The early season glow has definitely worn off. This is absolute bobbins. And I’m not seeing this big reaction or fight to last week. If anything it looks like it’s knocked the stuffing right out of us.

Definitely getting the impression one or two haven't got it out of their system. As for big reaction. I don't think anyone was expecting that to happen, more wishful thinking.


Maybe its just a case of someone has forgot to put the kettle on!

Given we have a target for the top two we had to hope last week was a complete anomaly. It now looks like the first three games were and last week was more a warning of how much we need to do before the deadline.

Three games an anomaly, but 1.3 games definitely extrapolatable :mrgreen:

If you want to go up you can’t afford games like last week to happen more than once or twice a season. And certainly have to follow it up straight away with a decent win.

The issue is we’ve heard all week about a big reaction yet this lot look cowed not emboldened and determined.

Not been too bad the last 10 minutes or so. Maybe a game for CMG to weave a bit of magic.

Derby now 3-1 up at Posh, who appear to have fallen into a hole. 3 goals from 4 on target!

Lincoln – one of those anomolous teams we walked past earlier in the season - 2-0 up against Blackpool to go fourth as it stands

That pass was sublime. Charles, well I don't think he has a left foot.

Two midfield players booked. Should Evatt take them both off?

We are screaming out for a proper commanding midfield player. And probably two wing backs. If we don’t find those before the deadline I think it’s probably the difference between going up and not.

It's more about the result than performance for me. We can always expect a horrid, ugly game and being under the cosh at Burton

Looked like he was trying to pass it through to Adeboyejo and it didnt quite make contact.
