As an expat, it looks like I'll still be paying my 20 quid a month for RamsTV and also still get back for around 8 games next season. I'd do more but finances dictate otherwise. I'd never dream of using a dodgy stick for a Rams game. Can't say I'm as honest when it comes to things I can't get over here, things I'm not even allowed to pay for like UK Sky or TNT or ITV, Channel 4 enz.

It seems the unsold "away" seats don't get put on sale for Rams fans because they could have a row of stewards between the fans but there would be no segregation in the concourse...

Quite feasibly but they play each other on the last day and 3rd place will probably be at stake. I don't see either side resting players for the playoffs if that's the case.

If you look at Bolton's last 2 games, they have had the better of possession, shots and shots on target. V Pompey 58%, 19 shots v 5, 6 on target v 1. V Shrewsbury 70%, 25 shots v 8, 13 on target v 3. That's 3 goals from 44 shots of which 19 were on target. Great inefficiency on the vinegar stroke... Is that their great weakness?

Lovely photo. Thanks Martin. All OK?

Nice to see young Kaitlyn Roocroft get the International Supporter's award, one I was fortunate enough to get in the 15/16 season.

He joined us on Jan 31st. His last game for them was Jan 1st. He hasn't been injured this season, his 2nd at Cardiff. That Jan 1st game was Cardiff's 29th of the season in all competitions. Ebou was in the matchday squad for their season's opener at L**ds. In those 29 games he had 5 starts, was subbed off on 3 of those occasions. He was subbed on 8 times. I disagree with @Srg. Ebou was fit enough from the start of the season. Why else would he have been in the squad? Season 1 at Cardiff ended in pre season when he suffered a clean tear of his pectoral muscle tendon, 10 minutes into his first pre season game for them. He was due for a return six months later but then picked up a knee injury which ruled him out for the rest of the season without making a senior first team appearance.

Including me. Nowhere did I post that the two played the same role. Technically, he's not in Idi's League. Physically, the reverse is true. It's only occasionally you'll get a DM who is also technically gifted. GT was one.

Adams, Gambian international. He's not an idiakez on the ball, far from it. However, he wins more ball back than Idi did. The lad's a ball winner and he then gives it to a ball player. On top of that, he's not exactly useless as his recent goal showed that he has good ball control.

The Popside Fanatics group held a funding thing to raise money for flags. 50 of them (flags, not the Fanatics) were put on seats in the South Stand last weekend, 25 were "liberated" post match. The idea is for the flags to remain "on site" and not to be taken home. They were paid for by donations from ordinary fans like yours truly. Both the Fanatics and I would greatly appreciate any flags that were inadvertently taken home being returned for the Carlisle game and then left in the South Stand post match for reuse next season. They did post in all the Rams Facebook pages that the flags should not be taken home, it seems not everybody read that.

They're blades Mucker. 'oars are dirty old women 😉

Way too soon to think about next season. We still don't KNOW which League we'll be in. More than half the squad is out of contract this summer. How anyone can say we won't this or can't that is way premature. The current squad and style probably won't work in the SBC. However, if we do go up you can expect 10 out and as many in and feasibly a change of style as PW has found out, to his cost on 2 occasions, what DOENS'T work in the SBC. Hopefully we'll have decent financial backing and be able to put together more of a footballing side capable of going wide and putting crosses in AND playing through the middle on the floor AND playing balls into the channels. The best teams can do all 3...

Him, Cash and Sibs are the only 3 left from the U18 Champions side (Bird's off in the summer). If we don't go up I expect Cash to go as well. I hope all 3 are with us next season.

I think the beeb was, and still is, unsure. Go to their results page and click on the game and you'll see the opener down as an OG. Scroll down into the match report and it says Wilson scored it. I said pre match that matching the midweek 1st half performance but with improved shooting would see us win. We didn't match it, we bettered it and kept it up all game. 3 goals, all from set pieces, and we won at a canter in the end. The O's managed 6 shots, none of them on target meaning JW had a quiet afternoon. Great performance from the crowd too. Here's to those lucky enough to have a ticket for Cambridge make lots of noise as usual. See y'all for the Carlisle game. It's back in our own hands. Keep calm. Keep focused. We'll be rate.
