    Think the ref did get it wrong. But don’t think Warne should be deflecting attention from his inability to work out how to find the right balance between experience and youth. Part of his problem is he’s too close to some of the senior players 
     
    Would like to have seen him make changes at half time so as to sit on the 1-0 lead, whilst threatening a goal on the break. We’re good enough to control possession against that lot if he puts the right bodies in the right places. 
     
    First half against Shrews is the only time in the last ?6 games where we have seen the potential of this squad. That’s down to the manager

    I do remember Darius Vassell almost losing a toe by trying to drain a blood blister under his nail with a Black and Decker hand drill.  That one has stuck with me.

    Not heard the interviews post match, just the comments in here.
    That's 2 games running we haven't reacted to a change at HT by opposition,  resulting in 2 goals each in next 20 minutes.
    The management need to see the weaknesses being exploited and attempting to fix from the bench, yet again too late last night, we needed energy in midfield to try to slow down their attacks, Thompson should have been on for White to break up play, although I was concerned at the line up and subs before the game started, away from home against 2nd place and we chose to weaken the midfield by taking Smith out, and to not even have the option to put him back in mid game with Rooney not even on the bench (should have started) was a mistake before a ball was kicked. With Sibs and Dobbin on bench Springett should have missed out to get him in the squad, we seem to deliberately weaken the team for these big away games, that's 2 on trot away from home.
    Starting to concern me the lack of response from the bench mid game, especially when we know Warne wants high intensity play, you need to be proactive with the subs.

    Tell the players not to go route one at every given opportunity.  You can change tactics without changing players.

    I mean we play these twice. HT Leading 2-0 and 1-0 and get no points. Shocking really..but tonight was a 1-1 game just a cheating player and another joke ref made the difference. But. We did nothing at 2-1 to get back in the game. Just like Shrewsbury they changed tactics at HT and yet again Warne did nothing to combat it.

    Nowhere near as strong as our first half against the Shrews. Best chance of winning is 1-0. Plymouth have been rubbish up front but our defence has not looked strong, Smith and Roberts in defence looking off the pace. Will Warne lose the halftime battle for a second time?  Bring on Dobbin to trouble them on the break and we should   then sit deeper. 3 at the back would not go amiss and make changes to give us more legs in midfield

    3 points vs Wendies = 6 (for us, 2 for Plymouth and Ipswich)
    1 point vs Shrewsbury (H) = -2
    3 points vs Wycombe = 600

    Yesterday must have been a real bummer for Rams fans.   OK it favors us and say Bolton also but they'll be no gloating from this end.  This league is tough - for want of better words - it's a real nasty division to get out of, maybe like ourselves you thought it'd be easy and we'd make it back at a first attempt.   You know, big club names that were successful in the 1970s and got League Championships to their name.    Unfortunately It doesn't quite work like that.    
    I understand the hurt of scores like yesterday, nothing disingenuous, teams like Derby County or indeed Bolton / ITFC don't really deserve or seem out of place to be in this s*** league but it's been a mess of our own making.      Make no mistake it's tough to make it back, don't take it the wrong way or anything but suppose Derby don't get a promotion this year, it could take maybe another 2 or 3 seasons - maybe more - to achieve it. That's the reality.
    That's not a criticism, just from someone who knows what a task it can be - or is - to escape League One status and make it back to Championship level.      You got Plymouth Argyles in your next game if correct, guess a number of our own fans shall be rooting for you as we got to take any and all points Plymouth may drop in the final weeks run-in.     It's the only way other club names will get an opportunity.
    In all probability Town and Rams won't get an automatic promotion, I'd like to avoid you in a play-off situation, our record is beyond lousy and I think a two-game event would favor yourselves as past experience dictates we just won't make it.
    I see Davey McGoldrick is scoring plenty for you.    He didn't do much for us in that capacity although spent a lot of time on the injury roster.    He's become almost a new player of what some can remember.     I wish you well in team endeavors for the Plymouth game.

    Yeah the idea that refs and the efl have an active conspiracy against us game by game is getting a bit silly. Refs are just poor, sometimes for us and sometimes against.
    bottom line is standards have dropped a bit over the last month, that’s why have fallen off slightly. Whether that’s tiredness or a quality issue the main debate.
    don’t think we’re one of the best two sides in the division so is hard to think we should be getting automatic. Let’s finish strong and have a go at the play offs. Next season needs to be all out push for top two though.

    It was a penalty. Soft because there was no need for it, but a 2 handed push in the back is a foul..
