Archied

Met and chatted to a few of your lads in the motorway services comming back from the Bolton game , thanked them for beating posh , we agreed to take a draw at Fratton with us both taking the top two spots , smiles all round and fans heading home from a great days football results , 
best of luck and class reaction to the story of our Daniel , respect to you my friend 👍

I'm sure Max will want a promotion on his CV to cap his time at his boyhood club. 
To suggest he won't be committed to this shows no respect to him.
I just wouldn't risk him for this game, save for some minutes at the end.

Agreed and Bird has proved pretty consistently that he is fully focused on the Derby cause until he leaves and I imagine would absolutely love to be part of two big wins to close out his Derby career.
Anyone questioning his commitment to Derby is way off the mark IMO.

They have, I’m not saying we shouldn’t use them, what I’m saying is we also shouldn’t ignore Bird (or Hourihane for that matter) if we find ourselves needing a goal and the combination of Adams and Smith isn’t working.
Why would we limit our options just because the players we currently have available won’t be here next season, whatever gets us the points to go up is all that matters to me rather than feeling slighted by someone’s future career plans. 

Love it but feet on the ground and focus time for warne and the lads ,,,, jeez we are so close though ,,,
do it and this will be one of the most enjoyable seasons I’ve had watching derby 

Totally agree with your second paragraph. However, whilst it would be more exciting to finalise promotion at home on the last day, for the sake of my heart, I’d be quite happy if we confirmed promotion at Cambridge. 😀

Open conversations are not the done thing these days Alf ,,, extremists on both sides of every argument can’t have they’re views challenged because in the main they know they can’t defend theyre position so name calling and shouting matches are the modus operandi

Sometimes yeah, maybe but this is not an example at all. She deleted the tweet herself once it became clear that she was 100% wrong, and left totally exposed as having said something hugely prejudiced. She wasn't "shut down" or "cancelled".  And this is from someone who is very vocal about perceived anti-semitism (to the point of also shooting herself in the foot when she said that she "didn't look like a typical jew"!). You'd think she might be a bit more aware of religious stereotyping
There are certain topics where we really need to all learn to think about what we are about to say before we say it.
Sadly some people seem determined to say controversial stuff just for the publicity

I have such mixed feelings. I can see the view of those who just don’t like our current style, yet what is fundamentally wrong with using wingers and getting the ball in the box ? It’s simplistic but it’s not kick and rush and I would challenge anyone who suggests it is. We have some intelligent players. Then dial in that this is L1 with the level touch, consistency and quality defined by that league  - which when lacking (which it is sometimes) makes silky tick tac midfield interchanges a bit of a lottery. Warne has adopted a style that best suits the skill set and consistency of the squad we have. The optimist in me thinks with a step up in quality there is nothing to say PW won’t change his preferences. We won’t know until A .. we’ve seen what’s available in new players, B if we can afford them and C if they want to come. For me he must have at least half a season to prove himself. And … can we honestly criticise him if the funds / players / opportunities are not there for him to adjust his current working model. ? 
 
The football hasn’t been electric but it has been entertaining, puzzling, awkward, frustrating and occasionally exciting…in equal measure. The clicheed suggestions from certain quarters that it’s crude or “Warne ball” are limp, inaccurate and unfair. 
 
We need some youth, we need improved touch and skill quality and a striker that scares people. The rest is fate but it’s 50 years since we could puff our chests out and really justify it on the field of play against all comers. That isn’t PW’s fault. 

Ooch ,,,, is somebody a bit hurt by derby doing well 

I am 58 and still get so nervous during important games that I have to turn the tv/radio off and wait until the games has finished and then finally summon up the courage to get the result. My dad is the same, a Saints fan, and he is 86 🤣🤣

Things have gone well for derby last night and it looks very much like promotion, you’ve come on here and seen lots of happy derby fans and gone ,,,, right I will put a stop to that , it really is that obvious, it happens ALL the time 
there are some that are not keen on warne or what he brings but they are a different kettle of fish🤷‍♂️

Sorry but you constantly make it plain what you feel about derby county in your posts 

Are you being held captive, tap once for yes.

Not sure what your evidence is but I hope you trust mine as I've worked a bit on this.
After 46 games the average percentage of lucky/unlucky games net for a team is precisely 9%. The maximum is over 20% -hard to believe I know. This is based on the standard +2 clear chances aggregate worthy of a win.
The average discrepancy to the chances/goal average is 0.35, the maximum over 1. These can all be positive or negative.
You understand what the above mean in terms of points, goals and league positions at the end of a season.

We came out of admin with 6 rostered senior pros and just missed out off the back a non-existent pre-season, with a cobbled together team. That team is now challenging for the autos in our second season since facing liquidation, all achieved while under soft-embargo and an enforced business plan too.
You can sneer all you like, but some folk are actually proud of how this club has turned things around, a notion you clearly find hilarious.

And yet

It’ll be a last-gasp attempt at mind games. He obviously won’t be telling his players that, they’ll still believe they can do it.
Really, the only way they get past us now is if we get so over-confident that it’s done, that we don’t go into games at our maximum effort.
It would be a disaster from us to throw it away from here, but I guess Evatt has to do anything he can to influence that.

Fair enough, that is your take on it, see @Nuwtfly post about 'enjoyment'. I enjoyed last season more, that is my take on it. I can't be bothered to explain why it will only lead to more personally anti posts about me rather than the football.
I'll be happy to be promoted, and now I'm looking forward to next season. #COYR

Well I guess the Prem teams like Chelsea have found out that having a good manager to spend the money is just if not more important. We're down in League 1 because we had points deducted not because we bought bad players or were out played. 
I enjoyed last season more than this, and if this season ends in promotion I'll be glad to get out of this League.
