    Well one game every now and then would be nice.

    I’d honestly love to see what others are seeing when they defend this stuff. 
     
    Football is garbage and when the results eventually turn all you’re left with is awful football.

    Why Oh why do I keep doing this to myself?

    I keep thinking to myself that, surely Derby can't be that bad, the next game will be different.
    And, sure enough, I am sat at home, I have paid my tenner to the club to watch online, a cup of tea in hand and it is dire.
    I don't care what Warne apologists say, the football is terrible, terrible, terrible...

    We've just made Charlton look like peak Real Madrid, although, fair play to them, they have discovered a little hack that I wish we knew, it's called passing the ball.
    This is depressing sh!t.

    Russell Ram reacted to Ewetube in B4 - for ever a Ram 🐏   
    I don't post on here too often nowadays, but I'm always reading and keeping up to date. I was totally stunned and saddened to see this topic.
    I've always read B4's posts and admired his loyalty, positivity and dedication to his beloved Rams.
    I will truly miss him on here. He has set an example to us all to live our lives to the fullest extent possible whatever challenges we face.

    What terrible news. B4 was a shining light of positivity in a forum of grumpy gits like me. Condolences to all his family and friends.

    Such a poor 2nd half, did we even have a shot? Why not go for it more at 1-1, subs were too late as well.
    1st goal we had 4 back vs 1 and still didnt mark him
    2nd goal, poor pass from Forysth for the 2000th time tonight, Bird leaving his man free then Byrne giving Gray the freedom of Pride Park to control & shoot.
    Forsyth was awful yet again, time to give Williams a chance whilst Buchanan is out. Ravel offered next to nothing. Bird had a stinker & struggled to find a man in a Derby shirt most of the night, 1st goal came from his poor pass. Tommo been decent in the first 2 games but thought tonight alot of his passes were backwards when he could have gone forwards.

    We lack quality all over. We have average to poor attacking fullbacks, no creativity in midfield, no quality wide players and no talisman upfront. We could have Lewandowski as our striker and we’d still be among the lowest scorers in the league.
    We were miles off QPR in terms of movement, passing quality and breaking lines during that second half.

    Russell Ram reacted to MACKWORTHRAM in Let's make Sunday "Duck the EFL day".   
    There's only one person to blame for all of this, one..
    He's lied to us, conned us and left us high and dry.
    The EFL are applying rules that are in place for every single club. 
    We've lost more than we should. 
    Morris tried to flount the rules, failed and left us.
    Putting us in administration was the final nail.
    But if you wanna sing F the EFL for applying punishments to us for breaking rules that we knew were there and knew what the punishment would be then go ahead.

    No let’s not. Sky will mute it anyway and it can only antagonise ahead of the decision on penalties. When will people realise the EFL, although inept are not the people responsible for our plight.

    Let's be honest we're down. We all know it.
    Our only hope is to get points back with the appeal, a new owner and a few new players in January.
    Tonight was a shambles. Bar hitting the bar at the end, I never once felt like we were going to score at all.
    Quite a few times we've got full backs in space overlapping and someone decides to have a shot from 25-30 yards instead.
    Morrison did it twice, with Byrne in acres of space down the right.
    Sibley when he can on. Had Ebosele and Buchanan in acres and decide to shoot.
    Morrison doesn't offer us anything at all. Spends most the game playing as the third centre half. Suspended on Saturday and I think we'll play better without him.
    Anybody notice captain Tom today? Said it a hundred times. Goes missing far too often. 
    The defending for that second goal was a complete disgrace and we deserved to lose that game based on that alone.

    Barnsley are a very poor team. We allowed them to look pretty decent for too much of that game. Really, really disappointed with the performance and result.

    The administrators really need to work their magic now with the appeal as we're going to struggle to stay up on this evidence even without any points deductions

    As disappointing as that is, it isn't luck, Buchanan should score. Just gutting really. I really expected better tonight. I really hope we don't descend into the form we were in back end of last year but it is very concerning at the moment.

    Russell Ram reacted to Day in Tickets for Huddersfield Match   
    Although 2021/22 Season Tickets have not yet been made available, the club is finalising matchday logistics following the UK Government’s recent lifting of lockdown restrictions and expects Season Tickets to go on sale within the next 7-14 days. A detailed update will be issued in due course.

    Russell Ram reacted to Ambitious in The current situation   
    I've been going over it in my head. 
    We are a Championship club going into the 2021/22 season. We have now confirmed that fact, also we know the ramifications from our amortisation has largely been a £100k fine. We now have to input our new figures with two variations to amortisation allowed. We technically made a £8m loss between 2014-2017 thanks to the stadium sale, therefore I would suspect that we will fall below the P&S regulations and receive no point deduction. I struggle to see how kicking the can down the road can incur an addition north of £31m in losses - especially based on an accounting principle. It will be worse for the three years in question, but ultimately that will help our situation against FFP between 2017-2021. Although, god knows what the current situation entails with regards to the EFL and that mess due to COVID. It seems every man and his dog is under some sort of soft embargo. 
    I'd imagine that potential new owners will now be willing to progress matters, which obviously will help our situation - if there is actually anyone waiting in the wings. I'm not entirely sure on Mel's situation, although financially it doesn't look great for either him or us. I know he's keeping the club going and will continue to do so, but I can't imagine that he is going to be too willing to start another rebuild. I don't think he's ever had the correct system in place to achieve success, in hindsight, so any more money he spends trusting the same people will likely lead to the same results. 
    The team as it stands will be amongst the worst in the Championship, if not THE worst in the Championship. Rooney & the coaching staff really haven't proven anything to suggest they aren't the worst set up in the league. Along with our terrible recruiting, it's not the best situation. We really need someone to come in and change the entire culture of the club. I genuinely can't think of ANY department in the entire club that couldn't do with improvement - I bet even the canteen lady makes a poo brew! 
    The overall achievement should always be to become and sustain a Premier League position. At the moment, we've had to regress and our achievement is to remain and sustain a Championship club. I have no optimism above that going into next season.
