    who would you have had AA in for?

    I think if Rigg drops out it will be for Mayenda

    I actually believe at this moment in time, Mayenda is better as an impact sub....

    I would have brought AA in for Rigg and moved ELF central. I think we'll need creativity this evening and I reckon that if AA and ELF were to click it would be a hell of a lot for most champ teams to cope with. Suspect I won't get to find out if I'm right now, though.

    I think I’d agree. Would like to see Le Fee central and Rigg has just came back from an injury, don’t want him starting every game

    says more about the strength and depth we’ve built more than his inability to impact

    Derby fans worrying that we've sold out our 2600 allocation when both Sheffield clubs, etc, were given 3300.

    They're selling home section tickets, on the day, and think there'll be some Sunderland going in.

    There will be, some of the East Midland lads were in there last time we played.

    Derby don't seem to want us having too much noisy support tonight.

    When Sunderland have people back we'll be a nightmare to contain ...

    ... and when they start to tire we'll have more attackers to throw at them from the bench.

    Adams is decent but came off a comfortable second best in that game.

    Laughed out loud yesterday on the dog walk listening to the 2nd tier podcast.

    They were talking about Derbys plight after the weekends game and then said “let’s have a look who Derby have midweek …. Sh!t!”

    and that was that :emoticon-0102-bigsm:emoticon-0102-bigsm:emoticon-0102-bigsm
