Christ, we really as desperate. Our recruitment has been utterly depressing this summer.

None of them would get into this Derby team. They're too old.

oldtimeram got a reaction from Hector was the best in v Wigan (H) Match Thread
Well that was not good. The defence was ropey to say the least and we have no real attacking threat.
We are not going to get out of this league playing like we did today
Ward looked like the only player capable of putting in a decent cross but Warne took him off?
Can't work that one out
We desperately need a striker now

This is it for me. We seem to have have done decent work with the defence and acquired specialist wingbacks but we look weaker in midfield and attack options.
Obviously it's not over yet regarding loans and such but overall it seems to be a step backwards for me and I think we'll struggle with the squad at this moment to better last year's effort. Other than with Rams tinted glasses I don't see how folk can see this side as head and shoulders better than last year and a shot at he title when we were 22 points short of even the 2nd automatic places last year, never mind the title.
It feels like playoffs at best IMHO and I think we'll do well to get that so would need to consider it a decent effort. I'm worried that some folks expectations of what this squad can or should achieve does not reflect the severe limitations that we continue to operate under. I really don't want to see anyone baying for Warne's head because we're in 7th at Christmas when they expected us to walk the league for some reason. Hoping for automatics is one thing. Expecting/predicting it is quite another.

Bolton and Pompey for me. I don’t think we are title contenders unless we bring in two or three more

oldtimeram got a reaction from Carl Sagan in Never go back?
He cost us loads of points in his last season with us, with his awful blunders.

oldtimeram got a reaction from norwichram in Never go back?
Ok I may be being a bit harsh saying he was awful, but I remember too many blunders by him.

Why don't we ask Roger Davies to get his boots on again? Similar ages

oldtimeram reacted to dantheram in Jordan Rhodes - gone to Blackpool
Huw Jenkins did us a massive favour with hindsight. The guy essentially never played again after busting both knees, even ended up in an artificial coma at one point.
It seems even the mention of a transfer to us can inspire the gypsies curse....

Oh dear. That’s a blow for some folk - Collins scores.

oldtimeram got a reaction from derbydaz22 in Is our budget any bigger than last year?
I think you are probably spot on. I am disappointed with the forward line links so far. Defensive wise, I agree with you that we should be a lot more solid at the back
