I dont think we ever had enough control of the ball today to really see our new style of play, Huddersfields formation stifled us.
He wants our fullbacks high and our cms split to cover the space left by the fullbacks, the 10 then drops into the space vacated by the 2 cms splitting. 
Forsyth managed to get forward ok but Byrne didnt get forward as much because their lwb had a brilliant game.

I didn't see much difference to what we'd served up before.
That's not a surprise, this team is far from finished player wise, so it's probably better to look for such progress in a few weeks, when hopefully things are more settled.

Great interview on Radio Derby. Really honest.
Said if it was any other club than Derby he'd have been gone before now. But he wanted to stay and this is now the longest he has stayed at any club in his career. 
Also said neither him nor Stearman even knew they'd be here when they trained Thursday and that they had no playing time together as a pair in pre-season.
Gave praise to Derby players and call outs for Roos, Sibley, Fozzy. 
Oh, and he did say he didn't touch the ball for the goal! But he credited Duane Holmes with the assist! ?
 

Starting the player praise early.
Curtis Davies... What a man he is. He has literally put his body on the line for the club, and now his career. 
Excellent today and will probably be our biggest 'signing' of the year. 

Oops!  Sorry!  Was at the match!  
Still, better late than never!


Probably best if someone takes over the matchday Thunderbirds gif, what with me being a full free-seat fan, and not being sat at home with free RamsTV access anymore.
Any half fans out there fancy the job?  It's not too daunting if I'm honest, and usually only requires no more than one gif a game... if that!

"Anything could happen in the next half hour".
But....it probably won't, not even in the next 48 hours.
But kudos for your Gerry Anderson knowledge.

Nobody mention Bristol City's goal scorer ?‍♂️

Pretty ‘unbelievable’ for the club to ask players to sign contracts with no numbers in. 

I remember reading him saying the price hike was too much?

We've given the ball away more times than them.
I think I count 3 times to their 1
Does this count? ?

Where's @SaintRam?
Now we don't get every game streamed - in the UK - I rely on the text commentary.

Neatly arranged used tenners in an attache case?

Because he immediately afterwards unfollowed the club.

Scored 4 against Tottenham playing up front but great in Mackay's midfield.

Loved the 5-2 win at Hillsborough.... Jim's team at their best.

I think we all know why he's been sleeping on the couch ?

As well. I think it's another option!

Of course. I would play him before. I was just being facetious about the possibility of signing Baldock. No point signing a player who’s whole game was predicated on pace off the last defender when his legs have gone. 

Fail?

Summer always sees lower crowds - its peak holiday time and many will be away especially those like us ahead of both sets of exam results unusually next week, some will be committed to playing cricket for a couple of weeks yet (how dare half fans do something with their time) and surely this year the pingdemic/covid cases/caution will affect numbers a little or a lot. Also unfortunately some will just have got into the habit of doing something else they enjoy more on a Saturday.  Many also cant afford it each week especially if wanting to attend with kids. It is a very expensive day.
However, some of you please stop the superiority if you are lucky enough to be able to go each week. And yes I mean lucky. Many cant do that ever or at certain times of their lives. Doesnt mean "these plastic half fans" dont refresh their phone every 2 seconds waiting for news, get butterflies leading up to the game, feel jittery for every second of every game and be depressed/grumpy when we lose.  season tickets wont work for us this year but we will be there whenever we can home and away and we are not less fans because of it

Not a problem. We'll be above both in 8 hours time

Got to love YouTube subtitles
