let us be honest it will live long in the memories of those down the a52, they will get bragging rights before a ball is even kicked. avoid at all costs for me as @Gee SCREAMER !! says it will be the most embarrasing fixture in our history and thats only if we play them nothing to do with what happens on the pitch. its not even worth thinking about if we actually lost to them as they will be well up for it

A 25% chance of playing the most embarrassing fixture in the clubs history. Buzzing.
If we draw Forest and have any thoughts of playing anyone with more than 3 first team appearances and over the age of 22 that will be horrific.
 

One thing I think we can agree on is that Warne is the most divisive manager we have had for some time !
Although I suppose in the MM era we never got the chance to be divisive as they were sacked so quickly.

Nobody can defend PW after tonight's shambles, the fella should be ashamed!

Thats the thing with Warne you think you have turned a corner and then he churns out this absolute rubbish

Not another blooming lockdown?

i have no problem with DC or his plans. but we are not in a position to laugh at forests owner for having ambition

why is it funny that the owner thinks they should be an elite club in the country? 
 
i find that extremely unfunny really especially when hes willing to pump money into the club
 
meanwhile ours has grand plans to take us to the second division in 5 years 
 
there is no chance they are going down this year the teams at the bottom are crap, last year was the year they needed to go
 

If you put lipstick on a pig it's still s pig.Shocking result however you dress it up.

You might be willing to give him the benefit of the doubt if he was building something to get behind
 
hes filled the squad with journeyman hoofball merchants who will leave in the next or so for nothing anyway
 
i can’t believe he hasn’t gone yet, very worrying

let’s be honest he doesn’t deserve vitrol
 
but it calms down when he makes the most inevitable decision he will have to make in his business career. For me it’s slightly worrying he doesn’t seem to be budging on the warne mistake
 
he won’t be able to just run the club badly because he saved us without criticism 

Why is this p**** wearing another sports team hat when giving an interview? I know its baseball but everything he does from now on annoys me and this is just another thing to add to the list.

He is a hero and always will be but your post implies he could make mistake after mistake in his decision making without any criticism, apologies if I’ve got the wrong end of the stick 😊

Whoever advised Clowes to appoint Warne over Rosenoir should be locked up for football crimes!! If its just Clowes's decision then he should pay up for his horrendous error. Clowes will always be a hero for saving the club but the decision to not appoint Rosenoir will go down in history as one of the worst at Derby. Warne has sucked the life out of Derby fans. Hes in a special club of managers now along with Jewell,Brown and Docherty!!

I am so tired of this BAG OF ABSOLUTE s*** we are being served up with
 
Warne simple has to go, he is incapable of manging derby. it's not even about the results, we have spent 90% of games this season being absolute crap and are fully deserving to be a mid table league one team. we havent even been unlucky.

I remember people saying they wouldn’t mind us going down because we get to go to some new grounds and win some more games that was pure nonsense at the time & even more nonsense with hindsight 
 
this league is a complete hellhole

Unfortunately we have a League 1 manager, even if he's gained promotion from it - relegation followed immediately. 
There are plenty of managers in the leagues above and in other countries leagues who have never succeeded at League 1 level, but I'll settle for someone who has better ideas and is more able to realise ambitions! #COYR

Congrats to PW and the team for saving his job on Tuesday...this time.
However, it's a measure of just how far we have fallen that we celebrate beating Exeter as if it were winning the FA Cup, and would apparently regard a point away at Stevenage (STEVENAGE!!!???!!!) as a good result.
I know that football, like most things, is a kind of pyramid, that the lower leagues are necessary for discovering and developing home grown talent etc, and I'm not averse to a bit of National League action myself, or lower, on a good day it has it's own magic for sure, especially in the FA Cup.  We accept local non league footie for what it is, and enjoy it for what it is.
However, when it comes to DCFC I'm of the generation whose expectations were raised (spoiled perhaps) at an impressionable age by the success of the 1970s, enjoyed the 1990s hugely, and now find it hard to adjust to current realities.  The many false dawns of recent times (the 2007-8 debacle, getting so close recently under Lampard) can induce a kind of existential ennui that's difficult to shake.  
Please PW, however you do it, get us out of this awful league, with its c**p grounds, cynical fouls, time wasting, hoofball, physicality at the expense of skill - and FAR too many games, leading players to burn out or get injured - players who need more time in training, skills development & physical maintenance than those in the PL, not less.  A PL team without cup runs or Europe plays 40 games a season, our bunch will end up playing maybe 60 if we have a couple of cup runs and end up competing in the playoffs.  In which case, even if we do go up we'll arrive in the Championship knackered before we even start.
We might deserve to be here morally, but in footballing terms we should not be here.  PW does seem to know how to compete at this level on its own terms (see above), but once back in the Championship we will need someone who has worked and succeeded at a higher level than this.
But who?

It’s a shame to see. I don’t think he deserved to take the brunt of what was probably more aimed at the manager. Fair play to him for fronting up.
He actually put in a decent shift when he came on.
 

Snap your hand off for Notts County’s gaffer. 

Isn't that the issue though summed up very succinctly - damned if you do damned if you don't 
Put a weakened squad out get beat then there's uproar on here.
Put out a decent starting 11 win the game but it doesn't matter as they're a division below us and had a big change of personnel for tonight's game.

lets be honest whatever way they paint this its a ridiclous decision.
 
not only is the timing stupid, its not like they are even replacing him with a top manager where you can say okay i can see what they are planning.
 
birmingham found another idiotic ownership, you cant treat fans like idiots like they do in the states

Better to be both 😄
Looking at a couple xG tables, they place us in 13th. So yea, currently overperforming...
