    Old Spalding Ram reacted to Ram-Alf in Sonny Bradley   
    sanc·ti·mo·ni·ous
    derogatory
    making a show of being morally superior to other people:
    I doubt the above very much.
    Posters have an opinion of a footballer a mature footballer at that, That for one reason or another lost his senses for a few seconds, He'll miss 3 games because of this.
    What should supporters do, Say or post?...nothing? oh that was a silly thing to do?, I'd have done the same? or just stick it to him for the stupid thing he did?
    I've no crystal ball but losing a player from his own stupidity when we're down to the bare bones for defenders and close to opening those bones to the marrow could and I say could as it's a possibility DCFC missing out on promotion and the circa £8m that could be banked.
    Waghorn and Adams missed a couple of sitters that could have cost us those 3 points...but they are still available to be picked Bradley isn't...let that sink in for a moment.
    Your response to the above would be something like...he knows he was wrong, He feels bad about it, He's let himself down the supporters and club down.
    PWs response would be similar to the "Pile On" I guess as described by some posters...but that's only a guess, They'll be no Mug or a picture on the Why Wall...or will there 😉 Bradley will be fined if there's no proof of his innocence, Some players will have the same feelings of said posters...and for my five Penarth worth it was a crass/stupid thing to do that could have a huge impact this season.
    This "Pile On" will be a Mole Hill compared the the Mountain of vitriol that will be spewed if we fail.

    Pride Park: Friday March 29th - 15.00 Kick Off
    Friday night we get a chance to eradicate the bad dream that was Northampton away, but I think we've ridden our luck a little longer than just the last game and we simply must deliver a performance, or we risk succumbing to the lottery that is the play-offs. It's a sobering prospect by any measure. As it stands, we remain masters of our own fate, but potentially only by a single point and GD. Suffice to say, we can ill afford any further slip ups, or the chasers will be on us. 
    On paper, this is a tougher game than the last one, with Blackpool having notched wins against Bolton, Peterborough and Shrewsbury as well as a draw against league leaders Pompey in their last 10 league games. Chief goal threat would be Jordan Rhodes who has notched 15 this season, with Jake Beesley and Karamoko Dembélé chipping in with 8 amd 7 respectively. Dembélé also has a very respectable 11 assists, with CJ Hamilton next best with 7 for the season to date. Keeping those two quiet might be key.
    Squad News: Injury report might perhaps be a better heading! With Nate now joining an ever-growing list of crocked players, it's safe to say that having had a pretty healthy squad a mere few weeks back, we're bang in trouble again on that front and we'll need to marshal resources in a clever and effective manner if we are to get anything from this game. We are told that the one good piece of news on this front currently is that Collo may play a part, but whilst the man's a Spartan, he'll surely not be sharp enough to start. 
    A last thought, until we have more news on who is actually fit enough to play, would be that while I want us to beat Blackpool, I do recall their kindness and solidarity during our troubled recent past. They're a proper club with a proper set of fans and I hope we make them as welcome at our place as they always seem to make us at theirs. 
    May the best team win, but may that team be Derby, please!

    Thought we had a good twenty minutes. pass and move, balls into feet, give & go, looked sharp, one twos, plenty of movement, anyway ………then they all went in, pulled up their socks, came out again, the ref blew his whistle to kick off and that was that! 👍😁

    This is what pisses me off, We know players aren't machines and produce top performances game after game, But if the majority "don't turn up" you're up sh!t creek without a paddle.
    Northampton have conceded 60 goals let that sink in for a second...and we couldn't stick one in the net, I believe there was enough out there from the starting 11 to get at least a point today.
    Not good enough from all who were involved today, A big attitude change needed on Friday or it's the play offs...and in them I'm not confident 😬

    Edward was wearing black Adidas Kaiser 5’s that day; Jake Buxton said to Edward in the dressing room pre-match “Thems proper boots yeuth”. I still have them.

    Old Spalding Ram got a reaction from Premier ram in How would YOU set us up currently?   
    3-4-3…….the back three pick themselves for the rest of the season after yesterday!
     
    Ward, Wilson, Sibley & Elder………Wilson & Sibley for me at wing back.
    Adams and one other ………..I’d go with Smith, seems in decent form.
    Mendez has got to play wide, Barks if fit or Blackett-Taylor 
    Up front……………….whoever’s off the treatment table first.
    We’ve got seven matches left, three against the current worst performing teams in this league.
    Blackpool, might be tricky, Orient at home they’ve got nothing to play for, just a day out for their fans.  Pompey and Wycombe away, no problem.
    Im predicting the promotion party at Cambridge, champions celebration against Carlisle.
    Remember you read it here first………….yesterday was massive. 👍😁
