Seemed like 75% Dads and Lads that end

Winks is a much better influence than Barnes and Maddison who were taking KDH and Thomas down Turkey Cafe and the Grovesnor in Syston every other night last season

They’ve been given the attention they wanted

Forest away seems inevitable

Forest sing about us more than cov now if it’s worth anything

Much more confident with this being at cov tbf The crowd will demand they come at us early and that should let us pick them off late on

We never turn up at the city ground though, it’s a cursed stadium for us much more confident about cov on the other hand

They’ve opened sections of the Ricoh they never open for this one This is genuinely a massive game for them

Cov have opened sections of the Ricoh that haven’t been used for years for this one Genuinely the natives biggest day out in years

Puel looks better because he was axed at the right time 3-4 months later and he’d have looked a lot worse

Genuinely this was the side our fully fit squad couldn’t beat over two legd

That Villa team we lost too over two legs wasn’t strong opposition though Genuine piss poor side that barely stayed up whilst we were top 4 in the league at the time We played like complete cowards in the first league in particular Also made even worse by the fact we hammered them in the league twice that season

Rudkin must have been on holiday that day

Bedwetters can stand down

Didn’t we play these on New Year when Silva made his debut too?

If he’d been binned off after the Forest Cup game (as he should have) he’d be remembered a lot more positively. The last year was complete self destruction

Why are you spending New Years Eve arguing over the Irish dwarf?

Derby have very good home support numbers wise and this is defo one of the reasons behind it

We’ve played in 17 out of 31 PL seasons since 1992 That’s a better record than the vast majority of clubs in England

Noticeable how perceptions of the club have changed in the last decade Only people that seem to consider us a second tier club are a section of our own fanbase and Alan Smith

Thomas should be nowhere near the starting 11 next season , lad is worse than he was 4 years ago as a youth player

They were a very good championship side in the early 2010’s tbf, Only time we’ve won down there before tonight was the game after the helicopter crash

Natives getting restless

8 points clear of second, 11 points clear of third Don’t go up from this position and we might as well shut the club down

17 points ahead of the best side in the league as it stands
