Calve.......Nosworthy.....Bartley......Jordan
Ward....Montgomery..Britton......Yeates
...............Evans.....Cresswell.............

Subs: Aksalu, Morgan, Lowton, Ertl, Quinn, Chappell, Bogdanovic

Just the one change for me from that. Morgan should have to wait for his chance to get back in IMO.

They're drinking at the Pride Park, an Innkeeper's Lodge pub near TC Harrisons.

No they aren't because it closed down last Friday

Well Foxy set off about an hour ago. They're drinking at the Pride Park, an Innkeeper's Lodge pub near TC Harrisons.

Memries eh Judge??

 

[Nick Jansky]

From the Radio Sheff commentary it sounds like we are playing very well indeed. Keith Edwards says the passing is the best he has seen from us for a long time.

 

[Linz]

Half time and the Derby fans are booing...

 

[Muttley]

Half time and the Derby fans are booing...

Is that because they all wanted us to play long ball and look like twonks? ;-)

 

[Blade58]

Great to hear we are playing football

Shame the one fella I've lost faith in is carrying on were he left off!

COYRAWW

 

[Mad Mick]

Hope we keep it up second half. Sounds really good.

 

[Mad Mick]

Also with Scunny and Portsmouth at home to come, a good result today and the next 2 matches mean we could be well up there.

 

[Linz]

Foxy's comments on Twitter about Edwards are interesting...

Sensational first half display. Should be well out of sight

 

[ThatJa]

Nice to see Derby haven't managed a shot yet, not even one off target !

 

[Mad Mick]

I wonder what KE's agenda is?

 

[Mad Mick]

Yeh I noticed that, I just assumed any had not been registered on the live commentary.

Just read that and would agree. He's a goal away from a great performance. Think a few blades here agree with edwards tho

Only a few?

 

[alcoblade]

A year and a half of bad luck, is it really feasible? More likely is that he's just bobbins, and his displays and goal tally suggest week in week out.

(here's hoping my input will bite me on the arse........)

He's also had a year and half in an underperforming side with an awful manager in charge of him.

So many variables can contribute to a striker's poor performance.

 

[Nick Jansky]

Sounds like he's getting into positions where he is getting chances, which has to be a positive.

That doesn't excuse work rate, commitment and determination tho does it?

For me, it isn't just about finishing prowess, although I appreciate strikers have to score goals.

He looks one hell of a lazy, idle player imo.

When your in space with the ball, no manager or players around you can make you look talentless, it's all up to you. I agree he might pick up in a better team, but for me he's by far the biggest waste of money United have ever squandered. Come on Ched, prove me wrong......

[Houso]

As long as people don't boo him during a match, I have no problem with people disliking him.

I'm simply happy to give him a few more matches in a better side to improve.
