Whenever I try I have just got a error message, no wonder the attendance levels are so low. Most people would just give up.

I don't understand given the start of the season that we have had and the circumstances we are under why anyone would consider another manager.

We can’t sign anyone anyway so it’s irrelevant to us 

I'm hoping that will change when we finally submit our accounts.

Great support. Surely we will be able to break the 20,000 mark for the Forest game?

He's a class above. A great signing for us and a good use of Rooney using his connections. 

Gutted that he's going back go to Forest as I think he would of been a great addition. Hopefully he won't play against us on Saturday.

Why are we even talking about a new manager? Get behind the team and the boys we all need be united to get through this season 

Great addition to the sqaud. Bringing experience, quality and composure. 

Thankfully we have a options at centre back now so Curtis and Jags won't have to play every game neither.

"Derby County are hoping they can bring two or three players in this week after the club made an application to the EFL following Colin Kazim-Richards' injury, DerbyshireLive understands..."

If we can bring in three players, who would we want our third player to be?

I think only just in the starting line up. The bench isn’t anywhere strong enough at present to make any necessary changes.

I don’t think Rooney going will solve our issues as the squad is still the same, and I feel uncomfortable judging him until he can get more players in.

100% agree. I don't think any manager would have a chance with this waifer thin squad.

I hope Stretton gets some decent game time and gets a chance to showcase his talent however we can't rely on having him as our fit number 9 for the next few months. We need to sort something out, hopefully a deal with the EFL to free up another slot or something.

It sounds like Wayne would like to loan Mengi, Garner and Delap, along with sign Jagielka and Baldock. That would give us depth at both CB and ST.

While it seems incredibly unlikely, Wayne must have some assurances from Man Utd and the trialists that at least some of that could happen. As we know though, it all comes down to Mel sorting out the embargo with the EFL and getting it lifted.

Based on that, it’s likely we miss out on most or all of those.

I would definitely be happy if we could bring in Mengi, Garner and Delap. 

I would like to sign Jagielka but I think Mengi is needed more than him due to his pace. Otherwise if you just had any two of Davies, Stearman and Jagielka you don't don't have much pace there and can be left vulnerable.

I probably wouldn't bother with Baldock if we could get Delap, however I do think as we need another CF so he would be better than no one to provide cover and give CKR the occasional rest.

We desperately need another CF now as CZR can't play 46 + games a season. If we can't get Delap on loan, who do we go for though?

We could also do with another CB, I'd like to think we could get Mengi again for his pace.

The question I want answering is when are we giving him a new deal? He needs a contract with the club before he can even be considered to be captain.

He's just lead Derby to beating Real Betis. Let's get behind him and the lads they don't need anything else against them.

I would take him and Morrison on a years contract if we could. If we are only able to offer four players a deal then we obviously have other priorities to address.

I'm not sure there are many 15/20 goal a season strikers around on a free transfer. Failing that I would take either Gregory or Baldock in the short term as CZR's back up under the circumstances or maybe we could get a young CF on loan ?

About 12 months after the injury - that was the first time round. So end of 2021 ish. 

I was thinking he could be back a bit sooner than we originally thought, but maybe I am being overly optimistic.

A fully fit Bielik is on a another level, do we have any indications when he might be fit and back in action for us?
