So not happening.  JE's first win.  Pears spills a shot for a tap in TWICE.

Is it acceptable to crack open a nice cold cider for this one given the weather?

Brandon Powell under 21 midfielder on the bench. The new coach has spotted something there. Interesting.

I hope he’s spotted he’s a Left Back

You can have a sip every time Dolan spins 360 degrees and loses the ball.

The bottle will be drunk after 5 minutes

He’ll be well drunk before the break!

Hard to be confident about this if you look at the form table :

Derby last 8 at Home   W  2  D  1  L  5    F 6  A 7  -1

Rov     last 8  Away       W  2  D  1  L  5    F 6  A 10  -4

Plus they are desperate for the points, i'm not sure we are.

Genuinely recognise 1 or 2 of that Derby team, whereas (barring Pears) we have a strong side out.

Don't give them anything early and we should win this quite comfortably.

Also, no Nyambe, thankfully.

[Bethnal]

That’s the lineup I’d have picked, but - ironically - that fills me with no extra confidence, as it’s become clear this season that I don’t know as much about football as I thought I did.

Despite being a general fan of Cantwell, I’m glad he’s not starting today, as we need to be at it early and he doesn’t instigate early on. Nothing better than getting an early one against a side that will have very little belief at the minute. Getting two and there’s every chance they crumble.

I do wonder how many defeats in the bounce Eustace will be allowed before the crowd eventually turns. They’ve not looked too bad apart from the QPR game, but what little belief there is will be fragile and Eustace is currently experiencing a new manager splat that could become terminal with a heavy defeat at some point. Hopefully that’s today.

That away shirt is gastly. Who came up with pink? Waggot? Well ta-de-da

[doctorryan]

I hate this fucking pink.

[duckson]

Dont bottle it FFS!

[Tugay-is-God]

Of fucking course

[duckson]

Yea bottled it.

[Bethnal]

Everything I said earlier about getting an early one also applies to us, so we know how this is going

[neophox]

Pears you bellend

[G Somerset Rover]

Jesus fucking Christ. Of all the fucking gifts to give a team so down on their luck.

That'll be game over. 

[SpaceBarSlam]

FFS. They're going to have their heads up now and JE is the master of defending a 1-0 lead. 

[Ferrit]

Im so fucking sick of Pears, he's absolutely wank.

[den9112]

Pears punching thin air....

 

[duckson]

Toth cant be any worse than that crap.
