    Ambitious got a reaction from jono in Owen Moxon ?   
    Moxon was a player who intrigued me the most after last season - first real season in professional football and he was by far and away the best player in League Two. 
    I think he's obviously not had the same impact this season, but playing in a pretty poor, seriously underfunded side, in League One makes it difficult to shine. I'd like to see us roll the dice on him, who knows what he could be if afforded the chance of good-level coaching, top facilities, etc. 
    We know full well that he would come in and dig and fight every chance he got for an opportunity to play. If he could take that next step, as he did when he moved into professional football, then he could be a player for us. I've always like a central midfielder who gets himself involved in every single aspect, from tackles, interceptions to shots. He does it as well as anyone else in the league without the quality in supporting cast.

    Ambitious got a reaction from Carl Sagan in Wildsmith   
    Wildsmith was poor in the Oxford & Peterborough games. I think when you have an experienced keeper on the bench, you have to give him an opportunity to win his place. He's had a few games now - done ok, but probably should've done better in some situations. 
    I wouldn't be surprised to see Wildsmith come back in at some point, personally. I'd probably go with him against Lincoln. 
    Keep the standard as high as possible - conceding two against Burton probably falls below that standard.

    Really good old fashioned centre forward play to put NML in for the first goal. He's got a bit of quality, needs coaching up a bit and game time but glad we've got him until the end of the season. We could definitely make better use of his technical ability in and around the opposition area.

    Ambitious got a reaction from Caerphilly Ram in Derby V Burton match day thread   
    We really lack control in games, even the ones we play well in. We are susceptible to being punched in the mouth, so to speak. Burton did exactly that despite a fairly relentless and dominating performance up to that point. 
    It would be nice to see us slow the game down at times, recycle possession and make the other team chase shadows. We have more than enough quality in the team to make that happen, but it’s just not in our make-up under Warne and it will be our undoing at times - like Peterborough. Still, another win, so 10 in our last 12 in the league? Not all have been hugely convincing but I guess you have to credit Warne for that production - a more cautious approach probably leads to some of those being draws, etc. 
    20 games to go, we need to keep this form going as long as possible. A few extra bodies would help!

    Their manager confirming our bid, him being left out of the side and reports that no issues with personal terms tell me that this is very nearly done - especially if what BT said was correct that he’s already been shown around.
