    Ambitious got a reaction from Sufferingfool in Tyreece John-Jules   
    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. 
    I’m counting this one as a done deal already.

    Ambitious got a reaction from jono in Max Bird   
    He’s not been given a proper run of games, but what I really like the bits I’ve seen. I think he has a lot of potential, it wasn’t long ago most people had him down with Nyambe and Nelson as our best signing of the summer. 
    Bird, I feel, gives us too many 6/10 games. He isn’t impactful enough. No doubt he’s a technically good footballer and he obviously is a great character around the club. He’s a good player for us, no doubt, but it wouldn’t be difficult for us to sell him and improve the side IMO. Similarly to losing Knight, ironically, the guy we picked up as part of the deal has come in and been much improved on the Knight we saw and had last season.

    I would be fairly relaxed with allowing Bird to leave for funds to spend. 
    He’s a good player technically, but has absolutely struggled to consistently to provide an impact for us. I’ve really like Fornah from what I’ve seen and honestly don’t believe we would lose much, if anything, losing Bird to give him more game time.
