Leeds have been competing for a top two place all season.

We haven't been anywhere near as good as them. 

Just checking if the same rules apply, thought not!

For what it’s worth I think if we finish top 6 we will be taken seriously regardless of today’s result.

B******d

[SaintRam]

Waghorn booked for dissent.

Ref's being bank is incredibly frustrating but if one of these lads gets themselves sent off I'll be annoyed. 

[Millenniumram]

This ref has to be having a late April fool

But it's not a good point because Leeds don't have any impact on whether we will be taken seriously or not.

Leeds get beaten twice by them but smash almost everyone else. So are therefore taken seriously.

We have been largely poor since the turn of the year and only really turned up against the weak sides. 

If we cant beat Birmingham then I don't know what hope you'd hold out for us against the likes of Villa, West Brom or any of Leeds or Sheffield United.

Great block from cole

[SaintRam]

Great defending from Cole to stop Adam's through on goal.

I didn't see how he ended up through on goal v Cole but I assume it was a Derby mistake further up the field.

 

Brum's resultant corner is cleared (comfortably) off the line. 

[Ramarena]

Another free header at a corner

[Richard246]

We can't Defend anyone thinks we can is a Fool!!! 

[Millenniumram]

You know derby I’ve got an idea.. jutkiewicz has caused us problems on every corner so far... so how about we mark him?

Because the Championship has never worked like that has it. If you don’t beat Bolton away doesn’t mean you can’t beat Norwich away.

We actually defend in open play pretty well.

Indeed it’s set pieces and some crosses we really struggle with

[BrentW]

Just put a fiver on Derby to win. I think they'll do it.

Yeah. They haven't had a shot on target from open play. They've only had one shot from open play that wasn't blocked. That's caused by competent defending.

Poor passing has put our defenders on the backfoot a lot, but they've risen to the challenge well every time. 

 

But they're all a complete shambles from FKs and Corners, to a man. 

[Ramarena]

Juke unmarked again

[SaintRam]

Wilson gives the ball away and Brum attack. Defended well by Keogh.

They eventually work a cross from open play, well cleared by Tomori after a header back across by Juke.

 

Jutkiewicz booked for a push on Wilson

[Day]

3 more Derby corners and the win, milky bars will be on me tonight!
