Nice to see us socially distancing when defending!

No teeth. No bite. Never looked like scoring. Way too many awful passes.
Marshall did nowt wrong
Byrne was OK but gets caught in possession too often and too many wayward balls
Wisdom was OK, no more than that.
Clarke played a decent game
Forsyth didn't
Shinnie off his game
Bird OK in flashes
Roberts beats men for fun and then wastes it all
Knight ran a lot
Lawro decent shot for the disallowed goal and not much else
Kaz never really in it
Have they given up the ghost?
Looks that way.
It does look that way, MA.
With two home matches against Brum and Wednesday to come we’re not technically done for, but I can’t honestly see us getting anything from either of them. They’ve both got far more fight and team spirit than our shower and Bowyer has done more for Brum in five or six weeks than Rooney has managed with us in four months.
Who’d have thought the last time you made the journey from the Netherlands to Pride Park that your next trip would be to a League One fixture? Difficult times but...there are more important things than football.
Its all Lampards fault!
It runs far deeper than that!
It's the culmination of several years of mismanagement of the club at every level! I shan't go over what's been said many times before in respect of the hotch potch way the club has been orchestrated in recent years, whether it be 'The Derby Way' or the appointment of 'high profile' managers but, as always, it's the life blood of the club that has to 'carry the can' - the fans!
The baalocks known as the 'Super League' is an excessive demonstration of this, where the fans are looked upon as 'plebs' whose sole job is to tip up their wages every week and 'shut up'. 'It's got f*** all to do with you' being their mantra.
Oh well, I've seen us in the 3rd tier a few times before so I'll just have to suck it up again. Fair enough, but please, whoever owns the Club, can we have a structured plan, a manager who knows what the duck he's doing and a few players who were not previously employed as eunochs!
Full circle? When I left the UK for the NL it was just a few days after a 2-1 defeat away at Millwall in the Football League Division 3. I hadn't missed a League game up to that point that season. Drove down with 2 mates. Sat in one of their stands amongst a load of dockers who told their young guns to do one when they came to "have a go". Apart from that little episode with the Wall eejits, it was a very enjoyable day out.
Are we now doomed to return whence we came in '84? I hope not but it's not looking rosy at the moment is it?
I still think we'll stay up, but I fear we'll repeat the same mistakes next year.
