Paul Green equalizes for Derby at Bristol City
August 18, 2008 | Fixtures
Bristol City 1 - Derby County 1
Paul Green gave Derby their first point of the season after harsh words from Paul Jewell during the break seemed to lift spirits and determination in the team.
Nicky Maynard knocked in the opening goal for Bristol City during a first half which didn’t seem to have a Derby team present. Our performance was outshone by the home side and it didn’t seem to change much before the interval.
But after proper slating in the dressing room, the Rams came back out on the pitch and showed sheer determination. It wasn’t long before Paul Green finished off a fine opportunity to take Derby level but it didn’t stop there.
Both teams pushed hard in the second hard and it could have been anyone’s game. Considering Derby were playing last season’s play-off qualifiers, it shows what level of play we are capable of.
So far, this season, we have won one, lost one and drawn one. That’s a much better start than last season!
