The debacle

Well executed Black Cats game plan IMO aided and abetted by some Derby errors. Park a fleet of buses and hit on the break. Deflection for their first. My question is did Carson call for it as he had it covered. Second from a poor pass by Keogh helped by Davies being 10 yards back and 10 yards outside of where he should have been. Following the interception you have to credit Fletcher. 3rd goal a penalty when Fozzy didn't need to make the tackle especially with the "wrong" leg. 4th a complete mess up at a corner. Why nobody on the posts? A player on the far post would have had a decent chance of an interception. Our goal? Very well taken and one of the few times we actually went down the outside and crossed rather than trying to tippy tap through an overcrowded middle. That played into their hands. Did we really miss Hudds that much ? PNE will come at us and we will be more comfortable playing that game.

Deflection ! Fozzy had time to take the laces out of the ball before heading it away up field, yet amazingly managed to steer it just wide enough of Carson to give him no chance, yet comfortably inside the post..........................then to compound the deed he scythes down a guy in the penalty area when either Carson or another defender could have closed the player down ! If he starts Monday I want Rowett out, he has lost the plot even more than Keogh, is he colour blind, or was it a brain fart that prompted him to pass to the only non Derby County shirt within 20 yards !:rant:
 
In all honesty you could think of enough reasons to leave Keogh, Fozzy, GT, BJ, Lawro and Jerome out on Monday. The other 5 put in enough but slightly less than half a team performing properly will never work.
 
There were some abysmal individual errors, I don't think Sunderland had any craft or did anything worthwhile of scoring a goal, we practically kicked it in our own net 4 times.

But Rowett has to take the blame for me. How many times does he have to change the starting line up? I understand a forced change, or maybe a winger swap now and then, but it's all over the pitch. We haven't had a settled strike force since... Nugent and Vydra during the winning streak? Why does he keep switching Baird (who I clearly saw telling his team mates to F off on the camera) with Wisdom? How the hell, are Forsyth and Olsen, getting picked before a blade of grass each week?

We don't look like a team. And sticking Palmer on to try and beat 11 men every time he touched the ball was stupid. He was running into his own players. Just a group of strangers on the field.

Worst performance I've witnessed since Reading 2007.

Only players who put a decent shift in were Vydra and Weimann.
 
Been supporting for longer than I care to remember and seen plenty of utter tripe but, after due consideration (about 3 seconds), I have placed that in my top 5!! Every Ram who attended should get a full refund and every player be required to donate their ill gotten gains to charity. The Great Train Robbers had nowt on these Derby players, my tortoises could have done more in midfield and they are still hibernating!!
 
Ah well it has always been so, or at lest since keogh made the mistake that lost us the last play off final - that display in the first leg of the playoffs against Hull was equally inept, we need real battling players who are proud to play for the club not these fancy dans and hiring aging players has done us no favours yet again!
 
Wow...that bad mac?

Swaley is right though...Hull at home was as dreadful as anything and then look what happened three days later.

Don’t get it...why and how does it happen for the fourth year running?
 
Deja vu but don't tell Rowett as it annoys him! What worries me is next season if we have a bad run up to Christmas! Would it be guaranteed relegation?
 
Maybe that’s the trick. Expectation being the mother of disappointment and all that. Next year we’ll be sh*t up until Christmas and then go on a glorious winning run for the rest of the season when no ones looking!

Didn’t Palace do that years ago? Near bottom at Christmas and ended up being promoted?

Adi. must agree about Forsythe and Ollson but we've nobody else please don't say swap Baird over Were just a complete shambles at the moment can't even try to work out what system were supposed to be playing Palmer were shall I start thinks he's Messi but the with Russell's brain I remember reading on Huddersfield fans forum the thread " who would you get rid of " and 90% said Palmer says it all

May be time to make some management decisions. Put Wisdom at centre back in place of Keogh, after all he won league and Cup last year in that position. Ask Keogh to fill in at Left Back/wingback, as he like to gallop forward. Rowett doesn't seem to have a clue and can't adapt.

We need radical action at this point or we are heading for an 8th to 10th place finish !
