Feeling a draw, but Derby 2 - 1 Lincoln FRGS Sibbo

Agree he did a fantastic job at Leicester but I've seen little to like in terms of picks, tactics, poor subtitutions etc. for what is a big step up to manage England. Very keen to see what the team looks like for...blimey, just 7 weeks time.

Don't worry, we've got Borthwi......oh.

The first score that popped into my head Derby 3 - 1 Horrible lot down the road FRGS Collins

Great win today. Well done lads. On a fab run. Win our games in hand over P'borough and Stevenage and top 2 beckons. Are we playing scintillating football, no (flashes ) and at times I think we all grimace and fume, but despite that we are more than in the hunt. It's a funny old game. COYR.

Orient 0 - 2 Rams FRGS Collo

Derby 3 - 1 Fleetwood. FRGS NML

Phew!

Saw this yonks ago on Netflix. Loved it. Season 2 is some 6 yrs in the making but there's rumours we may get it next year. Fingers crossed.

Vale 0 - 2 Derby FRGS NML

Derby 2 - 0 Rovers FRGS Collins

Suspect Everton's were big enough to get the deduction this season rather than last......

I did say a while back I'd give him until Christmas. Scarily we're nearly there. An inability to change tactics An inability to play to our strengths No trust in some of the youngsters Looking like he's losing (lost) some of the dressing room We're only as high up as we are due to the fact most other teams are absolute tripe. Not sure I want to wait until Christmas.

That's exactly why they do it. CYA measures. They've done on the current Cricket World Cup a few times when the stump mics picked up some colourful language. I find it funny - the swearing, not the apologies: they're annoying.

Been out all day and just got in. First stop the forum to bask in the positivity and joy of a great win, and saw this 😢 I didn't know you mate, or ever meet you but jeez your passion, your belief in this team of ours, your rallying cries, your innocent naivety whenever someone gently pulled your leg - you leave behind a legacy your family should rightly be proud of. We'll miss you B4. RIP fella 🐏

Probably bigger

Derby 2 - 1 Barnsley FRGS. An inspired, uber confident Collins

Don't get me on the topic (sic) of shrinkflation! Chocolate bars are now smaller yet cost proportionately more. Freddos used to weigh 20g, they're now nearly half that. Large dairy milk went from 200g to 180g, yet the price stayed the same. As did the smaller ones, losing 4g simply by having square corners not round, with no change to the price. Mars are something like 20% smaller. I could go on but fortunately for everyone here I have a meeting I need to prep for......

Agree - was interesting listening to Daniel Sturridge on MNF this week explaining what positions a striker should take up in the box, and why. Instinct, understanding of where your team mate is going to pass, understanding of who may be following in behind you (your AM) so move in to create space, to name a few. Sadly I don't think Collins is anywhere near this.

With good reason sadly. If we had a massive unit of a striker as the target then fine - we don't. We need King Colin back. Crewe were set up to defend the cross, and did it extremely well. We opened them up by playing it to our strengths, on the ground to score our two goals. Shooting practice wouldn't go amiss too.

I have 😎

No surprise both our goals came from playing the ball on the ground and not from one of the 300 crosses aimed at the 6'5" striker we don't have.

Now that was a great goal.

Anyone just hear that on the ITVx mics? "Paul Warne, your football is F... S....".
