  1. I was a manager with some success during most of my working life I learned early that the way to the objective was team work, any or all part of that team was heralded at some point, each person playing their part, large or small, but all of it orchestrated by the manager. The eventual goal being reached by the group, was the indicator of a good manager, so I will say we have a good manager. We have much further to go to reach the promised land of milk and honey, and I would expect that most would give a grudging acceptance that Mr Warne should have the opportunity to take us to the next level. He may choose not to accept the challenges ahead and decide to step down. He may feel the challenge too much, and decide that he can maintain his kudos at a lower level and should that be the case, I would heartily thank him for his hard work in getting us out of the millpond of Division 1. I personally think he will have much still to offer in a higher setting, and should he decide that the timing is right and wishes to uptake the stark challenges ahead, I for one would whole heartedly support that initiative. I like his whole club mentality and generally as a person he comes over as genuine, and that will always be a key issue for this old fan, he cares. So to close, Mr Warne because of you leadership and moral code, I will accept your decision either way, but if you stay you will definitely have the support of this old RAM. 🦍
  2. my bum is sore what the hell happened!!!!!!!
  3. Not often you see a 17 stone gorilla with tears in his eyes Took me back to my youth when we were promoted from 3rd div north So great for the young guns to get some good stuff to remember as well as all the $hite We are Derby county, we are on our way etc 🦍
  4. Win 2 games against unfancied opposition Simple /No brainer /just do it 🦍
  5. Loved the score line yesterday but still have concerns regarding scoring from open play as well. I get this is L1 but a quality finisher would have had a couple for sure when is Gayle back?
  6. just caught the highlights We were worth a draw well done all PS When did Pompey sign a fox? NML was in acres of space heading for goal when he sneaked on. Hate Foxes
  7. I saw the incident, thought it was a deliberate, trip nailed on red card
  8. I can recommend the fish and chips in both establishments, along with Doombar at less than £2 a pint Whats not to like
  9. The Silverbacks are renewed (in more ways than one). Unless there is a hardship issue, I firmly believe that this decision ,despite the obvious team /Manager etc, should be based on no other reason than you support DCFC. Either go or dont but dont blame it on outside issues, its the club that you are supporting. COYR 🦍
  10. just watched the highlights 2 X $**t teams 1X bad decision Nuff said 🦍
  11. After past criticisms I felt it incumbent on myself to praise the glaringly obvious work done by the backroom and indeed the manager. They had clearly decided to play in a way that cut off the passing through of their CB's and the boys grafted tirelessly to make it work. The pivotal part of the game for us IMHO ,was that we had the ability to get in the crosses and from any deadball we piled on it. Nelson went close from this and there were several occasions from corners which made me wonder where their CB's had gone. Never seen so much panic, clearly the training ground has been utilised to the max this week. So well done PW and the back room team and super well done to the squad, it has been many years since I felt so tense/excited at the game and seeing the West stand throw away their zimmers made my heart gladden COYR🦍
  12. https://www.ents24.com/uk/tour-dates/andy-askins Went to Derby Playhouse last night for the comedy store, this guy was superb (think Harry Hill with smaller collars and a guitar) Not just a play to the crowd job, was very off the wall, wet myself laughing at the Sting send up "massage in a brothel" Well worth the trip at around £20 a seat In fact the comedy store, which plays every month or two is well worth the money. Some great emerging talent and some great established (not mainstream)comedy acts
  13. Soooo many variables ....... Under pressure even the best will falter. Teams fighting relegation could be a big factor Rivalries (local\time honoured etc) The capricious nature of lady luck Injuries Suspensions PLUS and finally since when did Derby county ever do anything the easy way? All that said its far better to have a nail biting finish than mid table apathy COYR 🦍
  14. No was my aussie cousin The sentiment was mine though
  15. I thought that was a superb save on their second goal, a one handed save from the first shot, just unfortunate that the ball went straight to their lad who tucked it away with some aplomb, as our defenders stood and watched Luck is very capricious, another day would have seen a different ending
  16. NML chasing down got us the corner that we scored from Just saying like
  17. cyclists who still block the road despite $$$$ spent on a track for them
  18. I fully expect 6 points from these 2 x home games I also fully expect to be disappointed too
  19. R u a real Derby fan? Never heard of the Derby Way?
  20. Have I just had to explain the greatest motor mouth of a generation
