He's never put any more effort in than say Bradley Johnson or Jacob Butterfield. So who are you referring to who doesn't put in the effort?

How can you possible say that Bradley Johnson gives as much effort as Savage did, You're either so far up Johnson's arse that you can't see or just a tool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chasing shadows and backpasses whilst the oppo midfielder was always man of the match. Yeah, great contribution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Bradley Johnson gave as much effort as Savage did then he would be our best player by a mile. The lad clearly has quality in him but doesn't seem to give the effort.

Actually that's the complete opposite about Bradley Johnson. He is quite lacking in technical ability but makes up for it (to an extent) through effort and physicality.

YouRams Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 Agreed with the guy arguing about Ramage talking over people so irritating to listen to, it's as if people with a differing opinion can't voice it without him shouting over them. If he ironed that out he'd make for good listening. Only other gripe I have with RD, what vetting process do they use for callers? The amount they let on who just repeat the same point as previous callers is a joke, you hear the same tripe spoken about for ages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WystonRam Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Missed my first game of the season yesterday, so I listened to the radio, absolutely dreadful.. Whoever commentates,is it Ed or Owen ? was utterly terrible. Hardly ever up with play and trying to make quips all the way through the game, local radio at its best !

RamO Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Honestly, I don't know why I bothered reading this thread. I don't know why people moan so much about RD. They do a good job. The match day commentary is informative and entertaining. Ramage actually talks a lot of sense a lot of the time (I know I'm going to get pilloried for stating that). OB is a very talented journo and I'd be surprised if he isn't a national sports journalist in a few years. Ed does a good job on match day. I think people just like to moan. The only thing I don't understand is why @OwenB87 reads this guff. I hope he has a thick skin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for the welcome back Eddie, It has been a long month away from the forum but i'm glad to be back and buzzing to get going again. I know it will have been hard without me in the past month but with everyones support we can get through this and get back to the way we were prior to the temporary ban. I am committed to this forum and wouldn't want to be anywhere else. This is my home and no where could tempt me to leave. The rumours linking me with Newcastle are pure speculation and I wish to not comment further on that matter. So lets get going and have a jolly good time. thank you.

DerbyPride Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 I for one like and appreciate the Radio Derby coverage. Owen is a genuinely great host and I think we're lucky to have him. In the nicest way possible I hope that he stays for many years and doesn't get poached for a bigger job (and I'm not just saying that 'cos you may read this @OwenB87!). I for one like Ed's commentary and Ramage is always entertaining. I like the banter between the three and I think it really helps that they are all actual Derby fans. I got brought up listening to the Richards/Hall/Gibson combination and however good that was, I honestly think that the current coverage is comparable (and dare I say maybe even better). In fact the only thing I don't like about the coverage is the standard of callers/tweets/texts. A large percentage of them are quite frankly embarrassing. They can be as cringey as watching an episode of the Office, albeit without the laughs. I can almost hear Owen's eyes rolling in his head when he reads some of them out.

JuanFloEvraTheCocu'sNesta Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 My only issue with the commentary is that I need to go through RamsPlayer to get it. I understand commercially why it's the way it is but RamsPlayer site is a bit rubbish to say the least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had the classics, during last night's special - including someone who doesn't go to the games but knew from listening to the radio coverage that Pearson had definitely lost the dressing room and another one who couldn't discuss how he knew, but asserted that Pearson had ben sacked because of footballing reasons and then when he was told specifically that was not the case, admitted he was at a loss as to why he'd been suspended......... Which menagerie do they get these people from? Please tell me that they are not allowed to breed....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
