I've found it. It's very quick though.

How quick!

Torres is the new him

Ive done my penance

Had a chat with some Chelsea fans before the game - guys who go back nearly as far as I do. We passed over the violent times quite quickly and agreed that those days should stay firmly in the past.

I enjoyed the game and thought that both teams were a credit to their divisions. Yes, there is a gulf between us but by and large Derby acquitted themselves well.

I can see Chelsea winning it again - but goodness me, you can see the area even in their brilliant team that needs a little work. If anyone had told me just 3 months ago that Jake Buxton would play Eto'o and Torres off the park, I would have laughed in their face before ringing up the mental hospital.

Eddie, there's a big difference, when you've got a £50mil player coming off the bench, and we've got Conor Sammon

I think Jake Buxton will say the same Eddie.
He does say that if Barker hadn't of got injured and he hadn't come on the pitch against Forest his career would be very different now. When McClaren 1st come in alot of people where saying his days are numbered at Derby and he'll be off with NC. He's grateful for Clough getting him to the starting 11 at derby. He's now grateful to McClaren for showing faith in him to make him captain and getting the best from him and developing him into 1 of the best CB in the Championship.

wassa.tbf to sammon he didn't do too bad. he battled and with abit more composure on the ball could of created a chance or 2

Amber, that is the post of the year already mate.

Never thought of it like that, barks off, whispers Bucko, Bucko scores the winner, so he's just minding it.


Barker and Buxton

could you imagine how much moaning the Derby would do if we sold Buxton to Sheff Utd.

Griff I'm not on about Conor Sammons performance, I'm on about the difference in quality player coming on. A £50mil player from Liverpool compared to a Burton Albion player.

yeah I did think similar. They had Hazzard, Torres and a youth team player making his debut come off the bench. we had Sammon and Bailey and a payer who by-passed the youth team

Sammon is the guy who looks like he plays rugby league?

Bammo will do better

we will still need sammon around the squad for the rest of the season

I know amber, Bam Bam will help you change it up tho

3 kids in defence plus Bucko, 2 more kids in midfield. This against international superstars. The players weren't overawed and stuck to their task incredibly well. The first was a daft foul by Ward and a virtually undefendable ball into the box, the second Grant seemed unsighted. Overall we limited them to very few clear chances. Fantastic individual performances and organisation.

good experience for not only the young players but all the squad.

Rather it now than a semi-final.

don't know mate....a semi-final would of been good.
talking of semi's I think alot of forest fans have got semi's after today

Good for McClaren too amber, to see what will be required should we get to the point where these are regular fixtures and we need to get something out of the game. I think he will have learned a lot today.

__________________________________________

Indeed, Wassa - the much-maligned Conor Sammon who out-performed said £50m player by miles.

That was the point you were making, wasn't it?

Indeed Eddie, he's been playing out if his skin for the 18 months he's been here......

I went to the match yesterday and watched the highlights. I'm sure we touched the ball more than once. The stats say we had as many shots as Chelsea, so that supports my view of the game. The chat with Strachen only focussed on one second of some bloke diving and made no mention of the other 92mins and 59 seconds of the game.

I'm totally gobsmacked at how poor a reflection of the match was served up for the world to view, a total insult to Derby County.

Totally agree with your appraisal Jab.

I thought Chelsea and their fans were a credit to the Premier League. Excellent football throughout and we gave them a good game.
What a difference losing to a proper football club / team compared with that shower that is Wigan Athletic.
