I’m just pleased as it looks like our days of being bullied out of the points, by teams like Stevenage, are behind us🐏🐏👍🏻👍🏻

Perhaps if we started stalking Mbappé, he'd join us too.

I think we have a very solid defence and better than average attack that will tend to score at least once per game even in turd games. That will get plenty of points.

All but signed. Papers sent off to EFL yesterday apparently.

Blimey @sage and @jono falling out. Bloody Paul Warne. He has to go.

Knee ligament damage, says Warne. At least not before mid-April. That's the very earliest.

10 points ahead of that Peterborough super team who ‘looked levels above us’ recently.
Is Paul Warne actually overachieving?

Forum moaners moan
but I don’t give a duck
cause we are derby county 
and we are going up 💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪🐏🐏🐏🐏🐏🐏🐏🐏🐏🐏

peterboro 1-2 blackpool

Absolute joke again..small time manager worried about massive Stevenage!

We will be winners today regardless of the score.
Having this bloke only ever sat in the opposition dugout and not the home team at Pride Park is a win. 
 

Maybe not, but the DET match report of his debut is still around online... in which they praise his touch and control. So yeah, you could see his ability to control the ball and his first touch from game 1.

I’m indifferent to the topic and part of me wants to understand it better, but the other part can’t be arsed as I’m 50 and have many better things to do with my time.
Also I have got to a life stage where I only care about the Derby County games and don’t really have any interest in football apart from us. Especially premier fing league. Not watched a PL match (even on tv) since we were relegated in “that season”.

This is a great interview with Jake. He appears to be making good progress with his injury, as well as becoming a guitar virtuoso! 
 

Chris Martin was not particularly special during his initial loan spell.

Reckon it’s a tough game tonight and the forum an even tougher read if we get anything less than 3 points ,

@Andicis it’s not just you, but you are the most recent culprit. 
I don’t get this constant need to discredit the league and the teams within in it. It’s league football and each league every season is tough in its own way. A new season brings change, new opportunities, new variables and also new challenges.
You take it for what it is, surely? 46 games. 3 points for a win. You don’t get an extra special trophy for getting promoted one year over the other, do you?
Shall we forget the open top bus parade, the medals, and the ticker tape because we are playing Blackpool, Reading, Northampton and Orient rather than Ipswich, Wednesday, Morecambe and Forest Green?
Or shall we bow out of the promotion race altogether and wait to test ourselves against the might of QPR, Rotherham, Wednesday and Stockport? 
Eye test this, eye test that. The eye test will show some good and some bad, of course it will. We are currently League 1 level and everything points to that. Ultimately we are a work in progress. You may want to ignore it, you may want to qualify it, but there is progress nevertheless.
Look at this season itself. We’ve gone from getting 21 points from 14 games earlier in the season and looking barely like a top half team, compared to 39 points from 17 games most recently and now being amongst the main contenders for promotion.
Everyone wants to focus on the fact we are not Man City Lite. Everyone wants us to be more like Peterborough and Oxford (who are stuttering and seemingly slipping out of contention might I add).
No-one wants to give Warne and the players credit for finding the belief, character, and consistency to turn the season around and no-one wants to give Warne and the players any credit for showing even more character and toughness to dig in and continue getting results to keep us in the hunt while those much-fabled footballing sides begin to fade.
Yesterday could still be a very important point.

Positive #1. 2nd in the League 
Positive #2. I have been too busy to come on here since last night and get irritated by the bed wetting posting minority who want us to be Ipswich re-born and anything less is not good enough.

We picked up a point and 2 better goal difference on Peterborough. 
A team that was promoted in September (Oxford) failed to win. 
And 2 teams promoted in January (Peterborough and Bolton) failed to win. 
Adams is looking like a decent addition.
Cashin will be back soon
Washington will be back soon.
We have yet to unleash CBT.
 

For me go with a 433 formation, our wingbacks did nothing yestetday, and go with 2 widemen
                  Wildsmith
Nyambe.    Nelson.     Cashin.  Elder
                      Adams
                Bird.               Hourihane 
CBT.               Collins.       NML. 
This team will bring the 3points home. 
All those who are going roar us onto victory, great following, hope you all have a great away day. 

Just 3 mins needed to go 1-0 up against the league leaders who have won every game this season.
