Coombsy Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Posted 2 hours ago Grant Christie Keogh Shackell Warnock Hendrick Thorne Butterfield Ince Martin Russell Johnson was poor against Brighton and failed to link up play with Martin and Hendrick will try and take his opportunity to cement his place in the first team. They've got some dangerous players like Kojida, but they have been awful defensively and hopefully it should be a comfortable win. mozza You can't improve perfection..

Give them the same number of chances Huddersfield had against us and I would expect them to. Nonetheless, the FA seem to want the game played rather than just give them a walk over. Its football.

ChippenhamRed Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 I understand the expectation that we will be beaten in this game, but our results so far against the current top seven give cause for optimisim I believe:- 1. Brighton - LOST (AWAY) - but a narrow loss, and we played well and created chances, were denied a definite penalty and might have won. 2. Boro - WON (AWAY) 3. Hull - DREW (HOME) 4. Derby 5. Burnley - LOST (HOME) - Burnley probably the better side, but again another game in which we created chances and may have got a result on another occasion. 6. Ipswich - DREW (AWAY) 7. Cardiff - DREW (AWAY) - A game we dominated, played really well and should have won. I am not claiming we will go to Derby and win, and the failure to take chances is a recurring theme I know, but that's not a horrendous return against the better sides in this division.

He is a forest fan but was desperate for the cash" Firstly, Rams supporter here just finding out the general feeling from you guys before tomorrows game. Great forum btw, more lively than many I've viewed. BUT, you can discount this ridiculous notion that we "pay" fans to watch games - absolutely ridiculous. (btw we have NEVER had just 4k to a home game), this was an old rumour put about by forest fans to explain why we have so many more supporters than they do. Since we have over 23k season ticket holders, and allocate around 2 - 3.5k to away support the maths just doesn't add up. Derby offer no more complimentary tickets than any other club, the season ticket holders would go ape if we did! Anyhow, not all Derby fans think it's going to be a walkover tomorrow, you have had some decent results against the "so-called" big boys in this division, and the championship is the kind of league where anybody can beat anybody on the day. We've not been clicking just lately and I reckon it will be a tight affair, maybe us just shading it by the odd goal in 3. Always had a soft spot for Bristol city, and used to be in the club social club to get a drink before the game when we played you - mind you, that was a few more years ago than I'd care to remember! ;-) Enjoy the game guys, I'm pretty sure you'll be further up the table by the time we play again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turbored Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Dunno about this paying people to watch but most games there will be tickets for sale for about a tenner through a local paper promo. I work up Derby and our company gets regular mail shots from them offering tickets for £10-15 . I have taken up the offer on numerous occasions but tomorrow I will be with fellow reds and hoping to go into work with a nice smug grin Wednesday morning.

'Orns Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 I can't bring myself to dislike Derby, never quite got Forest. Went out with a Notts girl when I was younger, all her family were Forest, so I used to go to Derby with her brother in law whenever I got the chance just to wind her lot up. And it worked As for their forum, I remember a discussion on here years ago when some described Shrewsbury, Gillingham, Chesterfield etc as 'footballing backwaters', hate that. Unless we're talking about the Gash, then it's fine. I'm not surprised they think they'll win, we were the same last year Slightly off topic - but the discussion about bringing back the Robin on the other thread, Derby have got a proper badge.
