Predictions Sheff Weds v Derby

[ramAnag]

Really hope he brings Nugent back, I think he links up better with Vydra, we can always replace him in the last 20mins with new legs. Also Ledley for Thorne.

Well that worked well!
Just the predicted dodgy spell that all except Wolves have/will go through...or something more serious?

Incidentally in your new found role as mod-sneak, Romanis, are you going to report the repeated swear filter avoidances above?

Ah you're mistaken. I discriminate. Especially against those who call me sneak

The bottling process has started, I wonder if we're going to nail that coffin?.

COYR.

Although I'm now down in the dumps I still prefer Nugent and Ledley over Jerome and Thorne. The change of 6 for me was far too many! Also I always think we look like conceding when Forsyth plays! I'm hoping that the unbeaten run will make us more attacking as over the last half dozen games we seemed more hell bent on keeping a clean sheet than going for 3 points! Totally gutted but think if the right team is picked we could still get autos!

Vyrda's 18 goals, God knows how many clean sheets, controlling games even when the other team has the ball, undefeated away in the League since September, undefeated anywhere in the League since November 28th. Of course it was all down to luck............. Some will say but I find it an absolutely ridiculous idea.

We are not streets ahead of the others in this race. That is Wolves. Behind them there are half a dozen sides who can lay a reasonable claim to promotion this season. Derby is one of those sides. There was always going to be a blip along the way. It has happened over the last few games. Draws rather than wins and now the first defeat since Pontius was a pilot.

There may be one or two more poor results in the offing before we go again and ramp up the pressure on Villa and Cardiff for second place, hopefully not a poor result next Wednesday against the DYS.

Fortune favours the brave. Is being brave from here on in doing what has worked all season or do we recognise that we have to make the difference ourselves and maybe go to a slightly more positive approach with just the one DM and 5 attacking players rather than 4?

My personal view is that we should take the initiative a bit more.
