I am sorry you feel that way. But I think it’s an unhelpful comment to make. 
We are all just sharing our opinions, different as they may be. People like myself are just saying it as they see it.
I could understand you if this was 2014 and I was pouring cold water over McClaren’s team.
But look at how the club has been run and look at how the team has been managed in recent years. Can you blame people for struggling to find the positives?

Where is the evidence that no-one would touch the Derby job at the moment and Rooney is the best man for the job?
They are both assumptions which can’t be tested while the job is unavailable.
By the same token, I could say if Rooney left tomorrow, there would be tens of managers lining up to take on the challenge of reviving a club like ours.
Managers will always be judged come what may, and you can only take it as it comes. The circumstances will never be optimal, so why wait to judge Rooney?
Rooney has been given a more than fair chance if you consider he’s not even officially qualified to do the job.
Backing the manager is fine, but we came within a whisker of relegation whilst playing uninspiring football and we have won three league games since the spring.
You can’t be surprised that some fans will still have reservations over the manager, surely? This is modern football and managers are scrutinised more fiercely than ever.

We don’t know that do we. I bet plenty would apply if the job became available……..

I'd rather have gene wilder than Rooney....

Hope Rooney surprises me but I'd much rather we had Chris Wilder.

Probably is Covid measures, agree with the decision or not.
Some will say you should stay and watch the game until the ref blows for half time.
Response to that will be there is no chance I'd get a pint then.
Which the reply would be can't you go 2hrs without alcohol.
I would say why not install a load of contactless card vending machines that chuck out 440ml cans.
For some having a drink is part of the football day out, 15 minutes is a push for a pint anyway, but with a 10 minute wait in the queue becomes impossible without missing bits of the game.
Not sure if laws would allow but fans could take unopened cans up to the stands, then open at half time to avoid any queuing at all.
Just eject people if seen drinking in the stand. Can see why they won't let football fans drink in the stands with the latest trend of launching pints in the air when goals go in.

I would suggest it's a good thing to encourage fans to watch the actual game rather than have the players see the stands emptying well before the end of each half.

He could struggle to get another managerial job at a decent championship club after he finishes at DCFC. 

We need to spread them about a bit more so it looks fuller.

Hmm, Tuesday-Sunday=48hours.

Bent 69. Got me a lot of male attention and not all necessarily Derby fans either. Can't fathom why. ?‍♂️

Kenny Burns was born and brought up in a Council Estate in Glasgow. He was often found the wrong side of the tracks, but turned his life round through football. I am not going to mock his literacy skills though. I loathe snobbery. 

Biggest clue yet that you are actually Kenny Burns

The answer is generally.... yes. 

With the combination of the ownership saga, ongoing feud with EFL, weak squad, uninspiring team management, pandemic.... yes, there will inevitably be some loss of interest.

When do we play the cones in training? You never know, if they go down to ten we might have a chance.

Live footage of our accountant going through the numbers: 

It’s something I’ve internally struggled with for a few years now, pre Covid and the EFL/Mel troubles…and maybe not just a Derby thing, but football on the whole, I just don’t get as excited as I used to.
Maybe it’s getting older. I became a dad recently too, so a bit more pipe and slippers. I actually prefer listening to the game on RD than going. 

The thing that comes to mind is the Mitchell and Webb sketch where David Mitchell implies, by way of a faux Sky ad, that Football never really ends - and I feel that a lot. Sky and the digital age mean it’s information overload 

I also feel a bit spent from Mclaren’s first spell. That was like football heroin. The highest high. Not just the football, but the ease and rate in which Cloughs neatly assembled, but fits and starts team - became so entertaining and alluring so quickly. Still in hangover from that. ‘Why can’t we always improve that quickly’……?
it might just be me. Don’t wanna be an eeyore. But in answer to the post, to some people (I.e me) it’s not just Covid, or the precarious nature of the club that’s stopping me from going.
 
But I’m a fickle sod, so if Jags comes into a back 3 on Wednesday and we start playing like PSG then I’ll start to waver….??
