That was the winner of the virtual grand national on Saturday!

Thanks for posting - that is a very clear picture of where we are at with the squad. Need to be planning now, but don’t know which league we are planning for and who will be making the decisions on the squad

I see this forum as a place that people can come and let go of their frustration - you know, a bit of a release - A football version of the Samaritans .

I gave it to Murphy - thought he offered a threat a there was a purpose to his play the whole game. Thought Lee did ok and Fox was pretty good. Windass was everywhere in the2nd half and never wasted the ball, but it was at a time when Derby just sat back and let us play infront of them

Did FF really have 11 shots at goal on Wednesday? Many of them were poor, but what a positive stat that is! Sometimes we don’t have that many as a team. The dipping shot the keeper parried at the near post was a great effort. If he keeps that level of involvement in games it can only end well I would think

He is impactful when we are pushing a lot of players forward- that’s why he is effective late on when we are chasing a goal. When he is isolated you can forget it - he offers very little. He works well when he has plenty of other bodies in and around him

Bannan for me. Could have had 3 assists - first half for Murphy, pass for FF and the ball over top for Fletch. plus in the last 15 he won everything in the midfield and made some lovely turns and driving runs into the attacking third - thought he was fantastic

I liked his forward role at Leeds

Wednesday need a strong character as manager. Ron, BigJack, Wilco, Bruce, Carlos could pull it off - can’t think of anyone else who has. Megson perhaps could galvanise the club, and I do think Holloway would be popular in the position.

I thought we were ok today. First 15 pretty good and closed down well. Their goal knocked us badly bu then we came on string towards the end of the half. Sending off then screwed us. Even so, I thought we continued to battle for something - the second goal was a tad unlucky. It will turn I’m sure of it

All I ask is commitment from all 11 - that would be start

Be interesting to see how many are there today. Weather shocking as well as the football. Will there be a Dunkirk spirit in the ground? Me and the lad are just heading off now - I’m praying again for some spirit on the pitch - but not expecting it I’m afraid

Always go thinking “We might be great today” - even though that is hard to imagine right now

I’ve never left it this late - me and the lads season tickets not yet renewed, but I’m sure I will do it tonight. Problem being currently that we are just not excited going to the game - but it’s our “day out” together. Probably better ways to spend £530 - maybe, maybe not - hoping the excitement returns soon
