    And yet without his contributions so far this season we’d be worse off. Can’t you see objectively that he has contributed to the teams position in the league? Yes he could have scored some chances that went begging, but if he hadn’t scored or assisted others we’d be worse off. It’s hard not to think you’re just on the wind up when the majority of your contributions to this thread started after we conceded and I reckon the vast majority of your other posts are just attacks on one player. IT IS A TEAM SPORT! The team didn’t perform well enough, Dobbin couldn’t win the game on his own today any more than Collins, Mendez Laing, McGoldrick, Knight, Hourihane, Sibley et al, yet he’s the only one you single out AGAIN. It’s so tedious.

    Whilst the results tonight mean everybody's rearends are now twitching, I honestly don't think it was even that bad. Just tired/old/slow/young/inexperienced. Struggle to see what else you can do to make the midfield more competitive. Effectively had two DM's in there tonight and we got nowhere near them at times. 
    Fine for 59 minutes, even weathered the "storm" after HT. But momentum changes games, they got that from another Derby mistake. A s*** corner and a terrible penalty decision later and the games turned on it's head. Subs gave us nothing. Dobbin and Springett seriously lacking in quality. Collins completely ineffective (as was Didzy tbf). Plymouth the better team without having to create much, just more athletic and much more quality on the ball.
    Luckily for us we don't have to play Plymouth every week. Oxford, Fleetwood, Forest Green and MK Dons in our next 6. If you think we can't pick up enough points to stay relevant then fair doo's. I'm not too confident we'll make waves in the Play Offs but I think we're more than good enough to get there. Hang on in there chaps and lasses.

    This team lacks steel and grit. Some decent enough players, but we need some hard men in this league

    Performance levels understandably dropped off 2nd half after working so hard in that 1st half. What is worrying is that we don't seem to be able to change the momentum in games at the moment. 
    However we didn't deserve to lose that. A spawny deflected goal and a dubious penalty was the only difference.

    Fair play to them going all that way on a Tuesday night. Well I think it was Tuesday morning they would have had to set off tbf.

    There could be a solution with the same players that started today in  different positions. Move Knight to right back, put Smith as the DM protecting the back 4 then get Hourihane and Knight as the pressing/more attacking midfielders. I know it wastes some of what Knight has but we need a solution to the midfield conundrum for sure, we’re like a creme egg at the minute, soft and gooey in the middle

    People really do forget this. Warne inherited this team of renegades. No buying power. Most on loan or freebies. Hardly any players are his choice. We also forget we nearly didn't have a football team this time last year. I despair with some so called fans on here

    Looked as if Warne was going straight off but could have been bad camera angles and focussing on Plymouth who obviously just qualified for Europe. Please tell me staff and players came over to you fans? Well done travelling fans - wish so much they could have done it for you. Did yourselves proud could hear you throughout. Safe travels

    Our midfield is too open. Need the skin rasping tackle of Sibley in there.

    It is, but the sentence structure/tenses need some tweaking. I’d prefer “the Spanish have not been keen on visiting Plymouth since ” .. I am no grammar police but “are” and “since” is a mess ! just doesn’t work. 
     
    Anyway, love having visitors on the forum, especially those with wit and humour. Life and death it may be, but this is sport and waggish banter is part of the game ?

    First match in a couple of years…due to living here! If you see a 40 something being escorted out of the home end as he couldn’t keep the celebrations quiet due to the winner…give me a wave?

    "Manager Warne, who is taking a small break from his burgeoning bobble hat and podcast empire to be at the game, brings a side that has the least away wins of any side in League One promotion race."
     
    "Missing, in all probability, will be the latest additions to the Derby fan club, Fernando Battilon and his family, who adopted the club after playing them in Fifa 23 career mode because they liked the club badge....The Spanish are not that keen on visiting Plymouth since around July 1588!"

    Here are the highlights of the game against Alfreton https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sBVlqQAfhIs and the Dirties u21 https://www.dcfc.co.uk/news/2023/03/u21-highlights-leeds-united-3-0-derby-county.   
    In a moment of weakness during a boring meeting, I looked up what the local Leeds press had to say about last night's game and they gave the impression that their u21s had given a performance that would have left the 1970 Brazilians open-mouthed in admiration.  The highlights tell a slightly different story - they took their chances, we didn't and we gave a couple of goals away.  The stats on Soccerway (or was it Flashscore?) also suggest that it was a fairly even game, but then of course you prove anything with stats.
    Kido Taylor-Hart definitely looks a prospect, somewhat reminiscent of Ebiowe.  Let's hope we can get him signed up permanently.  Overall, I suspect that the Alfreton game will be much more beneficial to our lads with regard to their development, not because we won, but because of the physical battle that it seemingly involved.

    Having had bowl and prostrate scares and having the camera checks every year for 3 years cut down to every 2 years now not at all, just a blood test every 12 months for the prostrate, and told to monitor myself if i see any sign of blood contact the Doctor. They took a polop which was growing inside of me over 4cm long, you have no idea they are growing inside your body for there is no pain.
    Check your pee any sign of blood however slight contact your doctor.
