Will Hughes Hair

Warne could have spent a fee on player(s) but chose to put that money towards the wages of OAPs instead.

But what are his real priorities? How many of the 8 players signed does the 'decent age bracket' apply to? Why sign them all, couldn't we have picked up cheaper players if it's money that's the problem?
Perhaps it's how he's spent his budget, and that's the problem, an old fashioned way of looking at things maybe, you can't always go looking for a pay-day loan when you're spent up! 😄

Although Cashin hasn’t been very good this season so far, he’s been the best defender of the 3. Who replaces him? And won’t it just make the defence worse? 

did we scout these defenders or did we just look at the amount of appearences they had in the championship?
 
they really are really bad

I’ve heard on the quiet that apparently we have a few scouts in the Rotherham area of the British Isles. Perhaps they’ll be able to unearth a gem from there?

I understand we are in L1 and it would seem we have very little to spend(understandable after our situation)
But I miss the unknown player that striker from the lower leagues of Argentina or the young CM playing in Spain top  B teams. I guess we don't scout there just dreaming I guess lol 

I like to see a wing back overlapping with a wide player - like Nathan Byrne did.

No different to when Knight and NML worked so well together. Ward and Nat can work together to create opportunities.
Easier if when Ward receives the ball deep, he can give and go with a player in front of him.

Breaking News!
Mozza’s grown a moustache!

Indeed. The much maligned Darryl Powell did this for us in Jim Smiths team

I keep seeing comments about us needing a proper defensive midfielder. Surely with 3 at the back that shouldn’t be a necessity? I could understand someone who’s a bit of a ratter like Shinnie, but not sure about needing an out and out defensive midfielder. 

Or, is this just an indictment that we don’t have the right CBs for playing 3 at the back?
First game of the season tonight, so I’m looking forward to being able to make some more informed opinions 😊 COYR 🐏 

This.
We are the Graeme Hick or Anthony Joshua of League One.
 

Why should it? We’ve done it in the past with Terry Hennessy, Frank Wignall and more recently Floodgates, and all we’ll do is take his transferring to us as a sign that having tasted the Trees he now hates them!

He has barely played for Forest. It would have no impact on 90% of fans. 
We have signed high profile forest players in the past with barely an issue.
 

Not at Pride Park they didn’t 

It seems it’s too soon to have spelt Moor Farm correctly! 
Will be good to have him back. Still think there is a very decent player there. 

I think, taking this in the manner it was intended, Will Hughes would be the one for that “romantic homecoming”. We scrape through promotion this season and the rebuild is on once more for 2024/25 in the championship, Hourihane says he’s off to coach Villa’s kids full time, Smith decides he’s retiring to open a Farm Shop in the Yorkshire Dales, we need an experienced player to play alongside Max Bird and his shiny new contract, and Will Hughes says “I’m your man, I’ve done my premier league tour, I’m coming home!”
Swiftly followed by Festy, Kaide Gordon, Kellyman, Liam Delap and….Chris Martin in a player coach role. 

This is not about Didzy replacements but who of players who have left us or are Derby fans perhaps would you like to see drop down a little and help us get back up there? Indeed are there any? 
My main one would be Will Hughes

Not sure why they're bothered? They got beat 3-0 in front of a crowd, instead of an empty ground. There was zero trouble because our fans are class. And once again we've given them the biggest home gate receipt of their season.
Ungrateful plebs.

I’m in 7th place in the Premier League. An all time high 😁😁😁
Thanks @mozza!

Well I saw chalk dust.

I’ve been breaking in some new brogues all day today. Definitely worn in now.

I’m always enthusiastic. That’s why it hurts so much when we’re poor

Calm the f*** down!  We ain't won yet, you happy clapping t*$$ p0t!   👀
