    'Enjoyed' all your posting about the financial stuff for the last 18months..and previously your academy insights. Its  really good to see your other posting is every bit as informed. Best poster on here, talk lots of (non knee-jerk) sense.

    NottsRam77 reacted to Cumbrian in Match Thread: Rams vs Leicester (Pride Park, today 1pm)   
    They did. Leicester had a lot of injuries too, their first choice back four were all injured for long periods, so the likes of Thomas, Soyuncu and Amartey played a lot last season. But their first choice back four is Ricardo, Evans, Fofana and Justin. Vardy was rested regularly, and had injuries, so Daka and Iheanacho played a lot. 
    The team that played at Derby today are all experienced Prem players (and most of them play for their national team), apart from the goalkeeper, and would probably get into most lower half Prem teams.

    GOAL - MENDEZ-LAING!
    Excellent pass from Roberts into McGoldrick, who in truth should have scored - but a wonderful curling finish from NML.

    Never mind the width of the pitch.
    Never mind how we're playing.
    Never mind how the new players are fitting in.

    So Knight at right back? 4-4-2 or 4-2-3-1 with McGoldrick as the 10? Exciting to be back analysing starting lineups when we were so close to oblivion ?

    NottsRam77 got a reaction from Alty_Ram in Wiil you be disappointed if we finish outside the top 2???   
    And so it begins 
    didnt take long for that derby county level of expectation / entitlement to re eatablish itself
    not even a month out of administration
    some people are in for a rude awaken
    last time we made such wholesale changes to our side (allbeit in different circumstance) was paul jewell in the summer after our relegation from the prem to try and change the loosing mentality 
    how did that pan out ??

    I think whoever plays full back I trust Liam to get it right. After all he played his entire career at full back (mostly right but covered both flanks) so I think he knows the position. Also in his year as a sky sports pundit was often the one to highlight our failings in this area under Lampard particularly number of goals conceded through not stopping crosses for which I think we led the way that season in the championship, though that was in part to how Lampard set up.

    NottsRam77 reacted to brady1993 in Max Bird   
    Of all the players I'd fight to keep it would be Bird. If not only because he's but because he's way better than we are currently paying and I've a feeling his transfer value has a decent room to grow especially if he plays in a functional team/club.

    Yes to all of that. I found it particularly tough to deal with as the timing mirrored my dads sudden decline with dementia. The day we went into admin was the first "come now please" urgent call from my mum. Derby was mine and dad's thing together and unbelievably bad Derby news usually coincided with bad dementia days. Dad is now stable, settled and as happy as he will be in lovely residential care right near us and he still loves to chat Derby although often muddled. He has told the care staff some horrendous tall stories about it all! Attendance obviously reduced a lot last year in the circumstances (hence my total annoyance at those making comments about part-time fans - just count your blessings you can attend when you want) but was so happy to get season tickets on the first day of sale. Really excited about the season ahead.

    Just to clarify, I never once accused B4 of being racist or derogatory towards the player. 
     
    I merely stated that there could have been another way to identify him other than his skin colour.  I have since replied to B4 to acknowledge that he did not mean to cause offence and moved on. 
     
    I suggest the people who seem outraged at my comment to also do the same.

    NottsRam77 reacted to RoyMac5 in Recruitment, make do and mend!   
    "It wasn't me who scouted him (Oduroh), but somebody at the club I had mentioned in my pre-match press conference last week," he said. "We don't have a recruitment team at the moment. Every club has around 10 to 15 people working in a recruitment team, but because of what has happened at the club we haven't had one.
    "Pete Shuttleworth, who is the club analyst, has probably spent 24 hours a day scouring not just this country but the continent. As an analyst, has gone above and beyond to help this football club. It's the same with Jon Howard. It's a collaboration and we are all working beyond our roles but that's what this club deserves and how it has to continue moving forward."
