This really is a fantastic effort from all involved.
Since we started this thread, we have taken 9 points from 4 games at 2.25 points per game!  And we’ve added another 8 pages since my post so are now just 218 pages away from top spot.  If we can all focus and keep being really really cross for a bit longer we can do this.
. 

That would be Rosenior’s 1.56 points per game v Warne’s 1.68 😉.

Imagine how Warne would have done with us last season without the good start (and squad) from Rosenior. 😉

Its pretty pointless trying to offer any sort of defence anymore because the goalposts are just constantly moving.
We've gone from...
We are a big team, we shouldn't be losing to......
to
Ok we are winning but we should be having more possession
to
Ok we are winning but he should be playing Sibley more
to
Ok he has given Sibley a run but he should be playing the academy players
Its clear that whatever happens from here on in, that some posters have made their mind up on Warne and will use absolutely anything to criticise him.

That's not what we had last season, but it is where we were. We've not gone forwards at all. 

I think its called easing players in?
Seems sensible when we have such a toxic fanbase waiting to turn on the team.

In fairness I reckon both Collins and Bradley could have handled themselves in the playground. I wonder how many folk who take the keyboard criticism to the excesses (and beyond fair and reasonable) would actually say this directly to the players if they met them (and no I don’’t count shouting faceless abuse when you’re part of a 1,500 away or 25,000 home crowd).
I suspect there are very few.  

Am I the only one feeling somewhat "Warne out" by all the Warne Out threads and posts all over "social" media?

I’d say Warne’s careless way of speaking to the media about his players is likely to be part of the reason. Including about McGoldrick. 

Any evidence to back up what appears to be yet more speculation and supposition?
McGoldrick said the following when he joined Notts;
He said: "It has been a difficult decision for me to leave Derby County, but it has been a huge ambition of mine to play for Notts County again before the end of my career.
"I’ve been honest and open with both Paul Warne and the club about it in recent weeks and they’ve been supportive and understanding.
“If it wasn’t for the fact that I had the chance to return to Notts, it would have been a no-brainer to stay at Derby - regardless of interest from any other club.
"I really enjoyed working under the gaffer and his staff, playing alongside the lads and, of course, performing in front of the brilliant fans at Pride Park. I want to thank everyone for making me feel so welcome in the last year.
 
"I had a wonderful season with Derby and to score 25 goals and three hat-tricks made it such an enjoyable time, the best in terms of goals for me personally in a season, and actually made the decision such a difficult one.
"I’ve had many conversations with the gaffer over the last few weeks and he really did do everything he could to keep me at Derby but, in the end, I have decided to go with my heart and return to Notts."

Warne clearly has some limitations as a manager, plenty of things that can be articulated and supported with evidence as many posters on here do (some of the regular observations include lack of game time for youth players, one dimensional tactics, a lack of in-game management, using players in unfamiliar positions on the pitch). The unsubstantiated claims about his man-management being a failing in the face of evidence to the contrary isn’t the bold statement you and others seem to think it is. 

Sometimes one dimensional is more than enough to get out of the lower leagues, look how Wimbledon used to be and they won the FA Cup also doing it. We might be able to do it in the EFL Cup but a lot of the fans will be happy if we all achieve the results we are trying to achieve.
A minority of fans will never be happy, with whatever style Derby play.
I still shake my head when I had to tell young fans during the Q.P.R v Derby Play Off Final to get a grip of themselves when they spent most of the game verbally attacking their own players, mostly Jamie Ward calling him all sorts, with a load of filthy uncouth words.
I get having a go at the opposing team with banter, trying to effect their game, but some fans will just never work out what “supporter” means, unfortunately.
Up The Rams 🐏

The fact that a Derby player voices support for the manager tends to piss off stupid people, so what's your excuse?

That would apply to every player under every manager.

That’s the Hourihane who on two separate podcasts this year has said Warne’s man management is a strength. 
We all know how you feel about Warne being manager of the club, you asked for evidence of what the players think of his man management and I provided some. It doesn’t match your own view of Warne, but it’s directly quoted from one of the senior figures in the squad, sometimes you can just accept the information available to you as well as holding your own opinion

It’s not about being happy clappy and if he plays badly in a particular game I have no problem him being criticised.
What I dislike intensely is the way in certain quarters individual players are cast as the ones to kick on a regular basis. It’s destructive it’s a kind of remote bullying. If this was a real playground there’d be a group picking out the likes of Collins, Bradley, Malone for special “attention” They were even on Vydras back for a short while. 
Yes there is always a mob

Over the course of the season we’re going to need goals from everywhere. Collo may not be our first choice in some games but he has a role to play. He scored our only goal in the draw against Portsmouth, he scored both in a 2-0 win at Carlisle and he scored the 2nd in the win against Blackpool. Agreed he could have added to that at Cheltenham and Shrewsbury. He’s a League One striker - not PL - his conversion rate is going to be low. But he works his nuts off and by all accounts is a great for building togetherness in the dressing room. 
All of the strikers have looked good in some games and pants in others - but at least we have options when that happens now!!

You know that’s just plain wrong. Collins is past his best and in any case was and is a league one striker with all the flaws that entails. BUT One thing Collins does do is get in good positions. I can’t defend the missed chances but you know, he should have played Barks in the other week and got slated. Barks did the same but not a whisper. Not on in my book. 
Collo isn’t the answer to “Derby’s No 9” but he is a Ram, he’s our player, he works, turns up and does stuff (did anyone notice the the back flick exchange with NML last night ?  
 
I find the toxicity towards him from some quarters simply loathsome. We had the same over Bradley but he seems to have been forgiven by the mob (for now) The same mob that are wanting to crucify the manager and have zero patience and zero understanding of the meaning of support. Some supporters seem to revel in attacking our own for mistakes, bad luck or whatever other something they can use to focus their puerile attitude to sport.
Pompous ? Angry ? Opinionated ? Yes .. I am guilty of all of them but when a player has our shirt on I back them, I don’t set out to trip them up or rejoice in mishaps. And no .. it isn’t “bants” or a “larf” 

I understand that when the football isn’t pretty, and the league position is dire, football fans will inevitably lash out. However, I am amazed that there are a good number on here tonight slating our owner. This is a staggering state of affairs even for our club, only some 15 months since he saved us.  Cool it down lads. 

Cashin looking dodgy as f so far. Don’t think he’s playing a full 90 today!
