ziggyram59 reacted to RadioactiveWaste in Formula 1 2023 and general Motorsport
Well, it wa exciting for a lap and a half at the start, then after the safety car as long you forget the max is cruising off at the front because that's just what it is.
So terrific from both McLaren drivers and so happy to have Lando and Lewis on the podium.
And good job from Alex Albon who I suspect is auditioning for a red bull return at the moment.
Terrible job by Ferrari.
Baby stroll ramming Gasly out of the race was pretty amateur.
Haas flambe basically saved the race as entertainment.
The team formerly known as Renault....wow, that sucked.

Nigel Pearson will probably play him at left back.

I'd have sooner sat in a waiting room at the dentist and had a tooth pulled without anaesthetic when watching that last hour, I was almost wavering and gave up...but hey 👍

The lack of any sort of batting discipline is astounding. So much time left, so few brain cells.

Something needs to change with Bairstow. He can't justify his place as a batter or wicketkeeper at the moment. He doesn't seem capable of playing a proper test innings.

I'm going to watch the cricket today for my sins hopefully the rain might hold off and we can make a game of it. Might dip in and out of F! just to see how it's going. Enjoy.

Having read some of the comments on the Conor Washington thread why don’t we swap him for Godden, Washington hasn’t even scored for us yet and seems to be a hybrid of Caskey,Greenwood &Hales 😀

That Peter Crouch film docu on Amazon Prime, well worth a watch, such a humble guy and Abby Clancys in it

I'll do my best.
I'll be honest, it's not that it's Max and Red bull that's turning people off, so much as we ended the Lewis/Mercedes domination in such a fantastic season in 2021 that I don't think anyone is ready for another stretch one driver/car being so dominant. At least between the Scumacher years and the Vettel years we had a few interesting seasons.

Very happy with this signing this is the one I have wanted to come to Derby ever since his been linked with us. Make him captain straight away.

RadioactiveWaste I usually look froward to the British Grand Prix but with Lewis struggling in the Mercedes and the fact Verstappen will bore people to death winning I'm going to give it a miss for the 1st time in over 40 years. Hope you enjoy my friend.

ziggyram59 reacted to Gee SCREAMER !! in Conor Washington - signed on a two-year-deal
Probably 20 goals short of challenging top 2 last year ?. Lost 25 since. This guy may get 10. Ward 5? Let's assume we're a bit more solid defensively. Still 20-25 goals short of a top 2 challenge and less mobility in midfield if Knight goes.
A lot of work to do for Top 6 and we won't get it for free.

Good luck to the guy. Hope he does well - but also hope we sign another (better) striker.
I'm also beginning to wonder if we are putting to much weight on the fact players have 'experience of promotion'. I mean Ryan Smith and Jay McEveley had 'experience of promotion' to the Premier League. Jonathan Greening 'had experience of' winning the treble with Manchester United.
Anyway, yeah, good luck. But if he'd signed for a promotion rival honestly I wouldn't have batted an eyelid.

ziggyram59 reacted to sunnyhill60 in Have you already seen the best Derby County?
Having had a season ticket in the early 1970s, yes!
DCFC have zero chance of another European Cup semi-final whilst I am drawing breath.
But since then there have been some great times, most recently the 2021/22 season when we saw on the pitch a totally commited squad and off it a united community fighting to ensure the club survived. Being in the Premier League is not the be all and end all for me so I continue to be a season ticket holder, not least as we have the best owner for many years

Born in ‘71 so whilst our glory years were in my lifetime I have no memory whatsoever. By the time I really started supporting the Rams in the late ‘70s it was all downhill. The best football was probably the first 3 years of Jim Smith. But in my mind the best period was under Arthur Cox from ‘84 - ‘89. Total rebuild, much like now, successive promotions and finishing 5th in the top flight only being denied European football due to the ban on English clubs.
I’m under no illusion that we will ever with the top division again but I live in hope we can get there again and hold our own. Which, unfortunately, is probably the best a club our size can hop for.

Bradley is replacing Davies, Stearman and Chester. The three of them made the equivalent to only 26.5 league games for us last season.

David Bowie's daughter Lexi singing Starman and Life On Mars so nice to hear her singing her dad's songs.

The exact amount of minutes we got out of him for 15 million quid. Spooky

ziggyram59 reacted to jimtastic56 in Bielik at Brum
Still no announcement from Brum. But Birmingham news are saying the fee will be around £400k. I hope they are not trying to chip us down after seeing his medical results.

I really hope so Carnero because to me he has become a burden whilst he is still at the club.

ziggyram59 got a reaction from scout's dad in League 1 - 23/24 Season
I can agree with you there my friend. Is there any summer sports you like? I enjoy watching the Cricket men's and women's game and Wimbledon starts next week which I enjoy watching. Use to enjoy Formula1 until Red Bull started to bore me to pieces so stopped watching that. But like you say it doesn't compensate for the football.
