Utter shite

How dare you say that!!!
Thought CJ was quality, Carey looked absolutely brilliant tonight.
A thorough team performance, we were so unlucky with those long balls over the top. If it wasn't for their pesky defenders cutting them out all the time we'd have pissed it!!
Just unlucky, trust the process 😉

CJ quality ?? Are you joking? His ball control is awful

Yes, I am ** joking.
Every player apart from Jimmy was gash tonight.
I was cured after the Orient game and gave myself a bit of time off.
Had the chance to go tonight and IMO sod all has changed.
I hope Blackpool do well this season, I always want them to do well but I can't see better than mid table with performances like that.
 
Utter shyte is what you're writing.
Classic case of emotional incontinence stinking AVFTT out.

They were a good team and will be right in the mix cone next spring.

The header off the bar and we right in it .Team committed to go for it and with that comes the risk of the counter attack - fine margins and tonight it didn't work out

"Piss Critchley" ffs - 2 wins and you'll have your cock out for the boys
 
Didn't think it was as bad as some are saying. The problem is we are so slow when in possession and the opposition have plenty of time to get organised. Casey and hubby were good but Connolly I'm afraid was poor. When he's faced with a one on one he either loses it or fouls their player. Can't fault the effort of the players tonight. They j7st faced a team who were clinical when given a chance. We go again on Saturday.

Disagree - mid table with dull safe football being played along the way based on the games played so far
 
The first half was pathetic. Sideways passing with no idea how to break Derby down. Dembele looked like a school kid running around chasing shadows. The only bright spark was the fact we went in at 0-0.

Second half was a bit better going forward but defensively all over the shop. Connolly for the second goal was how not to defend. Derby weren't even that good, they just found it so easy to soak up the pressure and pick us off.

There is nothing from the bench. Lavery and Kouassi were never going to change things. CJ was our only hope and completely reliant on him to make things happen.

The formation doesn't help but the players are just so average. Not enough quality, match winners or players who can drive the ball forward and create space for others. The fans groaning every time the ball went backwards summed it up. The atmosphere was flat, it was just boring.

Jim was getting rinsed for the first 30 mins… punch drunk
 
It wasn’t that bad.It’s a recurring story though,Derby did their preparation and set up behind the ball it just so happened they were also good on the break too.We still can’t break this approach down and teams are getting wise to it and will use it more and more.We move the ball too slowly.Critchley needs to switch things up if we are to start dealing with this every other week.
 
I think Critchley over anylises the oposition rather than play our best team.
Why change a winning team.
Pre game I thought dembele playing we must be trying to play on the floor with pace and forward passing. How wrong was I. Derby won nearly every long ball.
My question to Critchley is does he have a plan B or Plan C.
 
Lots of meaningless possession with very little end product. The passing was ponderous and not incisive, it was frustrating to watch. There was a 5 min spell where we upped the tempo of passing and we looked better for it.

Now I'm sure Critchley has more coaching badges than a Russian General has medals but is he guilty of over confidence in his coaching credentials. Lets face it we're not Man City or Arsenal where we keep the ball for 50 passes and move teams about to create an opening for a Haaland type are we!

Again I'll bow to his greater football knowledge but what was the thought process in constantly knocking a long diagonal on to our "target" man Dale in the 2nd half? Did he win one single duel or did the ball ever beat the fullback?

Are you not entertained......nope, frustrated and ever so slightly bored tbh.

I'm sure we'll win more than we lose but thats about the extent of my aspirations after tonight.
 
If you want to move the ball quicker you have to have more players who can do that especially in midfield . The fact is we lack 2/3 players who have that necessary quality. We are a good defensive team but in transition we are always looking to make that pass and therefore lack a killer instinct.
 
Be honest folks. It was shite.

Less shite that earlier in the season but still absolute shite.

We are a mid table team. And I'd hazard a guess lower middle half. There is zero flair. No spark.

And weak as a granny's bladder at the back.
 
There were some bad choices made by Critchley. Connolly and Carey shouldn't have started but as they did then they should have been subbed at half time.
Dembele had a good ten minutes leading up to his substitution and was then subbed which was bizarre.
Rhodes is much better in a front two something we already new but Critchley had forgotten.
But it wasn't utter shite.

Wasn't utter shite, just shite.
 
Knew we were going to lose, the atmosphere was just so flat. Our fans performed as poorly as the players and our catalogue of songs is ** embarrassing. We also need to move away fans near the North, the Derby fans were constantly looking for a reaction, some banter from the fans in the South but the two old men and couple of children weren't playing ball.

Agree there were some bad choices by critch, but my problem is, he's making the same bad choices game after game, and leaving changes until we were 2down is just another bad choice, don't get his selections, don't get his tactics,
