Couldn't get my hand on any tickets, ... Probably a blessing in disguise hehe

Just saw that Direby 5-0 is 70/1. Got to be worth a cheeky tenner! If they don't better last years result with how we are playing they need shooting.



I am interested to see the squad though, is Britt fit? Let's play Abdoun as the secret weapon boxedin

What ever happened with Abdoun? Didn't he upset everyone or something?
I thought he looked pretty decent when played.

IIRC Didn't Pearce tell him he was not part of his plans?

Abdoun did look good in patches, But he was a ball greedy so-and-so. Especially when he upset the status-quo when he snatched the ball from Henri for that Penalty. (Such a good job he scored it) and then celebrated on his own. Don't think he made many friends that day.

The trouble is, I bet he will have the last laugh by joining a bigger & better team.

Would appear Danny Mills has said what a lot of people have been thinking for a long time...

Personally I find it hard to disagree

Whilst I don't disagree wholly. Radio Nottm tweeted this last night from Danny Mills Wiki page as soon as the story broke claiming sour grapes

.... or he could have seen first hand that Pearce hasn't got a clue.

No real evidence to suggest sour grapes though, just an excuse for those who won't see past the SP romance.

Living in Liverpool I'm detached from such things as local radio & as much a SP is a club legend I've always doubted his appointment as Manager thinking it was made with the heart & not the head, his management record does not suggest he is a good manager.

Whilst we will all agree managers need time, if this was anyone else, lets say Mick McCarthy for example, the calls for his head would be ten fold!

That own goal I think has sealed Pearce's fate.

Oh boy, how sweet was that!
Very pleased that for once the players gave SP their all.
Great performance at the back after a nervy start, Osborne was superb and I like the look of the two new guys.
Is it me or are we more composed with DeVries in goal rather than Darlow?
I felt we looked better when Lansbury dropped back and Teshe move forward.
I hope this becomes the catalyst for better things, but we need at least another season in the Championship.
Suprisingly Derby looked pretty ordinary in the second half.

We were absolutely wk in the second half, I think Pearce got your boys fired up at half time whereas we came out thinking we could stroll it, they found out that they couldn't and you deserved the win in the end. I did think your defence was a bit suspect in the first half though.

A quick check in from a Swiss ski resort - great result! Particularly a last minute winner at their place hehe

Come on now Psycho, build from this and end the season in decent form.

Very sore head this morning hehe

Great result in the end, and to think I very nearly left the pub at half time after our dire first half...

Benny Osborn, instant hero status. And he's a derby fan too!

Yes I read this morning thT the bloke that got at Kelvin has been arrested this morning? Not sure how true it is though.

Derby lads trashed Fawazs motor and the team coach by the sounds of it.

Great result but we must built on it now, next 6 games are against bottom half teams so we must kick on from here.

Hopefully "that fan" will be banned for life. Don't think too many derby fans would disagree!
As for the fans who apparently damaged the team bus & Fawaz's car, I can only hope that they are punished as well as no team in the country wants supporters like that....

As a Derby fan, well the team doesn't matter, any fan, I just don't understand why you would go on the pitch and confront a player, it's never going to end well for you, especially trying it on with someone the size of Kelvin Wilson!!!
apparently, according to the local paper, the people damaging Fawaz's car were caught on camera, no excuse for it and hope they get what's coming.

Most sensible derby fans would agree that based on the second half we didn't deserve anything from the game.

I couldn't agree more. See, it is possible for Forest & Derby fans to get along. thumbup
