Rioch's Braves 711 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Derby bottom of the league with one win, and a crap goal difference, it'll be very disappointing if we can't turn these over especially on our own patch, anything other than a win is a failure IMO, and not acceptable. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Redcar Rioja 5,975 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 The way the results went last night a win is now imperative if we are to keep momentum and belief going. A draw or perish the thought a defeat would be nothing short of disastrous. It does make you wonder "what if" at Blackburn had we seriously went for it. Of course we could have and then equally we could have lost but at some point NW has to start delivering a few wins which means he needs to change things at the sharp end. No better time to do it than tonight against what is currently the worst team in the Championship. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Old Codger 3,063 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Historically this is the sort of team we struggle against, but it is in our favour that they will not be coming here for a point as only a win benefits them. If we use the pace we have effectively and sit on their danger men, then the odds should be in our favour as I cannot see Warnock settling for a draw in this game. Might not be a big win, but if we can get a goal in the first twenty minutes, their confidence will not be boosted and we won't be on the edge of our seats for 90+ minutes. 2-0 should be possible and anything extra would be great.

DurhamRed 2,047 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 (edited) This is the most I've expected Boro to win in a long long time. It has to be a win tonight we have to make the rams look like lambs to slaughter! Link to post Share on other sites

TeaCider24 12,639 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Roberts for Spence would be my only definite change. Though I do think McNair needs a break at some point, and it'll be good to get Morsy back in to. Link to post Share on other sites
