Did Gardner-Hickman receive his yellow after yet another misplaced Miller pass or is my memory deceiving me? Same as Tronstad on Tuesday... -

Yeah, our run of bad form usually kicks in about this time of the season. What's up with Tavares? Unbelievable that he didn't made the bench today if he's not out with injury (which is bad in itself). -

Crazy that they haven't released the anniversary kit. Bonkers. Mad. -

Russell Martin is a terrible manager, I'd almost take Steve Kean back over him. -

Allardyce managed us in a period when the Walker trust wanted rid and injected the mandatory £5m per year or whatever it was. I thought he assembled a good squad and we had a team where there was room for some great individuals as well. Eustace probably actually had worse support, but we went from being a team comfortable in possession to 'deer in headlights once we received the ball' overnight. Broughton and JDT gave me some hope that we might turn this around, but then we were back to being Rovers again... -

Kendall was before my time. I like Allardyce, top coach who had a lot of modern ideas when it came to nutrition, stats etc. -

Total mis-management to play Wharton as much as we have since he's come back. But squad is so thin it's scary. -

We have played some decent football this season to be fair, but a bit like under Eustace and others before him, there are matches we don't show up for. We were missing some huge bodies in the team today but thought Ismael got it all wrong and didn't adjust at all. Surprised he pulled Gardner-Hickmann at half-time, who was really poor but was still miles better than Henriksson and Morishita. Our other bench players don't look ready, Gueye looks unfit and should play some U21's probably. -

I don't lose any sleep over him, but certainly wanted to send him back to Derby with a big loss in the bag. Thankful for the work he did for us, but watching his style of football hurt my eyes at times. Outclassed by Plymouth at home stands out as one bad memory. Some hurtful moments under Ismael too, that's for sure. -

The top 6 team has been totally depleted. Eustace kept us up with that miracle (and undeserved) win at Leeds and against Leicester on the final day who were already champions and had nothing to play for. I'm not singing Ismael's praises, but I am entitled to my own opinion about Eustace and that he's a very ordinary manager. -

Eustace's win percentage here: 34,62% Ismael's win percentage here: 34,62% Not updated after this match. Don't know what Ismael was on about today with how he set the team up. Shocking, Morishita and Henriksson ran around looking completely lost. Gardner-Hickman spraying passes anywhere but to a teammate and let Derby control the game from the get-go. -

It wasn't. It was my personal opinion of Eustace and his style of football. Has nothing to do with Ismael. -

Or a Miller pass. Not a very good player at all unfortunately. -

Anticlimatic Set us up totally wrong for this one with one natural CM. Tronstad a big miss. Gueye is not a footballer. -

I think if Alebiosu gets called up to AFCON then we'll shift more of our attacking focus over to the left and play Miller at RWB. The problem right now is with Carter out, we will struggle to play three at the back unless we recall O'Riordan. We shouldn't be dreaming of the play-offs, but with 3 points against Ipswich and our 'luck balance' on neutral, we would've been darn close at this point. Hope the players step up to the occasion tomorrow, it's a big game and absolutely vital to send Eustace back with zero points. -

It's a one off shirt. Our 125 year anniversary shirt was blue and white halves, I don't see the problem in going all white if that was how our history started. As for the badge, I won't get into that one 😄 -

He's been good all season but usually he breaks down once he peaks, but he seldom plays the full 90 and has healthy competition for his place in de Neve now. Was surprised when he got benched, but his issues with his end product are still ongoing 🙂 -

It'll be around £120+ total to get one shipped over here.
