    mrdave85 got a reaction from Ramrob in B4 - for ever a Ram 🐏   
    I never met B4 in person, and I was/am not the most active poster here, but I could tell his posts without checking the user everytime and everytime they were a breath of fresh air.
     
    My thoughts go to all of his friends and family. RIP ❤️

    A 3-0 win. Nothing to moan about. Going to be a quiet evening. May as well close the thread now.

    Perhaps he still will. And the rest of your post perhaps shows just how hard he's finding the job. I don't disagree with your post but I still find our current situation sad for PW, the players and the fans.

    This might be because it’s 3:30am, & I’ve watched the goals after being woken up by the stormy weather…
    but do the subdued goal celebrations not sit right with anyone else? Is it always like that?
    I’m not suggesting every goal should be celebrated like a cup winning goal, but the half-arsed high fives & slaps on the back just seemed… eh

    As someone who would go to war for Jake Buxton - I'm delighted for him. He did really well with the U18s last season in fairness - the growth following his appointment and during the season was significant.

    My bad. Still seems a bit throwing toys out of pram for me.

    No enthusiasm after our signings so far?! 

    Glorious post. Almost hope we stay down another year for more of these beauties.

    Warne said a couple of weeks ago in an interview that he will likely have to go over the 32 year bracket to find a goal scorer

    What looked like a great window is about to become another disappointing one. 
    No enthusiasm for the season now. Another year in league one.
    Bird, Cashin will be off next year to play for someone more ambitious like Millwall or Plymouth or maybe there’ll be off in January when they  realise we’re not going to make the playoffs again.

    "Why have we signed Washington, he doesn't score goals. We need a goal scorer"
    Get linked with a 1 in 2 striker with nearly 250 career goals who is widely regarded as a goal scorer.
    "Yeah not him"

    Finding a striker nobody's heard of is easy - finding one who would score regularly in L1 not so.

    We're in League One with next to to money whatsoever.
    There's absolutely nothing out there in the free agent market.
    This bloke has scored just over 200 goals in just over 400 games and some of us are saying no.
    I'm intrigued as to realistically you'd want us to sign? Or would fit in a wage budget? 
    I'm not saying he's a world beater or I'd be excited. But it's league one. We are where we are. Personally think he could comfortably score between 10-15 goals at this level.
    Also Knight hasn't even been gone a week yet and some people are panicking that we've not replaced him.

    Sorry if not exactly the right place, but why are some of the opinion that winning the league is “no hard task”? League 1 is a tough league and if we start showing up expecting to have won the match before a ball is kicked it will show us up.
    It’s professional football, yes we’re used to being the league above and pushing for the top flight, but we don’t have a squad of that calibre currently, nor is the club in a position it once was to attract players of a certain quality.
     
    Shouldn’t these expectations be tempered with a little bit of realism of where DCFC is now?
