Play-off Final: Derby County v Queens Park Rangers

Seriously... no idea. Being a Rs and Norn Iron fan, I am pretty used to it. I would love to win at Wembley. 

 

I just cant call it. If we play like we did against Wigan, we will win it. We do have Austi and Simpson back in the side, whom we could not call on in Feb.

 

However, provided your younger players dont freeze, and Mac sets them up to attack ( if he doesnt, I think you team will get worn down by us), I think we are very vulnerable to at the back and will be forced to sit deep (esp if he picks Dunne and Hill). Charlie will be isolated and it could be an uncomfortable afternoon

 

Why dont you think you can beat us? We have hardly set the championship alight this year!

 

So many variables, like I said somewhere else if you bring your A game and if our youngsters freeze it will not be pretty.  However if we play like we did againest Brighton I can see us over run you, score however you will rally and equalise.  After that its all about who has the balls, a slice of luck, a tatical sub a coffee cup, sudden thunderstorm... et al.

 

I disagree with the play-offs however I have a feeling this will be one of the best, if not the best.

 

Hope you stay around on here regardless of the outcome.

Yeah, not sure what the singing areas are all about tomorrow hopefully all the stadium will singing well at least until Derby go 3-0 up (sorry)

 

You need to get the areas right in a new stadium, its only in the last few months Derby have experimented with moving the away fans from behind the goal to a corner, and it has made a massive difference to the atmosphere. Having a bank of home fans behind both goals really got the stadium rocking against Brighton

Rams Fans, forgive me for intruding on your discussion but I felt obliged to give you my best wishes for tomorrow.

 

I am a St.Johnstone, 50 years + and last week as you will probably know we won our first major trophy in our 130 year history.

I am old enough to remember the Baseball ground and some of your great teams of the past.

 

Rams, keep the faith I have a good feeling about tomorrow for you. As nervous as you all are this will end well.

 

Good Luck

Our stadium, as you know is small atm. I certainly makes a big difference when we have home behind both goals from our point of view, but can kill the atmosphere a bit (which has been a bit like the football this year... mediocre)

Cheers SaintJ to win you first trophy in a 130 that must have been amazing , thats kind of why i'm not really that bothered about tomorrow (yeah ok i am) But tomorrow we don't win a trophy as such, Stuff the premier league who needs it, all be it the money will come in handy. If Derby where in FA cup final i think i really would be bricking it. Hope St Johnstone have some good european nights next year.

Will certainly come back on here to congratulate you and maybe digest some of the game, which like you, I think will be one of the best.

You talk my language. Oh for the old English first division (Top League), where anyone of 12 maybe more had genuine chances of winning the league. 

 

You are great fans, genuine fans and love your football. I will be watching and pulling for you tomorrow.

You've become a bit of a regular , GMR , long may it continue.. :)

That must be on this one thread... havent felt I know enough (or care, if I am honest) to post on many others.

 

It is enjoyable garnering the views of others, particularly for a big match like this. Bit of fresh air and my lungs feel better for it.

 

If there was one thing I could have changed this season, it would have been to make sure Mac didnt leave. Much that I am not that keen on Harry, I find it hard to think who we might have instead... not sure our owners know either and come Sat 5 pm they may be looking. Dont imagine he has the stomach for another promotion race or relegation battle

Yeah know what you’re properly right, :w00t:

 

 I’ve just sold my ticket on stub hub for a fiver, I’ve cancelled my hotel room for Saturday night along the escort agency booking also not using any petrol to get down to London, overall I’ve save myself a fortune, what a fool I could have been if I actually went to the match
