Derby blood

I really hope this is BS, as how could a so call Derby fan do this to the club he loves, but i will wait if it becomes fact before i really let rip about our owner, time for a wine to calm me down. 

199 tickets left, will get more as well, so all who want to go will get a ticket no probs, got my, as i love an away trip to south yorkshire, will be in the sheffield tap at opening time, having a good few ales before the match, hope we can bring home the 3 points, then i will not give a poo how much i have paid lol

Great performance from Kelle, tonight, he has all the quality's to be a top keeper, he just needs to believe in himself, and tonight should have done his confidence a world of good, he was even coming for crosses tonight and winning it everytime, well done tonight Roos, u got the Rams a very hard fought point, man of the match for me tonight. 

Back by popular demand. 

After a hard fought point against WBA, now we turn our attentions to Stoke at home on Saturday, if we show the same heart, and a little bit more care in front of goal i believe we will win this 2-0, goals from Jozwiak and Lawrence, 3 points on saturday, could give this team a real confidence boost. 

Just got back in, wow my voice has gone, what great vocal support from the away end, and what a team effort to keep it at 0-0, a great point, we never gave up to night, a point deffo gained tonight, 3 points now on saturday. 

Great to be in the away end tonight, will deffo be making the trip to Sheffield United, the supporters, players and coaches all are in this together, and we are staying up. Once A Ram Always A Ram.

Disgracefully, the M&S at Coventry station doesn’t sell Carling. I’ve gone for something that might please and disgust @Eddie in equal measure.

How is the traffic mate, just leaving in a mo, due to my bro being late as per usual lol. Up the Rams, lets make some noise tonight boys. 

Sorry wrong thread thought i was in the WBA away one lol

I recognize this doesn't address the OP which is about defence, though for me the biggest defensive issue is the crazy way we always try to play "risk and reward" and then, once we've taken the risk and broken our opponent's line, we don't even bother trying to claim the reward but instead turn backwards and start taking risks again. But that's partly because we don't have enough attacking players to hit. What we need if we're going to survive this season is to have much more of an attacking threat, and play to the strengths of our attacking players. And for that I would take 4-3-3 every time:

Roos

Byrne     Jagielka     Davies     Buchanan

Ravel

Sibley     Knight

Jozwiak    Stretton    Lawrence

Subs: Allsopp Stearman Forsyth Bird Watson Shinnie Baldock 

with Bielik coming into Ravel's place once fit and Ravel moved further forward.

Don't think Forsyth will be on the bench mate, he is suspended still. Will miss him as well, as WBA like to pump the ball into the box.

Vydra was a Pearson signing ?

Cheers mate, Vydra scored over 20 goals the season after for Mr Rowett, unless i dreamt that one up as well lol

Best signings in rhe Morris reign. 

Would be Vydra, Curtis Davis, both Rowett signings, Tom Ince was a exciting player and we made money on him. Also having Mount and Tomri on loan was a pleasure seeing 2 top young players, always knew these 2 would go on to better things, for me Mount will be one of Englands best players for the next 8 years at least.

There is no fight, some on here think MM can do no wrong and walk on water as others can see his faults and failings

I agree with you mate, Mel has ripped this club apart, he has got alot more wrong than he has got right in my opinion, and the sooner he is gone the better , and then hopefully  the mighty Rams can rebuild again. 

Well guys and girls. A tough looking away trip to the Albion, but in this very average championship anything can happen, they onlly managed a draw with Millwall on saturday, so i am hoping for my first away trip off the seasin we some how manage a win, hope all us Rams Fans are bouncing at the end of the game, i am going for a 1-0, smash and grab. 

First away game of the season 1-0, to the Rams to send the away end crazy, Curtis from a corner 79th minute, WBA to miss a hat full. 

Got home from work today, and waiting for me on the hall mat was my 3 WBA tickets, stress now over, can not wait for tuesday night now. 

Bought my WBA tickets monday evening, still not received them through the post yet, as anyone received there tickets yet, always bloody problems with Derby at the mo. 

Will never be part of the Mels fan club, he has made far to many bad decisions, will not go over them again, as i have been banging this drum to long, i love DCFC, and all i want is some new owners to support our manager and get this great club back off its knees, and start having postive press again, and lets start talking about on field matters again, fed up with all the off field stuff now. Once A Ram Always A Ram, are you listening Mel.

On Mel Morris: 

When he sold Candy Crush in 2015, he became immensely cash rich as per the above. Whilst I do believe he has lost an uncomfortable amount of personal fortune in owning Derby County, in which time he has looked to spend above the means of the competition rules of his own volition. It would still make him an immensely rich person, who has absolutely no excuse for running the club as badly as he currently is. 

What I would say to him, given half the chance, is clean up your own mess. The cutting of corners is doing nothing but to agitate fans and to downtools as significantly as he has, i.e. not pay the HMRC or other clubs, not to mention the fiasco with the ticket office, is absolutely inexcusable.  

If he can get the club stable again, which isn't going to cost the world, and away from the 'crisis club' narrative then it will become a lot more attractive to potential buyers - real potential buyers and not blokes who know how to steal videos from TikTok or look fancy in a big white robe. 

Great post, i agree with everything u said, Mr Morris needs to sort the mess out he has caused ASAP, then he can sell the club with his head held high, otherwise he will go down as the fan who destroyed the club he loved.

Did anyone else get the option for tickets to be posted?

My confirmation email had no attachment, so nothing to print off.  Which is what I was expecting.  I didn’t think tickets being posted was even an option.  Any feedback would be appreciated.

Yes my WBA, tickets are being posted mate, should take 48 hours.for them to reach u. 

Its a shame he is banned for 3 games, been very good at left back. and will be missed, but a great chance for Buchanan to now have 3 games on the run, and show us all, what we all know he is capable off. 

Been in the home ends a few times, Villa away, when we win 2-1, Deano and Goddard scoring if i remember right, Manu away when we lost 4-1 and steve Howard scored, i jumped up and got loads.of dogs abuse, from a women with a cockney accent lol, Hull away when we lost 2-1, we equalised i jumped up and the locals went mad pointing at me to get me thrown out but it all calmed down and when they got there winner they was all asking me the score lol, but all in all i never felt in to much danger. 

I agree B4, when we are watching our super Rams, like we have done so far, to get behind the team 100 percent, since we have been back playing in front of crowds the atmosphere has been excellent long may that continue

I have my own opinions on Mel, but when i go to the games i go to support DCFC, and never chant any negative stuff. 

Once A Ram Always A Ram. 

Wilk be watching this on sky, as its a friday night kick off, looking forward to another Derby performance with guts, effort andvskill, feel if we can keep Deeney quite, which we can, we might nick this one by the odd goal, gping 2-1, to the Rams, Lawrence and Curtis from a corner to send the 1000 travelling fans mad. 

Good to be back posting again

My thoughts of Wayne is nothing but praise, bringing in good experience pros, to mix it up the the youth, was so important, having no money, but for me with want he has at his disposal he is doing a great job, also love the way we are trying to play, so many positives, around the squad and coaching staff. 

Just need a takeover now, and to come out of the embargo, to give Wayne the help he and the coaches and playing staff deserve. 

Agree we should go to the game to support the team and Manager, because the problems at Derby are not down to them, the sooner we are sold the better for everyone including Mel. Will not boo Mel, as all my energy will be supporting the team, but i will not support Mel, for what he has done, but No booing or calling for his head, i am there to support Derby County, as i have done for 40 odd years or more. Once A Ram Always A Ram.
