Archied got a reaction from DiggerB in Viktor Johansson
Poss downside for wildsmith is his distribution and a bit of a blind spot for giving the ball straight to the opposition or putting our players under real pressure with short stuff , we got away with a lot because the level of finishing in league 1 was in the main quite poor , we would be punished far more for that in the championship

3 wins in they’re last 13 matches when in the hunt for play offs and having brought some real quality in in Jan isn’t great but we also know January influx can upset the apple cart as much as improve the team/ squad , hull obviously have owners who are happy to splash the cash in the prem poo or bust gamble and we all know results are the only metric in that scenario,
all useful experience for rosenior who is a decent bloke and has the potential to go on to be a decent manager, only time will tell if he can fulfill that potential

He wasn't sacked by Derby, he was the interim manager who they decided not to offer the permanent role to.

Clowes always said "competitive" budget", he never once to my knowledge said there was a lot of money available for transfer fees, nor did he say we had the highest in the league.
The EFL lifted restrictions for us to spend money, however we still had to stay within the budget agreed and although there was money available as confirmed by PW as being left over from the summer budget, we wasn't allowed to spend that on a permanent deal, instead we had to loan a player in to get around the agreed plan.
Therefore I can only assume (guess) that it wasn't that easy for the club to bring in permanent deals using a transfer fee regardless of money being available.
No one knows for definite what his budget was, for wages or transfer fees, they are only guessing. However I don't think PW has once moaned about it and not only that but delivered a record points total, record games won away and was it goals scored as well 😏
Irony is that I have seen on social media today a lot of Derby fans saying LR sacking was harsh as although he has the budget not the time, the same ones wanting PW gone after 2 months of the season 😏

As far as I can see the manager had a certain amount to spend , he chose to spend it on wages rather than fees in the main , we obviously had a decent budget for the level , seems to me warne used it well to get the job done and let’s not pretend ,, getting back to the championship as fast as possible was really important, the man got the job done whilst breaking records and giving us days like Carlisle at home and some fantastic away days for the faithful and despite the claims of the style of football driving fans away no matter what division we ended up in it seems st sales are very healthy and there’s a feel good factor around the club ,,,, we all know toppish end budget garuantee s nothing unless you have a manager and coaches capable of using it properly,
there’s no one I would pick above warne to have a crack at the championship next season as derby manager

Archied got a reaction from Miggins in Paul Warne
Nope , not pointed at you , in terms of speaking about one thread it just kind of clarified in my mind what I felt at the time , there were a few posters at the time ( don’t remember you being ott ) who were just as I say swamping every thread with warne out stuff plus constant new Warne out threads every ten minutes , there were many who just got worn down with the whole thing , you couldn’t even enjoy / celebrate a vital win regardless of perceived performance on a match day thread and some of it was outright bile thrown at a manager trying to do a professional job ,with a record that actually gave no one on here the right to call him a clown , pe teacher , David Brent who couldn’t attract a player or keep the players already at the club onside ,,,,, it was pretty bad and pretty non stop 🤷🏻♂️

I am happy to drop it , the bullying thing ? I don’t take it personally I take it seriously as it’s the kind of thing that infects every area today , it’s a very sad tactic to throw out false accusations of this kind of stuff then just refuse to back it up , so yes move on

The same as you , I’ve seen the glory days and for me this season is right up there , well actually these last two seasons in the context of admin all taken together ,,
football is more than football , my wife and daughter have come to games since admins and it’s been great , we have shared so much , we got two extra tickets for Carlisle so my wife and daughter could both come and bring my daughters boyfriend, there was the bit of sorrow that my eldest daughter who had season ticket when both daughters were small is no longer with us in person,
football is shared emotion , we will remember the day , the season , the emotion , we won’t remember what division we were promoted from , we won’t go back over the style of football we played ,
the last two seasons have been great , a bond between generations in families , happy times shared ,
that’s just how I see it 🤷🏻♂️

Archied got a reaction from Mick Brolly in Paul Warne
Not really , that thread , that thread ?,
this forum was made pretty much unusable for a fair time , a new Warne out thread every ten minutes , every other thread invaded and turned into a Warne out thread by a very determined few posters ,brow beating , swamping people who just wanted to support and read about derby county and happy to be patient with the manager, eventually people got sick to death with it and started to fight back against this aided by the sterling job it was becoming clearer and clearer Warne was doing ,,,then what ? A rewrite of history and veiled accusations of bullying ,,, really ?
some really need to take a long hard look at the state this forum was becoming and the behaviour of some posters who were brow beating the hell out of people on virtually every thread🤷🏻♂️

Proper names become proper names only by the passage of time ,,, for instance as someone who has always sat in the east stand since pp was built it will always be the east stand to me ,

That's a good point. 👍
How many of us remarked we were off to The iPro a few years back?
Not many, I suspect. (I'm pretty sure I never did!)
