Every.

Freaking.

Time.

[Thierry Ennui]

I am so utterly sick of this club.

The annual collapse continues....?

So what’s the common thread then? This is what I meant earlier by the fans actually holding is back. It’s the weight of expectation from the fans that seems to keep bringing them down. 

The closest we’ve come recently was Mac 1, when we really didn’t expect anything. Shame what happened in the final, but until then, the fans were just enjoying the ride. Ever since then, we expect to be there or there abouts, and put pressure on the team. We’d almost be better off disappearing into mid table for a few seasons, then trying again. 

We need to get realistic, remember that we would have been shocked to even reach the play offs this season, and enjoy the ride. Then maybe the players will start enjoying the ride too. 

Not a chance.

Some people just want to slag the players off. It's big and clever.

Defending reminiscent of the last few seasons. Didn’t think this squad was like that...

Not sure I can even blame Rowett for this.

Every manager we have it's the same old story.

[Seaside Sam]

did we lose 5-0 or something?

What’s doubly worrying is that going into the play- offs (assuming we even make those) with our current form means we might as well save the time and effort and stay at home....

It's the same old fans.

Derby just need to ensure playoffs now. We can still get promoted, but it'll have to be the hard way. 

[Harrowram]

Not good enough. Fulham will slaughter us next week. Rowett must sort out the full-backs quickly.

[jimbo jones]

On the plus side, at least I dont need to get stressed about the automatic promotion race.

From some of your posts, you might as well get the razor blades! Playoffs are 3 months away! Form is temporary, we'll hit a hot spell of form between now and then. 

[Abu Dhabi Ram]

I'm sorry, but after witnessing that, we don't stand a chance in the play offs. Utterly abysmal. 

I also don't get people who make excuses for these players, they are very experienced and should be more than capable of handling the pressure.

Not the playoffs please. Can't we just finish 7th please?
