Matchday Thread: Derby v Ipswich

[ramAnag]

Plenty of options online and some of it vitriolic. Personally I saw it as passion to get the game moving.

Not a word seconds later when eames was being manhandled at the other end.

Hes not got a good record I agree and he needs to sort that but I've seen the replay a few times and nothing can convince me it warrants a yellow.

I thought we competed well after a slow start against a team that could yet go up automatically. Put that performance in next week and I think we beat Swansea.

Misunderstood. Thought you were referring to the two critical comments on here. Don’t take much notice of other online sources.

The o.g. was just a mistake, albeit one that was so ‘well placed’ it was difficult to fathom and I agree about yesterday’s performance, Swansea next week and that the ref may well have been conned, but eight yellows and a red in just over 1000 minutes of football for Derby is something we can’t afford, least of all from a captain.

Some good stuff played by Derby without looking to threaten. They played some good stuff and when Josh didn'e save it, it went in. No complaints at the loss from a footballing perspective. Good debut from Murkin, good cameo from Banel.

More worrying is the lack of senior players on the bench. All got the same virus JWZ has? Good to se 3 young uns on the bench all the same.

The ref? What was he playing at? Batth gets an elbow to the face early doors (Furlong?) yet the free kick gets given against him? Furlong really deserved a card on 4 occasions later in the game. He certainly wasn't anti Ipswich.

A game to forget.

The captain needs to be more smart there, we were 2-1 down at the end of the game, he's already on a yellow, it's a bad decision in the heat of the moment.
We're showing standard midtable form, which is fine with me, but it would be nice to see the home faithful go home with a good feeling now and again.
Onto the next!

Agree with everything you've posted there RS, nothing more satisfying than a few home wins.

Travis. 14 aoppearances in a Derby shirt. 8 yellow cards of which 2 against Ipswich saw him get a red one. Unacceptble, IMO, from any player, even more so from the club captain.

Someone needs a word...
