We seem to be very poor away from home this season

All true, we cant really complain. We need to start putting in some good performance though.

I meant performance wise sorry
Minor disappointment sure...but didn't someone say this is the best away start to a season, results wise, since 1969-70? Let's keep some sense of perspective please.
Is this the result of a double whammy from the sky game on Sunday? We're now having to play two away games in four days and giving both of them an extra days preparation more than us.
As has been said, an away point is never usually a bad result.
Tonight's performance was a bit disappointing though.
We never really got into our stride.
Ince was pretty anonymous, Martin's flicks weren't coming off and Johnson's relatively early booking seemed to dull his all action tackling. Butterfield unfortunately didn't shine but there again, no one in a midfield or attacking sense really did tonight.
Shackell and Keogh were probably the pick of the Derby players along with Thorne giving Rhodes and Co very little all night.
Still, a point away while not playing particularly well is encouraging and the unbeaten run growing will help team confidence.
Hopefully, Huddersfield will see a better display with a few more of our team showing up.
