    Especially anyone who doesn’t usually offer an opinion, let’s hear from you

    Bolton. Won 3. Drawn 3. Lost 3. GD of -3.

    0-3 Derby it is then.

    Can't see anything other than a Derby win. I also fancy 3-0. The belief is growing among the players, let's hope there is no room for complacency.

    Oh dear...fine line between confidence and complacency. After Tuesday I’m going with my ‘heart’ again. Head say 2-0 to Bolton...heart say 1-3 to us.

    So I can see the Lord Mayor's Show heading off into the distance as Noone scores for Bolton whereas Noone has scored for the Rams

    After the Lord Mayor's show............

    Poor passing, insufficient movement off the ball to give the man in possession options. Free kicks and corners were awful. Lacl of composure. Some Kamikaze defending at times, Fozzy early doors, Keogh twice. We huffed and puffed but couldn't blow their house down. All too often choosing to go through the middle where they seemed to have 97 defenders...... Poor choices.

    Their game play worked well aided and abetted by our poor choices. They got the goal they never thought they would and held out. Credit to their defence as they got onto the end of just about every cross, free kick and corner. Kudos.

    The stats say 74% possession 17 shots and just the one on target. I would argue the amount as at least half were blocked by defenders but were actually on target. Either way, we weren't good enough today. It appears we have the same Achilles Heel we have had for a few seasons now. The inability to break down a massed and well organised defence. That has to be our number one focus now. How to get round and/or behind mass defences.

    A mate of mine needed Derby to score for £2500. He'd done both teams to score in 8 matches and got the other fif**** teams up.

    How the hell did Olkowski stay on after that tackle where his studs went extremely dangerously into Bennett's knee? Red all day but the ref only gave yellow.
