Pride Park Comes Before The Fall - Derby (A) 09/04/16

[TANGODANCER]

Mic man already predicting a loss and we haven't even kicked off yet. Right, that's a win then...heavy breathing on the spot and.....away we go. Tower going on about potatoes and veg and stuff but not heard Good for Wood yet.....ah, wait a sec, there it goes. Now we can kick off....

[CrazyHorse]

The fat lady has just taken to the stage....

The fat lady has just taken to the stage....

She's already gargled, spat out out the water and singing very loud!!

[twilight]

And why have we got bloody Derik at RB again, dear God

[CrazyHorse]

lol Rotherham are 1-0 up already.

[TANGODANCER]

Live to Pride with Anthony Axford then and Derby have a quick sally that goes into the stand via our defence. Now a goal kick us and....Wallop. Pratley gets a quick free kick for a foul. And....we lose it and Moxey has to bang it clear. Mic man saying we're keeping Derby at bay ( 5 mins gone)and then.......a break and Amos manages to scramble it clear for a corner. And....Ince lets it go out for our throw. Ince and Thorn getting the mentions, a few no scores and then here they come again. Andy Woolmer is the ref (who?) Amos wallops, Thorn, then Moxxey and it goes throught to the keeper. Derik nodss it out for a throw. Now, Wooler goes and....wins a corner. And Clough takes it and...cleared to Moxey. Clough and they come clear but give us a throw.

[TANGODANCER]

A Deryk throw, headed clear and the cross is caught. The Rams visit again and keep possession and....an effort goes nowhere then an Ince volley does the same. They try again and "set sail" says mic man. Possession period again and "we're holding firm"...well, for the minute (with 12 gone). Sounds like they're having all the play. Mic man impressed. They come again and...ref plays advantage...and back they come and......1-0

Super

[TANGODANCER]

Russell has a leather after a deflected pass and uphill is the name of the game already. Mic man sounding delirious with joy and Christie visits from right back and lashes one wide.

[CrazyHorse]

lol Rotherham are 2-0 up now.

[TANGODANCER]

Mic man almost talking the ball into our net again...but it goes wide. Right lads, let's get a grip and...we go, they clear and we have a bit of tip and tap. Woolery and Clough manage a corner between them and......and....we get another one as the keeper punches. A short corner finds us all asleep and is cleared. Deryk doing wel but they are stil at it. Pratley and Danns clear it...to Amos...a bit of drooling about Derby's quality from mic man. Rotheram two up against MK and Vela wins a free kick.

[TANGODANCER]

Here they come and win a free kick off Moxey?, no Vela and he gets a card. Christie and....Ince has a go before Danns has to give one away on the left. Ince? ....and...and....cleared but to them and......some to and fro before Pratley gives one away. Ince, Thorn......more possession and...more possesion and....Russel sends one just over as mic man collapses in delerious excitement...

[TANGODANCER]

Free kick us. Clough....and...and...we head it out for a goal kick. Now then, Axfords get a mention before Trotter sets off and gives it away. Again they come and win a corner. Smelling salts for mic man as they approach...and we clear and get a throw. I swear if they score again, he'll pass out with joy. Throw us now and...they get it back and win a free kick in the bargain. And.....a ping pong session of possession (outstanding, of course) before they surge forth like a Blackpool tide. Pratley gets booked and another free kick and........ Mic man screams it past a post.

[Worthy4England]

lol Rotherham are 2-0 up now.

Last 10 games - w5 d3 l2 (excluding this one they're 2-0 up in). After we beat them, they were one point and one place in front of us...

[TANGODANCER]

And now......Danns.....weaves his way through, gets tripped to no avail and has to settle for a corner. Wheater header against a Ram and he keeper grabbed it. They have it and pass a bit before Trotter clears. Butterfield tries a distance one and we eventualy get a throw. Holding gets away with a "powderpuff" on Ince. Vela gets a word from whistle man and then....we get a throw. Mic man talks about that relegation stuff and Ince goes offside. "Could have been four up" is mentioned and they get clear again. Us them, them again and....Clough clears to Danns. Again they have it and...Moxey clears. Clough can't beat the defender and it's cleared again.

[TANGODANCER]

2-0 Ince.

[TANGODANCER]

We really are not much cop are we? We get a free kick (not getting much else) and Danns wins a second one on halfway.
Throw them with five to go. Time to go in level...okay, sorry. Moxey loses out and Wheater has to block an Ince shot. Oh for a striker....Deryk clears for a throw. Christie, Russell, Thorn ....and Amos saves a Russel header. Carson takes a free kick and....then gets it back. Another attack and ....ae we having fun yet mother? Pas, pass, pass.....and some more and
headed clear as mic man gets all frenzied as Ince wins a corner. And......cleared by Danns who wins a free kick. 2-0 half time.

[DJBlu]

Them stats on the BBC website are really depressing.

73% - 27% possession.

14 shots to 5

5 to 0 on target

We really are a poor side. I don't know if this team would be capable of staying in League 1.

[Worthy4England]

Bolton going down?

Bolton are in the mire. Derby have gone 2-0 up through Tom Ince. Wanderers need to win to avoid being relegated from the Championship

BBC - bless...Do they know how much of my license fee that "?" cost?

[LeverEnd]

Not the remotest hint of any guts or fight from the team. feck every single spineless one of them.
Especially senior pro Moxey who's having another shocker.
