StockholmRam reacted to Caerphilly Ram in Reading v Derby match day thread.
Good post. It’s fair to criticise last nights performance, cause it was pants and it’s an opportunity missed to go top, albeit briefly. And there’s some fair observation and discussion about how our midfield is or isn’t functioning.
What I don’t get are the sweeping statements driven by personal opinion but presented as fact that we won’t make top 2, or we possibly aren’t good enough for the play offs, or the players are naughty tracksuit wearing yoofs. A bad performance last night, with a few questionable ones in recent weeks, potentially down to fatigue and missing players, who will return and bolster the squad before the season is out. We’ve made a new signing that should give us reason for optimism as he is an additional attacking outlet, should allow rotation and rest etc.
So yes last night was bad, yes a few performances lately have been dodgy, but there are still plenty of points to play for with players to return from injury, international duty, and potentially further new signings. It’s the complete lack of optimism that comes spewing forth from some quarters that gets me down. And yes of course I know people are entitled to their opinion, but if they can’t see any hope for the club and this season then what’s the point? Shall we just call it now? Chin up folks, we go again on Saturday.

Perfect is stretching it. I think they just expect us to have 1 shot on target in a league 1 match and not put in such abject performances when the players we have are better than the players most in the division have…

StockholmRam reacted to angieram in Corey Blackett-Taylor - Signed on Loan/Permanent in Summer
Welcome to Corey Blackett-Taylor.
I'm looking for a thread about whether he's a good signing in relation to his playing ability. Can anyone point me in the right direction, please?

Ian Hall goal scorer. Was he the former radio Derby guy from 90’s?

StockholmRam reacted to Eddie in Derby V Burton match day thread
From reading this thread, I have to assume that it was one of the worst performances ever by a Derby County side - yet we somehow fluked a win. Is that a fair assessment?
/still not well enough to attend in person - just in spirit.

StockholmRam got a reaction from Grumpy Git in Franz Beckenbauer
For me… Sir Franz and his team beating Dirty Leeds in the 1975 European Cup final is still my favourite result ever… even better that when we beat Benfica and Real Madrid.
I was lucky enough to have seen him play, incredibly for New York Cosmos in Giant Stadium in 1978. Carlos Alberto also played that night but sadly not Pele.
Charlie George played too. Opposition.

StockholmRam reacted to GB SPORTS in Franz Beckenbauer
My best Beckenbauer memory is when Bayern beat the Dirties in European Cup Final in 1975 at the Parc Des Prince in Paris.
The scarf twirlers still moan about that game to this very day.

Another childhood legend gone. Growing up in the 60's and 70's we should have disliked "The Kaiser", yet we loved and respected the best German player of his generation and arguably of all time.
RIP Franz, fondly remembered with Bobby Moore, Bobby Charlton and Pele. All greats and all gentlemen.

Someone alluded to this in last nights match thread and I think they're spot on. It's no coincidence that his passing has coincided with the unbeaten run we're on.
He's definitely having some influence from above. I wouldn't be surprised if he's convinced the good Lord to allow him to paint the pearly gates black and white. Keep up the good work B4.
Of course, as the initial poster said, @B4’s Sister starting the match day threads is also having a big influence too.

Thank you to everyone who was able to attend the funeral, give a final clap, or held Daniel in your thoughts today. It was a send off he would have been proud of. I could picture what his reactions would have been the day. He would definitely have approved, particularly of the buffet 😄
