Chellaston Ram

For now anyway 

About 280

He had a large squad at his disposal when he took over - they were in a false position when you compare it to the rest of the division - and then he was backed with expensive loan signings, free transfers of recent PL players and cash purchases like Surridge. In the end, it took a fluke goal at Wembley to get them promoted. And then he's been backed with a level of spending unprecedented amongst newly promoted clubs - check out the figures for yourself. A nomination for Manager of the Season is laughable. 

How can spending 200 million and still fighting relegation be classed as doing a good job ?

Bloke who lives round the corner wearing his new Forest shirt stopped his run to talk to me yesterday, saying “I thought of you the other day, this shirt cost me £60, absolute rip off, atrocious but it’s worth every penny just for that (points to the premier league badge on the sleeve), it’s the place to be just hope we stay there!” Today he walks past saying “ I shouldn’t have got so excited yesterday!!” ?, i told him we don’t mind league 1 “we hated it we were down there for 3 years” to which I responded well we won’t be down there that long.
For armchair fans (which makes up majority of red dogs), premier league is the place to be. It’s all about show and making banners to symbolise what amazing fans you are but as soon as it goes to s*** you don’t see them for miles or hear from them for days and weeks.
Of course I want Derby to be in the premier league but only because it’s the highest league we could be in and it will be one hell of a journey to get there, but it’s more important to me to feel a bond with my club and to the players. We don’t need the prem for atmosphere or a banner stating false platitudes, we get 27000 every week. I don’t think the fans players management and ownership have ever been this close in my lifetime and it feels special like something really positive is building. Last time I truly felt like that was 94/95 season just before bald Eagle came in, we missed out on playoffs but the new ground was announced along with our puma sponsorship and it just felt like things were being put in place. 
Forest fans at work were genuinely thinking they could beat Fulham and look at mid table. They’re not good enough. They’re in a false position, they’ve done well to win home games against their relegation rivals but apart from Everton they’re all gone now, they have a lot of difficult fixtures coming up and the table will then adjust to reflect their real position. They will be in a scrap with Everton and Leeds for the last relegation spot. Dyche will sort out Everton which means it will be Forest or Leeds. 

TBF I said pretty much the same the night you beat Malmo. 

I can’t believe they’ve £200 million yet rely on Sam Surridge as their main striker

We played well in possession but the difference in the teams was the quality in the final third

Me and a couple of mates got ambushed walking back from Euston station to St Pancras

Unfortunately most teams have got a minority of idiots

Can’t remember, my memory is going as well ?

Victoria street, opposite the old Debenhams 

I was too scared to go in

Ticket sales are still slow, I reckon we will be lucky to get 26k

This season is reminding of McClarens first spell, he took over mid season but couldn’t catch Leicester and Burnley. We were easily the third best team in the league but lost to QPR in the final. Let’s hope it’s not repeated again .

At least Bolton didn’t just put 10 men behind the ball and time waste all game unlike most teams at PP
