I'll give him until April Fool's Day, which seems apt down at Pride Park!
Two wins in nine, out of the top six, it all started well enough but now Frankie Boy's in a bit of trouble at Derby. After the spanking at Villa he had four consecutive home games to get his season back on track, one win, one draw and Stoke City next up tonight in the third one. It's not looking good for the golden boy, must win games in early March, it wasn't meant to be like this. Derby aren't known for their patience, how long has he got ?

I think they’ll stick with him Sinkov at least until they see what happens at the start of next season and rightly so Imo.
Game against Man Utd springs to mind - superb football but a very young team.
They are just short of a Joey Barton centrally and a better experienced centre back to play with the lad from Chelsea and they’d take some stopping I think. ( Keogh can be alright but has a few mistakes in him ).
Maybe we’ll get to see him live next year anyway , hope not but possible.
They should give him time Army I agree, but managers don't last long at Derby, their last five averaged under 7 months, Frank has had a lot longer than that already. Do leopards change their spots ? His job is on the line and no mistake.
Another two points dropped tonight, two wins in ten, and Rotherham next up at home. Frankie could do with winning that one, 5 of the next seven are away from home. Not looking good for the next England manager as was.
Who knows with mad Mel, Candy Crush? I would stick with Frank and I think most of the fans will too
Still in with a chance of the play offs Rammy,just as we are still in with a chance of relegation .. Great in it football. Lol
It surely is Alf lol
That's the problem for Frank and Derby though Alf, a chance of the play offs is all they've got, and it's a rapidly diminishing chance.
The top four are away and gone, Boro in 5th are two points in front, have a game in hand and a better goal difference. They're clinging on to the last play-off spot by their finger nails, Bristol City are one point behind with a game in hand and a better GD, Villa are just two points behind with a better GD, PNE are just two points behind with a better GD, Forest are just three points behind with a better GD, even Brentford in 14th are only 6 points behind with a better GD. 6th place is up for grabs, and Derby have no more chance of it than half a dozen others.
And their form has gone off a cliff edge, the goals have dried up, just 7 in their last 10 games, and the points have dried up, 6 from their last 7 League games, that's relegation form. After Rotherham at home on Saturday, 5 of their next 7 are away from home. They really do have to beat Rotherham on Saturday, but even that might only be a temporary reprieve. Derby aren't in business to offer apprenticeships to prospective England managers, they are in the business of winning promotion, and if Frank doesn't deliver they'll give someone else the chance.
it would be a shame, he seems a nice lad, I've never heard a wrong word about him, he's well liked and respected, but this is football and it's unforgiving. Frank's job is on the line, just the way it is.
