Who comes on… Cantwell? Woodrow? not great options, I must say

Yes, Dennis was one of the few signs of life

I expect Sanderson & Cozier-Duberry to sub today. Not that we have a lot of good options…

I will take any show of effort & fire in the belly

Yuki! Get in

We’re an absolute mess.

I’m not real excited about this; then I see we’re missing 8 guys. Not sure we would get all 3 points, with everyone healthy…

I’m afraid the poor showing at Swansea was the beginning of the end of our playoff chances this season. Just to get in the playoffs, would have been huge. A victory at Pride Park would go a long way in restoring some of that hope. If there was ever a “must win”- in terms practical, emotional, & psychological terms- this is it.

lol it took what, a minute?

Getting back to playoff places, is the impossible dream. Nice while it lasted.

Preston, shocking result

I approve of these sub’s

Duffy gonna help us with an og?

Elated that Carter is back, & Tronnie is available. Yuki needed on the pitch, imo. For me, this is Cantwell’s big chance. We need to see something from him.

I expected better today from Hyam, Brittain, Sanderson, Rebeiro, etc. I can’t see us climbing back to a playoff place now. Glaring weaknesses all over the place.

Yes, I admit my naïveté, supporting Lowe whole-heartedly. Poor tactics & players, today.

Wholesale changes at HT by Lowe are needed.

Meanwhile, Lewis Baker scores for Stoke at 46’. Nearly score at :29. nice player.

Bah

I think our best midfield started as subs. Lowe knows what he’s doing- I hope.

In lieu of hedges… Buckley, Dennis, Kargbo, heck, even JR-C

1-2, today. Gueye & a late one by Yuki. COYB!!!

I love it! Scoring multiple goals, getting clean sheets! Keep Lowe the rest of the season, why not!?

Dolan, well done, lad!!!

Ol‘ man Forshaw, I love ya!! I repent of my pre-game remarks, disparaging Forshaws capabilities 😆
