Redcar Rioja 5,871 Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Just saw that Derby are at home to Sheffield Wednesday on the last day of the Season, that could be very interesting indeed. Rotherham are away to Cardiff. Poor Wycombe are away to us but at that point it will be all over for them unless they put a gravity defying run together between now and then Link to post Share on other sites

We have nothing to play for, and I'd much rather Derby go down than them. In fact make it blatantly obvious we're throwing the game, really *** that cheating *** Mel Morris off 🙂 Given how we've played some games, I'm surprised no-one's already accused of doing this. 😁 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Neverbefore 10,695 Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 I'll be really disappointed if we start with the same 11 or close to the same 11 that we've been playing recently. Try one or two of the kids from the start - our worst time of every game we've played this season has generally been the first 20mins. Maybe some youthful enthusiasm could help with that.

There again I'd put Captain Pugwash, Bagpuss and the Teletubbies ahead of Butterfingers. I think blaming the first goal conceded against QPR on terrible defending is a touch harsh 🙂 Link to post Share on other sites

It was a great goal and he deserved it with the effort but the nearest Red shirt to him was in Peterlee. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I'd be willing to give them a pass on that one though. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

It's a little different when it's a CB usually, you don't expect him to shoot like that from there, if anything you want to take away his options to force a long shot or speculative pass. Yes he could (and probably should) have had someone nearer, but I don't think they did much wrong there really. Link to post Share on other sites

We don't always see eye to eye on a lot of stuff but the above is spot on and well put, Warnock surely cant make the same mistake as last time or I feel like the fans will want him held account. Please Warnock entertain us......just for the remainder of the season at least. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

TeaCider24 12,396 Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 (edited) That bench, bloody hell. I guess Spence has gone too? Should still have enough to win in the starting 11. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

TLF10 4,440 Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Wow. So Spence, Fletcher and Britt completely dropped. Maybe they the ones he was sighting for criticism. Fisher went off injured last game? Coulson also not there. Link to post Share on other sites
