Under Jim Smith (Derby’s most successful manager in the past 30 years) Derby were 20th after 6 games. We were abject. Lost at Barnsley in late Sept. Chants of ‘Smith out’. History no guarantee of the future of course. I was patient at Oakwell and I’m patient now #dcfc

If I were DC I’d be asking about the merits of the Academy; times such as this they should’ve 2 or 3 players ready to step up. Circa £4m a year to run, Cashin was seen as an unknown quantity when he was given a go, others too, needs must #dcfc time to see if JE walks the walk

As well as being a top bloke, Colston writes excellent blogs for anyone seeking out good pubs. Take a read- he knows his stuff!
Bit quicker than usual with my next pub blog piece. A return visit to @theolddogthorpe and it's so good to see them doing well after four years of hard work. A chance to trot out the "life in the Old Dog" headline again of course...

Is our (all too regular) slow starts to seasons a result of not having any pre season games against higher ranked or placed teams? Playing lower ranked teams needs a certain mindset and application, and isn’t a true reflection of who we will play or how we aspire to play? #dcfc

10th to 6th with a shot at play offs with 3 games to go. Top 3 will be a cut above, next 2 a step behind and 6th up for grabs between 4 or 5 teams I reckon…..
Must be suffering lack of sleep, in my mind I can see us winning the last two games (last night was arguably the hardest of the 3), I can’t see Wrexham getting more than 2 pts from their 2 fixtures; Hull MAY beat Charlton but not Norwich IMO so the Charlton game is THE one #dcfc

Academy costs £4m a year. Lack of will to play youngsters is galling. We’re developing 16-21 year olds in effect with no net gain unless they can attain a value by playing in the 1st team. Admin no longer an excuse. Academy been up and running over 2 years. @BBCDerbySport #dcfc

My Rovers pal says that Eustace can’t get any worthwhile comms out the Venkys. Factor in new Indian taxation laws that levy 40% tax on any money sent to overseas business and the cracks start to appear…. #dcfc

I think a reasonable question to ask of PW ‘do you think your preferred style, ball out wide and crosses in the box, is on its own too predicable in champ and is there not a place for ball carriers such as KG, DO, EA etc to break and play though the lines?’ @domjdietrich
