    Carl Sagan reacted to Andicis in Paul Warne   
    A good example is that Derby should have sacked Billy Davies when they were promoted last time. They didn't and it was a mistake. Warne is obviously not the same basket case, the overarching point though is that a manager being right for the situation we are in now doesn't mean they will be moving forwards.

    I’m still of the opinion that if we appointed a different manager we’d have been promoted last season.

    For those who want to see the whole table since that Stevenage match. 
     
    Comfortably the best side in the division based on points won since that match.

    The opposite has been the case and by a long way, Wycombe was the 8th game we've scored less than we should have and we've scored more in 19(!)
    Creativity is the area we've lacked compared to others -maybe down to conservative tactics not quality- rather than taking the chances.

    They just make it up as they go along. I don't support Leicester breaking the rules but it's just clear to me that EFL is run by a cabal of club directors and go after clubs base on what they feel is right.
    We need a regulator and proper process.

    After yesterday's results:
    Bolton 1 Portsmouth 1 RAMS 3 Orient 0 Oxford 5 Peterborough 0 we now have 

    Bolton play their game in hand on Tuesday at home to Shrewsbury, with Peterborough at home to Fleetwood the same night. You'd expect them both to win, but if Peterborough don't and if Bolton lose, a win for us on Saturday would secure promotion.

    Been away for ever and find no one has updated this thread. After today's win against Orient and the other results, we can't finish lower than 4th. Come on you Rams!

    Carl Sagan got a reaction from RoyMac5 in Sibley too good!   
    I find posts like this just weird. One of Sibley's many strengths is his ability to run with the ball at his feet, at speed, leaving midfielders of defenders in his wake. He's absolutely no slouch. We are a team whose instructions are to bypass central midfield and play the ball wide at the earliest possible opportunity. If we were prepared to vary our approach and played Sibbo in midfield, then we'd have the threat from the wings and also the threat from the centre.

    Carl Sagan reacted to MaltRam in Where do you think we'll finish this season?   
    We got ahead of ourselves (well, I did) ahead of Northampton and again against Wycombe.
    I'm going to focus wholly on Cambridge all week. If we f*** that up, little hope of coming back again, IMO.
    It's well within our capability to stick a rank performance in and come out without the win.

    Carl Sagan reacted to BramcoteRam84 in Where do you think we'll finish this season?   
    Not quite yet but almost. I’m hoping Bolton chuck in a loss on Tuesday and we beat Cambridge to get promoted but as long as it’s in our hands last day we’ll get promoted. 
    Slightly controversial but if we did get promoted, do you think there would be an open top bus parade and would you want a parade? Did we have one in the 80s for 3rd division promotion? Part of me thinks yes we should, the club was in ruins nearly extinct so we should celebrate coming back from the brink, but then the other part of me thinks we should never be at this level and this promotion shouldn’t be celebrated as an achievement alongside our others.

    Carl Sagan got a reaction from angieram in Points Deduction, Who's Next And When Will It Stop?   
    Meanwhile, the EFL tried to impose a Premier-league-mandated points deduction on Leicester. Leicester said, hold on, there's nothing in your rules that allows you to do this, and took out an injunction to stop it. The EFL said, "oh yes of course you're right" and withdrew the deduction.
    My conclusion is that the EFL doesn't know its own rules and if we'd had the wherewithal to be able to contest their outrageous behaviour against us, we'd have won as well.

    Carl Sagan reacted to RoyMac5 in Sibley too good!   
    He didn't look like you suggest yesterday - he's not had lots of opportunity to show how he can play forward. After all who'd have thought he'd make a fullback. He hasn't hit the 'heights' because the club has sunk like a stone. He's all of 22? How old is Wilson etc. He's nowhere near the finished article but even so looks a threat when played other than as a defensive player.

    LWB wastes his best asset which is his goal-scoring ability. He’s a midfielder or front man, he could easily do CBTs role. His deadball ability and crossing is better than we’ve seen from many in the squad.
