Team selection was poor last night-not sure if Hourihane and Smith have the legs for 2 games in a week-Should have been the perfect opportunity to give Robinson and Fapateu a chance at least for 2nd half

If i were Weston i would be totally disillusioned now -unless Warne has explained his non appearance -last night i felt would have been an ideal opportunity to give him at least 20mins

Not only will Steve Bloomer be always watching-so will B4-Lets chase Pompy down

Such sad news-an absolute Uber fan - I’m sure after today’s performance he would have posted Pompy we are coming for you- he had unwavering belief.

Really good sportscene reaction today -Very honest with the summary of the situation and realistic questioning of Warnes management

The worst memory was the semi final against Manure, losing Charlie George with a shoulder injury and yet another dodgy refereeing decision against us.

I’ve always seen that game as the start of our decline- I really believed we would win that year- if only Charlie hadn’t been out.

Nyambe is a tricky one- definitely improved our side and should be extended but may miss a chunk for the African nations cup

The game we lost 3-4 to Villa was a superb game-one that just sticks in the memory

I'll answer this in one word "NO"

Absolutely agree-cant even get decent crosses in the box the majority of the time

You would get a better crowd feeling if we had academy players on than a supposed team of pensioners who have had promotions walking around a pitch not giving a damn. I’ve never been so angry at an away game for stevenages third goal at the half arsed attempts to put in a tackle close down play etc. give me a mixture of academy and first team players that lose that game but at least put a shift in and look to have an identity about there play. 
 

 

Trouble is we are rebuilding the Academy-Results for the younger teams haven't exactly been inspiring and it maybe harmful throwing them into a league full of seasoned pros who take no nonsense.

I am hoping weve learnt something from the last transfer window where we struggled to get deals over the line-I assume the Cashin deal could take place with a loan back till the end of season which should generate some cash.

So weve had a statement-time to show a bit of support during the games-Few play better in a toxic environment-Boo at the end of the game if its crap but dont enter the ground just waiting to start booing.

How would our fans react to this run of results from Eustace.?

Decent interview from Stevenage boss on their Youtube:
 

Speaks highly of Derby as a club and squad. Also speak highly of Paul Warne, which might help his confidence if he's been reading this forum lately. 🤣

Derby speak around 5:30 onwards.

Not sure what the bugle is about

Went up in my estimation with this

I would have thought Mansfield V Wrexham would be one of the picks-chance to interview Ryan Reynolds

Sibley needs a new club for his career to move forward 

If Warnock is so great why is he being let go? Is he bored or does his style have a very limited shelf life-is his style exiting?

Time to move on-need to get someone on the rise than go back to the old guard-unfortunately that means taking a chance like Ipswich with Mckenna 

Waggy Waggy Waggy-Oi Oi Oi

I would imagine there’s plenty of rethinking after the injuries-the budget planned for 2/3 now has to stretch to 3/4 -probably means additional exits to balance the budget 

Some total dross under Addison - this doesn’t touch that low yet

Can’t understand the support forSimpson -a manager who was sacked byRochdale,Preston,Shrewsbury,and Stockport -

Keep the drum and get rid of the pathetic Collymore chant etc Let’s have more supporting our players and less abusing the opposition supporters-at least they have turned out-fair play to fans like Blackpools who came last week. I just shut down with that- only want to encourage us. I’m sure many more will join in especially from East stand etc with those

Listening to the pundits on FL72 podcast they were saying what good business we had done getting them in 

I think ,unfortunately there have been people who did not want him from day 1-no real idea why but after any downturn in form/performance and bad results they will immediately hit the keyboard and generate /stir up anti Warne comment.A few are saying the jobs too big for him -why he has proved on three occasions he has the credentials -the thing different here is the expectations and lack of patience by some of the supporters who believe we are a bigger club than we probably are. Shouldn't a big club get more than 7000 for a competitive game.? 

We do need more players and im sure they are working behind the scenes to attract them but in the situation we are we may have to accept that the quality of player we would like doesn't want to drop down to League 1 or agree to our cash offers.

What dissapointed me last night was the lack of energy and chasing down which has been a positive since his appointment I hope nothing has gone on within the dressing room as i do think once the players are in the roles and playing the way he wants we will be ok.

Still 135 points to play for-probably 90 should see you go up this year so a long way to go-there will almost certainly be a meltdown in some quarters for each of the 45 points dropped.
