    Derby vs Norwich

    Norwich was all over us in the second half we just sat back and let them walk all over us, they got awarded two penalties which one of them missed and one went in and we are in dire need, of attacking midfield power it’s dire as can be, if Rowett had put on Ledley & brought on Bradley Johnson earlier on in the second half we might have balanced the game out more but over all even that might of not made a difference.

    We got lucky today thanks to the brilliant Scott Carson keeping us in the game.

    Attacking Midfield free agents required pronto but should of done more in the Transfer Window in bringing some in, then just Kasey Palmer.

    Frustrating day at the office for the Rams need to see a better improvement in our midfield.

    Could be the start of our annual meltdown lol

    We need Ledley back and fast though, Thorne is dire imo and wont ever be the same player again. We don't look the same team without Ledley.

    Norwich have pretty much nothing to play for sitting in mid table and they outplayed us for most of the game, which is to be expected with our style of play but we lack our counter attacking panache without the Welsh bearded wonder.

    Yes and its only two weeks since they outplayed Chelsea for 210 minutes and only lost on pens some people need a reality check especially if they think Ledley is the answer to all our problems

    Going to Hillsborough on Tuesday night and our performances away this season has been fantastic to watch and I have been to a few away games this season compared to that of our home performances which have been constantly dull and boring and gives a better atmosphere overall.

    Feel sorry for the fans that had to pay a ticket to watch today’s game after our midfield showing today but at least they got to see a world class penalty save from Scott Carson so it’s not all bad.

    Absolutely right mista. They’re a good side, we had a dodgy day and I expect - hope for - a reaction on Tuesday evening.
    DCFCA’s comments on Thorne aren’t altogether wrong though imo. He doesn’t seem to be the majestic figure he was prior to injury. He lacks mobility and seemingly the confidence to go for that killer pass. It is a concern.

    Rowett should go all out and sign Victor Anichebe, he'll bang the the goals in, £40,000 a week on a 4 year contract should do it!

    Victor Anichebe was on £20,000 a week at Sunderland.

    ramAnag. Your right about Thorne he's obviously no where near the level he was but holding midfielder does not suit him he needs a bit more freedom to get nearer the oppositions penalty area that's where he can hurt teams Time to drop Lawrence he's really not contributing his confidence has gone at the moment I would put Palmer in for him and leave Anya where he is probably Nugent for Jerome I've got a feeling having to many old legs is going to cost us this season
