v Manchester United (a) Match tHread

[Comrade 86]

After the refs totally bottle it with a ridiculous amount of Fergie time, we now have squeaky bum time. Scotty Carson to be the hero?

That last goal was hugely avoidable had someone just got rid of the ball instead of fannying around.

Far to casual around our area. Could name 3/4 of our players who had a chance to clear it. Tried to play it out and lost the ball.

[Cisse]

Make them run. They have only ten men.

If we were 2-1 down, I very much doubt there would have been 6 minutes of stoppage time. Big team bias evident again zzzzz. 

You are right, its when you question the integrity of the officials.

That equaliser hasn't changed the way I'll view this game regardless of result. Thought we were fantastic, two lazy moments at the back cost us but we deserved more than just the draw. We've done ourselves a real credit no matter what, whether we win or lose the shootout I'm going to take the same amount of confidence going forward for the rest of the season.

To win it would be amazing, but before a penalty is taken, I'm so pleased that this feel good factor has returned to the club.

How was it 6 minutes in the first place?!

6 subs, a sending off and 2 goals. Not far off being right tbh. I was expecting more at OT!

[DJFern94]

Also, in a shootout. Out of Carson and Grant, I know who I would rather have in net.

[1967Ram]

Really, really proud of the team tonight whatever the outcome. There was some great football played in that match and IMO we played most of it. COYR

Justice to be served in a penalty shootout.

Who cares if they're all internationals - fate will see in our favour. 

How long you been following Derby?! ?

[Brammie Steve]

Told ya it'd be a draw! ?

Come on Scott you're better than Grant!

Ah so you're to blame ?

I'm staying out this time... not coming back until I see a torrent of celebrations on here at about quarter past ten.

[roboto]

Proud of how the lads have played tonight regardless of what happens in the shootout.

Can just about imagine how the ref found 6 minutes (goalie change was slow after the red and a bit of VAR plus usual add ons for yellows and subs), but it is a sucker blow to go deservedly ahead and then concede in the 5th minute of added time.

[wixman1884]

Best performance in 5 years. Regardless of the result. Absolutely buzzing over here.

Wisdom off the pace since coming on,

[North East Ram]

Blast it!!

[North East Ram]

Come on Granty. Do us a favour!

[Lambface]

Had a feeling about tonight hence signing up to a free bet site. That equaliser cost me 240 quid! 

[CamsChorizo]

Come on Carson!!!

[GenBr]

Hopefully this doesnt get down to the defenders...

[CamsChorizo]

Get one Scotty Boy!
