Canary73 150 Posted April 20, 2021 Although Rotherham have games in hand, only two are at home (Boro tomorrow and Blackburn on 1 May). They have to play Barnsley, Brentford, Luton and Cardiff away so not the kindest of fixtures. Derby meanwhile have Brum at home, Swansea away then Sheff Weds at home on the last day so arguably they look more favourable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
city4eva 207 Posted April 20, 2021 I have a feeling Derby will stay up, would love to see Rooney get relegated tho Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aggy 750 Posted April 20, 2021 Rotherham got fairly tricky games. Derby’s last few look easier on paper. Think they’ll stay up just about. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pete 318 Posted April 21, 2021 When it comes down to the crunch Clubs with nothing to play for might think it would be fun to see Derby in League 1. I would fend it highly amusing and Paul Warne will be happy. Also Wednesday who play Derby last game are in the hunt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GJL Mid-Norfolk Canary 1,735 Posted April 21, 2021 In the interests of consigning ipswich to a 4th season in division 3 , provided sunderland dont go up this season, a league with Derby , Sheff Weds,Sunderland ,Charlton and Portsmouth and one or two others next season ,should ensure that...

Surfer 1,547 Posted April 21, 2021 Still three games in hand for Rotherham over Derby to close a four point gap. Wednesday four points behind but yet to play Derby - so win that and it's down 1 Squeaky bum time isn't it? Final table ? Wednesday 44 -19 GD ----------------- Derby 44 - 20 GD Rotherham 43 Wycombe 38 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
K Lo 221 Posted April 21, 2021 Rotherham just lost this evening. They need 4 points from their 2 games in hand then to match Derby. Unfortunately, I don't think that Rotherham have it in them to pick up 4 more points than Derby, although they did beat Derby themselves 3-0, when Norwich only just got past them 1-0 more recently.

dylanisabaddog 4,858 Posted April 22, 2021 I can't understand why Derby have struggled. They bought a Premier League standard centre forward from Ipswich a couple of years ago. Well that's what it says on TWTD. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GJP 79 Posted April 22, 2021 Not surprising when you look at Derby's squad. There's not much to get excited about. No problem with Rooney though. Great player and it'll be interesting to see how he does as a coach in the years to come. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Early '80s would mean Boomers were between 16 and 34. So technically, you could have been between say, 6 and 16 in the early '80's and still have recollection of the period. So not entirely a "Boomer" thing. Edited April 22, 2021 by chicken 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
