One of the top 10 seasons in our history?! Bit of a stretch that. I know it’s opinions but the football we play is so tedious, not sure how this can be up with some of the best ever…

How many times in our history have we been 6th in the second tier or above going into new year?

Whether you find it boring is your opinion.

League placing is tangible. There aren't too many times in our history that we've been where we currently are or better, and all you lot can do is ****ing whine about it.

We were 4 points off 6th under McCann at Christmas the season we got relegated, were you saying at that time it was in our top 10 best seasons ever?

Right, so how many times have we been at or above 7th in the second tier in feb (or even 6th on new years day if that's easier for you) in our history?

And yes, up until Xmas the McCann season probably would have been probably top 12 season if we hadn't nosedived like a lemming of a cliff and finished bottom .

You think that's happening under Rosenior, do you?

Quite clearly I haven’t said that have I, or you too drunk to read things correctly? I just wonder how you work out best seasons ever.

Not wanting to defend McCann but we all know he was only half the story that season. If Rosenior had his only two decent players sold without adequate replacements, how would he have faired?

There's been a distinct absence of any praise whatsoever, and in the context of one of probably the 10 best seasons so far since 1904 that's unreasonable in my opinion.

And if I think the sum of your posts on the subject are unbalanced or wilfully ignorant in the context of the season and stage in the clubs development then I'll continue to call that out.

It's called debate.

There was praise for the great performance against Cardiff, with hope it marked some sort of turning point in how we play. It didn't.
There was praise for the against the odds win away at Sunderland.
There was praise for the first 20 minutes against Millwall.
Inspite of our league position there hasn't been that much to dish out praise for, in recent months other than odd flashes of individual brilliance from some talented players.
As HT2 rightly says, no issue with praising Rosenior when it's deserved, just as there should be no issue calling out poor performances and boring slow disjointed predictable etc football

At this stage in the season when have we been higher in the league?

I'm saying about 10 in our history.

Yet all you can do is moan about it.

I don't think we'd have just thrown to towel in and got relegated bottom, as happened under McCann.

I'm not defending poor performances though, am I?

I'm criticising preconceived bias and using every loss as an excuse for a pile on.

But perspective dictates there's only really been 4 or 5 of them all season. Not that you'd know it from this place.

I don't think anyone would have got a tune out of that lot under those circumstances personally, except for maybe an old timer like a Warnock

Well 'someone' might have got a tune out of his younger players like 'someone' had to and got enough points to stay up in dire circumstances despite carrying a grannyshagger the club couldn't afford to sack at the same time.

How many points would Derby have had again if they didn't get the points deduction and how many did we get that season?

No, I don't think we'd have capitulated like under McCann under Rosenior after losing 2 wingers.

I never said you were!!
You said there's 'a distinct absence of any praise". Your exact words. Obviously bollocks.
