Anyone going for a paddle in the river at The Aspley pub before or after the game?

I noticed the Sale is on at the DCFC Megastore kids wellies only £5, proper bargain, just ordered 2 pairs, one pair for my little feet and one pair for my little hands!

Snorkels and flippers at the ready kids!

Hoping my megabus is like the bus that goes under water in "Sarah and Duck"! Gonna be a great day!

4 Hours Non Stop of Sarah & Duck, marvellous.

Five minute walk from my house, been counting down the days for this one. First game for me since the Leeds debacle, if it's anything similar to that I'll take full responsibility. 

As mentioned above, Sportsman's usually popular for away fans + is a real ale pub. Turn left when you get out the train station, under a bridge and you're there. There's the Aspley on the way to the ground, nice little place, decent enough food too. Nothing much around the John Smiths so I'd stick in the centre for somewhere to drink. Couple of Spoons, Warehouse bar, Slug & Lettuce in the centre and an unnatural load of Greggs scattered every few yards.

Straight forward 3-1 for me.

Rather than dissing opponents and making assertions about what the result "ought" to be, i want us to concentrate on improving our own performance shortcomings.

Will PC realise that Johnson/Butterfield/Thorne as a midfield 3 is not optimal (note i won't say "doesn't work" - it just does not in my view give us the best chance of a positive outcome)

Will Jeff be back in?

Is Chrissy sufficiently to deliver a performance like last weekend not midweek.

Will Tom be retained despite indifferent form?

Still tinkering at left back?

COYR - deliver us a positive performance and let the result be as it may.

I have a feeling that Baird will play instead of Christie and Forsyth for Warnock.

Clement seems to like to rotate the full backs.

For me, the only way this system works is with Christie and Forsyth getting forward and allowing Ince and Russell to tuck in closer to Martin.

I htought after Weds we needed a bit more going forward not a bit less.

be a challenge for PC to drop Cyrus without putting back his confidence.

Dawkins, if fit, would be a good swap for either Russell or Ince, I think. Better at keeping possession and would also open up the way to use the benched player as an impact sub.

I'll despair if he drops Christie for Baird.

Get ready for some light despair.

Hendrick ruled out, still ill. Butterfield damaged his back in an early fall on Wednesday, he looked out cold to me at first. But got up eventually and played on. He trained today, so hopefully he's okay for tomorrow with Jeff still under the weather, otherwise I suppose you could go with Hanson in there? 

 

Looking forward to the game, nice stadium there and a great away following. Should be a high scoring affair again, with us hopefully doing all of the scoring. I fancy Butters to get off the mark. Old club and all that jazz. Written in the stars. ;)

Not without changing the shape. Jamie Hanson can't do anything that Hendrick or Butterfield can. He would have to sit alongside Thorne.

Rams should be winning this won. No disrespect to Huddersfield Town and the rest of the Championship teams but this year has to be the weakest ever collection of teams I can remember. If the Rams can't get promoted from this years mediocre Championship they never will! 

How on earth do you judge the standard of an entire league? What criteria are you applying in order to come to the conclusion you have done?

And to say 'no disrespect' while issuing such a damning conclusion is just that - disrespectful.

Eddie I have seen a few teams play on Sky who have looked pretty bad but you are right in that I have not seen all the teams in action. I can see what I said was a touch arrogant. My heart wants Derby County to be brilliant and the other teams rubbish I guess! Hoping for a good result tomorrow though I can see that Huddersfield have only lost once at home to QPR and got a draw against Brighton.
