After the Pompey result, I fancied us to get summat at Derby and I’m still hopeful of at least a point, but the loss of Bod and the slow introduction to life at BWFC of Nlundulu Randell and Shoretire might make things a little tougher for us
Add to that, Barkhuizen, Mendez-Lang, McGoldrick and Hourihane, all quality players that can win a game on their own, we’ve got a really tough outing and one I’d be pleased to come away with a point at the very least
COYWM to be the best, we got to beat the best

Never won at Pride Park in the league our last win in the league at there place September 1981 at the baseball ground so yes I will take a draw, but I have this horrible feeling that they will put us back in our place so very sorry 0-3 defeat God I really hope I’m wrong as my mate will really have a good old laugh at my expense. Onwards and upwards COYWM

The most difficult and last match in our January set of tough games.
We have competed well against Plymouth, Barnsley, Portsmouth and, of course, Derby so far so let’s hope this one turns out well.
We have a rotten record away to Derby.
I have actually seen us win both of the league cup games away to them – Willie Morgan’s winner after coming back from 1-0 down and Michael Johansen’s last minute winner.
Both great performances.
But I have also seen Simon Coleman’s leg break in defeat plus us being 4-0 down at half time in our early premiership days and many other poor results there.
Time for a win!
Other than Bodvarsson, I expect the side to be what it has been recently with, hopefully, Nlundulu upfront – please not Kachunga.
If the defence can keep up this remarkable tightness, I can hope for a goal from Charles and a 1-0 win.

I may be being somewhat over optimistic here but I think we’ll stuff Derby today. I haven’t rated them all season despite their position and believe we’re a much better team and improving all the time. It is of course a shame about Bod but I’ve every confidence in Dan stepping up for him alongside Dion and I’m really excited to see Shola come on to display his talents. The whole team just seems to be getting better all the time and finally Evatt seems to see the value of keeping a settled side. We should have beaten Derby here and also Plymouth, we were better than both of them so I have no fears about going to Pride Park. They’re on a good run but they must lose some time so let’s hope it’s today. Derby 0 Wanderers 2.

Was going to say one weekend Aimson and Toal will have off days and will Santos and Jones be rushed back.
Well Aimson has just put the ball in the net for Derby. I for one hope he gets the same chances as Santos and doesn't get ousted bit let's see how he performs when things aren't great.
Hate this ground/baseball ground. Up there with Craven cottage and Fratton Park as grounds we should just forget about getting anything.

Rams really do have their tails up here
Need to get tighter to them especially against that Mendez Lang and Barkhusen
Come on BOLTON ⚽️⚽️⚽️

Dapo who???
Loving this Nlundulu kid.
We have a fair amount of corners but yet again, doing zilch with them
This has to be improved
We are still in this game and if can we keep it to 1-0 until the last 10 mins, we could spring a surprise
Actually think now that it WAS a Mendez Lang goal not Aimson OG
All Derby’s best attacks are on their right and they are looking that way spraying out 30 yard passes to that area, we must get closer to them or else!!!

Just been corrected. Not that it really matters. Let's hope we show some grit and get something out of this |

Not good enough.
Derby are charging down their right and slinging crosses in, one of which created the goal and another where Barkhuisen should have scored with a header.
Williams at left back gave the ball away 3 times in the first 10 minutes and he is leaving loads of space for Derby to attack down their right.
Our corners are yet again awful.
We are neat in our play but not get anywhere near to creating a chance.

We’ve given them a game (of low quality) but we are still in this
Derby attack v ours, one goal so far suggests that they are better attacking than we are but that’s only because we’ve caused them no harm at all. Is Dion even playing?? And don’t mention corners as we are bloody awful at them
COYWM
Come on Evatt.
Nothing to fear with these at all but we must make them scared at the back, which we have so far not done

4 corners and yet we still haven’t scored from 1 we seem to be struggling to get anything going forward with any real threat to them but 45 to go to get back into the game onwards and upwards COYWM

Quick observation on Randell Williams, he doesn’t like chasing the ball back and to be beaten by ‘veteran’ Mendez Lang like he was either shows laziness, or lacking fitness

Terrible
Terrible
Terrible
2-0
Piss poor defending, no shape, no tight marking, easy finish
That’s why Paul Warne gets promoted
That’s why Derby are better than we are
Dion stays in and Nlundulu goes off for Kachunga …. You couldn’t write this!!!!! (I just did)

Evatt and Football Ventures need to splash the cash on a striker, we need goals and we don’t have any in the front men we have, including the ultra lightweight Dion
