This will potentially be one of those difficult games... I'd imagine,given their run of form that that they will primarily put to stop the rot and the best way to do that against us is to just put everyman behind the ball and look to frustrate us. This tactic is always out worst nightmare as we struggle to combat these s**those tactics.

Cheers sparkle ✨👍👍

It's my birthday today and this is turning out to be a lovely present,cheers Paul warne and the boys,I am very happy 😁

Just goes to prove Clough jnr was good at collecting the ingredients but was a below par chef!

What's the bass like in there uttoxram? Used to enjoy proper a proper pint from the old bass museum at Burton,after work,back in the day but I've not tried it since the place closed down.

Professional win that. Excellent defending and well managed by warne to be fair. Onwards and upwards COYR!

Look at that,a striker in the right place at the right time and with sublime composure.... Just what we have been missing. Get in JJ!!!

Lots of endeavour here and opportunities but lacking a bloody decent number 9 to actually do something with the ball when it drops to them. Waggy on for the donkey please.

His touches were still sublime but he wasn't the focal point of their attack which,as we know,he needs to be. Still scored a glancing header out of nothing which is something none of our current centre forwards are capable of..... Cashin did a very good job of looking after him tho today and clearly got under his skin as Chrissie threw him to the ground at one point for his efforts 😁 I'd still have him over any of our current cf's even if he's slower than a slow thing...but running around a lot was never his thing,being in the right place at the right time was.

Just got in... First half was deadly,deadly dull with Collins returning to his party trick of being in the wrong time and the wrong place for the majority of it.... Second half much better,the game opened up and Mendez,again was the difference. In the end I was very happy....I saw Chris Martin again score a cracking goal at pride park and we still won the game! It's all bleeding coming together... somehow. COYR!

Definitely not...

It cheers some of the fan base on here up,so it's not all bad.

It's going to be one them!

Quite surprised by the strong squad but in sure the academy will be kicking in later if we go well.

Just got back in. Great game today,we never left them alone and their lack of chances or opportunities was the result of that. Great game for collo but fozzy was my man of the match,he made some superb, brilliantly timed challenges and scored a lovely goal (or was it 2?) That game would have pleased warne very much i suspect as it seemed to contain all of the qualities he wants from the team,hard work,passion,pressing, athleticism and goals (although we could easily have had 6)

Awful news,he was the most positive and enthusiastic poster on the forum and will be sadly missed. RIP B4

I think that's a fair assessment.

Agree to disagree then on how poor we were...we struggled against the usual suspects who played to frustrate us....we need a better striker to solve the problem i.m.o

Completely dominated but couldn't break them down until the 89th minute...they scored on the two breaks they had. We spent too much time crossing into their box because they gave us no space in the middle.

Did we play crap? Completely dominated but couldn't score until late on....our problem,as ever,is out forward line against teams that sit in the box. We need a new centre forward in January (no s*** Sherlock)

You bloody beauty!!!!!

Great strike by Mendez....

How many times have we seen this when we play teams who sit deep,pack their box and play on the break? Warne has got to find a way to get around this because it's how every bloody team in league 1 (and clearly league 2) play.

FFS!!!!!
