Interim manager Gary Mills has done a good job in the four games he's been in charge of Burton amassing 7 points with (surprise?) wins over Blackpool and Shrewsbury following a draw with Charlton after being battered by Oxford in his first game That's put them clear of relegation trouble for now.

As if we didn't know what to expect from Burton, I reckon we can double down on that now Mills has taken over as he's taken a struggling team and "gone back to basics".

Good article here on how he's going about turning the Brewers season around - a decent guide to their game plan - (don't faff about at the back - get it forward to Kamwa, Baah and Lubala to have a run at every opportunity and defend en masse when out of possession, with Brayford the anchor)

We should have enough to dominate possession and win - just need to keep an eye out for getting mugged on the break.

GD currently the same, so if we win and they draw we go top.

We need to win by three to overturn Pompey gd if they draw

Don’t think so we are same GD 

Always unsure what the best results are n games like Pompey v Stevenage and Derby v Posh. Are draws the best or do we want teams like Pompey and Derby to win to push the others lower? Whatever, it’s what we do that’s most important so a win today would help enormously.

Derby 1 up

Best result is a massive brawl on the pitch with 10 red cards each, a bunch of long term injuries to each side and a huge points deduction for bringing the game into disrepute.

Or a draw.

Need to spice up our passing game to beat this lot.

Vic's going to have to be a lot sharper than that to beat a quality keeper like Crocombe. It's going Mill's way so far so we need to sharpen up all over.

Think he must have been on the pop last night he’s so slow but then they all are at the moment, need to lift 5he pace here.

Exactly - play through them quicker. If we don't we're risking conceding from a set piece/corner.

Dion should have shot first time there.

I’m sorry but Victors just a liability, early change for Bod needed here.

FFS, can’t anybody shoot in this team, how many opportunities have we had now?

Horrible set of cunts these, but, we will not score if we dont fucking shoot!

All too passive

Victor two slow steps when around keeper then too late with a powder puff shot. Any real goalscorer would have hit it first time.

Certainly no worse than anyone else

Can i ask what he as done well?

You assume incorrectly

What's he done so wrong that he's deserving of being brought off before half-time?

A good half, Victor? Come on, he’s been terrible and sadly I just don’t see any improvement with him.
