Dreadful game. Don't care for now.

Bacuna is an idiot. Absolute dick.

Same again Tuesday.

The linesman deserved to be dropkicked all the way up Witton Lane.

As ridiculous as it sounds we will miss Bacuna.  That was stupid.

Great to get a win, but numbed by that performance. A bit like having a root canal - necessary but extremely uncomfortable.

Clean sheet too, rarer than even a win.

Wasn't there, but what exactly did Bacuna do to get a straight red?

No cohesion, dreadful performance lucky that Derby had no finishers. Yes happy to get the three points but wouldn't pay to see that rubbish.

Gobbed off to the twat linesman, he shouldn't of but he was pissed off. He gives a fuck, fair play to Bacuna. Good attitude today from the team.

29% possession at home is not the way to succeed long term, but the win was all that was required today.

No chance if getting away with that again. Am sure though that Bruce will want to show us otherwise on Tuesday.

We needed the result.
As much as I would love to see flowing football, it aint going to happen with Bruce.
And our current situation decrees we need a result.
But at 1-0 and 30% possession at home you are on the seat of your pants.
Onwards and Upwards

Didn't sound great but an important win. Hopefully get some confidence from that and finish the season well.

Maybe an omen, but didn't our run in 89/90 start with a win against Derby?   Hopefully that will give us a big lift for Tuesday.

From the highlights, a Derby player slides and puts the ball *clearly* into touch from under Bacuna's feet, right under the linesman's nose. Bacuna, clearly fired up, gives him a mouthful and the lino bleats to the ref.
