YouRams reacted to Andicis in Port Vale (A) Tues 24th Jan
That is the result of the season so far. That does such a huge amount for belief in the squad, knowing they can be behind in those circumstances and still win is massive. Games like that have tripped Derby up for years, the away games against ''lesser'' sides. Massive.

Anyone else foreseeing it coming down to the last game against Wednesday for an auto spot, repeat or revenge from us sending them down on the last game a few seasons ago.

Yep. Though I think Plymouth will start to slip and it'll be Derby and Wednesday in the autos playing for the title.

YouRams reacted to rammieib in They're playing football now, not hoofball.
One of my criticisms at the beginning when Warne came in is we all knew his style was direct and get the ball into the other half as fast as we can and try and win second balls and play from there. I think the team originally struggled with what that meant and how to execute it.
One of the key differences for me in this run is that Warne is allowing his defensive players to actually work the ball and pass it between us. It’s not as frequent as the LR style but it’s a definite shift from early Warne days.
We are constantly now in the 50-60% possession stat. Wildsmith gives a lot more short goal kicks and we definitely allow CF and EC more freedoms on the ball.
I for one am really enjoying it now because it isn’t hoofball for 90 minutes. A lot of our better goals come from the passing passages of play - Hourihane header today for instance was a nice move with the EC diagonal after some passing in the defence. If you look back over the recent goals since December a lot more are worked plays. Hourihane against Accrington, McGoldrick first goal against Forest Green. All were excellent team moves.
I feel that Warne now trusts them and he’s striking the correct balance between ball retention, long balls, direct balls into Collins and playing the triangles of play to create space. There is a decent mix in there so we are not too one dimensional.
Well done Warne and his team. This is starting to get fun.

YouRams reacted to Jourdan in Promotion rivals signings
I am quite relaxed about making new signings. January is always a difficult time to get a good deal over the line.
With the way we are playing, the run we’ve been on, and how the players have stepped up and dispelled the myth Warne would have to rip up the squad and start again, surely the less disruption and the less change the better.
Can we improve on the team? Yes. Is there a pressing need to? At this moment, no. We can compete with anyone in the division on our day and so far Warne has proven to be the shrewd appointment many suggested he would be.
We already have good (sometimes excellent) players for this level and where we lack something, Warne has found and will likely continue to find solutions within the squad.
We should stick with what we’ve got, unless a major player leaves and needs replacing or in the unlikely event there’s a deal that’s too good to walk away from.
Ultimately, team spirit, organisation, momentum and confidence is all with us - why rock the boat?

David Clowes you feckin genius. Had my doubts about Warne, but how wrong I was. The most dominant performance of the season and against one of the better sides in the league too. Made them look like proper plodders and yet another clean sheet too.

YouRams reacted to angieram in Jack Stretton - joined Stockport permanently
Dajuane Brown for under 18s, scored another two today v Stoke. An old-fashioned centre-forward, will suit Warne.
