Lighten up people ....NEVER forget , we nearly DIDN'T have a Team to follow 🙄

I’m still scarred by the time we played Reading at home on the last day of the season in 2015. They were safe and had nothing to play for and all we needed was a draw to secure our spot in the play offs and finish 5th. We lost 0:3 and ended up 8th.

I can still remember the optisim 

We can spin this game however , they have nothing to play for makes the game easier , they have nothing to play for makes the game harder as they relax and play with freedom , it’s all just spin though ,,,, it’s a tough game we need to win under pressure,it’s that simple ,
get our backsides into pride park and help the players to get the win we need , the players get out on the pitch and give everything they have to get the win , the level does not matter as I’ve watched derby in these type of games at every level and the feeling is the same
come on derby 💪

POTS - McGoldrick
Flop- Collins
Most Improved - Wildsmith. Technically not improved in a Rams shirt, but his stock has risen no end this season.
Unsung hero - Bird. The midfield ticks when he's playing well.
Best signing - NML. Could so easily be playing Championship football.
Best goal - Hourihane vs Oxford. Not the best in football terms, but Derby were back.
Best games..not been away enough to comment

May have been very different had they not hit the post first half...

Well done today, I’ve just had my very own Super Saturday. New grandson born this morning, Derby win and I saw this lovely man pre match who very kindly let me take his picture. 

Their lad scores instead of hitting the woodwork 10 minutes in and we've got an uphill struggle. That seemed to spark us though and no idea how we only got 1 goal today. Should have had 4, minimum. I feel like we could give someone a spanking if the stars align.
Bring on Pompey.

I appreciate my seat as well  because it has a number on it that tells me where to stand all match long!

The missus asked me if I'd got any plans for Easter.
I told her yes, the same as Jesus.
I'm gonna disappear Friday lunchtime and turn up sometime Monday........

Elvis Costello's new Mediterranean Sausages are fantastic......in fact I think Olive Salami is here to stay.

It's a 50:50 game. They battered us for long spell at their place, and they've got motivation without pressure.
It'd be very Derby to lose this one. I'll be watching through my fingers.

How far off being the first manager appointed 'to the end of the season' to be sacked before the end of the season?

I’m posting this through gritted teeth, but well done to Derby for a much needed win last night. I thought the first half was very poor from both sides, the only notable moment of quality was the save by your w**ker of a keeper from our header, that was unbelievable. Second half you stepped it up, played a bit better, scored a decent free kick and then a second as we got sloppy, then saw the game out despite us having a bit of pressure in the last 15 and getting a goal back. 
 
I can’t have too many complaints as I knew we’d lose when I saw our line up, and I said that before the game as my mate Rowls will testify (hi Rowls 😉) as we had several key players out with injury and nothing up top (a 17 year old making his full debut and a bit-part striker who is getting back to fitness). Got to say though, I wasn’t impressed with your team, although it’s probably not surprising given how low on confidence you’d have been in your current run of form, hopefully last night will give a bit of that back to you and you’ll improve from here on in 🤞
Regards your fans, hardly heard you at all but imagine you’ll say the same about us, it’s the acoustics. No doubt we were all singing, but couldn’t hear each other. I hope you all enjoyed your visit to our city and the real St James Park.
And final word to your keeper. What an embarrassment of a man he is. I get game management, taking your time with goal kicks and throw-ins, etc (and we’ve been pretty good at that at times this season, including in the 0-0 at your place), but this guy was just a cheat, plain and simple. The incident when our tiny left back ran up to him, your keeper turned and they touched shoulders and he then threw himself to the ground and asked for the trainer to come on was one of the worst bits of cheating I’ve seen. The referee should have sent him off and kicked him up the arse on the way off for that. Or maybe I’m being a bit sensitive. Either way, the bloke’s a w**ker. Sorry.
Anyway, good luck for the rest of the season, please get into the play offs and beat argyle. I’m off to see my therapist having got to bed less than 5 hours ago, waking up and then coming straight onto an opposition fans’ forum. My name is FBH and I have a problem.

Dragged ourselves over the line, but I'm afraid we aren't convincing me yet. Hopeful rather than optimistic of getting 6th.

Thought that was in Greece?

I don't massively care how we line up. We've played well and played badly whether it's a 4 or a 3 at the back. I just don't want to see Collins running through treacle to bounce balls 10 yards off his first touch like a dog with a balloon.

At this rate he'll be the first manager appointed until the end of the season not to make it until the end of the season.
