  1. 1 hour ago, Premier ram said:

    Good performance from the lads last night , would like to give a shout out to a couple of players who may have gone under the radar last night , i thought Fozzy gave a captains performance , led from the front , talked his younger team mates at the back through the game and if i remember rightly didnt put a foot wrong , secondly , in my opinion , Korey Smiths best performance so far , like Fozzy , helped his younger team mates all night , intelligeny use of ball , always available for a pass and put a foot in to break up WBA attacks

                     Well done to those two and the rest of the lads , Proud  to be a Ram

    Totally agree with this, I thought Korey Smith was everywhere, particularly second half.  And Foz got his head on everything.

  2. When I had a chat with Curtis a couple of weeks ago, he said that Chester was going to start the Oxford game with himself until Chester picked up his injury. So Rosenior had Davies and Chester as his first choice centre halves, or at least did for the Oxford game. He’s got a nice headache now when Chester is available, there’s no way he can leave Cash out. We’re very fortunate to have 4 very good centre halves.

  3. Just when I thought I couldn’t love him any more…

    We were getting the train back from the Commonwealths last night and the train stopped at New St. My son was sitting facing the door, wearing a Derby training top.  This guy walked past George and patted him on the shoulder and said hi, then sat on the seats behind. I whispered who was that? and it was only Curtis bloody Davies.

    So I popped my head round to ask if I could say hello (he’d signed a shirt for George recently and I wanted to say thanks) and he was unbelievably friendly. It’s 25 minutes back to Sutton and we chatted the whole way. I backed off and sat down initially as he was with his daughter, but he was leaning over the seats and really happy to talk.

    I can’t remember everything we talked about (I was a bit giddy!) but he said Netflix should have done a documentary on us and listed all the dramas since he’s been at the club. One thing I didn’t know it had forgotten is 8 or 9 people got food poisoning in America on the pre-season when Cocu joined. Apparently the food was inedible and they were ordering McDonalds on Uber Eats.

    He seemed put out that the existing players’ deals were last to be sorted out. His words were that the club sorted out the new signings and there was this much left over for us. Didn’t seem salty though and said other clubs wanted to talk to him but he always wanted to stay, so made excuses to avoid speaking to them. He would like a final year at Orient though.

    Interestingly he hopes DC will appoint football people for football roles, rather than finance people. I asked if he meant Steven Pearce and he did, doesn’t seem happy that he’s still there.

    There was loads more, I might post again if I remember anything interesting. But I was blown away how friendly he was, he’s a lovely man and I’m pretty sure we’re now best friends. I’m definitely going to invite him to my birthday party!
