Our crap december mught come back to trip us up.

Only if we have another bad run.  the odd draw or defeat is pretty much to be expected but what we can't afford is a run of 4-5 without a win, if that happens again we're in the playoffs.

Only three sides have scored more. Impressive considering our problems up front. Its nice we can spread the goals around. I don't think Albert has scored since before Christmas.

I think green deserves some game time as Albert has been a touch off the boil of late

Green seems to have disappeared since the cup game.

Is he injured again as our bench isn't exactly overflowing with forward options.

Yes, not sure having both Jedinak and Whelan on the bench makes much sense. Can’t really see Bruce dropping them though.

I'd like to see RHM getting on the bench soon, 3 in 2 for the U23s and looked busy in the couple of subs appearances a few weeks back.  I really like Davis but if you're wanting a goal from the bench RHM looks a much better bet for it.

No reason he couldn't have been on the bench tonight, four defensive minded outfield players on it.

Get the feeling it was a sort of message to the board you see managers do when they want a new signing in.

That’s lovely - seeing a league table with Villa near the top of it . On for 84 points at current rate, will that be enough for top 2 ?

Maybe it was simply down to him playing yesterday that he wasn’t available.

There's panic on the forums of Derbyshire.

7 points ahead o' t'Blades now when it could easily have been 1. Magic.

Be nice if Brentford could temporarily turn into the West London Brazil they always play like when we are up against them.

If they score first it will be interesting as Derby have had three games out the last six where they've failed to score.
