Refs already taking the opportunity to give any 60/40 Cheltenham decisions to Derby.

Did I hear Pete Matthews say the name of the league two forward we are targeting just now?

Why does Southwood make such a thing about strikers standing in front of him when he has the ball in his hands? We have seen already that off he just kicks it and the striker blocks it then they'll get booked, so just crack on.

Who? He's said Austin a couple of times but also said he can confirm it's not him.

I didn’t catch the name of the target but I heard him say it wasn’t Austin.

And breaking news it's not me. Selling our forward is and will cost us. But great business apparently according to some

Good half but our cohesion and passing dropped off as the half went on. We have to take our chances, and we haven't yet (again).

Throwing away 2-0 leads. Not taking chances. Bad referees costing us. This is reminiscent of the first relegation we suffered from L1.

As it was an awkward fall will a concussion check be needed?🤔

Those of us who know a bit about football knew Goodwin’s goals were easily replaced with goal machine sercombe firing on all cylinders. Great business!

Long time to hang on here, but radio five said the lead is well deserved. Need a second

Only seen it once but that looked like a penalty all day long. Then ref gives Derby a soft free kick on the edge of our box...

Not like Lloyd to have bad decisions given against him

We always concede free kicks from that position. Game has turned on another c!#p ref decision. Every bloody week

Why do refs nearly always seem to side against us? Most other clubs get a penalty for that on Lloyd and it's a different game at 0-2.
