    Marriot Ram99 got a reaction from Bessie1 in I Feel As Fans, A Lot Of Us Have It Wrong.   
    You don't get points and win games for being a decent guy though and most of us want decent football with proper development of youth as well. I was thinking he was a good person as well after watching it though but he will get abuse even if he cured cancer if the results and performances at home were poor enough.

    He's a football manager. Perhaps he should have applied for the DCFC Chaplains post?
    I'm getting bored with the 'he's a lovely man' stuff. He wasn't so lovely when he put the blame for not doing well on some of the squad - just paranoid. 
    He's a nice bloke but I don't care I want a good football manager.

    After how miserable he looked when he signed, I can't imagine how miserable he must be now.

    Marriot Ram99 reacted to duncanjwitham in NML - impact sub   
    We should be rotating wingers regularly.  Start 2 of them, let them run themselves into the ground for 60 minutes, then throw 2 others on for 30 minutes against tired legs.  Then next game, swap them round.  Keep everyone fresh over the season, not play NML for 90 minutes every single week so he’s dead on his feet by Christmas.

    We have a top 6 budget with top 1 facilities and I expect a top 6 finish.

    If David Clowes hadn’t saved the Club you wouldn’t be on here constantly moaning. Possibly Don Amott might be the subject of your negativity instead. In my view Clowes has carte  blanche to do whatever he wishes for a few years yet. He will run the Club as he sees fit and employ who he wants to employ. The Club is gradually being transformed totally I guess, even if most of us aren’t aware of the steps being taken.
    First and foremost Clowes is a Derby County fan - he is totally aware of our current internal situation (unlike us) and no doubt, just like us would like to see better performances than we have seen so far. The only difference is that he has stumped up millions to save our club - I know you have bought your season ticket and have you travelling costs. But there is a huge difference and I think he deserves our support, rather than questioning his early tenure. If he believes that Pearce is the right person to employ, knowing fully what has happened in the past, then who are we the question his decision.
    Under Paul Warne our away results have improved, lest we not forget previous terrible runs. We do need to improve at home, but for many visiting teams a visit to Pride Park is their FA Cup Final and make things difficult for us.I am sure things will improve as some of our players return. We have had cruel luck with injuries so far and I just don’t buy the idea that these are caused by the current training regime (which of course to many is Paul Warner’s fault too).
    For goodness sake, there are a few “fans” who need to bite their lips and not behave like spoilt children because they can’t immediately have all the toys for Christmas they wanted. If you can’t support our Club, in these early years of rebuild, go and “support” some other club or start your own Forum “ Negative Rams Members Only”. There are a few that would love to contribute.

    What utter nonsense. Everyone at the club has talked of winning promotion this season as the aim. Warne has even targeted top 3. Our budget at the very least is top 6, and a chance of it actually being the highest wage bill in the league this season. We are 8 games in, sit 9th in the table thanks to an over reliance on set pieces and Waggy magic, whilst performing more like a bottom half side not far off the relegation spots.
    Anything less than promotion this season is a failure.

    Not sure if this a great joke or a serious post.... If it's serious, then it's absolutely bonkers. At what point can we start critiquing the decisions made by Clowes? Is there a sell-by date where saving the club loses its power for us to say Warne is the wrong man? Of course, every derby fan will forever be grateful to Clowes for saving the club. How could we not be. But that doesn't mean thinking every move he makes is right, nor do we lose our right as fans to have our say. If we take anything from the Morris era, it should be that allowing an owner carte blanche for whatever reason is a lousy idea. 
    So far on the big calls I'd say he's 0-3. I thought he was wrong to oust Rosenior after 10 games, wrong to bring Paul Warne in, and wrong to keep Pearce around. On the plus side, he's stabilised the club, not been reckless with the cash and seems to have brought a much better culture with him at the club.

    He didn't know the score - he said 4-2 when it was 5-2
    He stated he watches the first half of U21 games on Saturdays - they have played on a Saturday only once since he's been manager. He's likely been watching the U18s instead but doesn't realise it.
    He's joked about not wanting to be quizzed on naming the academy players.

    Mac1 turned a slightly above average Championship side into one playing fantastic football over night.
    Rosenior created a very good League 1 side from scratch over a few weeks.
    Warne has taken a very good League 1 side and turned it into an average one after 12 months and 55 games in charge, and can barely pass the ball anymore.

    Marriot Ram99 reacted to May Contain Nuts in Warne: what would it take?   
    I didn't say anyone had said those words, just displayed that sort of attitude.
    It's an attitude which is very much very much prevalent in your posts on the subject, especially, for example when you revert to quoting strict dictionary definitions to make your point and to suggest that someone is 'slow' or 'naive if they thought that they had a chance of getting the job when their title is interim manager.
    It seems to escape your grasp that we're talking about real people, not automatons.
    The chairman himself has said that there was a good chance that said person could have got the job, which flies in the face of your pedantry over the word interim. 
    The funny thing is I was kind of backing you up - I don't believe there's been any wrongdoing by any party and that everyone was pretty much clued in on the reality of the situation.

    Marriot Ram99 got a reaction from GB SPORTS in Russell Brand   
    Brand is not right wing he isn't a Conservative guy, I would say I'm alot further to the right myself without being far right or anything.  He's anti establishment and progressive I think mainly so like a slightly left of centre anti establishment guy who aligns with some Conservative narratives as well. He's the type of guy who would be happy to have more migrants coming in as long they are in poorer areas not near him.
    As far as the case goes it sounds bad in a way but I'm not exactly thinking innocent until proven guilty when it comes to him,was a very dodgy character and with no self control during the period so nothing would surprise me and some of the allegations make me think he should be locked up for a while if true as someone who liked to listen to some of his Youtube talk shows in the past and thought he was alright.

    Why do people do this to themselves every year?
    It would take something incredible for any of Luton, Burnley or Sheffield United to get nine points or fewer across 32 more games.
    Superior teams like Chelsea, Villa, West Ham, Brentford and Brighton will have off days and give them opportunities to pick up odd points here and there. Forest, Wolves, Everton, Bournemouth, Palace and Fulham are very beatable. Then they have four games against their immediate rivals.
    They might not break the 25 point mark but they would have to be unfathomably poor to trouble our record breakers.

    I wouldn't want Warnock not exactly going to be a good option to build us long term is he?  Also can't believe people would want him and complain but Warnes football,  he's not exactly Guardiola or De Zerbi. Plays direct and old school.

    Mate, don’t engage. You’ll be just wasting your time, you’ll have more luck teaching trigonometry to a dachshund then getting Turden to see any other point of view then the one that aligns with his own cemented beliefs without receiving a twisted response that doesn’t truly address the point you made.

    I'm not convinced there is a 'league 1 level' type of football. The major difference is the consistency of the style of play, and excellence at it. Indeed I think that the football we've seen played over more than a season is of a decent standard not to be stereo-typed in any particular way.

    Christ no ,, not sweet Caroline ,hey Jude or any such generic plastic attempt at the Americanised sport experience , atmosphere at football has to be created by importance of the game and how it pans out , anything else is just fake nonesense , certain games I was at through our history stand out to me because the atmosphere was electric, why pretend every game is like or can be like that 🤷🏻‍♂️
