Big blow. Bielik out, new system not integrated. Caught on the hop late on by some good fighters. 
 

need to lick wounds, think again, work out a plan. These things happen. I know for sure that Rooney and these players will be hurting like we are. .. Hold your water. Melt downs help no one.

We really have trouble against sides like this and it’s been our Achilles heel for several years.

Make no bones about it Rotherham are garbage. They are constantly either getting relegated or just avoiding it. Most teams do them over but we don’t.

Rooney clearly learned nothing from the previous meeting a couple of weeks back so a lot of tonight is on him. He needs to find a way of beating this leagues dross. It’s been something we have consistently failed to do.

We do not have eleven players who could withstand that type of physical onslaught. Shorty in Rotherham side is 6 feet tall.

Fine margins. If the Gregory header goes in we would probably got a point. Heavy pitch against a physical route 1 team. Thought the tempo was too slow but for 75 minutes we coped. Switched off at the set piece and were punished. We didn’t create enough but nor did they for the first 75 minutes. We missed Bielik and Shinnie had his worst game in a Derby shirt. Didn’t go our way but not all doom and gloom.

Sorry not buying it.

Most teams in this beat Rotherham and they don’t have 6ft bruisers.

We played  their game like we did the other week and guess what...

Is it down to inexperience and not learning or knowing how to play these sort of games

Cocu lacked efl experience and wet paid the price. 
 

or are we a one man team KB ?

17 goals in 27 games is so poor, if we don’t start scoring and fast we really will be in danger 

We only have 2 players in this squad who can score out of nothing. Sibley and Lawrence. One doesn't get picked and the other is injured. Add to that Waghorn who has seemingly buried his shooting boots.

Be prepared for a long scrap.

Not worried about this one. We were always going to be fatigued. 

Two coach trips to Rotherham in 24 hours were bound to take their toll.

All those games of Snap take it out of you.

Oh yeah because Rotherham is way up in the Outer Hebrides.

Ahh but despite your sang-froid there will be plenty of shrieks as the bi-polar among us have their mood whip-sawing back from playoff contenders....... ?

My prediction of 18th to 20th still stands..... ?

We could not defeat their physicality. We needed to beat them on the break but we let them get back. Attacks not quick enough imo
