    Returning ram got a reaction from Rammy03 in 24/25 Sky TV Coverage   
    No it won't, every year someone says it will, yet attendances are rarely impacted. People enjoy going to games, it's often about the experience something you can't get on TV.
    People moan about sky, but the money it pumps into the game is why we have the strongest leagues in the world, the best stadiums, the best league structure and a national team full of rising talent. I will follow the Rams everywhere, but still have sky, because simply put, I enjoy watching football, they haven't ruined the game, just changed it.

    Returning ram got a reaction from Archied in How impressive is PW as a coach?   
    Clowes always said "competitive" budget", he never once to my knowledge said there was a lot of money available for transfer fees, nor did he say we had the highest in the league.
    The EFL lifted restrictions for us to spend money, however we still had to stay within the budget agreed and although there was money available as confirmed by PW as being left over from the summer budget, we wasn't allowed to spend that on a permanent deal, instead we had to loan a player in to get around the agreed plan.
    Therefore I can only assume (guess) that it wasn't that easy for the club to bring in permanent deals using a transfer fee regardless of money being available. 
     
    No one knows for definite what his budget was, for wages or transfer fees, they are only guessing. However I don't think PW has once moaned about it and not only that but delivered a record points total, record games won away and was it goals scored as well 😏
    Irony is that I have seen on social media today a lot of Derby fans saying LR sacking was harsh as although he has the budget not the time, the same ones wanting PW gone after 2 months of the season 😏

    Its condescending to tell people they are making erroneous comments, without actually knowing the facts yourself, simple as that.
    Clearly we will be up there with the wage bill but to state as fact that it is the highest is having people on because the information is not available on the public domain for either ourselves or the other teams in the league.

    Regardless of budgets, we will go down as our best manager in history in terms of points return and our most successful since Billy D.
     
    Succeeded where the lines of SM and co failed, give me another season of his football (which I enjoyed) and a promotion over anything served up on all of Mels tenure. 
    Also one of very few that didn't bottle it going into the final part of the season, didn't panic like those before and deserves all the plaudits for doing so.

    Comparing him to a manager from 35 years ago just backs up my post 😊
    I said he was the most successful in points return, I think he'll take a comparison against Arthur though and a testament to what he has achieved 🥳

    Get out,it's merely an excuse for the whingers to briefly crawl out of their boxes after being firmly placed in them after promotion.
    I swear some people are genuinely upset that warne achieved it with us.

    Just come back on to congratulate PW, records broken and another promotion on his already impressive CV. 

    I will be disappearing again, although will keep an eye on transfer forum and don't worry @LeedsCityRam, our bet still stands and I will happily pay up if I lose.
    It may have been a minority, however the constant sniping at everything PW did, took the enjoyment out of the forum for me, from hampering the academy, not having the ability to get players in, PW football etc...he only had to lose one game and they were endless and imo unsubstantiated. I do appreciate though, it's all about opinions, so fair enough.
    I will come back though when he leads us to the PL 🥳

    The comparative size of our budget might be an interesting point that will come up in future years (if not sooner ;)). Mel is pilloried for splashing cash around, but isn't that what Clowes did on a lesser level, he gambled on a 'promotion expert' and it just paid off. 
    And all of you waiting to jump in and have a go don't bother btw. That's my opinion and if you have different one good for you, state it as your own and leave me out of it!

    Returning ram reacted to jono in Can anyone actually name a single improvement Warne has done since arriving?   
    I don’t want to start a squabble at such a happy time but “crap and going nowhere” illustrates this misplaced demand for instant success. It’s something that rarely happens. I’d say, that at that time we looked lacklustre, disjointed, not working in harmony or being better than the sum of our parts (which is what a team game needs) Warne was new at the time, had inherited players and little room to buy. He needed time to build that group in to team. He needed to Instill his culture and methods. That took time.  He succeeded.
    That is why I get so narky when the knives come out after a couple of bad results. I am going to say the same next season when we are 15th in the table  just had a bore draw at home against a lower ranked side. Patience.

    Chelsea lost with a younger team, that's the irony.
     
    Bradley who impresses, spent time on loan, Clark was signed for 1.5 million, McDonnell was signed from Sunderland academy. All of this is ignored though and just goes to highlight the agenda against PW by some.

    For me Quantum couldn't be held accountable in the first instance, those saying they knew from the beginning should work in an FI, they'd make a fortune 🤨
    The reality is though, it was the time delay that Quantum should have acted on, however I guess they were is so deep they just kept hoping the funds would appear.

    We are winning without him, you think he is good enough to lead the attack for Derby then fair enough, but he isn't, far from it.
     
    Let's play a kid just to keep a youngster who other clubs are sniffing around, he might be ready but who needs promotion anyway. I think looking at Cashin or Bird shows if you are good enough there are opportunities. 
     
    I don't think I have ever not engaged with anyone on football before, however your tunnel vision with regards to PW seems to have resulted in posts that are just bashing him for the sake of it, so I'll leave you to it from now on 👍
