In fairness to him, we were 1 - 4 - 2 in the champ after 7 games, so his Rangers side had more points that we did at that stage - i think thats fairly comparable (given we're a newly relegated side spending tens of millions on our pick of players)....

If we are mid table, it can only be down to the manger frankly. Our squad is far better on paper than most other teams. Derby were in league 1 18months ago.

Imagine being Jelert and being kept out the side by manning. He is levels ahead of him.

Derby should have been winning whilst he was on in fairness... macca only reason we drew.

Shit i'm afraid. Macca the only reason we are getting any points. At what point do we say "the table doesn't lie". Reality is that we should be doing a lot better than this.

Schoolboy defending from wood there, Macca saves the day.

Downs is struggling - no confidence or aggression against the ball. He's killing us in an attacking sense.

Derby are tired now, time to go for the jugular with some fresh attacking legs..

Why does fellows not take our corners?

Ball doesn't stick at all with Downs at the focal point. A bit like playing with 10men.

AA gas to do better with that...

Woods is fouled there - attacker pulls him forwards so he can't challenge for the header... So shit linesman, shit ref.

Finding it harder and harder to listen to blackmore's commentary these days. He doesn't have a clue what's going on on the pitch, and his opinions on players/referees actions are just nonsense. He's also overly critical on some players in line with his own opinion - seeking to make comparisons all the time and always find something to have a moan about on certain players. Needs to just pipe down, watch the game, and provide a commentary ffs. Paired with the fact that he likes to act lie hes a mouth piece for the fans (but actually just spouts the club line), and he's just bloody irritating.

Hamstring for stewart? Holidng his leg after that header?

What a save by macca - as good as a goal that one.

Honestly guys, the championship beligum-ing has begun.

Derbies GK kit is very similar? 🤔

No presser for this one?

Most obnoxious manager we've ever had?

He did say he was fit tbf...

FML. We are 4 points of 2nd with 38 games to play. Stoke are 2nd, they won't finish 2nd. Which means we're at most 3 points off a potential 2nd place rival, so 1 game... Saints fans - "automatics are done" 😄😄😄

Love this ref. Macca got lucky there. Needs to be stronger than that.

Unlucky to be behind, even without the penalty... But FFS Armstrong. What was that?!?! Just isn't working for us at the moment 🤦

It would take some in the championship to have written off play offs by news years. It really would.

Actually thought he was a pretty decent ref. Have done both times we've had him this season.
