Despite the negativity we’ve done ok - we are stopping conceding goals we’ve had an unlucky disallowed goal and missed a chance. It’s a big big improvement from a few weeks ago in terms of competing - it was like a Wild West shootout we’d lose every time with wing backs from the start

Much like the Cardiff and Brum games, we look solid and are creating chances. Can’t believe the comments on here

Fuck off Scrooge. And serious question to the 'master tactician': how do you think the back 4 you have so heavily been advocating is working for us?

It makes them look silly though.

If he plays well he will get credit. The fact he isn't and hasn't been isn't some kind of agenda. He has been a burden for most of this season so far.

Absolutely.. I will always give credit to a player but he isnt even good at closing down, doesn't make a challenge and most of his movement is lazy with no determination to try and get to the ball because he fears challenge coming his way, he is so frustrating because he actually has a decent shot on him

Yes but they were chances created by individual or team skill, previously we gifting goals.

I think we've done reasonably well, could go either way.

Missed first 20 minutes but from what I’ve seen we are playing that containing game we do in first halves and I’m expecting us to be more positive second half. But when we go forward our final ball is hopeless can’t just keep blaming Shipley but O’Hare, Hamer, Giles and Dabo have all been guilty with that sloppy crucial final ball.
Think we’ll be better second half.

They had a chance. We have the worst defence in the league and yet now aren’t conceding

Looks like Walker starts in an offside position but their defence drops back before ball is kicked.
Impossible to tell either way from the only daft angle that iFollow have showed.

It's as if you can only win if you don't concede any chances at all. More cracking SBT logic

We pretty much kept out top of the league for almost an entire game away at the weekend and only conceded from a non penalty

I think we’ll stay tight for 15 then switch to wing backs and two up front which will work well, especially against tired legs.

It’s frustrating watching us play within ourselves, but if our game plan is to do that for a period of the game before we push on, and it works then we can’t complain. If however it’s to do that for a full 90 that’s not quite the same.

Clive just referenced a warning for Dabo earlier that he would’ve supposedly have received when he won a free kick

It’s as if you have to score to win. The much maligned 5 at the back didn’t fare badly at all on Saturday did it? We are showing Derby way too much respect tonight.

Holmes looks like a real threat. We need to do more to keep him out of the game.
