Rampage Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 Just now, top 6 finish said: I wanted to confirm what I thought went wrong for us. I assume that you did. We are the most fragile team in the top 6. By fragile I mean likely to put in a very poor performance without warning. Did we make the mistake of not dropping players who were playing poorly. Butterfield seemed to be substituted far too often to me. Ince and a lot of poor games. Did we make the mistake of playing players who were not doing enough to be in the team whilst others were not given a fair chance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
top 6 finish Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 I want to get tomorrow night over,before any more comment,seems fair,got to give the men chance and all that.

Kernow Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 Stick this up in the dressing room and all. I realise it's highly likely this will be the case, but as a professional footballer himself I'm sure he knows it ain't over until it's over...

If they can't do that....it'll be the final curtain on this group of players as far as I'm concerned. Indeed. If rotherham can pull back 3 on us in 10 minutes we can do the same in 90.

Anag Ram Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 I think the lesson to be learned Is that no matter how flashy your skills are, it's the team that works the hardest and as a unit that will come out on top. The new manager needs to be someone who can instil that, and much as I despise him, Pearson might be that man. i hope we show some ba!!s tonight. My fear is that a few individuals will do their own thing to put themselves in the shop window now that it's all too late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jono Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 Right ! It's match day .. Sulks and moans back in the cupboard with the stale cornflakes. lets give it our best shot, will them on and whatever the result let's get our heads up and show some pride Logic says usual set up with an 11 made up of the 13/14 regulars Heart says .. 4411 with Camara on one wing, Ince behind Bent with Hughes and Butterfield in the middle. Weiman to take either Ince or Camaras role if that isn't working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadioactiveWaste Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 Head says we try hard and give it a go for half an hour before fading and go go through comfortable winners. Heart says.... It only takes a second to score a goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ahjames08 Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 Well won some money on the Brighton game, so my surplus has gone on Derby to qualify @ 25/1. We scored 2 goals in the first half an hour at their place, and I would love us to wipe the smug smiles of their players faces, and Fat ugly Bruce who said he could have gone in Goal.... Let's hope DW has that on the wall in the dressing room wall... Love to someone like Camara run at their defence.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's for once be the in predictable and Dawson and Davies running around like headless chickens rather than snubbing out the passes to Martin... COYR.. Plus quite a few playing for their contracts..

Lander Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 I'm strangely excited and optimistic. Not entirely sure how this football club manages to do this to my brain but it does, we'll be there supporting the lads and hopefully they will be able to do us proud.

Half fan Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 Grant (shot stopper) Cyrus (what a dribbler) Keogh (oh) Bucko (heart, and goals at corners) Warnock! (heads and defends) Russell Butters Will French speeder (surprise) Benty (allegedly one of England;s top goal scorers) Martin If it's not this team, I'm not even bothering to subscribe to Sky tonight!

Rampage Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 I would rather that we scored a couple of goals and lost the game tonight than we just try to keep the score down and lose one nil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerbyPride Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 I'm actually quietly optimistic too. It may be misguided optimism but only time will tell. If we get an early goal then the whole tie changes. That'd put them in an awkward position. Should they defend or attack? Grab another one and they'll be very nervy and we'll be full of confidence. Get the third and their heads go. The crowd will be on their backs and the momentum would then get us the winner. Big big ask but stranger things have happened. Although knowing us we'll get to 4-0, concede in the 95th minute and then lose on penalties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcnram Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 I am OK with us not going up, not a problem for me. Tonight I want to see some pride in our performance. I don't want the current head coach instructing stupid tactics like by-passing our most creative players and launching crazy balls straight to their defenders. I want to see passes to Martin that are anywhere between his knees and the 'little piggy that went to market; He will revel in that service. I want to see Bryson coming from midfield and beyond Martin, I want to see Keogh have an idea in his head what he is going to do with the ball when he goes on one of his runs. I don't want Shackell to have the ball, he makes me nervous. Or, the short version is play the football on the grass - entertain me, have a shot.

Premier ram Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 Big ask tonight , but Hull think they are already there and some of the comments flying around , Bruce and Holloway ,might just fire up our lads to pull this out of the fire , whatever eleven Wass puts out tonight needs to be giving 110 percent from kick off , so come on boys you have got this performance in you to turn this around , if you want to be a premier league player next season , tonight is when youve got to show it COME ON DERBY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ITSD Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 I had a dream last night where we were 2-0 up and someone (I think it was Paul Peschisoledo, but that's dreams) hit the post from about a yard out after the keeper spilled it.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadioactiveWaste Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 Of course, in an odd way, that third goal has helped. The odds were still against us at 2 but now hull think it's all over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I defy anyone to find a quote from Steve Bruce that gives any indication he thinks the job is done! The most he has said is that if we play like we did at the iPro, we've got an excellent chance. Please don't group Brucie in with that moron Holloway!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
