Taribo Posted May 11, 2019 Share Posted May 11, 2019 Christ lads, we weren’t dreadful today, it’s halftime and we’re one nill down, plenty left to play for and to be fair Leeds didn’t look that good at the back. keep the faith! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anon Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 No. Overall, I am happy with our season, but I'd love to know what evidence you've seen across three fixtures of being dicked on by Leeds that makes you think things might be different on Wednesday.

MackworthRamIsGod Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 Leeds weren't that good, Derby weren't that bad, 1-0 down isn't that disastrous, but... Why did he start Nugent in such a key game? If we did a poll before the game that said who you start Nugent yes or no, I can't imagine many fans would say yes. It's as if Lampard is trying to make a point to someone. If Lampard can swallow his pride and pick a Marriott on Wednesday we may have a better chance, if Nugent is in the starting line up again it is curtains.

I agree that Nugent is not our best option but we could have had Messi upfront today and he wouldn’t have got a kick. Lawrence and Wilson were static once again and never supported either the front man or our midfield. Johnson had a poor game and Mount didn’t.get into it for an hour. Bogle got forward only once we were behind and Malone had one of his timid giraffe days. We didn’t lose because of Nugent. We lost because we didn’t work hard enough either to find space or to close them down.. They were far stronger in possession of the ball and their control was better. I agree Marriott should start but unless the whole team improves it won’t make a jot of difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irobinson Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 God my head hurts this morning - and for some reason I keep singing - “we all hate Leeds, we all hate Leeds” players didnt really turn up and play that well but me mates and the Rams fans did.....

I’m happy enough - we aren’t good enough, Leeds will finish the job on Wednesday but then Villa will break their hearts at Wembley and I will laugh at all those dirty Yorkshire scummers as the Sky cameras zoom in on them slumped in their seats in tears.

But if you'd be open to a wider pool of data than just those 3 fixtures then you might find some evidence to show that this Derby team are capable of pulling off some exceptional performances at unexpected times.

Ewe Ram Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 It win win really. If we win that’s good. If they win we can watch them cry at Wembley when the get beat. If that doesn’t happen we can watch them getting thumped and arguing amongst themselves next season when they can’t beat Burnley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have started with Marriott but if you think playing him instead of Nugent yesterday would have made a difference then you're wrong. We misfired because of the lack of cohesion between Wilson, Mount, Lawrence, Johnson and to a lesser extent Holmes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Dastard Lee Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 OK, they've beaten us 3 times this season but if we beat them on Wednesday those 3 victories count for nothing. Hull did that to us 3 years ago, it's our turn now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They didn’t look good at the back and yet we never troubled them,,I applaud your optimism but if we can’t trouble a weak defence then the answer is right before your eyes. if no Waghorn then we have to use Marriott and find another way to beat these, Nugent is not the answer but in all fairness he isn’t the same type of player as Waghorn. I think we have the tools to win the game but Frank has to use them first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BodminRam Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 I love your faith, but if that starting 11 start on Wednesday, with the same negativity we will be seeing them again next season, once the villans have got promoted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed Nugent not much of a threat, but a lot of other players need to massively up their game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
