Tombo Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 Friday 10th September 8pm KO St Andrews Trillion Trophy Stadium Some of the news and rumour about the club over the international break hasn't been pleasing. Let's try to get back to the football. In a bizarre turn of events, it's when I'm watching Derby County play this season that I'm actually at my least disappointed with the club. 1-0 Shinnie FGS (Side note, apologies I was a little slow getting this thread up. I've not been around for a few days) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anag Ram Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 Hurrah, an actual thread about a football match! Looking forward to seeing the boys on the pitch again. Hope we get a win to lift everyone's spirits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foreveram Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 Got my real actual tickets for this and WB in the post yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkle Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 It will be an interesting team selection mainly due to all the international games and players returning late or with knocks. I am expecting us to be moving to 3 at the back with the two wing backs especially against Birmingham and WBA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ram59 Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 Coming from Brum and surrounded by bluenoses, this is a big game for me. I'd take a draw now, if offered. From what I've been told, blues are playing well atm. They have got a good youngster on loan from Man U, playing wide right and have just made a great signing with Troy Deeney coming 'home' to his boyhood club. I think that they may be the surprise team of the championship this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I expect that our current style of play is our main focus and we won’t be changing to match up against opponents unless we need to during the match.

EraniosSocks Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 Dreading this game. A team that is very close to me is the Blues, due to them being my late Grandad’s team and watching them numerous times during my early and late year's of childhood. Deeney's Homecoming, seem to have started the season very well also. With Joz seemingly looking like he will be playing against England on Wednesday, I’d expect (if Lawrence is fit) Lawrence to move to the vacant position and Stretton to come in upfront. 1-2 Rams ?

Sparkle Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 Early yet but here goes Roos Stearman Jagielka Davies Byrne Buchanan Bird. Shinnie Morrison Baldock. Lawrence no start for Sibley or Jozwiak in this one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rampage Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 If we get anything out of this game then it represents real progress in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His confidence should be high after his U20 call up as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derby blood Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 Wilk be watching this on sky, as its a friday night kick off, looking forward to another Derby performance with guts, effort andvskill, feel if we can keep Deeney quite, which we can, we might nick this one by the odd goal, gping 2-1, to the Rams, Lawrence and Curtis from a corner to send the 1000 travelling fans mad.

Coneheadjohn Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 Jukewitz will get his usual brace so 3-2 Derby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r4derby Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 Wonder if the international players will be able to start this game, seeing as they will all be returning quite late in the week. Buchanan, Sibley, Watson, Jozwiak (and Ravel) that’s a big list of players in and around the 11. Might have a couple of scholars on the bench again, just to make up the numbers. Hopefully Baldock will be back fit, along with Festy. The intl break has come at a good time this season with our depleted numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they did and then they will be lighter in midfield and we might outnumber them there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
