Interesting statement ?
out of interest: who said that? 

This is me, Cash is not the issue, Time is not the issue, It's that I find todays football has been sanitised by those we can't see, Taking the knee, VAR, New rules that make a simple game a little more complicated, Feigning injury...yes it's been in the game for years, Now it's a tactic to break the game up, Referees, The spontaneity has gone altho not affected in the EFL...Yet!
 

Point 1: I’ve noticed that. We’re more vocal with lower than optimum numbers.
Point 2: beg to differ there @Carl Sagan; not often I disagree with your good self but I’m thoroughly enjoying the football. The images of Festy blitzing the Fulham fullback last night like a bike chasing after a train will live in my mind. And Curtis racing forward and setting up TL for the awesome strike that their keeper somehow beat behind. Bloody joyful football. Rooney has really got this group gelled and working like a machine. A few tweaks and …who knows! 

Maybe if the TV company decided to keep the kick offs to 15:00pm Saturdays more people would turn up. 12:00pm on a Sunday was a horrible kick off time. We're not a Premier League tourist team who will fill the ground regardless of date and time.

There is a Fulham fan who knows his stuff.

Aside from the talk of the wider issues, I think Derby deserve some credit for their performance tonight. They clearly came to The Cottage with the intention of trying to win the game, and I applaud them for that. No sign of timewasting or gamesmanship as the minutes ticked away, they were still going for it right to the end - credit where it's due. Worrying how much we missed Mitrovic, though.

Absolute after-burners.

Feck ye then. 

If ever you need to stay over, we have a good spare room and you'd be made welcome. I have an Irish passport and Irish heritage. I'm a frequent visitor to Eire.

I hear you buddy
I know what is like to have crippling pain and feeling like I could throw up with pain and sometimes I am.
But love of Derby get me through it.

My Chelsea supporting son-in-law went with a Bournemouth mate to watch the game on Sunday. He was really impressed with our support throughout the game.
While watching the game last night his comment was, "Derby fans are really loud aren't they?" ?

I rather in the cold supporting the team.

I hope the page before this on is preserved to future generations to show how we had fun in the early 2020's.

On point 2 the major difference for me is one of intent; we are trying to play football this season, take the game to people and make things happen. Yeah sometimes we make a bit of a fluff of trying to play our way out of trouble but I can respect that we keep trying to make it work and we are overall getting better at it. It's the same going forwards we don't score enough on paper that's for sure but it doesn't seem like it's from a lack of intent and even then I don't think we are far from finding the right balance to create enough meaningful chances. We are a mismatch of players who are past it, mediocre or at the very start of their career it would be easy to revert to percentage football or meekly accept our doom and yet we haven't and are still trying to do the right things. 
For me that's what's entertaining about this season; I can see a team shaping and evolving in spite of the external goings on. It's fun to see Bird really starting to hit his stride this season, Ebosele breaking through to terrorise players, Thompson coming out of nowhere as if he'd been playing in the championship for for 5 years or the likes of Jagielka and Davies pulling out every last trick they can to stop us conceding. The overall spirit of the team is one that is giving it's all and pulling in the same direction. Will it be good enough to get safety this season? Probably not but at least we go down giving our best effort.

Yes; clapped the Rams ? 

Great point. Great support! Proud. Onwards.
