Match Day Derby V Brentford

[Rammy]

This has home defeat written all over it.

Derby 0-2 Brentford

Hopeful for a draw but think Brentford will snatch it, 1-2.

I think the key here is to just remain realistic and patient despite getting that first home win at the weekend. There's a reason we've only scored 7 all season and have just 2 wins, that'll take time for Mac to change, it won't happen overnight.

We were pretty terrible defensively against Newcastle, they didn't really open us up, they just had very good final delivery, and met a defence that put in probably its worst performance of the season.

I think we'll improve a lot tonight, as there will have been some questions asked and a few of our players had their worst games of the season, but we're without Dean at the back, and he's been brilliant of late. I guess Bjelland will move into the middle (looking forward to seeing him there) and Barbet will come in at left back. There'll probably be a couple of changes as well for fitness.

Our team is as expected, Chris Baird filling in at LB for the injured Max Lowe.

James Wilson has returned to Man United for an assessment on a "serious knee injury". Doesn't look good for him.

 

[Luke_1884]

Stale result but probably the sort of game we'd have lost a month ago.
Still plenty of players playing well below par and until they get some form we won't be moving far from the foot of the table.

Sounds like Derby deserved to win, we were relatively poor again.

Not at all. Extremely dull game where if either team won it'd have been completely undeserved.
