taffyram reacted to GboroRam in Sinead O'Connor dead age 56
No details, but we know she's struggled with mental health and has attempted suicide in the past.
Sounds like she's had a very screwed up life. I hope she's found some peace.

56 ... shocked but her losing her son had hit her very hard (like any one else would losing a son-daughter)
A wounded woman that stood up to the Catholic church

He's still learning about being involved with a big club. Get used to it Mr Warne...... As Ellafella said... We are watching you.

The time to worry is if people weren't interested!

taffyram reacted to Ellafella in Paul Warne, M15, & Derby County Fans
Have to admit this made me laugh out loud…Warney goes about his clandestine football transfer dealings, ensures he puts his hand in front of his mouth so nobody can lip read, disguises himself by cunningly adopting identity-transforming various different head-gears on a daily basis, but all to no-avail when we’re talking about the forensic, all-seeing eyes 👀 of Rams who are poring over every conceivable link, blurred background photographs, keeping ever-watchful scrutiny of B&Q BBQ furniture purchases, and so on, just to see who our promised new 25-goal a season striker is. Turns out it’s Martin Waghorn all along, who has been hiding in broad daylight! Frustratingly Warne’s likened it to “MI5”. You couldn’t make it up!
Speaking yesterday Rams fans replied “We’re watching you Warney…& hint hint …we’re going to need a “bigger” striker than that! One that scores more frequently. Meanwhile M15 refused to confirm or deny reports of any other striker names.

Didn't expect a Devvo reference in here, but I'm all for it.

I like Leeds, especially their fans on social media. Got a real soft spot for them.

Love Warnock and I think Lampard is a bang average manager, but there's no way in hell we'd have had Wilson, Mount and Tomori playing for us without Lampard being in charge. Wilson maybe the only one.

A better manager like Neil Warnock would have easily gotten us promoted that season.

They're showing the game on Sky Football so though I would mention it. I'll probably get shot down for this but Keogh was immense and Marriott was incredible. We had such a good team back then, shame it never worked out.

taffyram reacted to Carnero in Is our budget any bigger than last year?
It's the 18th July and the transfer window closes 1st September, there's plenty of time to spend £ on the right forward when they become available.
As a L1 club, if it is players from higher up that we want, such as Ladapo & Godden, then unfortunately we have to sit and wait for Ipswich & Coventry to conclude their own transfer business first.
Patience Daniel san.

taffyram reacted to May Contain Nuts in Is our budget any bigger than last year?
Maybe Warne & Clowes are just confident that he has what it takes to assemble and manage a squad capable of putting us in contention around Christmastime without spending fees, and instead we're holding what spends we do have back for that notoriously difficult January window so as not to be caught short when people inevitably raise their prices, thus actually allowing us bolster our ranks midway through the season for a change in order to help avoid the Feb-March energy slump identified in past seasons playing to the levels Warne expects.

Or even just a bit sensible. Last year lads trip to Newcastle for the racing, hotel wanted £23 for breakfast. Or there's the local spoons at £3.95 plus a quid for a coffee....

No please No he did a good job for us in the day but please move on Martin is 100% not a Warne type player

taffyram reacted to ImARam2 in Chris Martin
We're not that desperate, surely?
Warne has repeated several times they want players in the 24-29 age bracket who are quick & mobile, and with a bit of experience of playing league football.
Chris Martin has had his time at Derby County and we loved him when he was with us, but we now have to remember and move on.

Well deserved. Steady, dependable and versatile. Brilliant servant for the club.

taffyram reacted to Loughborough Ram in Do we need a goalscorer Paul
It's exactly the point.
If we accept that Warne wants, and realises that we need a goalscorer, then it obviously means that at the moment we have been unable to get one that is better than we already have.
I personally feel that getting a good one once the season has started is far better than getting a couple of average ones in July just so that we can integrate them.

taffyram reacted to Anag Ram in Do we need a goalscorer Paul
Could you add the word Boy at the beginning of the thread name ? 😊👍
As many have said already, PW has said we need more options. I also remember he alluded to 4 or 5 before the training camp and a few afterwards.
He strikes me as someone who likes to meet players F2F and so will pick things up upon his return.

taffyram reacted to Day in Do we need a goalscorer Paul
Warne has talked about making more signings, I haven't heard him say he's happy with what he has, this is it.
Chances are Warne agrees with you, that doesn't make signing one any easier or quicker.
The reason we have been signing defensive players is, 1) we needed them and 2) they were freebies which are easier and quicker to do deals with.....saying that, even those were not quick enough.
Actual goal scorers will need negotiating fees for, hence why it will take longer to complete.
Ideal world, yes we have a complete squad ready at the start of pre season, I would say that is pretty rare though.
1 game down, still plenty of time to join and integrate into the squad.
tl;dr it's too early to panic.
