    That’s a great assessment of the game and your lads fully deserved the win.
    I’m glad that an outside observer can also see how tactically inept our Coach is, the football on the whole this season has been dreadful and apparently we’re not allowed to criticise him due to our league position.
    Good luck for the rest of the season… hopefully we don’t see you next season.

    Hi Rams, I commented on the reverse fixture when you battered us earlier in the season so thought I would do the same just to give some context from the other side.
    A very different game to the one at Pride Park earlier in the season. The San Sixfields pitch is much smaller which definitely helps us, particularly against the big boys in the division. We have taken a pasting of pretty much all of the teams at the top of the table away from home this season, whilst at home managed mostly narrow defeats instead.
    No doubt that you should have scored at least one of the two chances in the first half, or at the very least worked the keeper, one of them goes in and you dont lose the game without a shadow of a doubt. The game earlier in the season you were picking holes in between our midfield and defense with ease, also NML pace was a constant threat. However in this game were clearly more compact and outside of those opportunities it didn't feel like you created a huge amount of clear cut chances. It was noticeable that you were much more direct this game for whatever reason, which I am far more confident of us deadling with. I know you have a number of bodies out, but we have 10 out (mostly in defence) so the injury list was similar on both sides.
    I thought the goal was a really well taken finish, definite foul in the build up but the defending after that would be pretty poor. Your full back (Wilson I think) also definitely handled it in the second half with no one around him. 
    I sit in the end where Bradley got his red, he definitely put his head in. Don't get me wrong i dont think Monthe is going to require a trip to the hospital but unfortunately you have to go down to almost bring it to attention. Thought it was poor from a guy who is that experienced and was seemingly always looking for physicality in the game. Yes we tried to slow down the game, no doubt about it. If i was an away fan I would be furious and hope the ref would stop it. But to add some context our season has been petering out to a degree with mid table safety and clearly our manager has given them a rocket pointing out there are still points to play for, there was not a lack of effort on our point despite little to play for seemingly. To be honest we are doing about as well as a club our size could be expected to do, as we were on of the favorites for the drop.
    I hope you go up, clearly a huge club that should not be at this level (plus dont want Peterborough to go up). I am guessing there is a big split in the fanbase over the manager, that was evident by the booing of one of the substitutions which you don't expect from a team that are fighting for the title. As a completely neutral observer Warne to me sits in the Gareth Ainsworth esque category of managers. Likeable character and personable, but with limitations at a higher level and in developing a more free flowing style, it dosnt seem like the best fit. Playing Pompey and Peterborough recently (both away so different challenges I guess) but they seemed much more composed in their style of play and just seemed to have more ways to hurt us.
    Hopefully your injury woes ease up a little and all the best for the rest of the season.

    So, I have calmed down after the Northampton defeat. The dust has settled. I can now look calmly over the season as a whole, where we were and how far we have come and so forth, and come to a rational and considered opinion based on all that I know.
    I still want Warne gone.
    Yes, nice bloke, bobble hats, next to no budget, this, that and the other.
    But whatever the outcome from this season: promotion, play-offs, missing out, whatever league we play in next season.....

    Sibley has had enough chances to show us what he can do in his preferred position, a run of games would probably do him good no doubt but he’s a squad player at best for me.

    He’s gotten better at LWB agreed but he’s not good enough upfront, certainly when CBT has come in for a decent fee and had very good statistics for Charlton earlier this season.
    Warne’s problem in my opinion is that he never seems to get the midfield right, how on earth did he think that Thompson could play as a deep lying number 10 when he’s basically just an ankle biter.

    The players were poor, some of them had stage fright? NML has been run into the ground by the looks of it.
    Two great chances missed in the first half, that would’ve obviously changed the game.
    Warne: Again found out tactically, waited until the 60th minute to change it after we could’ve been 2-0 down.
    Thompson playing as a 10 when CBT is on the bench?
    Its time to stop playing Sibley with Elder fit, he’s not good enough.
    Hourihane is a difficult one, he has the experience and is generally good at set pieces but his legs have gone and I don’t think he’s suited to away games. 
     
    Blackpool and Pompey will show us what Warne is made of, injuries or not there’s still some quality at his disposal.

    I'd use Sibley and Thompson off the bench. I find Sibley is best when he comes off the bench, as opposed to starting and Thompson looked really good yesterday. He has the sort of movement that could flourish against tired opponents.
    Id probably rotate Ward and Wilson depending on their condition and form, but still utilise the non-starter off the bench.
    I might have Tony Weston on the bench in case Waghorn needs to come off, but I don't think now is the right time to introduce him to regular first team appearances. Unless we are 3 or more goals up with 15 minutes or so left. IMO Dajaune Brown should be left at Gateshead to support his long term development, so I wouldn't consider recalling him unless Waghorn gets injured and there's no-one returning from injury.

    It wasn’t exactly a game high on quality (mainly from us) but Barnsley looked bright in parts and were the better side in midfield. I’m certainly not ruling you out, I think Pompey will win the league so that leaves one from three and I’m not confident we’ll be that one tbh.

    Well that is a brilliant fight back to beat a promotion rival at their ground.
    Their goals were obviously poor decisions by our players, we can’t afford to do that on Monday.
    Whats pleasing me is that we seem to be playing like a team on a mission now, hopefully we can get a couple of new faces in to help maintain the momentum.
    A surefire sign that we’re going up when Liam Thompson scores a header 😂
    Hopefully the lads can raise their game one more time on Monday before Warne thinks about rotating the key players a little.

    Seth's left foot reacted to angieram in B4 - for ever a Ram 🐏   
    I have some very sad news this evening.  Daniel (B4) died earlier this week. He was just 38.
    As you know, he has been battling numerous health conditions for a long time, but always remained cheerful  and was the most loyal supporter of his beloved Rams, home and away.
    He was at the match at Crewe and gave his full support as always. 
    Daniel leaves behind a grieving dad, mum and sister. Our thoughts go out to them and we only hope they get a little comfort from knowing how well loved Daniel is by all who know him. 
    Here are a couple of photos that his dad agreed could be shared. I'm sure many of you have others, as Daniel loved a selfie at the game.
    David is hoping to arrange a more fitting tribute in time, but for now please raise a glass in his memory and a good Derby win today. I am sure that's what Daniel would have been doing tonight.

    Do you know what Seth, that's not a bad shout - including the one about the kit. 
    Wilson might find it too congested in that area, whereby he has more room on the flanks, but those glimpses of chances he created for himself (Blackpool) and for others (Stevenage/Washington and Shrewsbury/Collins) it's certainly worth a look. 
    Thought he changed things from the wide area against Crewe and put in some dangerous crosses, but could he have provided that subtle pass playing in the number 10.
    I thought he was excellent throughout against Wolves U21's.  Someone remarked on here he had a poor first half, but I'd argue we didn't get the ball to him as much and when he had it he caused problems.  Bradley and Cashin both hit some great diagonals to him.
    I'm converted Seth - Id like to see him tried there.

    Back on topic, I’d like to see Wilson given a run at playing in the number 10 role as his quick feet would help open up teams that sit back.
