Match Day Thread Derby County FC v Sunderland AFC – Tuesday 21st January 2025 - KO 19:45

Aye that’s it. Hard to see from the replay I’ve got whether his arm moved but can’t have been half a yard away as the player knocked it. I guess it did result in a goal off an arm but didn’t look intentional.

 

Would be brilliant

 

I’m not gonna keep repeating myself like

 

They should just give up and let us have Morris and Doughty for gratis.

 

Just not even possible to comprehend. Can not just randomly think this offside 20 seconds after the fact with no video replay. It's literally like they have seen derby players react and change their on field decision!

 

yep they were our best 3. I’d actually probably give the edge to Neil myself

 

I’m sure it’s been answered a million times so apologies but when are our left wingers back?

 

couple of weeks he said today.

 

Not sure. If the derby player wasn't in their ear I don't think it'd reserved. That has a whiff of corruption.

 

Patto for me. Mephs was great, real leadership shown.

 

The ball was hammered at him anyway, no way was it hand ball.

Thankfully it didn't cost us so we move on with another 3 points in the bag. Can add it to the ever growing list of ridiculous decisions we have seen over the years.

 

I think Patterson deserves a nod as well

I'd say Neil was better than jobe but I loved Jobe's performance in the 1st half. Mepham was just Mepham again... class. Thought o9 played his part as well, another very good performance from him

 

**** decision making but not corruption. Corruption suggests they wanted Derby to win / draw and I think that’s a bit far fetched personally. They were just ****. And if the Derby player did influence then they are weak and ****.

 

How good was that turn by Jobe in the first half btw, when he got fouled. ****ing rolls Royce

 

I know a few don’t agree but I really like the 442. I thought when we switched the shape we ended up giving them all of the momentum. I really like the front two we have

 

We’ve done so well to stay in touch without that left side mind. Mundle was probably our best player over the first ten games

 

I like Isidor and Mayenda up top together but we need to do it when Rigg isn’t right wing. He just didn’t get into the game at all. Should have been Roberts out there.

 

O'Nien for me ... great in defence and brought the ball out 40 yards time after time.

Mepham does the first part but not the second.

 

Was comfortably man of the match for me...up until Patterson saved our blushes a few times during that second half barrage.

 

West Brom in 7th are only 2 points closer to us than they are to relegation.

that’s how clear we are.

and I’ve booked a ****ing cruise during the playoff final, so we need to do it autos
