    MaltRam got a reaction from Kathcairns in Games That Aren't Talked About Enough   
    The new main stand that nearly bankrupted them set back about 30 yards from the pitch, the rest of the stadium crumbling. I've never been so cold in my life. I thought I was going to lose my toes.

    I was at the game and loved every minute from hitting the Neptune at 0930 and leaving the Brunny about 2030 en route to my hotel where I had another couple before hitting the hay, having been up since 0300.
    I've just watched the full 90 plus all the shenanigans on the pitch afterwards. Congratulations, Owen. You didn't melt. You stayed very professional and did a sterling job. Your voice was so chock full of emotion, you could have been forgiven for having a meltdown but you soldiered on. Like a true Ram, fighting till the end. Thank you for your coverage, not just from last Saturday but also from the other 38 games where this expat watched and listened to #RamsTV just outside of Amsterdam. Already looking forward to next season's offerings and hoping I can, again, get over for around 8 of the games.
    Ewe Rams!

    Ipswich win 2-1 at Coventry so only need a point on Saturday to get automatic and leave Leeds in the playoffs 😁

    Of games that haven't been mentioned yet, I'll mention two : a 4-0 away win at a crumbling Molyneux just after Christmas 1985, when the team really clicked and warmed up a freezing cold afternoon in Cox's Division 3 promotion season; and the 2-1 win at Highbury the season Arsenal won the double and we completed the double over them - a beautiful day and we celebrated the night away in Covent Garden.

    Playing to sold out car parks, living the dream of kicking and hacking down better footballers on better teams, taking legal actions against clubs in administration, those joyful days that Wycombe fans will tell their grankids about in 15 or so years time...

    MaltRam got a reaction from Derby4Me in Paul Warne   
    Warne was given a 4 season deal, of which he's got two left.
    Warne's brief was to deliver an established Championship club. He's achieved the first step.
    The conduct of Mr Clowes' tenure so far is pretty strong evidence that Warne will get every chance to deliver.
    Unless and until we have a catastrophic spell where the team have clearly thrown in the towel and we're cut adrift in the relegation zone, Warne will stay. 
    If we could agree on that premise, surely it'd be best for club that we refrain from indulging ourselves with the topic for a few months at least?

    Clowes is a smart businessperson. A new deal will come but only when Warne has exceeded expectations. Say it’s this time next year and we are comfortably safe.
    Warne has two years to run on his current deal, so surely you just let things play out.
    Dealing with the manager’s future would be a needless distraction at this point. It should be a case of all eyes and all minds on building the best possible playing squad we can.

    I'm also guilty of questioning the timing of certain posts/topics, including one of Sage's, the summer transfer suggestion thread, which in my opinion was absurd to be thinking about in February when we had no idea what league we would be in.
    The topic remains open, into page 39, doesn't change my opinion that it should have been a conversation to be starting this week.
    Same with Paul Warne's future and worrying about the style of football in the Championship. We're there now, makes sense if those want to voice their concerns. 
    There is a huge difference though between being told you cannot talk about something, quiet, sssh, lock it and voicing an opinion which questions the timing. 
    I also think most regular members should be able to read the room at this stage, you know roughly where people stand and if you're going to throw out a controversial take 10 minutes after the final whistle after gaining promotion, kinda got to accept the criticism you would get for that.
    Also, theres been some goading from the other side if you like following promotion, forcing humble pie down someone's throat will only be spat back in your face. If you actually read what those critical of Warne are saying, promotion wouldn't change the concern they have going forward, so yeah, lose the first 2 or 3 I'm sure we'll be back to the same debate.
    Although for me, if you give the manager the summer, got to give them until Christmas then barring any complete and utter disaster situation which we saw under Pearson.
    All in my opinion of course.

    MaltRam got a reaction from Hinzy9 in Now we're promoted, what are your thoughts on League One ?   
    I liked the away fans, I liked winning most weeks. 
    The novelty of third rate away stadia soon wore off (from the comfort of my sofa on RamsTV).
    The quality of the football though. Jesus. Compared to the Championship it's awful. Much better entertainment on offer next year...assuming we're competitive.
