Site Supporter desperado Posted December 4, 2024 Author Site Supporter Posted December 4, 2024 I’m not quite sure how. But last 6 home league games P - 6 W - 5 D - 1 L - 0 Imagine when it clicks 😂 Quote
gonzo Posted December 4, 2024 Posted December 4, 2024 I'm beginning to think it's better to just check our results and not actually watch them. Everyone else thinks we are bang in form. Don't conceede many and score plenty. Quote

It just hasn't felt anything like that watching us. Quote

We know there’s problems and we’ve heard lots about negative inconsistencies, trends etc But you can’t ignore that one. I think it’s even more impressive that we have done that, while pretty much all of us are in agreement that the seasons been poor so far and we aren’t playing well! Quote

It’s going to look fucking brilliant when we score first and play well 😂 Quote

Then play well second and go further ahead. Quote

But the results are 😀. Professional football isn't it, no style marks awarded. But it's been an almighty struggle so far. We can play better but in lieu of that, I'll take struggling to 16 points from every 18 👍 Quote
ianofcleveleys Posted December 4, 2024 Posted December 4, 2024 Let's see what the rest of this month brings and take stock over the last of the Xmas beers after those trips to Mansfield and Exeter. After Bristol R, next three will be the real test, Wigan, Wycombe, Barnsley, the ones beyond that ought, in theory, to be less challenging. Quote

And i think it will be the theme of the season. Derby lost late last season at Northampton (I think) and Warne got a load of stick off their fans then as they'd given us the initiative. Every chance Evatt gets us up this season with many fans still not backing him. Would be strange but not inconceivable. Quote
gonzo Posted December 4, 2024 Posted December 4, 2024 Derby were absolute cack for the whole of last season but just set about winning football matches. Quote

Sometimes you have to take a pragmatic substance over style approach, if you're reading Ian. Yeh there’s some clear similarities and differences with Derby last year. One of my best mates is a Derby fan and they spent most of last year thinking they weren’t good enough for promotion. They thought their football style was shit, they were very critical of Warne. They were winning games while playing shit. Even late on in the season, think it was Northampton (which they lost and were shocking) and Reading (they won being second best with a very dodgy penalty) they weren’t fully behind Warne and their promotion credentials, so as @thebells points out, it’s not inconceivable that could happen with us and our fan base However there’s some important contrasts. As you say @Traf the managers have very different styles, philosophies and approaches. The one thing that I liked about Warne, was how flexible and reactive he was in his in-game management. Quote
