    Ram-Alf got a reaction from Bald Eagle's Barmy Army in Rub of the green !   
    I read that yesterday on tinternet, I couldn't believe what I was reading, My eyes rolled back in my head so far I had to bang the back of my head to get my eyes re set.
    The Officials in our game including the Premier league are at an all time low for me, As much use a an ashtray on a motorbike, Unfortunately there's nowt we can do about it, Stuart Attwell, The man who I will never like officiated Spurs vs Man Untd yesterday, Attwell was in the middle, There was a VAR check and he was talking and smiling with Renaldo... you just knew there was something going off in Attwells shorts.

    The fact that we only went in at HT 0-2 was a blessing, This division along with the Officials is as poor as I can remember, Take Bournmouth, Fulham and WBA and the rest are pretty average, This gives me great hope for the rest of the season.
    A few observations, One in particular, Most if not all are wondering why Lawrence is Captain, I wonder how he keeps getting game time, I guess it's because there may be just may be he can turn up and put in more than 1 performance in 5-6, He certainly has/had talent but WR and Rosenior can not get what we all have seen prior to Joiner Gate, Jozwiak needs Bielik in the team, Had that very good spell when Bielik was playing...but gone off the boil since.
    Hitting the post and CKR missing a good chance shows that we could have pinched a point from an undeserved position, That's how poor this division is, For me CKR and Festie have to start on Wednesday, Phyicallity and speed can and will upset defences, Barnsley are on an awfull run...lost the last 6 games, A win and it will take us off the bottom, This will give all concerned a huge lift going into the Millwall game.
    As some posters have said...these games come around for all at one time or another Stoke 3-0 up, 5 mins later 3-3 and that's with Cardiff losing their last 8 games.
    2 Games next week that can give all a boost going into yet another International break.

    Tom Lawrence must be dynamite in training when there is no pressure, far less intensity and attacking drills where he can display his qualities such as snap shooting. He’s probably our best player in training.
    As I can’t see any other reason as to why he is not only our captain, but getting regular game time.
    Constantly picks the wrong option under pressure, physically weak and very tunnel-visioned.

    Ram-Alf reacted to Woodley Ram in Derby finally accept 21 point deduction.   
    I put some of the supporters of other clubs in the same bracket as the current climate change protestors, ill informed and unable to see anything other than their own views which (as the information is limited) is a bit blinkered. I know they will say the same about us and yes in some cases that is true.
    This is what I have picked up especially from the BCFC forum.
    The amortisation was very bad and the fine was not good enough. The EFL needs to take this into account when any other FFP penalties are issues. We got away with murder with the sale of the stadium and have cheated. IF and only if the stadium is sold to the new owner at a discounted rate then we should be sent back to a tribunal for possible points deductions. Not sure they can do that, isn't there a double jeopardy law for this?? If that happened (the sale back to new owners) I can understand why people wouldn't be happy with that. Also a point here the EFL did originally sign it off and asked for a small reduction which we adhered to.   We have cheated for years, overspent for years and we should have our feet put to the fire for it, made an example. Well the amortisation whilst legal for other businesses is not for the EFL. We didn't hide the amortisation (that's how it as picked up) but we could have been a lot clearer (that's why the fine was low). We haven't been trying it on with the EFL for years. They took us to a tribunal and lost, they appealed and won the amortisation part. From this we had to resubmit the accounts which we did. We didn't submit our accounts to the EFL on time, agreed that's because of the appeal and redoing them. however we could have been quicker (just my point of view), but it really wouldn't have been that much quicker.    We didn't pay transfer fees on time. Yep not the only ones to do that We didn't pay wages on time. Yep about 3 weeks late and we received a penalty for that. Others were far worse (SWFC) We didn't pay HMRC, agreed and we got a transfer embargo for that (and the others) We went into administration and appealed. Sorry are we not allowed to do that? Isn't that in the rules or doesn't that apply to us? Do we have a case, yes, will we win probably not. Also our case is different than Wigan's and I would say stronger. We should get a bigger deduction than Reading because of not paying bills (HMRC) and the amortisation. Even though they have a far bigger FFP over spend and I don't really care if they are greatly overspent next season.  We need a sustainable business plan. I agree and our operating costs have been greatly reduced with a wage bill in the bottom 3-4 in the Championship. Everyone should have aa sustainable business plan. The Gumps and BCFC have been lucky that they have sold players for really large sums, if they hadn't they would be in the FFP naughty room. Lets talk Covid. If teams are going to get debts written off for FFP(I think Stoke was +£30m) due to Covid then it has to be due to a Force Majore event, which I believe Covid is.  You cannot use it for that but not for the reason why we are in administration. If Covid was the reason (and I am saying If) then we should not get a penalty. The fact others haven't gone the same way is irrelevant. there is no law in the land that states that an owner has to cover very large losses and if he cannot for what ever reason then you go bust. Trust me I would rather we were never in this situation. Wycombe and Gibson asking for money. Fine , I still don't think its going anywhere. It it does I think QPR and Aston Villa will still be in the statute of limitations window to sue both of them for going up instead of us. I think that (play off finals) would be a stronger and bigger case (£100m each ). I do however think that this is not the way to go. people need to look at other things, Readings FFP  losses, who they have signed for peanuts (effectively a free loan), Fulham deferring payment of Wilson for 2 years. All we ask for is a level playing field based on facts and not conjecture

    Absolutely, I think that Jake Barker is now leading on comms, plus efforts to reach out on fan forums, plus regular tweets and Facebook posts. Website is active - and is best place to keep in touch.
    All that is free and open to non-members. If you pay your £2 you can also join an active Rams Trust mailing list, where you can debate issues and make suggestions to the Board.
    I got two questions put forward in the latest list to the EFL. We must have them rattled as they are now changing their mind about answering them! ?

    How much influence do Rams Trust have/hope to have, Under MM very little to non, New owners could be in situ within a couple of months, They'll have their own board of directors, CEO, Secretary, Chairman/Woman ect ect, What is Rams Trust here for, How many members are there in Rams Trust, What have you been doing for the last 5/6 years, DCFC have been put into Admin where were you, Rams Trust come along every now and then with a brief letter/comment through our pretty poor local newspaper the DET.
