Caerphilly Ram

I asked a bloke I know who’s a season ticket holder at Cardiff, he said there’s normally a pay on the day option for the home end. Not sure about away fans. The club will announce it later in the week if that is an option I would think. Sorry if that’s not much help.

I’m looking forward to this, it’s “local” for me. Have been a few times in recent years with my bluebird mates and had to sit on my hands in the home end, secured a ticket in the away end this time to soak up the atmosphere of our excellent Away following….and to join in ? ? 

This is for info.
This is for match-goers.
This is posted out of the goodness of my heart, from one footy fan to another, in the hope that nobody traipses to PPS... or any other stadium for that matter... only to find they will not be allowed in.  I repeat... NOT ALLOWED IN!
Comments regarding the politics behind it, or opinions on the rights, wrongs, or indifferences of it are not welcome here, and I would request that you keep such comments tucked firmly away inside any orifice that you may have in the vicinity of your perineum!

This is the latest guidance on the Cardiff City website, suggests arriving 2 hours early. https://www.cardiffcityfc.co.uk/news/cardiff-city-stadium-update-covid-guidelines-post-111021
I went to one of the internationals at the stadium last month and we got there about 45 mins before kick off and had no real issue getting in, slightly bigger queues at the turnstile than you’d normally expect. I guess the advice is don’t leave it too late to get there.

I always think it must be really special when you're a Rams supporter from far away playing your local side. Enjoy!

I was impressed with his all round play today, looks to have a bit of pace and also good physicality for a young lad, he wasn’t phased playing against their more experienced centre backs. Would like to see us persist with him and Stretton along with CKR, maybe time to say “thank you for your efforts” and let Baldock go. Save the wages or use them to bring in another freebie to bolster the squad.

They spelt duck wrong!

Sound team performance always looked like a single goal would settle it. Special mention though to Joswiak who looked like he belonged and Alsop who is much better with the ball at his feat. Also another good crowd and atmosphere great support astonishing given the apparent hopelessness of our situation. Credit too to the Blackpool fans for there support ?

Jozwiak I think, seems to be him and Knight down the right hand side. Though he’s roaming around a bit too. I like the formation at the mo, need to make more of the forward momentum. Ref seems poor with his decision making for both sides, not in control of things at all

Good result considering the circumstances and nice to see a system that makes better use of the players available.
It may not have been by design but hopefully the management take this onboard.

Good win for us in a scrappy game.
Both teams looked very toothless in attack, very happy with the win ?

so much better passing and movement this half..much slicker great tempo

The Polish International version of Kamil has woken up ? Much better form him last few minutes.

If we could move the ball quicker, we could take these easily. All first half we were so predictable and weren't moving enough.

If the EFL could give everyone a full explanation of what those rules are and why they have been applied it would be helpful but the basics are you will play every game with both hands tied behind your back whilst wearing a potato sack around your feet on your way to the relegation we so desired.

After 8 weeks of silence, DET are today reporting that Mel Morris can be heard on Desert Island Discs this coming Sunday on BBC Radio 4
https://www.derbytelegraph.co.uk/sport/football/mel-morris-Derby-county-desert-island-discs-6322992
In a revealing insight, Mel talks about himself loads, his favourite book (Accounting for Dummies) and what he considers gives him most pleasure (having his ego massaged). Interspersed during an hour of denial, Mel also shares his favourite music, an eclectic mix of sounds from his past, totally oblivious at all times to the irony of his choices:
1) Money, Money, Money - Abba
2) The Gambler - Kenny Rogers
3) Money too tight to mention - Simply Red
4) Sorry seems to be the hardest word - Elton John
5) Taxman - Beatles
6) Liquidator - Harry J All Stars
7) It wasn't me - Shaggy
8) Don't look back in anger - Oasis

As heartbreaking as it is to lose all this young talent, we have to do anything we can to secure the one and only goal at the moment....
Survival of the club.
Whether you trust Rooney, the Administrators, Kirchner, Rammie or anyone else, we are powerless to do anything about it. So, as difficult as it is - and believe me, I'm struggling - we just have to sit patiently by and hope that those who do have some say in the matter secure the best possible deal for the football club to exist, in the first instance, and then to move forward.
Derby County is what matters here. ?
