No wins this calendar year and we play 5 at the back at home ffs

PV are a team to fear. We need to set up to counter their threat. Hopefully we can sneak a goal from a random piece of luck.

I hope Warne hasn’t had a hand in selecting the kit. Anything like his transfer dealings or tactics and it will be rubbish

But lo and behold, amidst the tumultuous tempest of the match, Derby’s best centre back found himself out of position, stationed not in the heart of defense where his prowess was most needed, but rather on the flank, a position unfamiliar and ill-suited to his considerable talents. The decision, like a misplaced comma in a sonnet, left spectators scratching their heads in bewilderment.
And as the clock ticked on, the stage was set for a spectacle of managerial antics. Warne, the tactician at the helm of Derby’s destiny, orchestrated a symphony of substitutions that befuddled the senses. Bizarre choices, akin to a chef adding chocolate to a savory stew, left observers questioning the very fabric of reality.

I like Warne as a person, can see why he was hired and why Clowes likes working with him. 
All that said and done, I don’t think he’s right for the club. He simply has to get promoted this season, because the relationship with the fans won’t last another year in league one and commercially the fans are the lifeblood of the club at this level. 

Ironically, my fear is promotion with him in the role is equally as bleak as I don’t have the faith that we have the competency within the club to rise above our financial station. Clowes hasn’t got financial muscle to have us do anything other than treading water in the Championship. The foundations of this club, post-administration, has been unfortunately built on sand. Restrictions has made it difficult, obviously I take that into account, but there is no real philosophy other than to ride the coattails of journeymen Championship footballers, mostly on the downswing of their career, to overpower the dross standard that we found ourselves in. 

I'm not blinkered. We're going backwards and cant bear his style of play if you can even call it that. However the players on the whole played atrociously also tonight. Ten year olds would do better for a throw in

He’s a close second in my all time despised managers just after Tommy doc

WARNE OUT TONIGHT

It was a lucky win against Stevenage

Well one game every now and then would be nice.

That was utter garbage yet again. It’s totally unwatchable at the moment and it stems from the ludicrous tactics, presuming we have any.
The price of mine and the lad’s season tickets has gone up by 40% and with nights like this, following many more like them, you do begin to wonder if it’s worthwhile.
If Mendez-Laing doesn’t create anything then that’s pretty much that isn’t it. I thought Cashin and Nyambe came out with credit tonight but the rest were ‘meh’ at best and a few were pretty disgraceful. The amount of 50/50 challenges bottled was quite noticeable. 
This team is neither good enough for the top two, nor does it have the bottle for the fight of the play offs. I hope I’m wrong, I really do. The manager has come out and said we haven’t played well all season. I agree with him so who is to blame for that then?
What a disappointing week and with Port Vale, who we will no doubt be told are an excellent team with great players for this league, to come it could get even worse if we approach the game with this ridiculous negative and defensive mindset from the start.

Dire yet again. 
Get Warne gone and bring someone in to look at getting us promoted next year, playing actual football in the process.
Hilariously depressing to hear Washington is potentially out until the end of the season with a knee issue. An issue he’d had operated on in the summer, and we still chose to sign him knowing our budgets were limited. 
Who in their right mind would sign a 31 year old striker who has just had a knee op. I’m not sure what’s more amateur, Warnes tactics or his transfer decisions. 

I've been saying all season, we are picking up points in spite of warne, not because of him

Enough. Bottled last year and doing same this year.
No nous no tactics no idea no hope
warne Is useless

Ever since the change of logo, the Adidas train has picked up pace and is about to leave the station, I would very much like us to be on board

I've got an idea for him... He can f*** off back to Rotherham and take his sh**e brand of football with him.

He's just got a wiff of Holloway about him, always trying to be funny on camera. Was ok to start with but it's tedious now, we're not Rotherham.
