Kompany was a great footballer, Martin wasn't.

I don't agree with this point. The way things are going we are going to break Derby's record low points tally and who will want the manager who presided over that? Martin will not get a step up when we finally twig that he is ruining our club and get rid of him.

Apparently it's going to be fun 🙂

If his job really does rely on results why has he still got one? One point from nine games.

Also it doesn't work as shown by the results which is the clearest indicator.

On the flip side City could have score 4 or 5 with better composure - the sitters they missed were easier chances than ours'.

There will - we'll be told to trust the process and so it will go on, and on, and on until Russ is removed. He means well and clearly believes in his flawed process but we need to let him impose his vanity project on another club because he's doing untold damage to ours'.

Why wouldn't Pep sing our praises - he wants us to play the same way when City visit St Marys - he'd be daft to suggest we are playing the wrong way and should adopt a more suitable style.

When is the fun going to start Russ?

One of the dafter things Pep has come out with. He knows full well it is nonsense.

He's a very well paid football manager who knows how it works - with one point from twenty seven the press, pundits and fans are rightly going to question his position. If he doesn't like that he either needs to improve results or find another job.

In no way were we unlucky to lose against Forest. When quoting our own bad luck in games you also have to factor in the bad luck of our opponents.

But as we played most of the game in reverse gear they didn't need to.

Agree - having scored an early goal they were able to stroll through the game comfortably and were confident we'd not go hunting an equaliser. Had we scored they'd have gone up 3 or 4 gears. We didn't hold out against a rampaging, gung-ho City, we weren't so good defensively that they had no answers - we played a less than brave game and held a side that knew they needed to expend very little energy to take the points. Let's not kid ourselves.

That's bravery.

Yes, we were predicted to finish in the relegation spots but some of our fans expected more than one point at this stage after a reasonably easy run of games with some winnable ones. Doesn't make us knob heads, just means we have a different take on it to you which we are entitled to.

Gave Brentford a much harder game than we did even when down to 10 men.

It's another defeat. The rest is not relevant and matters not a jot.

City did the bare minimum and Russ was happy to let them do it.

A narrow defeat is the new win for Russell. Well done.

Why?

Propaganda football as opposed to proper football. It might be enough for some which is fair but I expect more from our manager and coaches.

Which is a big problem.

Two Leicester players gave away free kicks and were booked for shirt tugs far less obvious than the one on Tall Paul - I guess their shirt tugs had consequences even though they were both outside the penalty area. Taylor needs investigating.

Doubt it - not on the money he's earning.
