Rooney looks class, so comfortable on the ball and moving forwards.

This is what first leapt to kind for me. Say Thomas presents a list of good young prospects that'll cost a few quid each but be worth good money and be fighting for the first team in a year or two (Jake Rooney-esque). He presents them to Warne, but they're not going to fit into project promotion. Instead he signs Washington, taking a massive chunk out of the wage budget.
Queue poor start to the season and Warne goes back to Thomas asking for players, only to find he can't afford any of them because he wanted his Old Boys Club band back together. It's easy to slate him when he's presenting an entirely different view.
Alternatively, all the money disappeared when we found we had to pay the Jozwiak deal and now everyone is looking at Thomas and Warne to pull a rabbit out of the hat so tensions are high.
Obviously all hypothetical, but if the new hire is rubbish then it's the one who did the hiring at fault. That's how it's always been when I've been involved in hiring anyway.

He sounds like a long term appointment overwhelmed by short term panic.
Just playing Devil's Advocate here, but whispers coming out of a club that it's all one person's fault, doesn't necessarily mean it's all that person's fault. Could be deflection.   

He's so low on confidence. You can see he's constantly caught in a battle between his instincts and how he's been told to play, resulting in him somehow doing neither. If he was told to just win the ball and get it upfield we'll see a better player (couldn't be much worse!)

Pathetic, spineless performance. Yes, the ref was shocking but we were even worse.
Collins looked like he was actively trying to get sent off. Threw a couple of elbows and at one point it even looked like he was trying to handle high passes. I don't say this lightly but i'd be happy if he never played for us again.

Maybe Esteban Fuertes has finally got his passport sorted?

Collins' best performance in a Derby shirt, Bird looked a different player and important players getting on the score sheet. Can't ask for much more than that.
The biggest thing for me was that Warne was able to change the game with whatever he said at half time. We were second best but could have score 5 or 6 in the end.
Not getting carried away, Burton may well go down this season, but it's so nice to feel positive post match.

Darren Moore has a brand of football that would send stock prices of neck braces through the roof. He also plays 3 at the back, which seems to be out major issue. Not saying it's a bad thing necessarily, but if people don't like Warneball because it's too hoof centric, Big Dave would get boo'd out of PP

I am whelmed at this signing
