Part of the problem for me is we are playing too many unexperienced players, don't have the right target man and we give the ball away for fun. If we get Bielik, Lawrence and Waghorn back with a new striker and the problems persist then we'll be well within our rights to start asking questions of Cocu.

You're not really responding to the point I made, but I take the one you make. The point, actually, is that while Cocu has done all of the above the results and, more worryingly, the style of play lead some to conclude you wouldn't be wanting to give a manager money to spend when many on here believe his time is up (not this forum decides but you get my point).
If Mel is giving him the cash it suggests he still believes in the long term plan and we can close the 'Next Manager' thread for a few more weeks. I actually hope Mel is right and I'd love to see a bit of faith and composure but it's totally forgivable to not be in that mindset after what we all saw at the weekend.
There's much to love about the plan - academy, stability, growth - but you would have to be more than naive to not notice that at the moment that the one element that is missing is the one that really matters, being able to win a football match.

Dur sun has scored a hat trick,
hip hip hip horay,
Dur sun has scored a hat trick smashing forest all the way.

Nobody had ever heard of Paolo Wanchope before he signed for us, so the "Well I've not heard of him" criticism is plain daft as far as I can tell.
If this is real and if he does turn up he should get a fair crack, on paper he looks like he could be good. Worth a punt.

But he didn't want to accept our offer and stay here......
He's GONE .......MOVE ON !!

This one isn't a panic buy. This is someone they have watched and worked on. 
Goal every 168 mins last season. 

I hope you're joking.
19 goals and 6 assists in 36 appearances in all comps (16g 6a in the league in 34 apps) is a brilliant record. he's exactly what we need, a big striker to hold the ball up. Will be cheap (1-2m) & is quite a strong bloke.
He would be fantastic for this team. 

Great to hear, it is so important for the next generation to meet and shake hands with the genuine legends of Derby County, there will never be another set of players who will win not once but twice he premier league ? Or play in european cup semi finals, they will be revered and given the kind of respect that Steve Bloomer gets nowadays, just a shame that the club doesn’t use more of them to promote it and remember them whilst they are still with us, not when they are gone !

Bobby Moore and Trevor Brooking.....it’s was rumoured that BC put in a bid of £500k for the pair!!!!
