassing.
Despite the brilliance from Kazim-Richards, I’m left fuming, and I hope Rooney is too. You’ve got to be winning games like this, at home against your local rivals, especially with some of the games we have coming up. Handed Rotherham the chance to make some ground up against an out of form Reading tomorrow now. Massive amount to work on in training now before the game against Cardiff - play like that against them and we’ll get battered. Passing was truly truly woeful, can barely believe they were professional footballers out there with the number of basic passes they missed. Defence was unusually disorganised, the attacking movement was non-existent, and once again we were so so so wasteful with the chances we did create. Need so much more quality all over the pitch if we’re going to have a chance mid-week. McCarthy and Cardiff will walk all over us if we play with that lack of commitment again. Absolutely terrible.

A MOM performance from this seasons likely player of the season......

Much deserved, most underrated over the young talents we have

Loan? Hes out of contract 

He didn't get injured either 🕺

I'm playing in an 8 a side cricket charity tournament on sunday and a little bird has mentioned ed dawes is playing. Would anyone like me to whistle a few past his tabs?

he couldn't pass forward either on a regular basis lol 

He's definitely put the Will Hughes comparisons to rest.
Hughes couldn't score.

Watching it now. Sheen is amazing.

Derby and Forest to merge as the A52s, running out to Love Shack.

Although it feels like we are close(ish) again we are just one defeat or even a draw away from being impossible again. It's just highly improbable but not impossible and allows the season to continue a little longer.
We have to beat Millwall IMO or it's over.

I think most fans are coming around to appreciate what a good acquisition Philip Cocu is for DCFC. 

Do you still not see it?
Do you still not get what Cocu is building? And how he's doing it?
Every match thread, it's a race to see who can whinge about the team selection first.
Tonight was no different.... "How are we going to beat the fifth best team in the country without Davies in central defence and Malone amongst the substitutes?"
The youngsters were brilliant tonight and will learn so much from their experience.
Some people just like to complain. I get that. But Cocu is establishing a real foundation here, he's looking long term. He will build a successful Derby County team and sustain that, over years, by using the academy to its fullest.
Do you not want to embrace that?
Do you not want to ride the wave of the next golden period in this great club's glorious history?
Don't miss out. Support Cocu. Support the kids. Support the team. Support the club.
COYR 🐏 Come on Cocu🐏

This is the greatest pass I think I've ever seen live.
 

Did anyone else sign the Book of Remembrance Saturday? It was in the fan park tent. I did it on behalf of my fellow Ipswich Rams. There's a lot of us these days.
 
 

O....M....G....  Mel only goes and rhymes with EFL!!!
Tomorrows gonna be a hoot!!  🤣
 
EIEIEIO
Off to duck the EFL we go.
When we're in the courtroom, this is what we'll sing...
We are Derby, We are Derby, Morris is our king!
 
We love Uncle Mel,
We love Uncle Mel,
We love Uncle Mel, Duck the EFL, we love Uncle Mel.
(To the Duck the EFL tune)
 
He's Bald.  He's Mel.  He'll duck the EFL. Uncle Mel, Uncle Mel.
(To the tune of He's fat, he's round, he can't get off the ground, Kenny Burns, Kenny Burns)
 
 

Hoping for round after round of anti EFL chants tomorrow. 

I know this thread died a while ago, and I don’t want to make another one as we have tons of Cocu threads.
Whether you have trust in him or not, This man deserves all the credit in the world.
The POO he has had to put up with in his 6 months in charge, coming in late, going on a pre-season tour that was solely for Frank Lampards benefit, to Lampostgate, to his captain being sacked, to the delay of investment, lack of opportunity for a signing he has wanted in this window, to now, and he’s still here. This man truly deserves all the praise possible.
A humble guy, who wants the best for this club, having to put up with so much crap.
Having a squad full of half arsed poor players, settling for his 3rd choice for a winger, pato, in summer, and many more things he’s had to deal with, alongside the pressure of 25,000+ fans every week, with the disgruntled booing him, calling for his head.
I seriously hope that our fans can stick by him through this, nothing in this whole situation is his fault, and the last thing we should do is turn on him and the lads.
I hope saturday our fans are more vocal than ever, showing our praise and support for Cocu, Scheepers, VDW, and the rest.
