Warne has openly spoken about the targets he was given and he’s hit major ones of achieving record points and promotion. The will always be niggles in managerial performance but there doesn’t seem any reason to change PW’s contract at the moment. With the step to the championship, summer transfers, and subsequent changes to team dynamics, it would be good to keep the consistency in management. 

He has proved so far he could do with Derby in League One what he did at Rotherham.
He now needs to prove he can do better in the Championship with a bigger club and more resources.
I would imagine a contract extension will only follow if the latter is proven or at least looks likely.
 

If I were Clowes I’d be leaving Warne (and his staff’s) contract as is. Warne probably also content with that. There’s still 2 years to run, probably had some sort of bonus or % increase written in should he achieve promotion. Wait and see how we go and if there’s a need to discuss a new deal it can happen later in the next season. 

So I’m sat at the beach bar in Hikkaduwa, drinking a beer & watching & re-watching the videos of the celebrations on my phone when a guy walks up, orders a beer and sits down next to me. I then notice his shorts..

Love this; underpass is part of my route to Pride Park. Hope it doesn’t get vandalised. We need more of this sort of street art.

I accidentally got drunk again.

Championship breakfast! 
 

... The day before. Reflections of yesterday with a bangin head!
It wasn't just Pride Park or the Neptune - it was the whole of Derby - some places have it and some don't, it's that simple!
It's easy to support Liverpool, it's easy to follow one of the Manchester clubs.
I don't think there is a greater footballing place in the UK than Derby!
COYR!
