Derby County 2 - 0 Coventry City

DERBY COUNTY v COVENTRY CITY Championship #37

1945 11th March 2025, Pride Park Stadium, Derby

One swallow doth not make a summer but I did allow my self to revel in a warm glow on Saturday night enhanced by a very palatable 16 year old Irish - whiskey that is. And why not? post Christmas has been crap.

I'm not going to dwell on last Saturday - it was very satisfying but the number of injuries and dearth of players to choose from means that the every game is going to be tense.

Coventry come to us nicely placed in a play-off positions after a 3-2 v Stoke and are no push overs. They do like their luck though after scoring the winner in the 8th minute of added time after being 2-0 up. And of course, the return of our alumni - Frank Lampard.

At least we have broken the losing hoodoo, trouble is we have to win again....

We live in hope, we still believe but do we enjoy, yes I did last Saturday

Team: Zetterström (GK), Nyambe, Phillips, Clarke, Forsyth, Elder, Adams (C), Armstrong, Thompson, Harness, Yates

Subs: Vickers (GK), Wilson, Rooney, Barkhuizen, Goudmijn, Hendrick, Jackson, Eames, Agbawodikeizu

Should we stick with an European list of transfer targets hope we look at some of Bodø / Glimt's players.
