According to JC, last week at Plymouth we were the better team. Sorry JC, no we weren't. The best team won 3-0 and remain league leaders.
At the end of the day the result trumps sentiment and history will record yesterday as a 3-0 victory for Derby County.
If points were awarded for 'ifs, buts & maybe's', Stanley would lead the table.

What did disappoint me Lord S was seeing in the 90th minute Derby County's Captain demanding more from his players , irregardless of the score.. Whilst our stand-in leader was wandering around aimlessly seemingly having given up the fight !.
Now this is not right !...If ever a team needed grabbing by the throat and shaking into life it is NOW !. But just where such a leader exists at The Crown at present is hard to see I'm afraid !.
Having admired and said as much, I hope that I wasn't 'jumping on Sean's back 'when I suggested that the time to maybe think of hanging up boots is nigh .. Merely passing opinion based on making comparisons with those midfielders/wingers in other teams which we see week in week out The Crown.
Of course, this is just me thinking aloud, and I could be entirely wrong !.. 😎
