Let it go. 
The guy hasn't got a bad bone in his body. 

Boo em off if we aren't 4.0 up by halftime.

I think the treatment of Sibley has been poor.
I remember when he started the 4-0 win at Birmingham City just before New Year’s Eve late 2020. He was brilliant as he won the penalty, and tore their defence to shreds. I think he had about five efforts in the first 25 minutes of the game.
He started the subsequent game at Sheffield Wednesday where we were much the better side also but ended up losing 1-0 to a scrappy goal. It was a really unlucky defeat.
Sibley was then dropped. And in came the likes of Patrick Roberts and Lee Gregory. Sibley didn’t start another game until that 4-0 defeat at Cardiff where Rooney threw the towel in before kick off by playing a weakened side. That was in March so Sibley spent 8 weeks or so just warming the bench with the odd late sub appearance.
Sibley then came off the bench in the 2-2 draw at Brentford (coming back from 0-2 down at half-time). He then started the 1-0 defeat at Stoke and the 2-0 win against Luton. Another defeat at Reading and he was dropped, while returning for the Blackburn game where it was 1-1 while he was on and we lost 2-1 after he came off.
Dropped again.
Long story short, it seems Sibley became an obvious player to drop after every defeat, especially away from home. We’d lose on the road and he’d then miss the next five games or so. He clearly needed a strong run in the side, but under Rooney you’d struggle to find a spell where he started more than two consecutive games. 
 

By “often been … red carded” do you in fact mean that he has 0 (unrescinded) red cards in his career? 

Has your head been in the sand for the last couple of years? People are struggling, (especially) young people don't have these savings - More than ever, people are living pay packet to pay packet so they might be able to find £40 a month for a ST but it's no surprise that many don't have a spare few hundred quid.

They've done the direct debits for years, the pinch on the wallet is even tighter and only going to get worse. For some people having a season ticket (while not a neccessary item) is a big boon on their mental health and wellbeing, mine included so splitting the cost up over a direct debit makes sense for those who may be able to afford but would rather budget more carefully, especially in these times of energy prices, fuel and food skyrocketing.

4-4-2
Not just another excuse for playing this, but I like it, huh, huh.
 

Lol

"Slots three and four: Awarded to the two clubs with the highest club coefficients that have not qualified automatically for the Champions League’s league stage, but have qualified either for the Champions League qualification phase or the Europa League/the Europa Conference League (due to start in the 2021/22 season)."
Translation - We need a provision just in case a couple of our big money spinning teams fail to qualify legitimately.
I've said before, I wish the "big" teams would f*** off start their precious super league. The rest of us can go back to a two legged straight knock out tournament with no seeding, the way God intended when they invented football. Just imagine, all the glory hunters who spend all day on twitter and never actually go to games would go with them. All the yanks would go, all the oil money, all the celebrity obsessed Messi/Ronaldo stans. They'd go back to not knowing our league existed. It would be pure bliss.

It's an absolute mess?

"This evolved format will still keep alive the dream of any team in Europe to participate in the UEFA Champions League...." of course it does....what a bunch of self-serving total ossers.....

Bryson scored a decent amount of goals though, great ones too. Knight may go on to do that, but as others have pointed out, his main attribute is his engine. I think a few million would help us to get a decent striker when we already have a good midfield.

Tricky one for me. I've never quite seen what others seem to see. Yes I know all about the 'engine', but other than that? He doesn't really control midfield, doesn't really play killer passes, doesn't score big numbers, doesn't make too many killer runs. He's good at everything but not particularly brilliant at anything. I'm not sure he's improving much (or likely to) either. 
I felt a bit like this with Hendrick - another very good young player who I wasn't that fussed about losing and whose post-Derby career went pretty much as I expected. Continued to do lots of things well and nothing brilliantly, became a squad player at lower Premier League level. 
Obviously at League One level Knight would be a huge asset and I don't particularly want to lose him. But in our current circumstances he definitely has a price. He's not irreplaceable. 

One thing this period has taught us, us fans can influence matches at Pride Park. We have given the team proper undying support on the pitch, in 52 years I can't remember such an atmosphere of blind faith and no criticism. Let us all try to keep that going, even when matches are going against us.
The players were lifted by this support, they weren't nervous about making a misplaced pass and that gave them the confidence to perform above their supposed ability.
You didn't hear booing and murmers of discontent at PP last season, even the likes of Man City and Liverpool fans voiced their discontent on televised games at times last season.
So let us create our own brand of superfan and let it become known that Derby fans will back their team through thick and thin.

I'm glad I spent it with Q....

If anyone wants to pass 30 seconds
 

Never liked him.

It's June now, march is ages away.

What part of his personality has made you draw that conclusion. He was released by his previous 2 clubs. He didn't choose to leave, he was told he wasn't good enough and told to leave.
Why bling? Where has that come from? Or are we a sun journalist writing about Sterling?

How it feels coming onto a League One clubs forum..
