    That was really bad. The ball was in the air far too much for which both sides were to blame. 
    Unfortunately we are not very good. Living some distance away there is no way I will travel to watch our football. It's tv only for me I'm afraid and that saddens me.

    How frustrating is it when Wildsmith catches the ball and just holds it for 30 seconds and then hoofs it long. Bowl it out quickly, get the play moving. It's so slow and ponderous.
    Charlton in the first half were absolutely dreadful, and yet we created nothing. It can't go on like this. 
    We haven't played well in months, we've just been going through the motions and scraping past poor sides. I'm fed up. Call me entitled, we deserve and should ask for better.

    As mentioned before can see next season L1 being  a much tougher division to get out of L1 specialists Rotherham and teams like Charlton under Jones will be up there 
    let’s get this right no matter what your opinion of Warne is …this division is really poor this season I don’t even think Pompey are that good so this season is a big missed oppurtunity if we don’t go up ….we are no better than any of the sides in the top 6!!!!! And I think with a bit more emphasis on control in games we should be 
    Wildsmith was very rash tonight and substitutions were poor and couldn’t understand moving Cashin to LB ….bizarre

    Awful result. Awful performance. Awful starting line up.
    This result has been coming for a while. We simply do not create enough chamces/shots on target & the appalling ball retention is to blame. I'm gobsmacked some folk thought we played well first half...we really didn't. It was a series of aimless hoofs & misplaced passes, Charlton played much the better stuff. We look to have regressed technically & its a concern.
    Still can't believe how few attack minded players we started with tonight. The blunt reality is Kane Wilson isn't very effective in the final 3rd so when it was apparent Mendez-Laing was having a quiet game, our attacking threat was reduced to very little. We are 2nd in the table & at home..we should be looking to dominate a team 5th from bottom with their poor form. What happened to this so called 'gung ho' Warne style? Looks like reheated Billy Davies 'snatch & hold on for dear life' to me. Massive improvement needed from here.

    He might still take us up.
    But I can not wait till we have a manager capable of taking the game to a team and not switching to a back 5. 
    The problem Mr Clowes has right now is season ticket sales will be hit.

    Bird has been good recently but he was poor tonight …some may blame Ebou for second goal but he covers so much of the pitch and puts his body on the line he’s the first name on the team sheet in midfield for me also thought Sibs and Waggy were very ineffective Korey Smith was good tonight

    What are these players being told to do in training? Surely it’s not get it out wide and hope NML can pull something out his backside for hours a day? Cos if it’s not that then we’re either praying for a set piece or a bit of magic from somewhere. We’ve created absolutely nothing against a team that haven’t won since November.
    We turn every game into a scrap as if we’re the underdogs which of course suits 90% of this torrid division down to the ground. Why play around them when we can try and out-battle teams that haven’t got half as much talent as us? Baffling.

    The sad thing for me is that I doubt there's any Derby fans who would have been truly shocked if before the game you'd have told us that we'd be outperformed by a team fighting relegation, and whose last win came in November against Cheltenham.

    It won't happen, and probably shouldn't as we're near the top of league, but we're rubbish. We're a slightly less rubbish side in a rubbish division, and I'd happily see Warne go. I can't stand the football, it's dreadful.

    I've switched opinions after this game. Something needs to change:
    It's too late in the season to change the players. The manager wont change the tactics, so it's time to change the manager.
     
    We're walking into another season in League 1 and I think everyone can see it. If there's people out there who think that's acceptable then I'm not going to argue with them, but just state my opinion: I can't see us gong anywhere like this. We're second by virtue of Barnsley and Boltons inadequacies, not our own strength.

    Pragmatic is a choice word that a lot of people use, but by very definition I find it is actually synonym for how Warne approaches football strategically.
    Pragmatic, to me, would be more Rosenior - with Cashin playing 140-odd passes backwards and sideways, attempting to move players out of position. Safe, controlled, usually with limited risk. 
    Warne beats the drum of chaos, nothing about how we approach games is controlled and therefore can’t at all be described as pragmatic.

    Yes, we were terrible tonight. 
    We were absolutely dire for 60 minutes. 
    Nobody is asking for total football, but we're getting the worst brand of football I've seen at Derby. It's crap. There is no entertainment. We aren't bringing through youth, we are building towards a style and getting better, we're all over the place. 
    Being second is not a compliment to Warne, and more a criticism to every other side. We're not a good team.

    There was more of a 'feelgood factor' when we faced extinction.
    Being second under Warne, with the dross being served up, is demoralising.
    To me, it's not even about results (though they're not what they should be against poorer league one squads), it's about entertaining football.
    This is a long way removed from that.

    Why Oh why do I keep doing this to myself?

    I keep thinking to myself that, surely Derby can't be that bad, the next game will be different.
    And, sure enough, I am sat at home, I have paid my tenner to the club to watch online, a cup of tea in hand and it is dire.
    I don't care what Warne apologists say, the football is terrible, terrible, terrible...

    We've just made Charlton look like peak Real Madrid, although, fair play to them, they have discovered a little hack that I wish we knew, it's called passing the ball.
    This is depressing sh!t.

    I get what you’re saying, but there comes a point when serious questions have to be asked - especially when we capitulate to teams languishing near the bottom of what is an extremely poor standard league. Our disturbing inability to maintain a lead, along with the dreadful standards of protecting the ball lead many (me now included) to question the man responsible for our approach.

    I just find it so hard to get excited about our club right now. How was a relegation battle more enjoyable than us being 2nd? 
     
    Maybe it’s because our manager was squeezing every last drop out of the squad we had vs what we are seeing now. 
     
    The pack mentality helped a lot.

    The chances of Clowes sacking Warne with the team 3rd and less than a quarter of the season left, are almost zero. 
    Does anybody remember a club doing something like that?
    If it helps people vent to call for it, then fair enough. But Clowes would look like an idiot to the rest of the footballing world irrespective of whether if it's the right long term decision. The optics would be terrible for the club and owners do usually care about that kind of thing. 
    I doubt we miss the play offs, but like others, I doubt we can hold it together for 3 playoff games.

    I'm disappointed he's still our manager, yes. But it's clear he's not going anywhere. He'll not be here forever. For now the best thing I can think of doing is supporting the team, and trying not to let Warne tarnish my love for this club.

    Utter garbage. Team not won for 22 games come to team chasing auto promotion and win. Bye bye autos. We are simply not good enough. We've clung on to 2nd place, but in truth, we simply aren't good enough nor worthy. Playoffs at best.
