There are teams who play it hard - Rough & Tumble I call it - and there are teams who like to play 'proper' like we do.
Rough & Tumble in my book includes Cardiff - they are a poor footballing side but they battle like crazy and have a manager who can motivate like no other. And they won't last five mins in the Prem.
We by contrast, would last more than 5 mins - with some astute additions - but don't seem to be able to cut it against, rugged, uncomprimising teams - a la Birmingham.
In the play off's the Coach needs to chuck some of his purist principles out of the door and realise we have to square up. Derby will have no principals so we need to adopt a 'bottle' mode without being in any way dirty. It's the only way.
