Just about to start.

I think Blackburn could be the surprise package this season after their problems with Venkys. Going for a 2-1 win (10/1) and Jordan Rhodes first goal (5/1).

1 nil to the Rams from the penalty spot. What a ridiculous handball.

Derby look like another side who have progressed in the summer. Could be a tricky game next Saturday.

We seemed to be one of Derby's bogey sides in recent seasons. 3 wins and a draw. Lets hope we can add another 'w' to the list this weekend.

That Blackburn shirt represents everything that is wrong with template shirts. Dozens of pub teams and half of the teams in the NWSL have a permutation of that, proper grotty.

As for the Derby shirt, where to start, a black band on the back, but not the front? Proper grotty also.

Encouragingly both teams look crap at the back.

They may as well rename Blackburn 'Rhodes FC'. They've got bugger all else.

Will Hughes is quality.

Very similar to Vicente just walks by players with the ball.

Shouldn't he stop and try to tackle them?

You said he walks past players with the ball. If those players have the ball he should stop and tackle them to win possession.


(Yes, I know what you mean).

Was not impressed with Derby. What is it with teams who decide to hang on to a goal lead and just give the initiative to the opposition? They got what they deserved.

Would never see the Albion doing that.....
