    What an illogical and poor assessment. Says more about you than of the numerous managers who made him first pick on the team sheet

    It's sounds a marvellous way to build a pattern of play.

    Whatever this season brings I can’t help but feel all warm and gooey inside every time we kick off. 
     
    Bogle and Lowe have long gone but they were a good start. Now, when I see the long long list of youngsters who over the last 12/18 months got a baptism of fire and met it with commitment and skill; I am filled with hope and delight.
    so many, even in this short time, have shown they aren’t lightweight kids thrown in to a desperate mincer. They have skill, fortitude and ability. They  have stepped up with ease.
    Watson, Williams, Thompson, Knight, Bird, Ebesole, Buchanan, Cashin, Sibley, Stretton. Just look at that list ! 
    Anyone of them can and will wear our shirt and give a good account of themselves. They have reached the mark at a young age. They are at the beginning. At this stage of their development they will only get better .. it’s a heck of a list from one club .. to produce virtually a full team from your own toy box in such a short stretch of time is magical. Manchester United make much of their youth development with 100 x our resources. Rooney, Daz Waz and even Mel must get a salute for being part of this. Then add in Curtis, Fozzy, Colin and Jags .. what great examples they are setting. .. These kids will win something, this year, next year or 5 years down the line. 
     
    It may sound strange but I am enjoying this battle against the odds because I am seeing character, courage, growing skills, enthusiasm, pride and sport prowess of the highest order. It is hugely rewarding and just joyful to see it.

    Watched the new series of Manhunter this week after really enjoying the first a week or so ago.
    It's even better than the first and sad it will presumably be the last as it was based on true events.
    Martin Clunes was ridiculously good. I put off watching the first one because he was in it and I can't not think of him in Men Behaving Badly (which was brilliant tbf), but he was outstanding.
    Fantastic script, perfectly paced, brilliant acting and if you didn't know the stories, utterly edge of your seat stuff.
    I'm giving it a movie vote of Colin Todd/10
    May check out The Undoing with Nicole Kidman before diving into watching the last 32 seasons of Bosch, anybody seen it?

    Not sure I'd call it as "classy"
    They're probably just trying to help us avoid liquidation. If we get liquidated there's a chance they might not get the full amount owed.

    Hathersage Ram reacted to atherstoneram in Derby County Administration (with the slight possibility of Liquidation still there)   
    The government haven't been bothered about the local economy with shops,pubs,nightclubs etc. closing down so i don't think why they should look on the club any differently,we have already had to make 20 people redundant.
    I am not being negative but realistically you have to look at the whole picture as to how others see it and not just fans of the club.

    Hathersage Ram reacted to B4ev6is in Time is now to let efl know our anger at them   
    Well guys I say we keep behind the lads and show them our love but towards the efl we need to show them our anger at them. It is bad enough that dragged our good name through the mud. But even worse they kepted money that could well have needed so mel could pay back money we owe to people.
    Well time is now to fight for our club and if efl think this is over by the fans they very very very sadly wrong.

    Hathersage Ram reacted to Derbados in Embargo.   
    According to Mel it’s everyone else’s fault but his, remember when he threatened to stop funding the club if the fans protested against him.
    I hope he doesn’t dare show his face in the city let alone the club again

    I started watching "The Kominsky Method" on Netflix a couple of nights ago - It really is just awesome. Two old guys pontificating on life as they get older. Michael Douglas and Alan Arkin. Nothing ground breaking, just really funny and poignant at times. 
    Doesn't immediately sound like it should be good, but as a 61 yo it has me in hysterics at times
    Give it a try

    Hathersage Ram reacted to Mostyn6 in The coronabrexit thread. I mean, coronavirus thread   
    Then, before you know it, it’s a mandatory annual jab, then it won’t be on NHS, which is slowly being disassembled, and the pharma companies are raking in billions in unnecessary vaccinations every year like they do with sponsored prescriptions in the USA. Just like the ‘conspiracy theorists’ were saying 18mths ago!

    Hathersage Ram reacted to SamUltraRam in Takeover Update   
    There have been two key moments under Mel Morris' ownership that have defined us - and neither were his fault, just terrible luck
    1) The pre season knee injury to George Thorne in 2014/15 - we'd have walked the league with him playing but we had to loan in Omar Mascarell as cover
    2) The 1st game of the season in 2015/16 at Bolton when both Will Hughes and Craig Bryson did their knees and were out for most of the season causing Mel to 'panic buy' Bradley Johnson & Jacob Butterfield and triggering our spiral of FFP overspend
     
    Both of those seasons we still managed to hit top of the league but lacked the quality of Thorne, Hughes & Bryson to see it over the line
    We've been fire fighting ever since

    Golf at the Olympics should be amateur only, similar to Boxing.
    It would provide a natural world peak of the amateur game, persuade young golfers to delay turning pro before they're ready, and really mean something to the participants.

    Hathersage Ram reacted to Igor Igor Whats the Score? in Kamil Grosicki - signed for Pogon Szczecin   
    Interesting that you interpret it that way. The implied point was meant to be that the restrictive transfer approach is creating a more sustainable business model for the club. Which I personally fully support ?

    Hathersage Ram reacted to Asanovic70 in The Championship 21/22   
    Yes, I know that, but thank you for pointing it out to me. I mentioned in an earlier post in the thread (page 4) that if Neil couldn't take them any further, you'd hardly expect his successor (McAvoy) to do any better. 
    Strewth, God give me strength.

    Hathersage Ram reacted to Igor Igor Whats the Score? in Kamil Grosicki - signed for Pogon Szczecin   
    This gets better…..making a profit on Joswiak and getting Grosiki in on a free capped until the end of the season and restricted wages meaning we don’t get stuck with a large contract. I’m loving our EFL imposed restrictions…..it’s making us so much better in the transfer market ???

    Sure. Morrison, Stearman, Allsop & Davies all on 12 month contracts under £4.5k with Jags and Baldock to come vs Blackman, Butterfield, Anya, Marriott, Shackell MK II, Jozefzoon, Camara etc etc etc ?

    Hathersage Ram got a reaction from europia in Please don’t blame Morris and Pearce.   
    Being able to read on your part would help! Do you think no business's have been sold during this pandemic, that's what you have professional advisors for.
    I don't know why MM has not found a buyer yet, however the most usual reason is usually the most obvious. Price!
    The responsibilities are endless in owning and appointing people to run any business, but he wasn't forced into it.
    He needs to face facts and sell asap

    Hathersage Ram got a reaction from europia in Please don’t blame Morris and Pearce.   
    You are deluded, The precarious position MM has engineered regarding EFL and finances is entirely his fault! 
    Secondly if he was so desperate to sell, then the price would reflect that.
    All this BS rhetoric from MM crying wolf regarding finances and only wanting whats best for Derby is in my opinion not worth the paper it's written on!
