Errrr...very easily. What have Forest achieved since Clough left them? A yoyo club for a few seasons followed by relegation to the Championship, followed by two successive seasons in Division 1, the third tier of English football, somewhere they had not been for god knows how long. A team that has averaged a different manager every season for the last 10 seasons. Yeah, thats not "chit" at all.
Derby have been in the Premiership for 6 out of the last 10 seasons - ok we were dross last year, no doubting that, but we got there against all the odds and it was not that long ago we had two successive top 12 finishes in the Prem, during our stay of 5 successive seasons in the top flight.
If you had a clue about the current state of Derby's squad, you would know we have done nothing but get rid of the "OAP'S" you refer to, players like Darren Moore, Kenny Miller, Michael Johnson, Mo Camara, and getting rid of dross like Bucktooth Earnshaw and Craig Fagan, and getting in early to mid 20 something players like Paul Connolly, Paul Green, Ruben Zadkovich, Liam Dickinson and Steve Davies, as well as bringing in established Championship class players like Albrechtsen, Ellington and Hulse. We have also retained the young potential stars we had within our squad - Dean Leacock, Stephen Pearson and of course Giles Barnes. We even took the Red Dogs best player in Kris Commons, as by his own words "Derby match his ambitions - Forest couldnt".
If you wanna slate my team, at least get your facts right before you try...all you have actually done is prove Bally's comments right, about the abject lack of intelligence of people of the Coventry area.....well done
