    So you want to scrap the national news in favour of keeping an hour show on a Monday night talking about Derby?
    With that, I'm out of this conversation.

    Looks very attacking. Who is going to break up the Rovers play? Sibley “ Out of favour” with another manager.

    Judging by some comments people aren't willing to give Warne's football much of a chance to see where it could go

    Our quality or lack of in the final third was really damning. Got into a few promising positions first half and some in the second but then the final ball either through player skill or composure was absolutely non existent.
    If the tactic is that were going to score goals by pressurising the opposition and forcing mistakes then Ipswich didn't read the script last night and other teams might not be so generous too.
    The only really difference between the 2 teams is that we gifted Ipswich a goal and a penalty on silver platters whereas we huffed and puffed but they to their credit gave us nowt. We were never going to score from our own endeavours if we had played for another 90 minutes. 
    Some of the comments about Warne already on here I imagine from the Rosenoir sycophants are really quite pathetic if not tediously predictable.
    Obviously the novelty of winning 2 away games which we never even looked like doing under Rosenoir isn't enough for them but hey ho fill your boots lads if it makes you happy.

    The meltdown on here ?one mistake when we were well in the game. Ultimately they had a bit too much for us to break down but it is just one game and I’ve seen a lot worse it is not easy to forget Cocu ball! Just a reminder last week we won 3-0!

    We can't spend in January on the EFL business plan, our only option is sack the manager and get one in that will work with the players we have.

    I think they have been alright, not great and not helped by the system. But they've been absurdly hyped over the years ('good enough for the Prem' etc). Let's be honest: they are struggling to make an impact in League One.

    Sibley in particular is a player everyone seems to think is brilliant based on a couple of good games 3 years ago. They whinge when he doesn't start and when he does he does absolutely nothing. For me him and Bird are completely average players who are made out to be more then they are simpy because they are from the Academy.

    Are people more worried about the performance or the result?
    I look at this League and I don’t automatically think we’re going to get anything away at one of the best teams in the league. I want us to do well and hope we get something, but I’m a realist and don’t expect to win every game and so don’t have a massive strop when we don’t.  
    Context is everything and our context is that we have a new team, a new manager in a new league. It was always going to be a struggle this year no matter what people thought. I also fully expect a trip to Ipswich will be a struggle too.
    It isn’t pretty at the moment. The only surprising thing is that anybody is surprised.

    This Bird and Hourihane midfield is killing us right now. They’re both too similar and neither likes to ‘get stuck in’ means the midfield can be super aggressive towards us and pretty much run through us. Also why are we so insistent on pinging the ball so wide but no one’s in the middle. Painful viewing so far and feels like we just expect to beat any teams because we’re ‘bigger and better’ than them.

    I am not going to argue with any of the remarks here. Everyone is entitled to their opinion.
    However having served for 35 years in her majesties military (and worked bloody hard in some pretty sh!tty places) even if I retire at 67 I will not have worked as much as she has REIGNED. She has reigned for 70 years - let that sink in (much more than most will ever work) 
    The difference is, she NEVER had a day off. Imagine having to get up on a cold winters morning, having to put on your make up, get dressed immaculately and do your duty, instead of turning over and saying 'stuff it I am staying in bed'.
    I personally think that missing one game in 70 years as a mark of respect is little price to pay. After all that game will still be played, she will never return.

    Can’t stand the term “woke”, overused now as a way of dismissing someone’s opinion.
    It’s not woke to not want to be surrounded by huge clouds of toxic smoke.
    It’s not woke to disagree with fans running on to the pitch, fans that in recent seasons have started to attack the players we pay to see.
    It’s not woke to not want to be surrounded by coke heads.
    It’s also not woke to hold the opinion our songs and chants would be better if they supported the team rather than abused the opposition or even ex players that haven’t even played for over 20 years. Yes I’m talking about Stan Collymore, the guy we sing about randomly in games where even the opposition have no connections to Collymore which I just find utterly bizarre.
    The game has changed, we do have more families and women attending games now that enjoy the game and want to do so in a safe environment.
    I couldn’t tell you want the atmospheres were like in the 70s or 80s, it’s not the Baseball Ground and I have never been chased or chased opposition fans down the streets of Pride Park but I can tell you that even last season at times I had goosebumps.
    We haven’t had atmospheres like it since 13/14, it’s not hard to see the connection between 13/14 and 21/22.
    The fans were united, together.
    So rather than alienate sections of the fanbase, why not continue to create an atmosphere that ALL fans can enjoy and get behind the team.
    Regardless of the lyrics, the South Stand can look and sound great in full voice singing about Stan Collymore, although doesn’t come close to when the whole ground is rocking to a chant that even those enjoying a picnic in the West Stand, or the families over in the North stand join in.
    Again, not a woke view.

    There will still be an atmosphere, just a different way of creating that atmosphere. What some consider banter and goading some consider otherwise. The banter nowadays seems more personal,yes i have stood on the popside chanting at away supporters they were going home in an ambulance etc.
    As others have posted it doesn't happen in other sports and the tribalism is still there.

    But didn’t the system work? They went through various checks and measures, including the fit and proper persons test, but when it came to the last one, show us the money, he got cold feet and pulled out. So surely something in that last test caught something that was missed in all the others, that’s why it exists. So the point is, he didn’t end up owning us, so the system works. 
    the depressing thing is how much time was wasted coming to that conclusion.
