RadioactiveWaste Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 I dunno, I think in Clem-view there were plenty of good performances where the team did enough without being threatened particularly. They weren't exciting perhaps, only turning it on for 20mins, or spells as required. I sort of think no 90 minute performance is as much "it's been so dull this season" being expressed. But then again, we've had plenty of poor shows without too many breathtaking ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North East Ram Posted April 1, 2016 Author Share Posted April 1, 2016 Clem was a results merchant and until his last few matches he was succeeding in winning as opposed to entertaining. His formula worked. There were lots of matches where I left feeling non plussed cos we'd won but not convinced / entertained. But I just thought that's the ruthless nature of success to achieve the end goal. I think we would've achieved success and then sorted the aesthetics later on. How Arsenal fans used to suffer '1 nil to the Arsenal' before they became entertaining winners. He's gone now and I wish him well. He seemed a good guy but not to Mel's liking. Or many Derby fans. But now I'm enthused because Brog is on his way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dimmu Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 Guidolin propably will be replaced this summer so Rodgers would be high on their wishlist. Whatever happens, it should be interesting summer. Once again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EssendonRam Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 On 28 March 2016 at 04:28, Seth's left foot said: It would serve the wrist slashers right if Mel has a big appointment lined up for the summer and DW is the obvious stopgap, i'm personally looking forward to the future... But that's one of the good things about apparently being a wrist-slasher...it's a win-win! If Mel appoints a donkey, our judgement is proven correct. If he appoints Jesus, it was either (a) our sheer force of intellect which persuaded him that DCFC fans are not a pack of garden-variety numpties who'll swallow an absurd appointment (like, say, a previous messiah-like manager's son or even the owner's mate of many years; or (b) a great result for the club so why would you try to score childish points over it. More seriously, can't one criticise Mel's decisions where they warrant criticism / questioning without being accused of either wrist-slashers or ungrateful.

We can question and criticise by all means (that's why we're on this forum) but some of the repetitive moaning is grating when not all of the facts are usually known ie Clement's sacking.

jagerbob Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 why Big Brendan.. When he isn't particularly big? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North East Ram Posted April 4, 2016 Author Share Posted April 4, 2016 There's a big Brendan (O'Shaunassey) in early 80s Fools and Horses so all Brendan's are big Brendan. To me anyway. When Brog arrives he'll be big as in big achievements at Derby obviously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
