Corky

It's not even the failure to win, it's the failure to even look like winning in the last 40 minutes. One shot tipped away in 90 minutes, one header off the post. 

If we'd bashed at their door and their keeper has a blinder, fair enough. But that was the worst kind of 0-0.

I think the Scottish fans will be in Wembley longer than we were after the Cup Final.

Oh look, Harry Kane isn't playing badly, he's unfit/ injured/  tired. Strange how this is never an issue when he's piling them past minnows in qualifiers.

He’s made 2 subs. We’re allowed 5.

People say it is Puelball but at least Claude took Mendy off now and then.

Lee Dixon is awful.

1 shot on target in 83 minutes.

Seen them given

Ball was going out of play, Sterling knew it and tried it on.

Oh fvck off Dixon, never ever a foul.

Fvck that was a chance for Adams.

DCL should give Vardy a call. They can have a chat about how it is literally pointless turning up for England duty with Kane and Rashford around.

Honestly think Kane and Vardy would've been a good partnership for England. What a waste.

Might stun the commentators but totally justified. Get the ball into Rashford on the last man.

I think we'll steal this late on but it has been a terrible performance.

Lyndon Dykes has been more effective than Harry Kane in 70 minutes.

My God.

Dreadful, one header against the post and their keeper not having anything to do. Scotland knocking the ball around well and looking threatening.

Didn't he bring in Chelsea Dagger as goal music?

Hated that. So glad when we binned it.

Oh what a shame we won't hear a belting rendition of Cheer Up Gordon Strachan. Steve Clarke doesn't scan

Just googled him. Was at Fiorentina for 22 days.

 

He's the Italian Gary Megson.

Sadly not. Megson actually managed games in charge of us and those of who witnessed them are still suffering.

Helluva sentence that @Corky  

Yeah I tried to make it fit, it sort of does but if not, oh well 

A lot of people seem to be walking away from a job Paul Robinson said managers would walk from wherever they were based to.

Cork is an absolute joke to be calling out Leicestershire bearing in mind his county career and our trajectory at that point.

 

Simply wouldn't have been in our side.

In his Derbyshire years we were probably one of the top five teams in the country across all formats.

I know it is lost in the love for everything Test County but from 1994 to 2002 we were a pretty strong team.

SKY are revelling in us losing. Same old SKY.

 

Hated it when we beat the fancied teams a few years back

Warwickshire hero Nick Knight and Derbyshire coach Dominic Cork in the fair and balanced commentary box. Plus the usual quota of ex-Surrey players because we always need ex-Surrey players.

Given the respective sections, I wonder what the odds would've been for us performing much better in the Championship?

Isn't Kingy a Bristol City fan? I'm sure I've seen it somewhere before.

Pearson getting good characters into the squad early.
