Which brings me to my all time favourite game show: Les Dennis or Steve McCLaren.....
 
 

I suppose someone must? 

Just bizarre….and quite sad really. Thought on the whole he was doing a good job.

Assuming that it isn't Liam's idea not to continue, or that he isn't off to pastures new anyway, this all seems a bit sad really.  I don't think he's done anything particularly wrong (I know some people seem to expect us to win every game 5-0 and they're going to continue to be disappointed whoever comes in and fails to achieve that), he's stuck with us when he might not have needed to and he's obviously a bright chap. 
Again, it might all come out that Liam is ok with it and all that, but as with some decisions under Mel, this all seems a bit premature.  I was looking forward to a bit of stability and seeing if he could build a squad over a period of time.
Oh well, while not particularly excited about this Warne bloke I'll give him the same chance I give everybody. I just hope he isn't another Rowett as watching that nearly made me give up my season ticket (in fact, it nearly made me give up on football altogether).

Got whiffs of the Nigel Pearson appointment.

Get Liam out for crying out loud,  nice man but absolutely shocking manager , a decent league 1 manager would have these firing 90% of our team are established in the league above ffs, had enough of watching us it's getting my down every week 

LR it’s time to go

Please go LR. We need some fresh ideas after the many years of you and Rooney. This is STALE

Totally agree. Great post. I noticed we weren't always looking for the instant pass, we were dribbling with the ball slightly more, allowing us another dimension. Best football I've seen us play in a long time. 
Yes, passes went astray, but that goes with making forward passes. I don't mind us trying. 
Been surprised with the negative reaction. I was really pleased with the match, and it leaves me really looking forward to the next league game. That's not a feeling I've had in a long time, let me tell you.

Yay we get 1 point after dominating against 10 men 

we will win 2-1 yet... Keep the faith ?

I’ll say it again we need fresh ideas from the management Rosenior seems a decent bloke but he’s no manager 

Really enjoying watching this football.

This just popped up on my youtube recommended list, worth a watch ?
 
 

My fears for LR's reign are nigh on non-existent, as I don't want him to leave at this stage (due to my desire to see some stability within the club), I don't believe he deserves to be sacked at this stage (due to results thus far), I don't believe he's ready to resign at this stage (due to a total and uninformed guess!), and I don't believe Mr Clowes is about to pull the trigger, at this stage (again... total guesswork)
My opinion is that results are far more important than performances, certainly for this season... the season immediately after we were dragged from certain death.
I neither demand, nor expect us to put any team to the sword. 
I am however, grateful that we have a club to support, and will remain delighted (and relieved!) if we manage to compete at a fair to middling ratio, or better... for this season, at least.  In my mind, that means a comfortable mid-table slot or better, with no fears of relegation.  We're currently "better", so that'll do for me, despite it being very early days (in the season).
Putting teams to the sword and/or realistic visions of play-offs/promotion would be a massive bonus this season.
 
Despite the lyrics, we are no longer "massive".  We have no right to be "Up there where we belong".  We are a L1 club, who have just had the life-support machine switched off, and are now learning to breathe for ourselves again, and walk on our own two feet again.  It may well be a long crawl to recovery... but that is so much preferential to the alternative!
The Rams Live on.  Long live The Rams.

What an absolute pile of poo

The dreaded vote of confidence…

Derby losing a game we really should have won. New owners, new team, new manager, same result.
It really is in our DNA.
