Jack Burroughs can't be any worse, can he?

Maybe at left back he could be.

On your bike sunshine, if you can find it that is otherwise try hitchhiking.

He was an utter clown

One and three minutes added time at the end of each half was laughable

Derby’s keeper wasted about two minutes on his own in the first half, not even taking into account a goal celebration

And that Derby player going over the advertising boards, referee checking to see if he was okay, absolute joke.

That was at least 2 minutes.

He was off the pitch, why did the game need to be stopped for so long?

 

[Saddlebrains]

missed 48% of games this season. Unacceptable.

How many full 90s has he played this season?

I'm pretty sure it's only 7 or 8 games

Pitiful

He's just a wank referee - Never met an EFL fan with a good word to say about him

He reminds me of Mike Dean how much he wants to be a celebrity

First game I saw him ref, wasn’t one of ours, I thought he was the best most balanced refs I’d seen in a long time. Every time since I’ve thought he’s had a shocker. Also can’t be easy having a total clown running the sidelines though.

It’s 14

Meanwhile Ephron Mason-Clark has played a grand total of two full 90s this season

It’s a strange thing to get angry about

I thought a few people would have a meltdown when we finally lost a game but didn't expect this many.

From the reactions you would think it was Derby who had nearly 70% of the possession and it was us that only had 2 shots on target. I agree we didn't play well but it's difficult against 10 players in the box defending and playing on the break with speed.

Let's try to remember that most of our best players are either injured or coming back from injury. We're playing with a makeshift side trying to get fitness into players. We're in a much better position than most thought possible. We have 3 difficult games coming up but 2 are at home. Sunderland won't be coming here to put all 11 players in the box. Burnley got a player and their manager sent off last night.

Weren’t Derby missing a few players?

Missing most of their 1st team.

He’s dreadful that Sam Allison - The epitome of likes to make himself the centre of attention

I think he was referee for a home game last season, and was crap in that as well.

Well, what a disappointment. Need to replace 3 of the back 4 in the summer (all 4 if MvE goes) and could do with a striker. Been a little unlucky that both our LW options have spent time injured at the same time.

When the opposition are setting up in a low block you have to move forward quicker in transition. All we did was almost a carbon copy of the game at the CBS - slow play, allowing them to get set, then trying to go round rather than play through. Centre mid balance was off. Grimes picking the ball up far far too deep.

It did give the impression of no space to operate.
