MATCH THREAD: “ DERBY COUNTY v CARDIFF CITY “ MATCH THREAD

What's the point of having that monumental battle to sign Robertson ahead of all the other interested clubs for him not to get into this f*cking awful team????

I am sorry but if the cornerstone of our attacking philosophy is Kanga then we are well and truly fcuked.

After 50 odd games i still have no idea what we are trying to do. Everyman and his dog knows to crowd the middle in a low block and we are clueless. 2 DM's wingers who stay so far from their striker it looks like they have had a divorce and the "10" in so much space but fcuk all in front of him.....

He has to go

I think this is the season where we finally drop out of this league.

This manager has had his chance to build a squad and it looks like it couldn't compete in League 2!!

Sadly, agree. We are 100% in a relegation fight season yet again. We'll lose 2 nil today and Leeds will smash us next week. It's a mess. Buluts slow set is clearly to blame. He needs to be sacked tonight so we can get freshen up and start having a go to stay up.

I'm hoping we held some preliminary interviews over the last 2 weeks.

Another half that started well only for the Bluebirds to be dealt with the sucker punch…!

Beyond that, our revamped team has certainly had their moments and a second half revival is still possible…!

HALF-TIME SCORE: DERBY COUNTY 1 - 0 CARDIFF CITY (45+1 mins)

Love your optimism mate but harsh reality will kick in soon if Erol stays in charge.

We create things but dont have the finishing that other teams seem to have ..... we are equal to them in every department (stats) yet still we are losing ..

EL Ghazi doesn't look up for it to me. The no risk football is costing us too many times. I agree with most , Siopis is too slow and is getting caught too many times. I would change formation and go with a back three, something that NG is particularly good at and will give us the option to play someone upfront with Kanga.
Not that I think this will happen. Worrying times.

Been slightly better than so far this season, but not much.

Schoolboy defending for their goal.

Colwill is terrible at decision making, should have squared it to Kanga but instead shot and it was easy for their goalkeeper.

Derby better going forward than we are so probably deserve to be ahead.

Any striker would have shot in that position. If he'd squared it to Kanga and he missed, people would have a go at Colwill for not shooting.

It seems at times whatever Colwill does you'll find a fault there somewhere.

Robertson and Tanner should come on for Siopis and EL Ghazi at half time.

There are also others that find no fault in what Colwill does.

Its so static, Our nonstandard tactic (that everyone does) is inverting Bagan or NG into midfield but inevitably they are let go because Derby knows nothing is going to happen.

We need movement, just some, a tiny bit please but Kanga isn't going to give us that then everyone else is in "position" and don't move.

One of the DM's had to go and drop Colwill a bit deeper!!!!

Perry NG replaced by Will Fish

Given our target was top six and that's clearly not going to be happening this season, Tan needs to be ruthless and dispatch Bulut now. I can't stand Tan but have to feel some sympathy with him being so let down by this absolute garbage. Regardless of the second half performance this decision needs to be made tonight

I wonder if what will happen is we’ll attack for a bit at the start of the second half, not score and then derby score a second and see the game out comfortably.

The whole teams decision making is poor and there lies the problem.... better decision making I'm sure will lead to goals and concede less.

Oh he's definitely got faults, but what he needs is our support not criticism in everything he does.

Derby lose one of their best players hobbles off

That's Bulut's job......

We'll lose......

Due to Bulut not knowing how to manage in the English League

Cardiff’s 5th corner

Totally wasted

Come on Derby are poor

Colwill plays the ball to Kanga who is useless and a pathetic shot

Bagan booked late challenge

Reindorf needs to be sent on with the "go & prove yourself son" message.

Derby another corner

Bloody hell
