    GrimsbyRam got a reaction from LeedsCityRam in Derby v Carlisle (A) Match Thread   
    A win is a win and that’s the most you can take away from that. Look quite composed towards the end. 
    What worries me is that we have had one shot on target from open play in September and that was today from their mistake. The rest (bolton, Pompey and today) have been penalties. Need create more and that starts with ball retention/getting players in the right position.
    Its no coincidence our results come generally without 3 at the back.

    GrimsbyRam got a reaction from Premier ram in James Collins   
    He's been terrible for a number of games and when being as a sub, he does not influence the game.  To me, I would try him again with McGoldrick around him.  I think it's time to go three at the back (Rooney not Davies).  We can then use sibley/Bark on left and Smith/Mendez on the left.  Bird, knight and Conor in the middle.  That we if we need to change it up, we can have Dobbin and the players above not starting to run at tired players and can switch formation up

    I am not sure Chelsea went into administration.  They were given a 'special licence' to allow club to be sold.

    Yep, spot on.  
     
    Just run it past my wife who is an HR Director, and she unfortunately reckons Derby don’t really have a case under TUPE.

    Derby Telegraph reporting this too? "But it has since emerged that some players at the club had taken legal advice on their contracts that could be ripped up even though the club’s takeover has been finalised. Now Derby have been sold to Clowes Developments, it will be in the form of a new company and that is governed by legislation known as Transfer of Undertakings.
    Staff automatically switch to the new company but they also have the right to be told about the transfer and can object to being an employee before it happens. In theory, that allows players to have their contract terminated as it effectively becomes a resignation"

    GrimsbyRam reacted to Ewe Ram in My apologies to Mr Wayne Rooney   
    I’m really happy with him and the way he’s leading the team. I wasn’t that much of a fan before but right now I really admire him. 
    I wonder if having him around will help attract new owners, I tend to think it will.

    GrimsbyRam reacted to Ambitious in Players asked to defer wages   
    I don’t like it. 
    The players should be free to say no, without punishment. Some players can afford a deferral more than others.
    If a life long Derby County fan with 100s of millions in the bank can’t be arsed to sacrifice for the club then why should the players?
    I’m a Derby fan and I would be saying get me my money or allow me to walk. There is absolutely no certainty this deferral will ever be paid. Are we not just delaying the obvious?

    GrimsbyRam reacted to ram59 in My admiration for Rooney has shot up   
    Rooney took sole charge of the team before the Wycombe match, which is when you need to judge him. Before that he was part of a 4 man committee and playing for the team at the time.
    Before the Wycombe game we were bottom and 6 points plus goal difference from safety, with points per game total of less than half, which mean't that we were on course for a grand total of 21 points, less than half of we got.

    If this is true (not doubting at all), shows how bothered 'mel' was about the club!  Rooney has dealt with everything this season with class and we need to stick by him things are going better than expected at the moment on the pitch but even if not, we need to remember things like this.
