As I can't find one, I thought I'd make one (I'm probably the only Rams fan here) haha.

Anyway, we're 2nd in the table. Something we did NOT expect to be seeing when we started this season, that goes for all fans as we had Mr Clough in charge.

What a difference McClaren has made.

I think we'll finish 2nd, play offs is a cert though, QPR and Burnley just can't seem to keep up their early season results. So the title is there for Leicester's taking, in my eyes.

Hope we keep up this fantastic run, it'll be nice to be back in the top flight.

smile The Rams are going up!

will be interesting to see if the board invest big in january. best chance for years of playoffs or automatic promotion. couple of big loan signings will help......
It will be, the money from renaming the stadium recently (though I still, and will call it Pride Park) should help, hopefully get someone who can help us score 3+ goals a game consistently, I can't see much more of the team that really needs tweaking, 2nd in the table after a few years of nothing shows something good is happening with what we've already got. Just need to keep it up, a point against Leicester and to beat Wigan and I'll be happy with the start to January (even if we lose to Chelsea).

Went to the game tonight, absolutely fantastic match, worth every penny of the ticket price, and id've happily paid double to see it. At 2-0 down, I honestly couldn't see us winning, though we outplayed Yeovil a lot of the time, they put up a great fight. They were unlucky to lose to our last gasp goal, but based on our overall (and definetly second half performance), we wouldn't have deserved to draw or lose. That's football for you. Fantastic atmosphere, brilliant game, great fightback by the Rams, we just need to get back to winning (or at least unbeaten) ways. Away to Brum on Saturday, hopefully get all 3 points there (but Brum aren't an easy opponent by any means).

So what did we think of last night's performance?

Poor, in my eyes. We didn't deserve that win, but we'll take it, as its an important one.

Brighton were tough last night, and I'm expecting them to be even tougher Sunday.

But looking forward to an attacking match, Brighton will chuck everything at us, and hopefully we'll get them on the counter attack, much like yesterday.

Just been and got my ticket for the game, had to watch last nights in the pub.

4-2 on Sunday to the Rams, so 6-3 aggregate. Then it's off to Wembley!!!!

Big night (for Man U - haha!). Can't see us winning tonight but I CAN see a draw. I just don't think either team has it in them to win, let's let the football do the talking though.

COME ON YOU RAMS!

Anyway congrats on last night, though as a Forest fan, naturally I don’t want you to go on an win it.
Us Rams fans do our talking by selling out play offs, something Forest fans can only dream of.

Went to the match last night, I've not felt as sick in a long time as I did when Marriott put his second goal away, and I started dreaming of Wembley.

I'm not getting too hyped up over Villa in the final as that will be just as tough, and I know that Leeds were a man down before we got our 4th, which helped us, and Roofe being unavailable, I'm not going to lie, he was a big miss for Leeds.

I'm still in a small state of shock this morning, work later and that involves mixing with some Red Dogs who've not been kind to me recently regarding our chances against the dirty Leeds, so it'll be nice to put them in their place.

And what a way to do it, overturning the deficit, away, and being 2-0 down early on in the first half, in the tie.

Just very proud of the lads for showing achieving something like that IS possible for Derby, and looking forward to either being in the Prem next season, or having given it a damn good go.

[quote=Mr Roper] (Can anyone enlighten me as to why Cole got a start?)

Fozzy injured, Malone suspended.

3rd choice left back, and has big match experience.

(I know I've quoted that wrong, on my phone)

Rotherham have Brentford next.
Brentford have nothing to play for as playoffs are practically guaranteed.
Pride?

Would you really want to get beaten by Rotherham?

The interesting thing is that there'll be three teams across 2 games going flat out for 90 minutes to get wins!
There won't.

Just Rotherham and Wednesday.
