Match Day Thread Derby County v Watford

Travelling Horns are making all the noise.

 

Nasty clash of heads gives Watford the chance to get their breathe back.

 

6 added minutes

 

6 mins added on....

 

Cathcart gets a yellow card, all pressure from Derby.

 

Well well well.

If Ipswich was one point lost, this was one point won, esspecially down to ten men.

I´d rather be getting 3 points mind, but given the circumstances of ten men for a half.

Boro has even more importance now....

 

Full Time: 2-2

That is a huge point seeing as we had to play for the second half with ten men.

 

Massive games coming up and great support shaping up. Boro is sold out and we have nearly sold out Millwall and Brighton - these have the potential to be games that go down in our history.

 

A good result.

And another plus was the size of the funbags on the BeIN presenter.

 

Can you believe that people left the ground before the end of that game?

 

Guedioura man of the match for me. He ran himself into the ground.

 

Agree Guedioura was outstanding - but not over impressed with us today - far too fragile at the back and Derby must be kicking themselves. Nevertheless a great point considering'

 

You could see how disappointed the Derby players were at the end of the game. This was a big chance for them to catch up again after their bad run, but they are still five points behind Watford.

 

Two points lost for Derby and we left with a point we probably did not deserve - will have to play better against Middlesbrough - Tom Ince was finding too much room today. Guedioura apart I thought we were a bit below par.

Hope Vydra is OK - thought he took a knock just before half time.

 

I watched on Sky. The commentary seemed all about derby - how important for them blah blah blah.
Am I paranoid, are they all out to stop little WFC ?
Separately, have no probs with the pen - Motta had no excuse - but the sending off - bizarre. Why does this happen ?
That said, what a brave performance. Our team has bottle and belief. I reckon we are favourites now !!!
COYH

 

I agree about the commentary.
Wonder if we will appeal the red.
I enjoyed the game though.

 

the result was good the ref was as good as we get

 

He's no friend of ours and never has been. From our corner it looked like Jake got the ball. Comment and replays and text messages suggest otherwise. Fair enough. Red card? I suggest we appeal. PDQ. We had cover. We got nothing again. Twice, once memorably, we had advantage on the break and unfriendly pulled it back when we had a clear advantage to attack. Nor was he even handed with the cautions. Vic, I am telling you now as an experienced referee, he was not even handed and yet again we got bog all. We deserved better.
Guadioura (apologises for my spelling) was immense tonight. A sensational performance.

 

Of course it's two points lost for Derby, they were playing 10 for 45 minutes. Just got back, couldn't disagree more. We absolutely deserved that point in the end. With 11 v 11 we would have won. We were the better team. With 10 we got a point. Well played everyone and well done to the travelling 'orns. Proud of my team.

No pleasing some people
