Rotherham v Derby

[beaufighter]

Actually, on reflection, it's not much effort at all. We only played for 8 minutes, lol

I'm so glad I decided to go and watch this today what a game!

I'm sorry Derby, but it's hard not to laugh. The shit Lee Camp gave you at the end was well deserved.

I miss Lincoln City and going to Sincil Bank.

I miss Lincoln City and going to Sincil Bank.

And I miss Millmoor, kinda! But I have to say, I was impressed with my first visit to your new ground.

 

[beaufighter]

A little OT but we'll be forgiven. I was a right old stick in the mud about that. Millmoor was our home, our history, I didn't want to go. Now I thank god we did.

Back on topic, yesterday was a very strange one. Derby County were, for 80 minutes simply the best side I've seen all season. They had the same sort of desire and fight that we've been showing lately but, when combined with the much classier and more expensive players they have, it meant they totally dominated us to the point it was embarrassing. We weren't helped at all by the absences of Wood and (can't believe I'm about to type this) Halford, meaning Collins and Green had to play instead, almost making it a 13 v 9 game, lol. But that also shouldn't detract from Derby's performance and, at one point, I was thinking how the Rams fans are going to be thinking that we are the shittest opposition they've ever seen. That's what makes the turnaround following both teams substitutions and Rotherham scoring three goals in a game for only the third time this season (Bolton and Bristol City being the others) and doing so in just 8 minutes even more remarkable. Yeah , it was just a point, but what a point.

Perhaps more worrying though is that even after this, and the three wins that preceded it, we are still in the bottom three.

I get your final point but on the other hand, the last 3 games and next against Ipswich are the most difficult games we had/have left between Leeds at home and Hull on the last day and we've come away with 7 points (I was expecting 0) we could have been 3 points off the bottom and we're only 1 point away from safety. With every game in April very winnable based on current form I'm not worried, reckon we could certify safety again under the lights at NYS against Huddersfield.

Btw we'd be more or less relegated by now with Redfearn I'd imagine. Useless c***,

Derby absolute tonked us for 80 minutes it was the most 1 sided game ive seen up till that point, the goals we conceded though were handed to em by the worst centre back ive ever seen in Danny Collins, the 3rd goal was a disgrace by him, the 2nd goal was offside aswel but we always get poor officials down here so not surprised, we finally started to have a go in the last 10 mins and after we managed to score the first goal the Derby players started to shit their pants and we just threw the kitchen at them and ended up getting a draw unbelievable! The Derby fans doing the chelsea dagger at our first goal and singing campy campy whats the score must have felt like right planks lol.

 

[Destruction]

Derby are TOO funny.

 

[Mr Elmo]

Always something new when you support Derby. Nothing even surprises me any more

 

[Luke_1884]

Inexcusable but it's not even surprising.

How we're still in the Play Offs is beyond me. Poor, poor league this year with only Burnley looking like they're taking advantage!

Stevie, that's very true, we've done miles better in the last three matches than anyone but the most deluded fans could have expected. I'm sure Warnock will keep us going, I just worry that others will pick up enough points to stay ahead of us.

Reaper, I think the antics in the way end made it all the sweeter. Obviously the Derby fans were going to be elated at such a dominant display and three away goals, but they weren't half dishing it out in spades, especially the very poor paedophile chants, which were particularly crass and go beyond footie banter. I've never heard the "3-0 and you fucked it up" chant sung by so many with so much fervour against anyone before. Or indeed anything much at all in the West Stand, lol
