Another goal from.nothing, poor defending and the bobbling shot just bounces in..
Honestly, its just so poor. And yet another set piece goal.
But why was it a FK to Derby in the first place. They were both at each other off the ball. Drop ball restart surely.
Exactly and a little before that Brewster had been grabbing Iorfas nuts while holding him off from tackling so I can understand why he might feel a bit aggrieved.

There is only one stat we need to look at, 2 shots, none on target. Makes no difference what we do, we cannot operate in the final third, neither getting crosses in or getting on the end of the ones we do get it. Too many of this group have given up, and the ones that haven't can't make enough difference. Going to be a long season!!

Derby are crap and we've handed a result that flatters them.
The Watford performance was far better. You can see some players are tired though the bigger issue will always be that the majority of them arent capable of playing football, at most levels.
Shot on target!!!

I've had enough. I'm having my dinner ("tea" to most of you).

The ball distribution is exceptionally poor

Much as I respect HP for taking up the job in dire circumstances the new owners when they arrive need to make some changes to coaching and players to both lift the existing players and more importantly the crowd.
No-one is going to keep showing up for 3+ losses every home game. We need to start playing the younger fringe players the second half of the season to see if they are up to performing in L1.
And ffs why bother leaving it to only 5 mins left and being 0-3 down before then making more subs ?
Bizarre !!

I agree to a point. The timing of the new owners is crucial for us but at the same time bringing in a new manager with no ability to change anything will just see him slated by the fans the same way HP is. There needs to be a change but it needs to be once we are relegated and done purely for the purposes of rebuilding from League one.
