St.AlbansRam Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Okay we were *****, completely *****! We don't deserve to go up when it's been in our hands all this time, don't blame Keogh or Mascarell or Christie because the whole team failed to deliver this season (bar a few obviously). However as we saw last season the team who deserves to go up isn't always the team that will win. QPR were expected to breeze the championship like us but found themselves in the playoffs and jammily winning in the final against some deserving team late on.All I'm saying is- 'yeah we're ****' but the minute we stop believing is the minute the season ends for us so be negative all you want but remember that there are still games to play and possibly 3 more at the end of the season which could send us up (or leave us brokenhearted again in the 89th minute) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cam the Ram Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Wouldn't fancy our chances against any of Boro, Norwich, Bournemouth or Watford in the play offs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gypsy Ram Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 If we can hang onto a playoff place and we have a fully fit Martin and Thorne then we have a chance like last season... Oh wait a minute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r4derby Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 I have not lost the faith yet, at this point I would take second. But can't see it. We're defo in playoffs, and tonight is only the third time we have lost to any of the top 8. My fear is this same team going to Wolves without any of the key men returning (Martin, Bent, Thorne, Useless) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wixman1884 Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 I'd probably take 2nd at this point also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingsy1884 Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 The play-offs are a lottery we know that more than most and have been on both ends of the spectrum.Comparing us with QPR though last season I dont think we are really the same they had more quality and overall more of a backbone to dig out results than this Derby side this season.I say aim for the autos failing that just a bit of blind faith and a load of luck in the play offs.

JAT Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Forget places at this point. We just need to get the most out of every game. That could still see us in the top two yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kernow Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 To be honest if offered 1st place right now I'd probably take it... Of course we'd take bloody second! We haven't won in 5, we don't look like scoring, have two of the top 8 in our next two games and are missing 5 players who would all be squad players. We're not a million miles from 7th and could find ourselves in 7th by the start of April.We need to start winning again and it needs to happen fast.

cloughandtaylor Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 We looked like a mid table side , short on ideas, lacking any quality, the Boro goal also reminded me of the Norwich goal, they just slipped the ball past us with ease.We have blown it now and to be frank, with the performance like that again on Friday I cannot see us getting anything from Wolves.

Rammeister Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 My concern is that even when we have the key players back confidence will be shot. Also, momentum -so important in football, is not with us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YorkshireRam Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Also, not sure we are capable of doing a QPR.Their side was built around a solid back 4, they didn't concede many goals and could dig in to produce results.We are the polar opposite, our defence has always been suspect but we've simply been able to out-score our opposition. The only reason we're struggling now is because the injuries have truly revealed our defensive inadequacies. Can't see us getting anything out of the season now, any hope we have left is based on a miraculous turn around in form, which based on recent displays is a long shot. I think McClaren is partly to blame, the failure to change the system of play to fit the available batch of players is unacceptable, especially when the 433 system is centered around a striker with the ability to act as a target man. We have fitted square pegs in round holes with Russell upfront in that system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
