Cheers Ross. It was good to come away with a point, and yes, there is cause to suggest had we attacked them, they'd have scored more, but if that is how we're going to play in a Derby game from now on, or any other 'big' game, I'd rather stop watching football. I can't remember a single game in my entire life as a football fan of 50 years where I was more numb as a spectator. It shows how far we've fallen as a club to have to play like that unfortunately. I know what you mean Av. But I think it was a means to an end......I hope

I'm no fan of Allardyce, but I'm no fan of wallowing around at the bottom of the League either. This has all the hallmarks of a temporary job; just listen to the language he uses, it still sounds more "you" than "we", "them" rather than "us", so I think he's on a mission to get us stable again and then we'll see. I traveled 4 hours to STP last night, plus a night in a shocking hotel, and that's ok at the moment, but every week would be a bit crap to be honest. Let's enjoy the turnaround in results for now, and then we move on. Not sure who with mind?

I understand the need for points, above style, at the moment, but I don't see a fixed defence, but more a 'lucky' one as last night we were lucky, and were lucky at Liverpool too. The points are great, but we're not Palace, nor Stoke etc, and have quality in midfield not being utilised.
