Huge Win 21:45 - Nov 27 with 4452 viewsBrianMcCarthy

We're 23rd and two points off safety.

Would have been 24th and six points off had we lost.

I know it's only November but that's a big result.

I don't want to come across as Job's comforter but aren't we getting a bit carried away.
Cardiff were drek but, by virtually every measure, except the most important one ( Goals for and against), they were the better side. Possession, shots, on target, pass completion, etc. Plenty of us had Nardi as MOM!
If we are that far below parity, then we'll lose a lot more than we win. Watford & Norwich are likely to be much stiffer tests.


Very fair point.
I was really only talking about the result, Derby. I agree in terms of performance, though.

I thought we were nervous in possession again and rarely built a calm move to relieve the pressure.

I also thought we tired again, mentally, physically, combination of both?...who knows from the outside.

It looked like what it was - a team desperately trying to win it's first game in ages. I thought we looked calm at the back but nervous from there on up.

Hopefully, we'll show more poise on Saturday now that we've a win under our belt.

Sorry, but bar the goals we were pretty poor. Unfortunately, the stats don't lie, and I have a horrible feeling we will be found out on Saturday.

We still seem to be wide open and far to easy to play through.
We still need a nasty bustard in midfield, oh hang on, taxi for Hayden? Nah, our right back we just brought in is gash......


Found out? What's to discover? Pretty sure Watford will meet with no surprises.

Poll: QPR to finish 7th or Brentford to drop out of the top 6?

The thing is that it doesn't matter if we're rubbish. If we finish 1 GD above the relegation zone this season that's job done. And a goalkeeper who stops shots and, dare I say it, a striker who scores goals, will win enough games where the stats say we were worse for us to do that.. it's not glorious but it is survival.
