Whatever Clowes has done, and we're eternally grateful for what that, the appointment of Warne felt strange but it's looking to be awful. While tonight was grim, it wasn't particularly out of character or surprising, it was utterly predictable. Promotion or not, he's not the future

Yes. I want the t*** gone.

Yep, he's an old fashioned manager with one goal and if doesn't achieve that.... We're out thought most weeks, unfortunately.

Going to save this post, just in case anyone ever asks me what 'mardy' means. Saved me the explanation, cheers.

Because Brighton were 500 short of selling out....

I probably disagree - I don't want Warne to stay whatever happens from now until the end of the season. His ceiling is L1, I've seen nothing to suggest he can succeed at a higher level, he's not a young manager, what's the point?

Can't be the only one looking forward to Evans' reaction 😁

I don't think anyone, anywhere thinks that Warne is a tactical genius.

Yep, in a nut shell.

This - I was definitely on the Warne needs time team earlier in the season and I'm certainly not advocating sacking him but I've come to the conclusion that this is Warne's team and his way and I don't think it's terribly encouraging.

We could have had Kane and Shearer in the squad last few games, wouldn't have helped....

That's the thing for me, he's not very intelligent, you can hear it when he speaks - Can't recognise and react to things happening on the pitch. We may fluke it out of L1 but a) I'm but confident of that and b) We'll be f***** at that stage

Couldn't be arsed to type any more! 😁

Sorry but everything to do with Warne, they're an utterly confused team and it shows. We know what Cash and Bird can do, it's down to numbnuts to keep them at it

s*** against Burton, s*** against Lincoln, uber s*** against reading, cheers Paul

This is Paul Warne's ceiling, top few of L1. I've been optimistic almost every season for years but this bloke drags me down. It's miserable football that belongs in the lower leagues.

Unfortunately it'll be the same manager who isn't very smart.

In challenging your assertion that "He's someone who is well respected in his area of work and works with facts" I was referring to his alleged phone conversation with an employee of the club where he learned that Morris "still has boots on the ground". He is implying that it's someone we don't know about - It would hardly take a secret phone call to learn that Pearce was still there. I certainly don't think he has any particular axe to grind with Derby (and who would care, he has no influence) but to claim he works only with facts is not how I see it.

What about his last comments on Derby, that Mel Morris has "still had boots on the ground"?

You're overstating him slightly, he's an accountancy teacher. Professor he most certainly isn't, expert in football finance only in his own head.

What a strange individual he is, one might thing he's a narcissist. I don't want to knock teachers but on this occasion it shows the difference between teachers and professionals.

He's not the future. I've no idea how tonight will pan out and, obviously, the rest of the season but I just cannot see him as as a progressive, top 2 divisions manager. I say this as someone who was firmly in the 'give him time' camp a few months back

That's become my concern about Warne, he's not actually very smart, easily out thought.

Yep, let's batter the marmite lickers 😆

👍 We are imperfect.
