IslandExile got a reaction from jimtastic56 in No midfield control again…
Graeme Shinnie would be good, still only 32.

Not a very convincing display.
MOTM: Elder. Indeed, he was just about the only one to emerge with much credit.
Chance to go top of the league? Err, I don't think so.

That's bad in two ways:
1. I agree with your assessment
2. I agree with you

IslandExile reacted to i-Ram in No midfield control again…
The team are not coached to have any control. Another midfielder will not help if Warne continues to employ the tactics he wants us to play football.
I say football. It’s pinball. Players must be being encouraged to move it as forward as quickly as possible, taking no more than 3 touches. Chaotic, gas out type football.
I thought we might go up with our squad automatically, even with him in charge. I am beginning to think not.

Their goal. A throw in, one turn, one pass and we're wide open on the opposite flank. I'm going to have nightmares about that.
The ref was the worst (in a totally unbiased, equally inept for everyone type way) I've seen in years, and it doesn't even make the top 10 of things to be raging about.
Hope I'm wrong, but unless we can sign a leader in that midfield (and now a striker) in the next week forget top 2. We might limp in top 6, but no way we win the play-offs. We don't have the minerals. Way too often we're soft and easy-osy when we need to dig in.
I'm going out to the garden to scream until my vocal chords rupture.

No repeat pitch invasion.

Seriously though, what on earth is that Ram? I’ve honestly never seen that before.
The ‘72 ram looked just like today’s beautiful creature so where did this one 4 or 5 years come from?

Actually, there are better photos that I should have used but, if nothing else, it will start another conversation about the badge.

Enforced business plan finishes in the Summer and no wage cap from then on either. Coincidence? I think not!

Most exciting signing we’ve had in yonks and the forum descends into Economics Weekly.
Welcome Corey - you’re a ram now. Enjoy!

@IslandExile @littleover ram I was just speculating, but seems from what Leigh Curtis is saying it is linked to the business plan in a way 🤷🏻♂️

Because he works for the DET, it'll be a Peugeot. Bland, loads of horrible adverts and it never works properly.

IslandExile reacted to North East Ram in BBG photos
Nice one Admira. I’m in the pic of Bobby celebrating one of his many goals in a 84/85 Centenary Bass top down the Normo end.
Bobby is all trademark thighs, popeye forearms and Magnum tache. And I’m a skinny little 10 year old jumping for joy in the Ossis Upper.
I’d been to the BBG in previous seasons (but can’t can’t remember the games) but those years in Div3 were my first season ticket, and the crucial barb that has still got me hooked to this day, 40 years later.
Kevin Wilson was a hero in the beginning. But Bobby was God soon after. And Arthur was the king. Still is.

So who’s taking a tennis ball in case we’re losing heavily at 60 minutes? 😜

IslandExile reacted to Caerphilly Ram in Lincoln v Derby match day thread.
This is one of those games where I want Warne to see the approach we currently have isn’t working and to proactively make changes. Thompson or Robinson on for Sibley/Elder to get extra legs in midfield.
