It definitely plays in to my decision. It’s just not enjoyable at the minute. Last night was just everybody around me moaning. Why do we do it to ourselves! 😂

I actually thought Gayle looked really promising for a player that’s been here a week with limited training. He’s still got pace and played some really nice balls to bring others in to play. It was just a shame that we don’t seem capable of stringing more than 2 passes together beyond that.

I can’t remember him saying that as I was still trying to recover from what I’d just witnessed, but I do remember him saying that the first 20 minutes today was the best we’ve played this season…which sums up how bad the football has been this season.

I can’t put in to words how bad that was. I’d say we have the best squad in the league on paper, but they’re playing at their absolute worst. Appreciate Charlton have a decent squad, but they hadn’t won in 19 games. Low on confidence and should have been a comfortable 3 points. Obviously Warne is going nowhere soon, but we are not moving forward as a football club. We should be looking for a young coach that can help develop our younger players with a good style of football as Warne is not the long term answer.

Yep I do know what he’d be saying! I’m sure when it comes down to it I’ll end up renewing but right now it’s not that 100% yes that I’ve had every other season.

Anyone else split on whether to renew this season? I think I’m on 9 consecutive seasons, having had 2 years off when I was at university before that. I don’t think the increase is that bad, something like £3 a game for me. I’m just at a point where I have a young family that are too young to attend matches and I get a lot of stick when I go to games from the other half! Then also the football…I just don’t think I’ve really enjoyed many games this season. I remember when I couldn’t wait all week for the match but now it hurts me to say I could happily take it or leave it. I’m siding to not renewing and just picking games that interest me or getting an away membership?

It would only be worrying if he was out of contract this summer and could force us in to getting something now rather than nothing in the summer. We have full control of the situation with him having over 2 years left on his contract and there is absolutely no way Derby let him go at this point when he’s often carried us through games and won points on his own. I can’t even see him leaving next season unless we’re offered daft money.

Clowes won’t part ways with Warne. He will give him until 10+ games of next season before even considering a change. It will definitely hit the attendances next season though, either way whether we’re in the Championship or League One. It’s not good when I enjoyed our relegation season under Rooney more than this season. I genuinely came away from that season happy with performances on the pitch.

Absolutely awful football.

Bird playing so well…

It’s been said that the fee was higher than the compensation, so why accept less in the summer?

I think they’re a pretty safe Championship club at the minute who are looking up the table. We’re miles off that. My surprise is why he didn’t wait until the summer and then you’d think a top 6 Championship side would fancy him. You never know, he may have been asked by Derby to accept Bristol’s offer as it was the best for Derby in the shorter term.

Really odd one for Bird. Knight must have sold Bristol City to him. Otherwise I can’t see why he wouldn’t wait until the summer and see which option is the best. He clearly doesn’t feel any strong feeling for Derby anymore, otherwise you’d think he would have waited to see what league we’re in then signed a new deal if we got promoted.

Nah, he will just do a George Thorne and declare his love for Derby and refuse to play for Cardiff. There will be a stalemate between clubs but once it reaches 1,000 pages on here a deal will be made.

I can’t imagine they have an issue with him playing against them unless they genuinely feel they can make the play offs. It makes me wonder if there’s something daft in our business plan and this is a work around on it. edit - just seen he can play Charlton so must be the latter.

Yep this is being announced later. I’d imagine they’ve been briefed on it already.

Cashin looks off it today.

Didn’t Warne say in his interview last night that his Wife had told him it was going round that he was signing a player from Reading and he said it was nonsense?

Is it just me that finds it crazy we will offer £300k when he will be free in the summer? I can only assume we have a fee for Cashin or something already arranged for us to be throwing that money around on someone with 6 months left. If we have sold anyone then it makes sense that it isn’t announced until we’ve done our business so asking prices don’t go up.
