A grudge match, with Steve Gibson public enemy number one. Hopefully a good win, going for 3-1

Last night’s Boro’ result may be a cause for concern. They’re off to an impressive start. Where’s that new ‘keeper?

They totally dismantled Leeds in the second half last night with aggression, quick inter passing, a lot of skill and clinical finishing. Mmmm, we might need more than a new keeper to shut Gobbo up!

Even in their opener against Swansea, with on just 36% possession, they managed 18 shots, 4 on target and limited Swansea to 5 shots, none of which were on target.

I'm going 1-3.

I tend to agree with MA, 1-3 defeat.

[Geoff Parkstone]

Not confident at all....2-0 victory

[swaledale]

I think 1-2, we shall be unlucky to lose!

[Ramshank72]

0-0 if we're lucky

[MadAmster]

One question arises from that game... how on earth did we win? 29% possession. 3 shots to their 20. 2 on target to their 4. Bonkers. Not complaining though.

How often have we seen the Rams boss a game and lose 1-0, undeservedly? This time round we were under the cosh for much of the game and nicked it.

I still say Boro are a very good side who will be top 6 or better come May.

MOTM by a country mile is Vickers.

Bobby Madley is a tw@, is a tw@, Bobby Madley is a tw@, he hates Derby.

Un Chuffin believable.
