Well that is a pleasant surprise. Don’t think my heart will last a season if this is what the games will be like.

I'd have taken a draw from both Blackburn and Boro, so we're ahead on my recking.

Good result, rode our luck a bit but stuck to the plan. Happy days.

Well. That was a massive result. I fully expected us to get beaten... and we rode our luck at times. But clearly Warney had a game plan .. and it worked.
An incredibly tough game - which the players as one rose to. Vickers clearly playing for his place now didn't put a foot wrong.
This win will however give the players a massive boost. So well done Derby. Cheers. Terry. UTR

Just back home after a couple and I must say that we played well. I can't find any fault at all! Vickers was magnificent and I reckon the Turnip will make a good sub.

What a player Ozoh is going to be, don't forget Scouse I got in first on this.

Good start should get some confidence and I think we'll be mid table come next May.

Early days but I hope any PW bashers are starting to have second thoughts. Tactics spot on agin a very good side who showed numerous times just what we lack - real inventiveness in the final third. For all that we were not put in serious trouble especially as most of their efforts were from long range and brilliantly dealt with by the wrongly-maligned Vickers. (People should remember that it will take months, maybe years for him completely to get over his tragic loss.)

A great learning curve for Kenzo who will have to do more to get into a game and for Ozoh who occasionally turns into trouble - and yet usually comes out of it by sheer strength.

I feared that our injuries might lead to a defeat but we are made of stern stuff. Elder, Nelson and Nyambe were solid as was Bradley apart from one or two weak headed clearances. Osborne was superb, so calm and assured under pressure; Collo worked his socks off but NML seemed to find it hard to get involved, maybe because of tight marking. Jackson was troublesome and his goal was brilliantly taken - far from easy.

We certainly could do with a quick and skillful striker and playmaker in midfield unless Kenzo can fill that role. A speedy CB would also be useful.

Finally I also ask - where is the bar-tailed Heb?

....alas....I fear Heb has joined UT....where ever that may be... or perhaps he's Bird watching somewhere... or building a new Croft...

PS The ref was terrible, obviously working from the premise - if in doubt give a foul or better still assume every tackle = foul.

No Chicago I thought the ref was good, he let play go on and didn't fall for the cheats.

Osborne was great and I think he should be the captain.

Interesting VC (re ref). Isn't it wonderful how different folk see different things. Long may it be so!

Yes, here we agree - I think O would be a good captain.
