I wouldn't say he was lazy - more sluggish, not surprising given the length of his lay off.

My take on today, yes we deserved to win, didn’t play that well but who cares at this stage of the season.
Ref was very picky and some of the offsides looked debatable 🤔
Thought Warne got team selection bang on, glad to see Smith start ahead of Hourihane.
CBT, did ok but still needs to work a lot harder for me and probably for Warne, but still could be a match winner for us. He so reminds me of Mendez Laing when he first arrived 
Wilson and Ward down the right hand side, I believe this can work and both did ok today, Ward is an unbelievable crosser of the ball, if only wede got Gayle fit to get on the end of em.
Washington looked lively but not match fit, but still a better option than Waggy
All in all 3 points with most of the others around us slipping up, so a good day at the office 👌

Another great atmosphere at PP, rocking all around the whole stadium, great goal to win it from Adams, starting 11 spot on, subs also spot on, my man of the match is my player of the season so far Curtis Nelson, thankyou DCFC for making my easter a great one. Once A Ram Always A Ram. 

I believe @MackworthRamIsGod too. He doesn't seem the type to make something up like that. I know we've entered the make or break time of the season but his wife has taken it too literally. 

Hang it in the Louvre

Today is the first day I started to believe promotion might be possible, so I have given myself a good slap and come up with many scenarios by which we can blow it. We can already see from todays results how good Cambridge and Carlisle are, for example, so we will surely lose our last two games. Not to mention very tricky games at Portsmouth and Wycombe. I have now successfully re-convinced myself that we have no chance.

It’s not Good Friday, it’s great Friday

Wilson has been top class these last 5 mins. Kept the ball up the other end.

These officials are absolute pony, so many soft and unnecessary decisions 

Ah, I wish we had two Nelsons. He's so good.

Attendance 30089. Not bad in the third tier against Blackpool. What a club! COYR’s🐏

The ram of god.

Some would say it’s not a great day to reintroduce JC, Good Friday

That was such a well taken goal. Seeing it from the different angles just shows how well struck it was.
I absolutely love Adams as a player. 🤌💋

A question at the fans forum was raised, asking Buxton and Hale if they think the U18/21 players ahold have been given more of an opportunity this season. The response being "they haven't done enough to convince Warne". They also stated Thomspon not being a top performer in the U21s, but stepping up seamlessly under Rooney.
None have played more than Robinson, who has only got 90 minutes vs a Wolves U21 side and hasn't played in any other game. The only player to feature in the League (Brown) has only got 13 minutes, I would be extremely surprised to see someone getting a chance this season.
Take that Wolves U21 game away, then you really see how willing Warne is to using them: Brown (30 mins), Radcliffe (11 mins) Weston (6 mins) and Fapetu (2 mins). It's pathetic.
They could have had a meaningful amount of minutes earlier in the season, even against the likes of Crewe or Bradford in Cup competitions, or when 2 goals up against Carlisle, Leyton Orient, and Bristol Rovers. If they were, we'd now have a better idea of whether they could step in for a couple of games. Even if they weren't ready, using them in more games would have helped keep our older players fresher, and potentially injury free.

Played a massive part in that last-gasp winner at Port Vale last season- one of the great goals in terms of the atmosphere etc. So wish him well 👍

After such a huge win last weekend PLEASE Derby can we not bottle it in this game. Please, just for once, can we actually see the job through and make it easy for ourselves.
This is exactly the sort of game we’ve had many times this season - a chance to really put the pressure on the teams around us when they’re not playing. And every time, it feels like, we’ve f***** it up with a pathetic half-arsed performance. It’s time for this team to get a grip, work like they’ve never worked before, and put Northampton to the sword. Show that strong character and personality, and show that they can see the job through.
We’ve bottled it wayyyy too many times from this sort of position in my lifetime. PLEASE Derby let’s make this season different and see it over the line. Do it for f****** B4! COME ON YOU f****** RAMS 

It’s a huge topic and there will be many pages devoted to it all over the place. One thought (sorry this is off topic ) I honestly think there’s some mileage to be had in making loans dependant on PL clubs paying all wages and accepting all risks. After all its training their players, why should money go back to the PL when the EFL clubs are effectively providing training for nothing ? 
 
Back to Joe. Everyone makes mistakes but Joe makes fewer than most and has proved to be an excellent keeper. Hope he stays. He’s not Shilton or Poom but he’s earned his No 1 spot to my mind.

Firmly on the bench for me not matter what system we play. He's a back up at this stage. it was so noticeable Saturday just how invisible he was, and told such a story that Warne still took him off despite already having brought on Smith earlier and having to sub off Ward and Barkhuizen so early.

Yeah but sometimes the next one along is someone like Roos or Hamer.  Think we are exceptionally lucky with the two keepers we have and would want to keep them both.

Ahead of his move to Bristol City, I thought it would be interesting to note that Bird has not played in 10 games this season and we’ve won 8, drawn 1 (Portsmouth) and lost 1 (Bolton). 

His legs have gone, so its a gamble nowadays whether what he can still bring to the team outweighs his lack of mobility, particularly when he is in a two-man midfield. It was clear that he wasn't offering enough on Saturday. My only complaint is why Thommo doesn't feature more, as he helped turn the match around on Saturday, and should be starting ahead of Hourihane.
 

Who said it didn't? That's right YOU did.
Why do you feel the need to be a keyboard warrier just because I don't rate Paul Warne? 
Go bother someone else, cos I'm too busy for your crap.

True.
I want to see us win something again! #COYR

Thanks. Yeah lots of the football has been awful, that's true. 👍
