Oakwood Ram

Please don’t tell us the result! 🙏🐏😂

Great work yet again with the match threads, these have been a different class over the last couple of months. I for one will miss these after next week. COYR - Hold your nerve and leave everything on the pitch for two more matches, we’ve got this.

I like Paul Warne and am desperate for him to succeed at DCFC. I like his style, his honesty and feel he has integrity and moral compass. However, serious questions to be asked following yesterdays performance which was too similar to previous performances: - why is there such a lack of creativity in our play when he has had such a long time with this squad? - why do we not impose ourselves on weaker opposition, especially at home? - why does it take us to concede a goal in order for us to display energy and desire? - why do we never have any runners beyond Collins, when our tactic is so often hitting the ball directly towards him in the air? Seriously, what are we achieving with this tactic without runners around or beyond him? - why do players not appear more motivated when you consider our position and the opportunity we have, especially in the earlier parts of each game when we are far too passive? My opinion is that if he and the coaching team can resolve the 5 questions above, we can and will make the automatic positions. If we continue not to, then the best we can hope for is a play off lottery, and I wouldn’t fancy our chances over two legs against anybody if the issues have still not been resolved. Quality coaching and leadership now required for the remainder of the season. 🐏

Will never forget the long summer days as well, with Euro 96 games the only distraction. What a year 1996 was pal 🐏

Absolutely brilliant these. I still think that being on the BBG pitch in 1996 post Palace match as a 14 year old with my dad was my greatest childhood memory. I never knew life could be so good on that day, still not sure I have ever experienced feelings like it since 🐏

ATG Vickers 6.5 - sound replacement but not as assured as Wildsmith which is to be expected as lacking game time. Still second choice keeper in my opinion Nelson 7 Bradley 6 Cashin 9 - MOTM for me, only player on the pitch who retrieved what looked like a couple of lost causes. A colossal performance Wilson 8.5 - I love this guy, strongest performer in the first half Bird 8.5 - Composed, hard working and two much needed assists Hourihane 7 Fornah 6 Forsyth 6 Elder 7 John-Jules 6 - Disappointing performance, hopefully not working too hard to avoid injury which could hamper his chances of a return move? Hopefully I’m wrong on this one as I feel he would be a major asset for the remainder of the season Barkhuizen 6.5 - flatters to deceive despite the late goal. Not showing the same work ethic as his teammates Mendez-Laing 8.5 - Strong performance, excellent taken goal, worked hard to get back and releases the pressure with lung busting runs which sometimes goes unnoticed. Our most influential player with the exception of Cashin Collins 8 - underrated. Absolute work horse who is contributing more quality and goals to the team. Hold up play also improving. Keep up the good work Collo. Thompson 7 - Very effective when introduced, he was going to be introduced a few minutes earlier just as they pulled a goal back. Determined and relentless, with underestimated power and technically impressive. Will have a big part to play for us this season. A big shout out to all players and coaching staff who took the time to have their photo taken with my lad as they arrived of the team coach, much appreciated 🐏

Made it over myself as well, very fitting tribute to a great man 🐏

Very cheeky photo as well, what a guy! 🐏

Just a thought, hopefully somebody close to the club can make it happen v Bristol Rovers. Rams shirt produced with ‘RIP B4’ on the back. It is shown on the scoreboard in either the 4th or 38th minute in the ground. A minute applause from fans whichever minute the family deem most appropriate. Shirt is signed by the squad post game and presented to his parents. I appreciate the club cannot always show this level of tribute following the passing of a fan, but B4 was a one off, and everything DCFC epitomises. He deserves a tribute such as this in my opinion, and one which will give him the send off he deserves 🐏

I know a lot of others have already commented on the joy that Kane Wilson seems to bring to the occasion. As a school teacher, he constantly reminds me of the kid in the playground who always wants the ball, always has a smile on his face and loves to make magic happen. It is as though he forgets he is performing in front of so many rams fans. Cherish this player whilst we are fortunate enough to have him folks, he is one of a kind 🐏

This is absolutely brilliant, hopefully his family will get the opportunity to see this and consider using it at his farewell. Fantastic job mate.

I have been viewing the DCFC rams forum for around 10 years. I have never needed to open a account, as I only care about checking what my fellow Rams family have to say, until now……… B4 - I have finally registered to this fine forum to pay tribute to you. I have met you a few times at away matches and have always revelled in the hundreds of posts that you wrote. You were an absolute inspiration and beacon of positivity, thank you for always improving my mood. I hope you find the best fish and chip shop up there pal. I also hope you can sprinkle some magic for the remainder of the season to see us to promotion, nobody deserves this more than you my friend. 🐏
