Not really proved anything other than Colin can pick who he plays and when he plays

Looking for a positive, if we do well in those games and make the play offs, it'll be the perfect warm up psychologically for the team just before playing 2 of those teams again.

Now that's the spirit. All these gloomy predictions of doom, has been pretty boring to read over and over again.
As that Norwich lass said, ' Let's be having you!!'

Here's the EFL response after submissions by the two clubs -

The EFL has now had an opportunity to consider the submissions of both
Derby County and Cardiff City following the postponement of their
Championship fixture on Sunday 18 March.

We remain satisfied that the decision to postpone the fixture was the correct
one in the circumstances at the time and that Derby County had made every
effort to ensure the game had the opportunity to be played. They also
communicated with the relevant stakeholders as it became clear it was in doubt
due to safety concerns.

It should be noted that matchday safety is a matter for the club to determine and
the EFL’s policy with regard to the Safety Advisory Group (SAG) is in place to provide
a qualified ‘third party’ sign off for any game where the condition of the pitch is not
the primary concern, so as to avoid the circumstances we saw on Sunday.

From the information that has been assessed, it is clear that the decision to
postpone the match was taken by the club but was reached following earlier consultation
with the SAG, which includes the Police, other Emergency Services and Derby City Council.
They agreed with the recommendation put forward by the club and that position was
confirmed via the Safety Advisory Group (SAG) Chair shortly after the 8:30am announcement.

Shove that where the sun don't shine Colin.

The point of Warlock's outburst has been achieved!! He has already put grievance into the mind's of his players!! He has set them up nicely so that when the match is played he won't have to motivate his players, they will be itching to kick ass!!

I disagree, I think he could have done that behind closed doors. By making it public, he's really wound up the Derby players and fans.

He's good Warlock, but even he won't be able to wind up our lot!! Easier to raise the dead!!
