I'm about 20 years older than him and I would have stoped that second ball, cross coming in to the box today for their goal especially after just being suspended, and showed a hell of a lot more desire, and I've been running and walking behind a bin lorry all week covering at least 60 miles, loading waste bins during a pandemic for very little reward.

The pitch is a metaphor for us as a club - looked pretty good a few seasons back but now looks tired and not fit for purpose. I still think we will will stay up. Who the hell said dry January was a good idea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'd have probably got himself a foul that way but he dithered and the rest as you say, is history. Another Saturday night ruined. I'm off for a kebab and then I'm gonna get bladdered. ?? I think the problem for Roos was the Rotherham player had the momentum as he was running in, whereas Roos had a standing start. Hard to steam roller someone who has the momentum. Enjoy the beer.....we need something to lighten the mood at the moment! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimbo Ram Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 All very disappointing but not the end of the world. We can't sign players until we have paid the players can we? Think we need 2 or 3 in during the window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BramcoteRam84 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Today looked like a team that’s had 2 weeks off with Covid outbreak. Don’t think off field matters can be blamed. Poor performances from many players. Too many touches back 4 setting the tone for the rest of the team, not showing same belief on the ball. For all doom mongers waiting for this opportunity to pounce - this level of performance has not been the norm for the 9 games preceding this. A return to those performances which this team is capable of will see us get out of this. It can change very quickly as we’ve proven already. Performances like today will see us relegated no question. It was nowhere near good enough. The only positive is we have another game on Tuesday to put it right. With injuries to Lawrence, Holmes and Marriott leaving we’re light on options to change games when it isn’t working. That is where the takeover clarity (either way) needs sorting.

Derbyram1983 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Worst thing is we can’t score. Apart from birmingham which was a one off. We can’t even score many against the so called weaker teams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our fight back starts next season with a young manager and our recruitment of cheap but talented and unknown lower league and Scottish players who will fight for their shirts every week. It's going to be a very,very different Derby county and we are going to have to lose our championship attitude to the game and the opposition if we are going to get any enjoyment out of the next few years. Sadly, I think you're right. We will have to adjust our expectations, accept we're likely to a fish in a different pond but not have any illusions that we'll be a particularly big fish. Depressing thought but, we just need to accept it for what it is and enjoy any good times in a lower league that may come around. I don't ever remember being this down after a game so, I'm trying to talk myself into a better state of mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoyMac5 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 13 minutes ago, RadioactiveWaste said: Sorry, I'm not laughing at you, just laughing because it's so typical that Roos comes in and make a mistake costing us the game. Although there's others to blame as well. Sibley got an assist though, which is nice. I'm not a Roos fan but he did well overall today. It can't have helped in the goal to have Wisdom push one of their players into him! We need a centre-half, a striker at least. CH first please, Wisdom is awful.

It can be hard (as we're seeing) to blood so many youngsters at Championship level. Not so very different from what I suggested and in reality it will probably be a combination of the two. To be honest I'm pretty accepting of it it's likelihood now as it is actually more attractive than what we are currently going through at the moment. It's like witnessing a horrible divorce taking place,it's nasty and heartwrending and everyone will be better off when it's done,even if we end up in a smaller house.....

Finch Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 4 minutes ago, Norman said: The pitch just about sums this football club up. At a time when the results of your team can give you a glimmer of hope in an otherwise dismal, gloomy, largely unenjoyable, period of our lives - we get this served to us. Can't pass, can't tackle, can't stop conceding stupid fouls, can't control a ball, can't score, can't prepare a pitch, can't pay our players, can't get proof of funds, can't show any sort of quality. It's an absolute shambles. There’s only person you can lay this on regrettably. Blundered into a cul de sac. Way out vanishing by the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need stronger fitter players with fire in their bellies and enough skill to consistently get the basics right. Not luxury players which I think we have too many of at the moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s no doubt about it anymore, we’ve proven there isn’t 3 teams worse than us in this League. Anyone who thinks we’re going to survive needs their head examining. Scary thing is that most of our worst matches this season have been against the teams that play League 1 style - honestly wouldn't fancy our chances down there...

SKRam Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Right I’ve sussed out what’s gone on.... Rooney texts his mate Ronaldo and says ‘I’m packing this playing malarkey in mate’. ‘Done enough now. What would you dare me to do after playing?’ And Ronaldo texts back saying ‘I dare you to take managers job at Derby County’. Thinking ‘not even Wazza would be that daft’ ..... well up yours Ronnie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here. We’re on such a bad trajectory at the moment, that I could foresee back to back relegations. That’s if the club is still in existence, of course.
