I'd be more than flabbergasted if we manage a top six finish. I'd not be shocked to see us finish 14th downwards.

Fucking hell, imagine if you actually were a poor team.

I just don't think people comprehend just how poor we actually are.

The group of players are fine. However, the way they play as a team is almost bordering on criminal.

You beat us 4-0 and you didn't even play well.

Nevertheless, as I regularly say to Rammy in the box it is clear that Paul Clement is out of his depth. Get him out now and give yourselves a chance before it's too late.

Nobody could manage these bottlejobs.

Not sure it's as easy to call as that just yet. Giving the guy at least a season and his own players might be worth a shot IMO before we jump to conclusions. You don't become out of depth over 6 games.

Too late for what? The Premier Leagues not going anywhere. I don't really care for this instant success stuff. I just want to watch good football with a semi successful team. Change the football/approach and I'll be happy, the stuff we're playing at the moment is the issue for me, not the results.

He's clearly got ability, you don't fluke unbeaten runs and results over 23 games. We might not have played to the potential of this team but we were doing a lot of things right. The bigger picture will be whether his style fits with what we've been building over the past few years. The jury's certainly out on that front.

Our team this season have conceded 8 goals in the last 10 minutes, 4 of those came deep into stoppage time. That is what you call bottlejobs. If they didn't concede those goals then funny enough we'd have been 9 points better off at the time of Cotterill's sacking and then all of a sudden he doesn't look out of his depth at this level, which you so often said.

If you're not buying the "our players are bottlejobs" excuse that we had with Cotterill then I'm not buying it with Clement. Particularly given you're playing badly over entire games, not just crumbling at the end.

I think it is possible to fluke unbeaten runs if you have the luxury of spending 25m on a Championship squad, especially one that is already one of the best in the league.

I meant too late for this season. Why wait for next season if you can sack him now and massively enhance your chances of promotion?

Yeah, Clement may still scrape promotion through the playoffs, but that should be viewed as the absolute minimum. With the squad you've got you should have one foot in the Premier League already.

Maybe a 3/4 game unbeaten run but not x2 decent sized ones, with one including 8 clean sheets. Luck has got nothing to do with that. You don't fluke your best ever start to a season in 125+ years. Don't kid yourself about the squad being amazing pre Clement, we all saw last season how good it was when it really mattered.

A fair chunk of our fanbase want that to happen but I'm not keen on becoming a hire and fire club like some at this level. That'll be 2 managers in 8 months, despite us still being 4th with plenty of games to go. I wouldn't sack him this season but I also wouldn't have spent 25 million either.

Finishing in the Play Offs is the minimum requirement I agree but despite how much money we've spent you cannot buy a team and it's showing right now. Not to mention a few other decent teams in and around us. I'd wait until next season because he deserves a chance, he's a novice and what he's dealing with now is new to him. Do we sack him at the first sign of failure or do we give the guy a chance? Admittedly if this run continues and we don't finish in the top 6 then serious questions will be asked and rightly so but I'm hopeful he can learn quickly, adapt and get a bit more out of this team. I just want to see some improvement.

I must admit, Derby were really poor. We let them have the ball, sat off and they had absolute no idea what to do with it. Apart from the first 10-15 minutes when I thought we were in for a long night, I wasn't really worried about conceding, just frustrated that we have fuck all pace to hit teams on the counter (apart from Robinson who he didn't bring on for some reason)

Hahahahaha no way the soft c*** is crying :lol:
I think we may of made Swindon cry after beating them in the playoffs.... But crying because we held you to a 0-0 draw is fucking horrific.

I think we just retire from the league... Thats the best we're doing this season. We've definitely peaked.

No lads, we need you here flying the flag for shithousing. #TheWayForward

That's how I imagine most Derby fans. Proper smacked ass spoilt c***. Luke on 'ere is sound enough though.

But come on.....crying on public transport in front of people, over drawing a match in a fairly meaningless game of Football?! Unreal.

I bet he throws a wobbler until his mum lets him suckle her nips, when he's hungry.
