Derby County 3 - 0 Blackburn Rovers

Pride Park
Derby

On a Sunday!!

8 March 2020
1500

Big crowd expected at Pride Park as all the fans who attend the FA fixture on Thursday will return on Sunday to show loyalty to DCFC.

Expectations are rumbling again as the Mighty Rams show allbeit brief glimpses of what they can do and never quite produce .....

Tom Lawrence is a doubt which will be a blow as he has being showing a consistency of good performances which will be sorely missed. Would that have been said 3 months ago? Andre Wisdom could return after having a cold on Thursday but will George Who make a second appearance?

We have a poor record against Blackburn and have not beaten them in the last five - not scoring in four of them. Blackburn win this, then it's three on the trot for them. Tony Mowbray has only lost once again Derby County since we won against him in 2007.

Intriguing times ahead, very enjoyable.

Team news from Ang on the red button.

5 pts I make it

Yeah but goal difference usually counts for a point 👍🏼

I reckon no chance. I thought Brizzle away was the key fixture. We had just beaten Swansea away and had we won two away on the bounce we might have had a chance of going on a charge. Instead we played very well but conceded three poor goals. Luton and QPR two more where soft goals cost us games we should have won. We’re playing some very good stuff now but there isn’t a solid enough backbone in defence and goalkeeper to back it up.

Not what you typed Vidal..

But had typed a response to Rev and it somehow managed to delete itself suffice to say we still have a huge say in who plays who come the end of the season and imagine us still being involved.

I think so too - results throughout the whole season show how unpredictable this league is

There are still 12 teams I reckon who could make the playoffs - that’s how crazy this league is

And it’s the team that usually puts a good run together in the last 6-8 games, that sneak into the playoffs that will probably go on and win in

We've scored more goal than those noisy lot up the road now as well.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Hmmmm - you’ve let in more too I should imagine...

Keep trying Scouse

Keep trying for what Rev, we have scored more goals than Forest, I didn't make any other claim?

Have you been having arithmetic tuition from Strett?

No problem Scouse....I suppose I was just highlighting, that the fact you’ve scored more goals than us, means absolutely nothing.. especially if you let in more and therefore have less points - because at the end of the day, that’s the all important statistic

But yeah, you’ve scored more than us

Think, had Waghorn converted those two penalties we would only be one point away from the play offs. Had Waghorn converted some of his one to ones this season we would probably be challenging for automatics. Why can't he learn just to lift the ball a bit when he shoots in a one to one situation. I can't fault his work rate or his commitment but he has been extremely profligate with his chances this season.

Because he would be playing in the Premiership Spart and maybe getting as many starts (and goals) as Vydra?

Someone tell Ramdini it was Blackburn we were playing and not Boro.
