Big Travs got my hopes up it’s going to be a good unexpected name can’t wait for disappointment when it’s Gregory 

I'm not too stressed about us bringing anyone in, honestly. It seems like we're struggling to highlight players who can make then team better and that's a concern. I'd love to see what Mark Thomas has been doing for the past 12 months - there is clearly a disconnect between him and Warne that needs addressing. 
If we're waiting around to see what Michael Smith is going to do, like he's the only striker in the world who can improve us, then the whole recruitment strategy needs binning. 

Hourihane is captain, passes the ball better than anyone else on the books, and has done it all in the game. It'd be mad not to start him 90% of the time. The blend around him has to he right though.

Yeah all you so called fans! Next time cheer when the other team score

of course. I wouldn't comment on something i hadn't seen!
Sure he can't run round all game and win every header, which is what warne wants, but in footballing terms he is a level above everyone else. Good teams control games by keeping the ball, not by chasing it all game.
He seemed to take a big step forward over the summer. I quite often feel sorry for him as those around him are not at the same level as him and i have no doubt he wouldn't look out of place in a top 6 champ side.
Why do you think those teams are looking to sign him...

Would like to see fornah in for bird. Feel the lad deserves a run of games to see how good/average he actually is.
  Bird was exceptional vs Fleetwood but since then a passenger most games.
Hourihane is more of a goal threat then bird so he stays for me.

Got to be worth a go.
I wouldn't be sad to see Bird go. I really don't think we will miss him.

This flat 2 in the midfield doesn't suit either midfielder. Bird suits and you could say grew up as that holding distributor in a 3 and Hourihane is more of a forward 8 that is losing his legs. Tactically what I don't like about the midfield is whoever we have in there is there's always a no-man's land if we lose the ball on either wing. There is total confusion as to whether to hold the space centrally or fill the space where the wing back has left. This leads to them not tracking runners or far too apart from one another if we do then recover possession. 

I’m accidentally in reading. I’ve been working here today. Didn’t even realise the match was on this evening. On my way home, but need a charge. The first charger I’ve gone to is taken, so the second charger I navigated to happened to be outside the stadium. And then it hit me that the match is on today  
my wife is expecting me home in 3 hrs. But this feels like fate is telling me I have to go to the match. 

Their left back is trending due to a video trending of him French kissing with his dog.

I'm a bit reticent about writing players off this early - who would have imagined that Adam Smith would play nearly 200 PL games after his loan spell with us? We're supposed to be signing young players and building their value, so I'd be disappointed if Warne had already decided that he was surplus to requirements (unless he's committed a major transgression). I know a player at 24 isn't particularly young, but he showed some early promise. If he doesn't fit Warne's requirements, I hope at least we're going to get a fee for him, however small. 

If your feelings were right then we'd have been liquidated two years ago and all be watching AFC Derby in the United Counties League, so I think it's just as well that your feelings are never right, hey?!

Deserved to win that.
Listened to Radio Derby on way home and they’ve watched a different game where Burton deserved a draw.
Call me old fashioned but to score 3 they’d need at least 3 shots on target.
We had two iffy bits of defending and they had 2 excellent finishes. Other than that I thought Burton were one of the poorest teams we’ve played. 
The only slight negative is that we didn’t get the winner in the 97th minute. Couldn’t believe their plucky new manager moaning at the amount of time added on ……after he’d called a basketball style timeout with their mortally wounded number 3 a full 8 mm from the touch line.
Got what they deserved.
