Yuri having an absolute blinder.

What a tidy finish!!!

I like this group of players Ricky. The sum of the parts and all that. The past is the past. I cant judge this team on previous squads. Time will tell.

Ok Charlie have it your way. The recruitment team are doing well. Those that recruited them are complete balloons. I can't fix stupid sorry. Ring someone else.

The weak excuses don't wash, as they are a lie. Derby do not have a better strategy, structure or longer term.vision at all. There is nothing long term about Cambridge away. He obviously doesn't think we are good enough to get in the play offs. Which is ideal motivation for our squad.

Well said, pretty obvious really but not what folk wish to hear. Extrapolated, this means the owners have recruited well with the recruitment team. Who in turn have recruited well with coaches and players. Someone recruited Eustace who did very well. Someone recruited a squad capable so far of hitting the play offs all season. Hard work never hurt anyone and we for sure have a hardworking group we can justifiably be proud of. There is a maturity behind this team that speaks volumes. No bitching, in fighting, or drama. Solid professionals giving their all week in week out. Less money means greater diligence, research and consideration. Look at how much we wasted in the parachute years on thart horrible bunch of mercenaries. Give me this group anyday.

Very few clubs can overcome the loss of its best players. That includes teams in the Premier League. That's why it is imperative to have a little luck along the way. Whilst injuries, loss of form and suspensions are inevitable, we struggle to compete with the parachute clubs who have circa forty million more income than us. Its a huge disparity. Look who are running away with the league. Two parachute clubs, Sunderland and Leeds. It's a struggle for everyone else. The outlier is Luton who have somehow managed to completely implode whilst waxing big money.

We have been in and around the play offs all season. I see no reason for that to stop. Part of me feels thar the manager leaving will help refocus and energise. Good things often come from adversity. I also feel its time the players went up a gear. We have often been poor going forward and we need goals from our strikers and attacking midfielders.

No alatheia there is no new narrative as there is only me irritated with the manner of his departure. Eustace was texting a million clubs whilst preaching unity and I don't think that is very classy. Based on what I'm reading its inevitable we will now fall down the league as apparently its all Eustaces doing that sees us in the play off places. We are not a shit show, far from it, we are in.5th. There are 19 clubs worse off than us this season.

Cool. You have been consistent with your views for a decade. I'd expect nothing less. But.....PNE, Hull, West Brom, Coventry, Derby. What the fucks he playing at? All with an immaculate longer term vision and structure than Rovers? All closer to home?Hull are bottom three? As are Derby? It's money, not visions or strategy or opportunity. I'll leave it there. You all know my thoughts. Glad he's gone, he is one sneaky bastard.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Fucking dynamite. Don't forget the vision John. I hope they get 7.

Eustace is a lying, greedy twat who has manufactured his exit for a longer contract and pay rise. Leaving a lot of honest lads and a supportive fanbase in the lurch. There is clearly no better opportunity at Derby as well you know. I'm not fishing at all. This site wide herd mentality of blaming our recruitment department, executives and owners for his snidey behaviours is not only boring but wrong on a number of levels.

Evening Gav. Glad your back posting more often. Can you remember a Rovers manager behaving so disgracefully and getting let off so lightly?

Possibly exiled. But they dont try and drum loyalty, family and togetherness down our throats constantly.

Exactly. Bullshitting twat. Eustace has hoodwinked many on here and is currently beyond reproach.

Yes in enjoying it. Sorry if its spoiling your night. Tight little ground at QPR. Throwback stadium. I like their forward line. Derby haven't come from behind to win all season.

2 - 0 QPR. What a shame.

150+ applications for what you say is a basket case of a club that everyone wants to.leave.

A lot of out of work football folk! Still one of the top 30 jobs in the UK pyramid.

Is that right? 150+ applications?

I voted for Allardyce in the forum vote. Warnock would also suffice. I also suggested a Travis Tronstad axis. In also saying the four coaches could take over for me I'm actually being very consistent. We don't have stand out star players. We do have great unity. I wish to preserve that. I feel thats our strength and our best chance of success this year. The four options above wouldnt affect that. I can't think of any other managerial options that wouldn't disrupt our harmony. So im ok with any of the above. I dont care how much extra Eustdce is earning. You still don't get it to you? I would simply just respect him more if he said 'I've been offered a longer contract, on more money and I'm going to leave for those reasons'. Few could argue with that.

I wrote Gueye off after PNE away. Ohashi started and hardly got a kick as we humped balls up to him. We barely threatened PNE even though they were down to ten. We were calling for Gueye to come on and I was glad when he did. Two pathetic scuffed shots later, plus a failure to hold up play or win any headers and I'd totally had enough of him. We got worse when he came on and PNE finished the stronger. It was weird really, as I genuinely gave up on the lad there and then. I've never done that before. I think it was the realisation that we were going to struggle for goals all year. I'm not embarrassed to say I misjudged him. He must have worked very hard this last three months. He's still a long way off what we ultimately need, but certainly heading in the right direction. Every credit to the lad.

Gosh you are melodramatic! Drown? We aren't going to suddenly collapse now Eustace has nipped to the bank. We are already three from three without him. And be warned. Don't let your love in extend to crediting Eustace with wins, when he isnt here any longer! And yes no new manager as yet. But I'm not concerned in the slightest. Let the four lads carry on for me. Team spirit and harmony, loyalty and togetherness is our new strapline. Courtesy of our dearly departed manager as he makes his way To Hull, oh I mean Coventry, my mistake West Brom, doh silly me PNE, gosh me and my memory Derby County. The standard bearers of how to run a football club.

Yes just Eustace Rev. We will go into freefall now pal won't we?

What are you on about? Hull are 3rd bottom. They have never won anything of note in their entire history. At least West Brom, Derby and PNE have some history. Albeit a long time ago.
