RAM1966

Present from my husband 💗

He bought the club as he loves DCFC as much as we do. 

Devastating news, RIP B4, as your pain slips away, your family and friends begins.
My thoughts are with everyone close to him....

Just come on to catch up on the afternoon's "Great day at the office", and was immediately hit with this thunderbolt!
Utterly gutted!  😢
Yes, he's wound me up in the past, on occasion.  Sometimes I've had a nibble at him.  Sometimes I've bit my tongue and said nowt.
But oh so much more than that, his total and utter positivity was never disregarded, and his loyalty to, and passion for, DCFC was never... ever... doubted.
I'm not ashamed to say, He's been... and will remain for eternity... more of a Ram than I'll ever be.  🐏
 
Such devastating news does indeed put everything into perspective. 
Today's game comes a distant second behind this... even to the point that I'm really not in the mood any more, for a catch up on the matchday thread... but do you know what... today was precisely the sort of performance and result that would have delighted him... and just what he would normally have predicted with his blind, unwavering faith.  Despite my mood, I'm gonna read the lot... and read every single word in his memory... with a raised glass in hand! 🍻
I hope you were watching from above, B4, (Of course you were... silly me!) and I hope it put a massive grin on your face... and a spring in your step, now you are finally free at last, from your physical pains.
Feel free to bellow through the clouds "I told you so"!   😁
I'm sure many of us will mark your gut-wrenching passing in any number of ways in the coming matches... be that privately and/or publicly, and it is no less than you deserve.
I won't hesitate to twirl my scraver in your honour at future games, and my DCFC flange will forever be at half mast.  
Sleep well, dear Buddy.  Up The Rams.  See you at the promotion party.

Gutted…
He will leave a legacy via his contributions to this forum that will not be forgotten.
Fitting that we did the business today.

Such tragic news.  Stand tall, and pain free, in afterlife. You Ram.

If you make a bad business decision, you reverse it.  If he sacks Warne he can pay it over the length of the contract, effectively placing him on Gardening Leave....

100% on the money.   
Club is worth £30m, Clowes was generous to save us, none of the other party's were offering more at the time he bought.
With regards to the sale of the club or additional investment its a matter for DC himself to consider....
 

He took us to Wembley, think he would do it again.....

This is a Pro Warne thread, and I’m in.
If you don’t like him or his football or whatever he wears then get out of this thread and choose one of the many negative threads about him to discuss your views or carry on regardless.
So I can hang out with @Jourdan who used to be such a negative poster in the past but is a ray of sunshine these days and he wears it very well and realises a season of football is like the Grand National and our beloved team are still positioned well in the league to have a successful season and I’m right behind all the staff and players at Derby County.
Up The Rams.
ps look at Birmingham City fans already attacking Rooney, football funny old game!…..

He took us to Wembley, think he would do it again.....

You could well be right, that decision though is DCs.
You should never hope your team lose, as pleased as I was on Tues with the win, I knew we would return to watching the dire crap he's been serving up. 
Apart from the first 15 mins in the second half, that has to be one of the poorest performances under his stewardship yesterday.
Its time he showed some minerals, realise the players do not want him, he clearly struggles to motivate them.  Time he resigned and walked away with a modest pay off rather than 2 1/2 years of his contract.

The situation is so difficult.
It’s a stick or twist situation now. 
 
I think the ship has almost sailed.
Yesterday the team looked rudderless 

It was humour....
I agree with most of what you say.
Wash and Bradley are woeful in my opinion.  I think you can expect errors at this level though.
The problem is the style of the football.  Stevie Mac would do something with his squad, deffo missing a decent striker, not sure why that was not addressed though, don't hit the onion bag, you don't win games, its simple...

I had no interest in either....warne wasn't even on my radar and roseniors football bored me to death and appeared to be completely ineffectual.
It's a shame that Mac had just gone to Man utd as I really do think that as a long term manager and coach he would still have been the perfect fit.

I’m Warne Out (sounds like an AA meeting!)
I don’t believe David will sack him and his merry entourage whilst there is still an outside chance of the play offs.
David knows the autos are probably gone now. It would take a huge turnaround in performances and results.
The problem will come in January, if we still have a chance, would David trust him with any sort of transfer budget and would David veto selling of any our younger players such as bird, cashin. If not we could end up with a team full of aging journeymen playing Div 3 style football.
I want success for DCFC, but also want a team of players and coaches that I can believe in and have more passion about than I do right now.

Cant blame Clowes.
We're all football fans. We all like to think we know about football, but really we all know absolutely nothing about the innerworkings of a football club. We all really probably dont know that much about the game in general
The man has saved the club & been thrown in at the deep end. Give any of us a bit of money to buy the club & we'd all make mistakes. 
Id like to see the club rebuilt, the academy etc, id like to see a good young team, trying to play football the right way. If someone comes in with the vision, then you dont mind losing if you can see what the long term aim is & it trying to be implemented 
 

He is a hero and always will be but your post implies he could make mistake after mistake in his decision making without any criticism, apologies if I’ve got the wrong end of the stick 😊

dc stepped up and saved derby county,thanks david,but what for?is it to get us back to better times,which i had hoped for,or is it just to exist in the lower leagues for the foreseeable future.if its the first reason warne needs to go asap,if warne stays its obviously the second reason,and the club and suport will dwindle away.my wish was for dc to get us back to the champ as soon as possible,ie.no later than may,and look for further investment for a push to the prem,but thats looking less likely by the day.if dc has any ambition for the club,he needs to push the button on warne now while we still have a sniff of promotion

I’m hoping she’s packed his sandwich’s because he has a full day of interviews.
