Cam the Ram Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 1 minute ago, Alpha said: Shithousery performance by Derby failing there. You can blame the ref but that was utter nonsense again. No direction, no responsibility, no leadership. The exact sort of team that we would face under McClaren and get annoyed when they'd fluke something off us. It was a penalty. That was deserved. And that could have been avoided if somebody took some responsibility on the ball. Or if there was any kind of direction beyond kick it up and head it on. Torquay managed to play so it wasn't impossible to ask for Derby to at least compete in that second half. If Torquay had scored earlier in the half they might have gone on to win it too. Such was the open invitation. Only seen this since the Ipswich game but I'm assuming this isn't a common approach to games? A bunch of midfield bottlers, forwards with just a general "do stuff" instruction and then defenders encourage to just play the percentages? Is that one Warne is about? The approach is usually get the ball out wide to NML and hope he can beat his man to produce something. When he's taken off we've not got many ideas apart from clear it and hope we can hang on.

Tamworthram Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 2 minutes ago, Loughborough Ram said: I thought that we were poor second half but the ref was worse. We didn't manage to hold the ball up at all once we went down to ten men, Dobbin, Osula and Collins all guilty of terrible decisions in possession. If you didn't know better you'd believe that the ref had a dressing down at half time for being too fair. You’re wrong. We were far worse than the ref.

desirelines Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 FA Cup always throws up strange results. Let’s not top ourselves just yet. As far as I see Torquay have earned the right to a nice payday and a battering at Pride Park. Crewton, MickD, Miggins and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not just put the game to bed when we were cruising? Makes it so much harder when Derby County do Derby County things. We say it every week. Creating chances aren’t the problem anymore, it’s putting them way. Ted McMinn Football Genius, Crewton and SKRam 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cam the Ram Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 If it's any consolation, Liverpool are giving Spurs a bit of a battering at the minute and we go there next with a a half fit team, lacking confidence after having just been outplayed by the team sat rock bottom of the National League.

I’m not a wrist slasher but the performance needs to be called out. 6 penos conceded in 8 matches. Awful second half. Truly awful. Well done Torquay but fans are right to be angry.

DRBee Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 Cue ridiculous over the top comments from posters who really don't seem to have a clue. FA upsets happen and the psychology that underlies them makes it no surprise. Fan-favourite Cashin is the one who might deserve some criticism since it was his conceding a penalty that changed things but Hourihane is a much easier target for the mob.

SecretDave Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 All went downhill when Hourihane came on. He needs to start showing something because he's been a massive let down for us so far. At least we have a replay to try to redeem things. I hope Warne tells them some home truths in the dressing room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
