    Crowd trouble

    That trouble today in and around the ground will have been recorded and the old bill will study it very closely. pick the trouble makers out and a month or so from now will be bashing doors one Sunday at 6am. Those nicked won’t have a clue remembering what may or may not have happened while the...

    I haven’t seen the Hamer free-kick that hit the bar again but if Godden was in an offside position when it was taken under current rules he is off once he touches the ball

    Positivity (for once)

    If Godden was in an offside position when Hamer took the free-kick the decision unfortunately is correct, need to see it again.

    Derby crowd

    Back in the Jimmy Hill days it was said they stopped counting at the turnstiles 30 minutes from kick-off, if you look at some of the old pictures of the crowds at HR which were down as 27/28000 there seemed thousands more than that.

    Reality check

    Both Blackburn & Preston are established championship teams both with experienced championship players only last season they were both looking for top six at times. Of course it was disappointing to only get one point from those games we know it should have been atleast two, but that in itself...

    It is an option although apart from the Preston game Hyam has been excellent. I do think Rose has done enough the last two games to stay in the team and imo JCS should come back in, will be interesting.

    No bigger fan of McFadz than me but in the last two games Blackburn & Preston I thought he struggled in the last 15 or so minutes although admittedly part of that was due to the gap we had centre midfield. Michael Rose who I rate highly was okay in both games playing out of position on the left...

    Don’t see a lot of change from Wednesday think he will bring JCS back and might surprise us with Rose over McFadz. Although personally I rate Godden the better out of him and Walker two decent goals in two games gives Walker poll position.

    Bit of a turning point that moment it could have put us 2 up . I was looking right at the ref who was poor for us all game but it looked to me initially he blew for the pen but then seen the linesman flagging and gave the off-side, can’t argue with that but not long after Preston equalised...

    Best midfield pairing

    You correct Kelly was out numbered time and again in midfield.

    Not afraid of this fixture at all, put JCS back in gives balance and helps Maatsen having him alongside and we have Matty Godden back. Dabo has to play RWB. We went off the boil yesterday and paid the penalty Robins will get us well up for it we’ll be back in full swing Saturday as we did after...

    Best midfield pairing

    In fairness Robins has put his hands up to not changing things earlier he should have added to the midfield and I think going forward needs to look at his midfield options in away games.

    Whats the answer to the away form?

    We definitely need to look at the midfield area defending set pieces as an example, I like us leaving two up front but then we have this gap between them and defence and invariably the opposition pick up the ball from clearances

    Whats the answer to the away form?

    Last night so frustrating but let’s not forget we are still very much a work in progress team and still sitting fourth. This is an uncompromising division where anyone can really beat anyone, look at promotion favourites West Brom last night did the same as us. Robins obviously needs to look at...

    It is certainly a bogey ground. Even in the all conquering Jimmy Hill days I can’t remember winning there, the only thing I remember from my only trip to Deepdale in the 60s was seats on our coach catching fire but that’s another story.

    Looking at that picture again it does seem a nasty bruise but I’d have thought if it was joint or ligament injury he would have had one of those boot things on as a precaution. Wether it clears up in time for tonight though not sure, but should it not we have good options within the squad.

    Bright and Robins

    In comparison there is a new academy player at the club, whom I know of, and whom one of my kids knows well, who is working his butt off getting opportunities at a young age and is giving his everything to the cub, his teammates and the management. I would wish nothing more than see him thrive...
