Pleased to have Ed back. Love his passion, he is one of us!

I don't think Fozzy will have stupid wage demands so for me we have to sign him up for another year. For his contributions off the pitch for as much as on it. Plus we can alwqys rely on him CB or an emergency LB.

Did someone say the Rams are going up?

Unfortunately the world we live in, I’ll give it a month before some disrespectful moron comes along and adds their own stamp on it. Wouldn’t put it past one of those down the A52 to make a special trip.

That's my biggest fear.

I realise he's not the most popular, especially on here it seems, but that was as heartfelt as it gets. He's a fan too. 

Bravo, Ed.

Love Eds passion. Derby through and through. Pleased he's back on the radio!

Agreed. I loved how sibley ran into the crowd as many ran off the pitch (not knocking those who did but more impressed how sibley went in). He wants success for us so I’d have him in even if he isnt as effective as he has been the last couple of months. As for wildsmith, as a goalie myself I like his style. He dominates the box which a few ex Derby keepers haven’t. He makes the odd mistake but which Derby player hasn’t this season. The golden glove is down to him AND the 2/3 in front of him but he is a good keeper. Not prem quality so he should swallow some pride and stay on.

I agree. Sibley bleeds black and white and we need to keep characters like this in our sqaud. It also shows those in the academy what you can go to achieve.

Wildsmith is a fantastic stop stopper and a massive part of the best defence in the league this year. I feel he would be a solid keeper in the championship.

Agree with those two, there’s a couple of others I’d like to see offered deals as well, overall I’d go with extending the following players’ contracts;

Wildsmith

Sibley

Smith

Thompson

Robinson

Barkhuizen

Collins

They’d give us some continuity and squad depth alongside those contracted beyond the summer, then we could add some shiny new players to strengthen further.

I agree with all of the above especially Sibley, Wildsmith, Thompson and Collins. Smith would also be a solid versatile sqaud option. As for Barkhuizen it would depend on his wage demands.

It's important we keep the team cohesion so we can't and shouldn't go silly replacing most of the team.

As the dust starts to settle on an amazing day when do we expect to see the retained list? Particularly interested to see if Sibbs and Wildsmith have been offered new contracts.

We have to offer Sibs and Wildsmith new deals for me. 

Will there be an open top bus celebration?

Ebou Adams and Cameron Brannagan would be decent! If we can afford them...

For 2 tickets that's an estimate.

It could well be especially if we get promoted.

I think we will ultise 343 and 352 next season (depending if we want to go for it on the break and stretch teams or control more of the possession).

One of the best keepers we have had for years. I would be offering him a new contract.

Depends on your financial situation and whether taking a £100 hit affects you.

Do we know that they will be going up by a £100 after Friday?

Would we bring Will Hughes back home on a free? If he didn't have silly wage demands of course.

And Nyambe in a back 3.

Oh course Nyambe as well. He could slot in at RB in a back 4 or at the right side of a back 3.

Everyone in the city should have a bank holiday !

We want Ebou. Ebou wants to be at Derby. Let's hope Cardiff do the right thing...

If we do go up, and trust me it's still an if for me remembering that Reading game, Nelson, Cashin and Bradley will be perfectly good enough for a Championship back three. We were in that league long enough to know that. It's fantastic to have an actual threat from set pieces.

I agree. That's one area of the pitch we don't need to change. Then hopefully the likes of Fozzy and Rooney to stand in when required.

Taylor has such a punchable face. Not that I'd advocate any violence at all of course.

Horrible man

Lyle Taylor you are a vile man. Forest reject...

I’m not sure you’ll get anything in the post so, don’t wait.

To renew you just need to go online (your new price and confirmation of your seat will be there) or ring up. Hurry up though, you’ve only got just over a week.

How much do we think they will go up by?

So who wants the gossip…? 

We all do!

I'd be tempted to let Brown go on loan again. See if we can offload Washington and sign up Gayle and Collins for another season.

Get a championship level CF and utilise the likes of NML and CBT too. Then we have plenty of flexibility for a 352, 343 or a 4231.

Shrewsbury did us a massive favour tonight!
