Funnily enough, conceding loads with a shit defence but trying to score more at the other end was a tactic of Tony Mowbray, that season didnt end well.....Right, I know many of you are new to association football and have only been watching the game for a very short while, but just to let you know, a match lasts 90 mins plus added on time.
Looking back at this match thread, you would have said we were certainties for relegation.
Anyway, we were the better team the whole game and only wobbled when they got that 3rd goal, which looked to me, like a miss hit.
Lots and lots of posts calling for FL to change things around, but we did constantly look dangerous and obviously now it's been proved the manager was right to leave things as they were.
Defensively, it's still a worry, but if we can keep on scoring goals at the other end, we'll be fine
Yeah, true. We definitely need to tighten up at the back for sureFunnily enough, conceding loads with a shit defence but trying to score more at the other end was a tactic of Tony Mowbray, that season didnt end well.....

Great team spirit to come from behind and win like that.
I think Brau has to just be thrown in soon. Tired of JDS/Bidwell debate. Both poor.Crazy game. The right result. We found some clinical play in their box at last. But we were awful defensively. We’ve got to sort that. JDS is goals against straight away and puts us into so much trouble. Really good from Grimes, BTA, and EMC today.
Great result.
Fair play. Once we went 3-2 down we went into full control mode although I think we dominated throughout, just gifting silly moments to them.
The tales of Bobby Thomas. Moments of brilliance tangled in with moments of calamity. Some dodgy moments from Rushworth too but a cracking 3 points and we move on….
Team looked sharp. We do need a new CB because if we can cut out these errors it would be more comfortable.
Imagine being a Derby fan. Excited for the new season. Played 2, lost 2, bottom and conceded 8 in the first two!
"The Aled Williams effect"!He's looking decidedly shaky already
Funnier if you're a Wrexham soccer ball fan.
No. Rushworth will be a good loan.Anyone else thinking dovin hurry’s up back ?
3-2 down break in play and our manager is stood on his own with his hands in his pockets.
Couldn't of asked for a better Championship welcoming for them. Long may teams keep giving them such a warm welcome.Funnier if you're a Wrexham soccer ball fan.
Agree what you say mostly. I thought Rudoni did OK. 7/10.Not sure what to think about that...insane, unbelievable, bonkers, all 3 ??
Having led twice, then going 3-2 down, i could feel that inevitable black cloud of depression starting to form...'typical city' i thought.
Then in 7 mad minutes, we were 4-3 up...on top of the world wooo hooo, and as if that wasn't enough, Torp then rifles another into the corner of the net, to imho, get the MoM award and our 5th goal.
Yet despite the great win, i have some niggles.
Rushworth looked shaky when ANY cross came in, Dasliva gave the ball away alot, and BTA, despite the goal, looked ineffective.
Even Bobby Thomas had a mad game, scoring with a front post header, then giving away a ridiculous penalty.
Rudoni wasn't really in the game either, which is also a worry.
But despite all that, we still scored 5.
MAD game.
I said last week I think Brau will be the starting lb by mid September. On today's viewing maybe mid AugustI think Brau has to just be thrown in soon. Tired of JDS/Bidwell debate. Both poor.

Until dovins backNo. Rushworth will be a good loan.
I hope so. And he does show moments of class. That 1-on-1 save v Hull last week that he didnt know was offside was a great stop. But then both Collins and Wilson are capable of the odd moment of brilliance.No. Rushworth will be a good loan.
Was thinking the same. Dirty dogs.Sakamoto groin injury
Grimes with a nasty gash
You're complaining about something that hasn't even happened. Just enjoy the win!
I'm sort of with you on this one.What a mental game
Really good going forwards, shite at the back
Torp and EMC great, BTA did well
I'm sort of with you on this one.
We were very very shaky at the back - that was obvious.
Some of that comes from the midfield - they are very "nice" and we haven't got (due to the rotation) a definitive sitting/defensive midfielder.
Going forward - yeah, we scored five.... but still can't help thinking that we need to be a bit more dynamic - Would like to hear others thoughts on this.
Still think we need a "focus #9".
Re Rushworth - they were VERY direct at times.
He was put under a lot of pressure with high balls and a lot of bodies in the mix. Did what he needed to do (1st goal - possible question mark!?) Feel Rushworth would deal with today better than Dovin (comments in this from some)
On the first Point, seemed more a CB issue for me today considering all goals came from set pieces and Thomas had the chance to header one away and the other just had to stick his hand down.I'm sort of with you on this one.

Equally rubbish to his first half performanceThoughts on the ref this half?
Yet nobody mentioned it. Odd.Equally rubbish to his first half performance
Wouldn't say he's an out an out defensive midfielder.What would you class Grimes as?
I thought Torp tackled back really well today.
I did. You must have been sulking you couldn't say bling or elite tactician.Yet nobody mentioned it. Odd.
Face like he'd just seen a barrel of mint sauce being rolled in for the post game catering.Haha yeah I saw that.
