    nottingram got a reaction from Alan Ramage 4 EVA in Warne Out Out   
    For the first time in my 15 or so years of going, if my ticket was up for renewal tomorrow I highly doubt I would bother. I am dreading Tuesday. Have gone from planning holidays around home games to not caring a jot if I organise something in place of a game and let some other poor sod have my ticket.
    It isn’t supposed to be like this. Get him gone - I doubt I’m alone.

    I would just love to know what we are building up to being. I am not sure if Warne even sees a vision of what he wants us to be, in truth. Let alone me.

    Do Stevenage have a better squad than us or are they better coached?
    I don’t think they have a better squad but their coach is Steve Evans so it is a serious concern if they are better coached.

    nottingram got a reaction from i-Ram in Jordan Rhodes - gone to Blackpool   
    I miss the days where our transfer strategy was to get our targets to refuse to play for their clubs.
    It’s no wonder there wasn’t much sympathy for us really

    The way the ECB have destroyed 50 over cricket in this country has been so efficient it is hard to believe it is not deliberate.
    From Root’s comments it sounds like they are eyeing up T20 next. The sooner they realise no one else is interested in buying up their hundred rubbish the better. If the Blast goes then so do half the counties who rely on the income from it.

    But what is safe? Hiring a manager with 3 promotions from this level? 
    Ipswich with McKenna. Plymouth with Schumacher. I think the sport is changing. If you think about it, if you can attract someone “proven” at the level you are playing at you have to wonder why a) they would come to you and not be looking for better and b) why no one better wants them.

    I get that the OTT negative attention seeking style  posts are extremely grating but what is it you're expecting people to do?
    Make their views known once, and once only, in a single post covering every angle and nuance of the situation in depth and then stop engaging with the discussion?
    Post their view that they want Warne out, and then never express an opinion on him again until he leaves the club?
    Not respond to other posters quoting them and countering their view? Or those criticising them for having / repeating that view?
    (Not that anyone ever really puts forward a proper case against what they're saying, just accuses them of short terminism, looking like idiots, making the board unreadable, undermining Clowes by association etc - anything to deflect the attention away from discussing the manager's performance)
    How many poor performances and matches between posts criticising Warne should people be leaving it?
    Should they not comment with their frustrations after yet another poor performance is produced as a result of the problems they see with his management?
    We've just had an international break and whilst the discussion carried on for a while after our last game in the last week or so there's not been much of anything to talk about with regard to Warne - the conversation changed to the quality of the squad.
    The last week hasn't been full of posts criticising Warne, it's not people waking up in the morning and thinking "hmmm, I know what I'll do, I'll go on DCFC Fans just so I can have a pop at Paul Warne". It had died down, possibly with the help of the temporary self removal of one of the agitators in chief but probably just because there wasn't any football to discuss.
    Like it or not, the (under)performance of Paul Warne is the most pertinent point of discussion at present when it comes to talking about Derby County, which is what (most of us) are here to do. The multitude of samey topics is very annoying but they exist for that reason.
    People aren't 'starting to turn' on David Clowes' just because they're think he's made a mistake with this appointment. What a ridiculous thing to say. 
    That does seem to be the latest tactic to try to discredit anyone who's a Warne Outer though, and surprise surprise look at who spent all morning leading the charge in their attempts to steer the conversation that way.

    Shrewsbury a top side at this level with a top manager. Let’s hope we can grab a point and that would be a cracking result
