Chatting to a #dcfc mate this morning, and he said the most Derby fan thing. "I think on the back of that win, we are probably safe from relegation." 🤣 #dcfcfans

Bloody good time to come back!

Well if we keep playing like this, anything is possible! #dcfc

Has your opinion changed on number 7 on that list?

Good buy for Portsmouth, they are in the grip of a relegation fight, and if there is one person you know will fight until his last breath it's Ebou.

As we are 2 points off the play offs I have a Sunday #dcfc thought, after what happened the last time we went up too early in a cycle - I am fine for Derby to be inconsistent and miss out this season, as long as we build and mount a challenge next season. #dcfcfans

Mostly fun, sweating at the end. #dcfc #dcfcfans

On the train over to Charlton, feels a little like the cup team! See if CBT can strut his stuff #dcfc

I think that is what he has gone for looking at the lineup.

I might be alone in this but I put Nelson, Ebou and Jackson when he goes into the "wish them well, but not particularly sad they are gone" category. Ebou and Nels were BEASTS in League One but the team looks better when they are not in it, Jackson, smaller impact but that Boro goal 🤩 #dcfc #dcfcfans

Ebou Adams is stripped and warming up for the 2nd half. #dcfc #dcfcfans

I think I twisted my shoulder when that goal went in. #dcfc #dcfcfans

I think he is one of my favourite ex-Derby players still playing. #dcfc #dcfcfans

I think that Derby may have their classic terrible Jan/Feb. With the injuries and form issues as they are, I can't see us getting many results. (I can't wait to see the Leeds game live) #dcfc #dcfcfans

It feels like "Will club X beat the #dcfc 07-08 record" season comes earlier every year.

Love the stats from @derbycountyblog.bsky.social - but the fact this isn't changing isn't filling me with confidence....

Need someone to plug the central gap. Brewster/Tommo/a dog/Eustace himself. Just a body that means there isn't a huuuge central midfield gap.

So glad this game is on ITV so a wider audience can watch us get our pants pulled down. #dcfc #dcfcfans

Hey @derbycountyblog.bsky.social are you aware of the Uncle Jeff Coefficient? From @totallyshow.bsky.social, it measures how a team does in the corresponding fixture last season compared to this season. #dcfc are 2 points better off. I replaced the relegated/promoted teams with their counterparts.
