    SaffyRam reacted to angieram in Steve Gibson trying to liquidate Derby   
    This snippet from last night's meeting really pisses me off: 
    "They are also fighting legal charges – for the Middlesbrough charge, lawyers has already been engaged  on both sides."
    If this doesn't demonstrate Steve Gibson's malicious nature, nothing does.
    What an absolute waste of administrators' time and the club's money. Talk about kick a man when he's down!

    I’ve got covid, and I think I caught it at the Reading game, most likely jostling for a pee at half time. Ought to have worn a mask, but didn’t, nobody else did either.

    I wonder if the administrators will try and strike a deal based on saying the following, at least as a starting point:
    "Give us zero or very few points for the P&S loss and in return, we won't appeal the administration under the force majeure for Covid"
    I'm sure the EFL wouldn't fancy us being the benchmark case for Covid otherwise, if they lost it, they would be in a lot of trouble.

    Yeah, they also have an extremely negative view of everything connected with club. 
    Anyone who saw Bielik play last season and still thinks we overpaid for him is having a laugh.
    Whether we should have spent that kind of money is a different issue.

    It was all the more impressive when you realise the changes to the defence during the match. First we lost Stearman, forcing Fozzy to have to move to cb and Buchanan to come on at lb. Then a further change to 3/5 at the back, with the impressive young Williams coming in.

    SaffyRam reacted to Alph in Fozzy   
    Never really understood why there's people who don't rate him. I know he does some ridiculous stuff at times. Like, it might be the last attack of the game at 0-1 and he gets the ball at left back and over hits a pass/cross by 3 mile and at 150mph. He does do mad stuff
    But in between that I think he's a beast. 
    Given us the best years of his career. Gotta give him some love for that

    SaffyRam reacted to 24Charlie in Fozzy   
    Being a long serving player he sometimes gets taken for granted. Several managers have bought in replacements and even promoted youngsters to his position.
    He’s seen them all off and he is just getting better with age. He’s been much over-looked for Scotland which, when you think they’ve even played Anya at left back is a travesty.

    I think Fozzy, who has taken a lot of stick the past few seasons has really stepped up to the plate in the last few games. Showing how much he cares. Deserves recognition for showing the young uns a real example. Showed his worth today when replacing Stearman.

    I too thought we looked leggy early doors.  
    After 20 mins, we got into the game and didn't really look like conceding. 
    Hard fought point, could nitpick but overall happy enough.

    He was found unconscious in the car but then allowed to walk home? Did I read that part right? Surely that would not happen and the paramedics would have a duty of care to take him to hospital to be checked up properly.

    SaffyRam reacted to WystonRam in Volunteers to work at the club   
    Hi All, genuine question.
    The club is short staffed currently and still cannot open the ticket office for example. Who would volunteer to work to get things open so that for example people could buy tickets from the ticket office ? I have offered to work for free on match day mornings for example, and to get the Ticket office open earlier than 10AM.
    Any one else willing ? There must be retired people who could staff in the week?

    In that case I will refrain from my usual moaning about the inconvenience. That sort of income is probably more than would have been generated in Saturday ticket sales.
    I'm sorry for those who can't now get, though.

    That’ll be when all the Sheffield United players crowded the referee to get him to change Roos’ yellow card to a red. Makes sense that we get fined, obviously.

    Just thought I'd say hi. 
    Been a long time visitor to this forum and enjoyed reading your comments (most of them anyway!). Decided to finally become a member so I can share my own thoughts, after what has been a whirlwind couple of weeks for the Rams (not to mention the couple of years leading up to it). Whether you enjoy my comments remains to be seen...
    A bit about me – I was born in Burton but have spent the most of my adult life living and working in the East (Anglia that is). One of my earliest memories of the Rams was watching the Tin Man warming up at the BBG by nonchalantly curling the ball into the net from the corner flag, which to my 10 year old eyes was very impressive. The only thing I remember about the game itself was that it was 0-0, so McMinn's corners were probably  the most exciting thing about it.
    Currently living near Ipswich so would be good to meet any fellow Suffolk Rams over a pint (ale not lager please). Not seen many Derby shirts down this way but know from this forum that there are a few.
    Regardless of the situation we're in, loving the fight we're showing this season (and better football). Hope things get resolved soon so we can look to the future, whatever division that may be. 
    COYR!
