I'll be the boring one and reply just as I would to B4.
Is this not a little too early and should we not wait until we know what division we are in next year?
The difference between building a Championship team and League 1 team are huge. The loan opportunities are vastly superior for the Premier League youth talent.
Not only that but we need to see what we have left in the cupboard before we go shopping. 
This is a perfect topic to bridge the gap between the end of the season and the Euros.

The Paul Warne "Out Out" and "Pro" topics have been locked in favour of a single place for discussions.
This is it.
I would ask members to refrain from opening any further topics with in/out or similar in the title and continue to post their opinions in here, regardless of result/league position.

You ought to spend more time painting - then we wouldn't have to read your tedious, puerile drivel.
It's utterly pathetic the way some Derby 'fans' come across.

EAT THAT MOANERS!

How about merging this thread with the pro Warne one and just calling it 'Warne' for example - both threads include mixed views after all.

Another myth that doesn't stand up to scrutiny.

I am sorry but how is us possibly getting promoted to the Championship under Warne in any way comparable to us getting promoted to the PL the previous time over 15 years ago?
In 2008, the board and the manager were reportedly at odds and the board were seemingly unwilling to invest in summer 2008 to improve the team sufficiently. We couldn’t compete with the other promoted sides never mind the 17 others. The step up to the PL was huge back then. Is the step up to the Championship really anywhere close to that?
Consider that Clowes appears to be nothing but in full support of Warne and consider that once the restrictions are lifted and with the additional revenue streams to follow from promotion, we’d be able to compete financially with anyone else who gets promoted and probably around 6-10 other Championship clubs as a fair estimate. Surely that’s a far better place to be in?
What’s there to stop us from improving and adapting to the Championship well? Not only footballing sides do it. Luton and Coventry did it. In fact, if you look at Wigan, Barnsley, Peterborough and Blackpool as recent reoccurrences, it’s footballing sides who more often tend to go back where they came from.
This fearmongering is outrageous. 

Agreed. Plus, we didn’t lose two points because Nyambe went off. We lost two points because the team on the pitch failed to deal with the passage of play that led to their goal. Some people seem to be implying Nyambe is our only decent defender and if he’s not on the pitch we’re doomed if the opposition attack down our right including relatively harmless throw ins.

Absolutely. More idiocy from a truly inept tactician. Rancid football - predictable and ponderous in attack . All the clapping the fans and trying to become the next Ian Holloway with media friendly antics  cannot hide the fact that he is a truly terrible coach . We should wipe out Shrewsbury ( themselves an appalling team ) with the players at his disposal .What does he actually do all week ? 

For what it’s worth I agree with everything you have said!
Have held off coming on the forum tonight as I imagined it would be awash with negativity after today’s result. Yes it was disappointing….no it is not the end of the world!
From what I have seen attending all home matches this season there is little to choose between teams in this league. Most players across the board including ours are Div 1 standard and the football as a result is often poor, again ourselves included. We have however proved hard to beat and won a fair few games hence we are second. Narrow margins have won and lost us points. 
Attendances have remained astonishing and do not reflect the few on here who are feeling unable to attend. In reality this forum reflects the opinion of very few of our 26,000 core of support which is reassuring. 
Warne deserves to see the job out which this season is promotion. If it does not happen then is the time to decide on his future.

With comfortably the lowest budget in the league each time. Got them looking reasonable before we took him, they stayed up in some way due to the wins he got early season, they’re now marooned at the bottom their normal position in the championship. 
 
I’ve said I’m not convinced he’s the man to take us forward in the championship but in case we need reminding - we’re not in the championship are we? 

Just a reminder. Paul Warne also has a 100% record of being relegated from the championship at every attempt

Anyone driven away from a promotion campaign to try and get out of a god awful league where every team sees you as a cup final and make everything a scrap, to be honest we’re better off without them. 
Seen enough decent performances and glimpses of us trying to play but lots of teams try to stop us playing. The Paul Warne style of play thing is a myth down to peoples perception of his time at Rotherham from those who never wanted him here.  Apparently the ball is in the sky more than on the ground at Derby these days with Paul Warne in charge. Not what I’ve seen. 
It isn’t Steve McClaren football, nowhere near, but we’re in league 1 still under restrictions, people need to stop comparing us to what we used to be. Yes we want to get back there and is he the man to do it, Jury is definitely out. 
In my mind it is bonkers we are having these debates on Warne when we’re second!! Just bonkers. 

Besiktas aren't Barcelona either but they do have a lovely Black and White scarf it seems.  😂

A good nights football results for the rams 🐏 👍🏻
 
We are still second 👍🏻

I've been thinking that too and would happily watch another disappointing hungover performance if we were guaranteed a top two place before kick off 🤞

Something keeps nagging at me ,,,,,,, I was at the last game of the season v Carlisle to see derby crowned league 1 champions with the title already in the bag before a ball was kicked ,,,, life often has some strange coincidences with things written in the stars 🤞,

300 million quid to be below Luton. Incredible.

Ashton Gate is always rocking when he goes, it's because we're there!
