Welcome to our forum. I have soft spot for Pompey and Bolton after everything that’s happened to us three so I really hope we are the three that go up ideally 2nd for us. I hope you thrash that ambulance chasing cockroach today. Wycombe are worst than forest in my eyes 

League one, what a s*** show of a league it is. It's a tough league to get out of. This is our 7th season in league one, and we spent the prior 4 seasons in league 2. 
Like yourselves we have been proper turned over by owners in the past. 
So it's 11yrs for us in the bottom two leagues. 
Not counting my chicken's, because 3 of the past 5 seasons we've been top of this league and blown it. 
You'll be hard pressed to find a pompey fan that thinks promotion is guaranteed this season. We're only two defeats away from blowing it. 

For those of you who have been to fratton park before, you'll find a complete transformation of the away end now. 
It's been transformed and now has safe standing, plus you can now buy alcohol, which up until a few months ago was prohibited. 
Fair play lads, you've sold your allocation, so look forward to 2,000+ rams adding to a great atmosphere. 
The match is a complete sell out, so crowd should be aproching 21,000

Evening lads. Looking forward to our match next Tuesday. 
Think we'd both be happy with a draw?

Topped off with the mile, starting at The Derbyshire Yeoman!  
127 pubs in 249 yards.  What's not to love!  Hic! 🍻

I always like to visit the assembly rooms, the eagle centre, duckworth square and the pink coconut....
 
But then I don't think I've actually been out and about in Derby for about 25 years....😉

Watching a game on telly is never the same as being there, they have got slow motion and replaying incidents over again and different angles. At the match you see the incident once and that's it, that's why I would rather be  at the game if possible. By the way my husband is an armchair fan and me, season ticket holder and his remarks when I get home you would think we were watching different games🤣

I'm not suggesting he would have, but as he was flat out on the deck, facedown with a defender and the goalkeeper on top of him, he couldn't have retaliated if he'd wanted to.

It needs a rule change that I've mentioned many times. When the ref blows the whistle for a corner, play becomes active and not when the kick is taken. 
It would stop all the wrestling very quickly.
 

Even Jesus christ would have snapped playing the ginger weasel and the dirtiest,what a horrible club they were under revie,remember st francis and hunter

Were you there watching? No, so you're just guessing. 
As @Crewton said, there was a lot of holding onto our players all through the game which the referee was ignoring. I did see that. 
Doesn't forgive what follows. 

Yes  careful management and who knows there might be another 2 seasons in him even at championship level. But he has to be at CB 
He is the ultimate professional and a fantastic player to stick youngsters next to 

Why are people preferring Ward over Wilson at RB? Neither are defensively amazing but Wilson has looked more solid there to my eyes (and gives away less penalties).
Playing Wilson at fullback gives him the space to use his greatest strength- progressive dribbling, whilst Ward as a winger would still be able to utilise his crossing. Given that Wilson sometimes lacks end product, this way round seems more sensible to me?

Despite it being impossible, as they all play each other, I expect our four promotion rivals to take maximum points from their remaining games, while we fail to pick up a single point for the remainder of the season.
We finish 6th and, despite getting our hopes back up by sneaking past Bolton in the semis, we collapse in the against Lincoln in the final at Wembley blow a 2-0 lead to lose 5-2. Sending 40,000 Derby fans home unhappy, as 378 Imps celebrate promotion on Wembley Way.
Meanwhile, Leeds and Leicester claim Automatic promotion to the Premier League, and Nottingham Forest escape relegation by a point on the final day.All three go on to finish top 10 in the following season.
In League 2, Wrexham are promoted and proceed to spend £300m to assemble to strongest third tier side of all time, meaning that recently relegated Birmingham city have to settle for second place, as the Rams miss out again and head to Wembley to eventually lose to Rotherham. (Who are by then managed by Conor Hourihane)
 

What makes it worse for me is I'm fairly certain Paul Warne said something along the lines of "Sonny doesn't want to be playing league one football, he wants to be in the championship."
Could you really see him playing championship football next season? He's got to be one of the worst technical footballers I've seen for a long time. At least the likes of Darren Moore and Curtis Davies would always win headers. I'd stick with Nelson and Cash for the foreseeable.

Very easy to come here and sneer about people overreacting and piling onto players but people are genuinely angry with Bradley for his stupid antics and let's be fair, Warne probably is too.
Irresponsible behaviour from a player so senior and yet so juvenile at the same time.
This is the bloke that wanted to walk into the club and be captain right?

Weston for the last 20 against tired legs would be my call. Will only work when we are playing on the break but he is much better at avoiding the offside trap than Waggy or Wash! And he can finish.

Great perspective. Thank you.

Hi Rams, I commented on the reverse fixture when you battered us earlier in the season so thought I would do the same just to give some context from the other side.
A very different game to the one at Pride Park earlier in the season. The San Sixfields pitch is much smaller which definitely helps us, particularly against the big boys in the division. We have taken a pasting of pretty much all of the teams at the top of the table away from home this season, whilst at home managed mostly narrow defeats instead.
No doubt that you should have scored at least one of the two chances in the first half, or at the very least worked the keeper, one of them goes in and you dont lose the game without a shadow of a doubt. The game earlier in the season you were picking holes in between our midfield and defense with ease, also NML pace was a constant threat. However in this game were clearly more compact and outside of those opportunities it didn't feel like you created a huge amount of clear cut chances. It was noticeable that you were much more direct this game for whatever reason, which I am far more confident of us deadling with. I know you have a number of bodies out, but we have 10 out (mostly in defence) so the injury list was similar on both sides.
I thought the goal was a really well taken finish, definite foul in the build up but the defending after that would be pretty poor. Your full back (Wilson I think) also definitely handled it in the second half with no one around him. 
I sit in the end where Bradley got his red, he definitely put his head in. Don't get me wrong i dont think Monthe is going to require a trip to the hospital but unfortunately you have to go down to almost bring it to attention. Thought it was poor from a guy who is that experienced and was seemingly always looking for physicality in the game. Yes we tried to slow down the game, no doubt about it. If i was an away fan I would be furious and hope the ref would stop it. But to add some context our season has been petering out to a degree with mid table safety and clearly our manager has given them a rocket pointing out there are still points to play for, there was not a lack of effort on our point despite little to play for seemingly. To be honest we are doing about as well as a club our size could be expected to do, as we were on of the favorites for the drop.
I hope you go up, clearly a huge club that should not be at this level (plus dont want Peterborough to go up). I am guessing there is a big split in the fanbase over the manager, that was evident by the booing of one of the substitutions which you don't expect from a team that are fighting for the title. As a completely neutral observer Warne to me sits in the Gareth Ainsworth esque category of managers. Likeable character and personable, but with limitations at a higher level and in developing a more free flowing style, it dosnt seem like the best fit. Playing Pompey and Peterborough recently (both away so different challenges I guess) but they seemed much more composed in their style of play and just seemed to have more ways to hurt us.
Hopefully your injury woes ease up a little and all the best for the rest of the season.

I was wrong. So what, I didn't sign him, our manager did and takes every opportunity to shoe-horn him into the team.

He obviously must have meant Curtis Nelson

Why didn't we play in white?
