YorkshireRam got a reaction from SKRam in Dwight Gayle - Signed until the end of the season
I'd give Gayle a 6 month deal. Solid backup and will probably still have a bit of class about him, also even if Collo stays fit and he barely features, he's got great experience for the younger lads to learn off.

The good news hinted at last night @MACKWORTHRAM?

YorkshireRam got a reaction from SKRam in James Collins
Sensationalism doesn't change the facts. I've not seen anyone saying anything daft about Collins, certainly not over-praising to the same extent he was vilified and overly-criticised before.
How many chances did he get against Cheltenham? 1... and he scored it. So from our most recent example, this argument falls flat on its face.
Yes, compared to Messi, he's distinctly mediocre as a footballer. But for the level we're at, and what he's giving to the club, he's been a star this season, and deserves the praise he's getting.

YorkshireRam got a reaction from Premier ram in Max Bird - flew the coop to Bristol City, loaned to us to end of season
£2m + Haydon Roberts and Harry Cornick on permanent deals 🤞

Who at any point has said he’s the “new Drogba?” It’s like you’re fighting an argument that isn’t there. Which over the top comments have there been?
All the positives I’ve seen anyone say is that he’s doing a good job for us this season, which meets the standards you’re describing.

YorkshireRam reacted to Day in James Collins
It’s interesting because in the Warne out topics you will find others argue till they are blue in the face that McGoldrick and Collins have bailed Warne out.
Yet here we are in another corner of the internet where it’s not the individuals but the team that’s inflating “bog standard” players stats.
Could it not be, Warne is a decent manager at this level, Collins is a decent striker and we have a decent team hence why we find ourselves at the top end of the table fighting for promotion.

YorkshireRam got a reaction from jono in James Collins
2018/19 Collins scored 25 goals at this level for Luton, Didzy's best season was likely 20/21 where he scored 8 in the PL, each goal there is worth 3/4 at this level.
It's a bizarrely reductionist argument to try and discredit individual achievement. Rather we should be grateful to have had 2 players that are capable of hitting 20+ league goals a season?

Would definitely prefer to keep Fornah, if it's between the two.

You really do have a strange habit of making even innocuous comments seem like you're trying to sneak an underhanded jibe in 😂

YorkshireRam got a reaction from FlyBritishMidland in January Reinforcements
I've read the highlighted line 5 or 6 times now and still can't make sense of it...?
Rosenior likely had more wiggle room financially due to the combined wage bill being so low. Now the squad is much fuller, if the business plan is tied to spending limits, more wages on the books means we're far closer to that limit, and therefore have less money to offer as potential wages to new signings. Hence finding it harder to do deals as the business plan is tighter now our overheads are much larger.

YorkshireRam got a reaction from angieram in Where do you think we'll finish this season?
I'm going to be positive and say 2nd. Performances have been faltering recently but we look more able of grinding out results. With players due back from injury, I think we're capable of going on another unbeaten run which will see us move into the automatic spots and hopefully stay there 🤞
