    Derby County vs Exeter City (H) Match Thread

    For what it's worth, I like the back 4... just need to find some structure in midfield.

    Bird and Hourihane have played alongside each other regularly in the past (not that I was a fan at the time, but it was better than what we have now!)... Sibbo at number 10... give youth a chance with Dajaune Brown starting up front.

                         Wildsmith
    Nyambe  Nelson  Cashin  Forsyth
                    Bird  Hourihane
    Mendez-Laing  Sibley  Barkhuizen
                           Brown

     

    Oh and keep the round thing on the bloody ground ffs! 🤣 COYR 🐏

    Anyone else still willing to give this time? Don’t seem to be many on the forum.

    I don’t think we’ve been that bad (albeit I wasn’t there yesterday). Sounded like we had some good spells in the game though and we’ve had some brilliant performances (Peterborough, Blackpool)
     

    Big squad turnover in the summer so willing to give it chance to come together. We’ve had some bad luck with injuries and decisions which will hopefully turn. 
     

    I think some of the anti-warne sentiment is the immediate anger of losing to so-called lesser clubs but, unfortunately, we were always going to lose games across a 46 game season so no need to panic 

    He's had over a year and we seem to be getting worse. My patience has gone at only getting 1 point out of 6 against Cheltenham and Shrewsbury.

    Angry fans/hourihane 😬

    I think the counterpoint to that is, if you're having to consistently rely on a top-class striker taking the one chance that comes his way to win a game, then there's something fundamental going wrong elsewhere.  Obviously we'd all love a proper goal-scorer, and no doubt the recruitment in that area has been questionable etc, but we've still got 3 senior strikers who have all scored at reasonable-ish rates at this level or higher before, and plenty of others in the team who've shown they can chip in too.  The fact that they aren't scoring at those kind of rates this season has to be down to how they are being used.  You can't just shrug and say "nothing we can do, no striker", as a manager you have to find a way to work with what you've got.

    We've got someone with the potential to be a good striker (at least at this level) sitting in the youth team unable to get a league minute. We know what we get with Collins and Waggy (who IMO are both past their best...)... why not give the unknown a chance when we obviously need to try something different... and it baffles me that PW seems so against the idea!

    Some abuse there towards the derby players and chants of Paul warne, your football is 💩

    Here we go......

    DC has the decision to make... hearing your fellow Rams fans shout that kind of abuse and chanting against the manager has got to make you seriously think!

    We've got a couple of winnable home games coming up in November... ideal time for someone new to get the measure of who he has to work with.
