    As long as he doesn’t play 4231 and have his players passing the ball sideways for 70 mins in our own half I will be happy

    Disappointing loss that. Poor subs cost us imo. Dobbin should have been on for Barkz, Sibley should have been on for Didzy. It all became a mess after those subs. I agree that Conor didn’t play well and Rooney on to help shore up the midfield would have been the better option.
     
    It felt like Liam just wanted to give some minutes to Tommo some minutes and get the the new kid on for his debut rather than managing the actual game in front of him.

    Sibley took a few kicks on Tuesday. So maybe protecting him a bit and it’s a long season ahead. No doubt he will come in when the time is right

    EnigmaRam reacted to Ghost of Clough in LG 1 appropriate transfer suggestions   
    That makes more sense based on his match action last season.
    8 on loan, max of 5 in the matchday squad.
    It could be a youth loan, which doesn't count towards that quota, but then he wouldn't be allowed to play for the first team.

    EnigmaRam reacted to Millenniumram in Who s enjoying league 1?   
    Two ways of looking at it really.
    No, I’m not enjoying us being in League One. It’s grim to be two divisions below all our rivals, unable to spend a penny whilst they’re splashing tens of millions on players. It’s a long way back and it’s depressing to think about really. A club like Derby County, with our fan base and history, shouldn’t be in this league with all these tinpoint salty clubs. But we are, thanks to our t*** of a former owner.
    However, what I enjoy more than anything is watching Derby win football matches - whatever the competition or level. So in that regard, it’s nice to actually be battling at the right end of the table (so far anyway) after scrapping in a relegation fight for the last few years. After all, that’s what footballs about - that feeling when the final whistle goes and you’ve got 3 points in the bag. I’d much prefer it if we were scoring more goals to be fair - we’ve been starved in that regard for years, and it’s not started too well this season either. But if we get promoted this season, I’ll be getting just as drunk as I would if we got promoted to the Premier League, believe me!

    Collins definitely should start, McGoldrick rests up and starts on Saturday for me.
    Collins needs a goal, this is his best opportunity.

    Probably the most infuriating few pages of this forum I've read in a while.
    Despite what some of the 'just saying it how it is' Talksport types on here think, no-one at all is saying a performance or tactics are beyond criticism. But at least have the decency to apply some context to criticism  i.e. a bunch of players slung together in no time at all, a rookie manager, a late pre-season & the fact we have dominated the 3 away games these same individuals are outraged we haven't won. Just hysterical, over-entitled garbage that I didnt miss at all last season
    If we'd had social media back in the day, some on here would have happily got rid of Arthur Cox in 84/85 (we finished 7th in Division 3 with a bunch of expensive signings, imagine that) & wouldn't have given Clough another season after 67/68.
    Just as well David Clowes seems a sensible, measured type & won't be doing kneejerk Mel Morris reactionary cack. He'll look at the table & notice we're just outside the playoff spots...perhaps the bedwetters might like to do the same.

    When I saw the starting line up I didn't expect us to score. Dobbin has one good performance as sub and is brought straight into the team. Sibley has been outstanding in every performance this season and Rosenior refuses to start him. What's that about? Seriously?We have only scored all season when Louie has been on the pitch. Zero goals without him playing. It is unfathomable. Of course Rosenior will start him in a second string midweek in the League Cup, but this team which has not scored a single away league goal so far, needs him there from the off in every league game. 
    If Rosenior really thinks Sibley's more effective coming on off the bench, then Rosenior doesn't know what he's talking about. Which is worrying. While it sounds as if we were a little better today, the frustration for so many of us is it's clear we could be so much better but the manager is beginning to appear too stubborn to see what's so obviously staring him in the face. 
    What's "Derby" short for? "Derby nil" at the moment.

    Well played Derby. Excellent start to the season all considered. Really enjoying watching the way Liam has them playing and although its frustrating currently I'm absolutely sure we are going to have a very enjoyable season. UTR

    Remind me, how long have Ipswich been in League One?
    Are they under any embargoes or business plans, salary caps and the like? 
    How long have they taken to assemble their squad?

    Anyone would think this team had cost millions to assemble. The only player we bought on the pitch is Fozzy for £150k 10 years ago. It’s frustrating but we’re creating the chances.

    I'd be far more concerned if we were struggling to get a foothold in games and creating chances. Hopefully the goals will start to come soon.

    Is it just me that's noticed a trend of recently new posters on this forum with a somewhat more negative and demanding attitude calling for LR's that us "old school boys (and girls)"?
