    You are joking right? Most of the play down the right is down to him and Elder. The corners that Bradley can't do anything with? Whatever. 

    I must be off my rocker as Davesaram has just defended him too. 
    I’ve seen him stand on the ball in a promising position, get a feee kick after kicking the ball out of play, crossing the ball, behind everyone when he wasn’t really under any pressure, get booked unnecessarily for a late challenge.. so no not joking are. 
    I want Sibley in the team but I can’t see he is making it hard for PW to leave him out. 
    would love him to come out second half and dominate. Actually would love him and For ah to go up a gear - they’re both good enough and are good better options than Smith for a space in the first team midfield.

    but no, not joking.

    I beg your pardon? He has done a few good things with the ball, but his tracking back and tackling have been excellent, with the exception of his yellow card challenge

    I’ll have to take your word for it Dave. I’m a big Louis Sibley fan and want him in the first team but all I’ve seen is misplaced passes or poor control. 
    can’t claim to have had my eyes glued to the screen mind this last 10 mins.

    Derby totally lack any sort of control when we get into / around the opposition box. Just "hit and hope" crosses that invariably find a defender or sail everyone by. Oh for the days of Bryson/Hughes/Hendrick/Martin & Ward (J) when we weaved our way through defences like a hot knife through butter. 

    Was thinking myself that I miss us being good. We don’t have to win every match but I used to love watching us .. from a football point of view and now I (enjoy) watching us because I’m a Derby fan. 

  4. I sit quite comfortably in the Paul Warne Out section of our fan base.

    that said, and speaking specifically on todays game, I don’t think we were poor. Davesaram has highlighted that we played football to the final third and then resort to warneballcrossfest - in my opinion we did. Angieram has said that we played a little more through the middle and there were more cut backs and not just crossing. Theres is truth to this. The fist half was definitely another episode of ‘can’t cross will cross’. 

    Warne is not really at fault for Barkhuizens determination to tickle the ball into the goal when in decent shooting positions. He should have got one at least and NML should really have buried the header. Then it’s a different game.

    however I do suggest that Warne needs to really start thinking about how we break teams down

    When we cross the ball it was often to a place where there were no Derby players. 
    As a young un we were taught to always have someone at the back post .. 

    when we pull it back - let’s just say that we could work on this in training as we don’t show the synergy in these positions that I’d like to see and we could capitalise more. 
    we’ve got the pass to the wing and cross thing sorted (ish) now let’s practice shooting hard and pulling the ball back… patterns of play if you will.

    Very good to see the team not giving up and totally playing for 96 mins. If we don’t do that we lose 2-0.

    it wasn’t awful, it could have been different, it was against Crewe’s reserves 

    but DISNEY it effing wasn’t!!!!
