Ramarena Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 When you look through the list of players in our squad there is a large number that have had a taste of the these high pressure playoff games whether as winners or losers. We may have old legs, but hopefully our squad contains a lot of wise heads who have the know how to get the results we need. Obviously there's the players from our recent playoff defeats but the more recent arrivals have a wealth of experience too. Play-off winning experience Palmer Johnson Jerome Davies Hudds Play-offs experience Keogh Thorne Fozzy Weimann Wisdom Olsson Carson Baird Nugent I quite like the playoff winning spine of the team with Davies, Hudds and hopefully a fit and in form Jerome!

Curtains Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 Could be a very good advantage for Derby that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G STAR RAM Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 Is it just me that thinks this sort of think is a load of old tosh?! I could list at least 11 players who have experienced losing against Fulham at Pride Park this season. Counts for very little in my opinion.

Agreed ,can't be arsed to check but some of the winners could have been in other losing playoffs .Rowetts been in two playoffs and lost both does that count?

Do you not think have played in high pressure games in the past gives you an edge over the players that haven't? (Provided those players may be more likely to suffer with nerves.) I don't think it's a huge advantage, but I do think it may give a small edge, and that could be enough sometimes. That's why I think we lost at Wembley vs QPR, experience vs naivety.
