    A day of surprises. More changes than I expected, especially considering the EFL rules for selection for the Trophy.

    Brown never really got into the game. He's a better player than he showed last night but got no decent ball

    Wilson took 25 minutes to get the better of their left back but was brilliant after that

    Collo started poorly, his first 4 involvements were committing 2 fouls and being caught offside twice. After that he played well and got the hattrick. Also Barks' MOTM. Not mine though.

    Young Weston replaced Brown at HT and was a revelation. All action, getting stuck in, an assist and a goal.

    My favourite player on the day was Fapetu. You wouldn't think he was making his senior debut. That cheeky 50 yard attempt shows he has great vision to go with his skill and work rate. Gets stuck into the oppo as well. We might see him and Weston on the bench in one or both of the next 2 games.

    Useful run outs and confidence boosters. Not sure how much more meaningful it was given the equivalent results for Barrow, Cambridge and Oxford against Liverpool, Tottenham and Chelsea respectively. Some encouraging performances apparently which is always good...but it’s what happens when Saturday comes that matters.

    What was encouraging is that so many academy players were in the team, that bodes well and shows that side of things is developing nicely.

    Yep we can nurture them, get them in the team then sell for Peanuts, the Derby way

    I thought the same, 15 point deduction incoming and some high fives and fist pumps doing the rounds at Efl headquarters.
