I would never criticise our owner. He saved us at the end of the day and no one should forget that.

Completely agree. This is not consistent with the total Support we all gave the team and club during administration. 
I’m Warne out and have been for most of this season. But I’d give David Clowes a big hug and say Thank you if i met him. 
please let’s be totally thankful still. What he did for us was historic. 
 

DCFC = David Clowes Football Club 

I understand that when the football isn’t pretty, and the league position is dire, football fans will inevitably lash out. However, I am amazed that there are a good number on here tonight slating our owner. This is a staggering state of affairs even for our club, only some 15 months since he saved us.  Cool it down lads. 

Would be on phone to Frank and Jody saying we have no money, I cant you pay much but you've got unfinished business here and a managerial reputation to rescue. Do it the right way. But that wont happen. 

You have a very short memory me owd. Slagging Mr Clowes off after he saved the club from extinction ? Poor form, very, very poor form. 
You a multi-millionaire are ya…? Thought not. 

I’ve had time to cool down and reflect on the situation.
get him out now 
for everyone’s sake

At family event in restaurant below street level with no signal for match. Just read thread through all of this thread. Even after a few pornstar martinis performance sounds a stinker. I havent read a single positive comment. Very sad for Clowes and us that its come to this but a leader needs to own his mistakes. we are going in reverse and Warne & Co need to go. 

..but i do like the idea of a cheeky call to Graham Potter..

Very sorry to say.   No and it’s a shame. 

I want it to work for Warne but his time is running out IMO.  I’m not calling for him to go but it’s getting inevitable as lots of fans are getting very impatient now. 
What can I say .

I think Stormy Daniels would do a better job than PW.

Is there a crowdfunder set up to pay off Warne’s contract?

Also seen one or two referencing “clownes”, this is also bang out of order. We owe him enormously. He’s just a fan like us who had the wherewithal to do what we would all do. Despite seemingly getting wrong with warne he’s still our saviour 

I think he has given this club the very best shot he could.
If it's not enough, then fair play. He has done his best.
But he is not a 'clown'. He certainly is not.
I really hate seeing this term leveled at him.
Whatever your opinions of him, please think before you post unkind comments.
Yours, Prissy Miggins
 

I can see this thread about the Stevenage game is in danger of descending into a Warne out thread, do you reckon we aught to start a 'Warne out' thread and discuss it further in there?
 

Steve Evans has turned Stevenage into a more competent team than Paul Warne has Derby on roughly a fifth of the budget - without the benefit of a category one academy to utilise. 
We’re both playing the same type of football, they’re just better at it. What a sad day in the history of this club. 

I'd take an upturned mop with a face drawn on it at this point

Johnny and his team in the play-offs. He scored two last night. 
 

Shame to see so-called fans labelling our own player as 'dogshit' and other choice terms. By all means call him out on the game, but is the abuse really necessary? He's a Derby player after all. Some on here might like to consider how they'd feel if they were being assessed in such charming terms for their efforts at their place of work. Whatever you think of his ability, he's still a Rams player and entitled to a modicum of respect from us fans as such. He's also 5 from 13 in the league this season, which is far from the horror story some of the drama queens on here portray. Hard to imagine, other spitting on the badge or flat out throwing it in, what would actually warrant terms like 'dogshit', but missing an easy square pass certainly isn't one of them. And this after we've won the game too!
Likewise Exeter - without fail, every time we win, we get a chorus of "well (insert club name) were by far the worst team we've faced all millennium" type comments. So f****** tedious. Last night, Oxford were beaten by a team languishing in the bottom 3 and Portsmouth could not muster a goal in 95 minutes against the mighty Cambridge, which more sensible heads might think tells you all you need to know about this league. The fact is, we're a league 1 team (as was evidenced by our failure to secure promotion last season) and right now we're playing like one, as often as not. The very same people who sagely pontificated on how hard it would be to get out of this league, are some the chippiest ***** on here now we're struggling. Get in the bin!
As for the game, the result was never in doubt. I thought we looked comfortable, pretty much throughout and were more than good value for the 2-0. They tried to play football, which was a pleasant surprise, but we were very good without the ball last night, harrying and pressing well and you could see their last vestiges of hope evaporate with the second goal. On the rare occasions they enjoyed a little possession, we kept our shape brilliantly and never really gave them too much hope. I think we look as good as any team I've seen in the league defensively speaking and we have a decent quality midfield if we can somehow keep Max healthy of mind and body and in good form. Still short of that explosive goal threat, though if we play like we did last night, we've enough to trouble most sides.
As for the result, it could and maybe should have been 4-0 and without the interventions of the myopic linesman, it might well have been. Surely that is worthy of more than begrudging praise, if any. Let's be honest here, there's no such thing as a 'routine win' for a side with our current home record! With 'routine' help from the officials, more often than not we conspire to turns 3 points into 1, or none at all, so let's not pretend otherwise, eh! 
Moving forwards, I hope that this is not another false dawn and that the attacking line-up is deployed against all but the best teams in the league, where a more circumspect approach is perhaps understandable. While I think we're a long way off Championship quality right now, we do have a strongish squad for L1 and we really need to be ensconcing ourselves firmly in the top 6 sooner, rather than later. Meet that milestone and we can then set about trying to reel in Oxford and / or Pompey which is a far from impossible feat if we can just add some consistency to our game.

@Owen87ITK proving he is true Ram - on 85th minute and 2-0 up as we take a free kick - "this to make sure"

Spot on Angie,my thoughts exactly, especially in respect of fozzy,I thought he was our best player last night.

Lots of people saying Exeter were dire - they were last night - but they had 20 odd shots on Saturday against Wigan so maybe we made them look dire? 
A similar side to us in many ways, I thought. They wanted to play football, not very physical (although a couple of their subs were solid units, they were warming up down in our corner!) 
We showed greater desire than them last night, with our players chasing down every loose ball. 
Two big differences for me last night - Waggy's hold up play and a balanced midfield. NML worked so hard, Bird ran the show, and Hourihane mopped up. 
Shout out to Fozzy, who played a key pass in both goals. Where he finds the energy from I don't know, but he's definitely taken over the Mr Derby County role from Curtis Davies with some style. 
Appreciated a referee who largely let the game flow, helped by two sides who weren't more intent on fouling than playing the ball. It's a shame that the lino got the offside wrong because a 3-0 scoreline would have been a better reflection of the game and give more confidence going into Saturday, which I expect will be much more attritional than last night.
COYR! 

Agree Angie, I thought Sibley did ok tonight. Nothing flashy but he worked hard and made it possible for Bird to push on. He was solid and did a shift for the team.
