No. It’ll be interesting to see if he gets a ban.

They won't even consider looking at it because there was contact between the two players.

Totally agree , he's not a natural 10 but he was very influential first half

Not making excuses for him but it can't be easy sometimes playing for the team you support, doubly so when it's a place in the Prem at stake. You can see how much it means to him and it's a layer of pressure that few players will have to experience.

Little reminder Rudi is the best player in the league. Too much disrespect when he was obviously not fully fit. Steps up to the Prem no problem.

He's NOT the best player in the league. Clearly not.

Are you not following the script? Everyone keeps reminding us that it's Hayden Hackney!!

They are all right and you are wrong.

He would be classed as the best in the league if he had played all season

Again a very valid point , it has always irked me the amount of flak Josh gets . He's been massive part of our journey and has improved season after season along the way . Lampard obviously rates him as he's now above Torp in the pecking order so I just don't get the "easy target" from sections of our fan base

We are fucking going up. We are fucking winning the league.

All of my thoughts and concerns around the match itself pales in comparison to those two facts. I cannot believe this is actually happening holy fucking hell

That being said, the penalty was the worst refereeing decision I've seen in many many many years. How the fuck can it be a foul but not a card???

We looked a different team second half.

And they're not very likeable, but you can see why Derby have had a decent season.

To think, Birmingham sacked Eustace.

Got a lot of time for Eustace as a manager, apart from the silly accent.

Great win. Mve with a premier League performance

Hopefully we never hear anyone say were better off without rudoni again

And bit of egg in face for those doubting bringing in esse on loan

Were still on for 101 PTS and 100 goals!

Amazing times.

We're gonna win the league!

Well coached, but I again question where all the money they spent came from.

What a mental game that was!

Saka and Milan BOSSED IT down that right hand side tonight! They just never gave up and won the ball back countless times!

Although Tank and Grimes were abit quieter than usual they still did a job and was that a shot or a cross??.. who cares! The place fucking errupted!

A great team performance overall and super sub RRUUUUDDDDDIIIIIIIIIIIII


ITS HAPPENING!!!

It was clear from outer space.

The Artemis II crew complained to NASA and they suspended all maintenance work on the craft as a result .

I've been informed that none of the crew will return to Earth until the ref is sacked.

Decent bit that, they should get more younger managers in to talk the the game through after the match, way better insight than you get from usual expro pundits.

Think it was a good point about Grimes, he is just so consistent and transforms all the teams he's been part of. He deserves some proper recognition. Yes he's not as obviously flashy as others that will probably win champ player of the season but the worth he's brought in both quality on the pitch, and standards off it to the best team in the league I'd say there aren't many better. Never misses a match either
