You can only assume that the lino has said that it touched his hand. Given Thomas post on insta, it obviously did hit his hand. I don't know why people are moaning about it, it's handball and a pen.

I was very impressed with Torp today. He did some good defending, fine playmaking and as we know he is one of the best shooters in the team. I thought he was the MOTM, although EMC and MVE were excellent as well.
For me, our midfield of Torp, Grimes and Rudoni is the best in the Championship. I don't think that Sheaf, when fit, will be an automatic starter even though I do rate him.

Said it all preseason that Torp links between Rudoni and our forward line better than our other midfield options . He also scores goals and creates chances , Lampard has to stick with the three that have played if we want to really go for it this season.
Sheaf , Eccles , Allen and Andrews will all play a part this season and fill in when needed but Torp , Rudi and Grimes is plan A

A great away day for us travelling fans & limbs that were hard to comprehend from everyone in the away end , come the 4th & 5th goal , absolute mayhem !
Shame about the 3 conceded ….. poor decision from the ref for their first , as not a foul , but could Rushworth have tipped it over ?
A definite 2 handed push in the back for their penalty .
Their 3rd , a switching off & scuffed shot , with Rushworth scrambling across his line .
QPR up next & hopefully another near capacity crowd to back the boys

Noticed this from the outset, we moved the ball quickly and with purpose. Even at 3-2 down it was a way better performance than the game at their gaff last season.
Deserved winners in the end.

A lot calmer and measured on the forum generally over night and this morning compared to last Sunday.
Proving the point … It is always and I mean ALWAYS the result that affects the opinion on here. Very little to do with wider context, discussion or reasoned nuance of where we are at as a team/club - despite some arguing the opposite.

People were moaning that he was pushed and he was. But it was more of a nudge and not enough to warrant an infringement of any kind. But that was the argument
Thomas apologised on Insta. He knows he got under the ball, he was nudged but it was his positioning that was the real cause.

A question for anyone who attended. Watching the highlights were the Derby fans as quite in reality as they seemed on TV? Even when they went ahead their celebration seemed muted at best.
Our away fans on form as usual. Well done anyone attending. A credit to the club as always.

Massive over reaction to last week and also this week, yes we attacked excellently, but some serious defensive shortcomings again……. And like last week, on another day we win 2/3.0 - important now to build on this Saturday.
observation from yesterday, how much fitter we look, levels never dropped, really noticeably from this time last year.

Yep don’t really here much at all from them, apart from after them scoring.
that was the loudest I’ve heard our away end for while (ignore play off leg away which was good) had banging headache last night - La La La La

I don’t think there has been on over reaction this week at all from the majority.
The players rating thread is pretty well balanced over all, especially, I would say.

I don’t dispute your point generally .. but the fact is we have conceded 1 goal from open play (& that was a second phase from a set piece), in 180 minutes.
We look most vulnerable from set pieces so far this season. That needs to be addressed, teams will know that & plan for that of course.

Watching on Sky there was clearly a problem with the Crowd/atmosphere microphones- there was virtually no noise when all the goals went in- it was very strange .

Something to build on and take confidence from, but I don't know how many teams in this league are going to be so naive.
Fantastic determination to keep going after some disappointing goals to concede, you have to be happy with 4 pts at this stage. Lots of good performances and moments but in context this was an injury ravaged Derby side who really let us control large parts of the game.

There must of been. They didn't get going mu h, but when they did it was pretty loud.
Thought we were loud, not sure if that came across

Tbf I commented "pathetic" when their 3rd went in but I don't think it was as bad as all that in terms of the header, more the marking/willingness to win the second ball.
A long throw like that is hard to defend, the lack of power on the ball generally leads to a scramble in the box.

A defeat knocks at least 2 points off every player's rating regardless of how they've played as an individual.
