Keep up the good work. Can I make a suggestion for a Craig Rammage soundboard app with all his most profound phrases and sayings. I think it would be a hit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone on here agrees with me all the time. It's a bit of a waste of time having a message board really - all the replies are just 'lol'.

I have never understood the negativity towards radio Derby, I suppose it's same with negativity towards Derby City Council or the Derby Telegraph, it seems to be the Derby way. The commentary is always top class, the summarising is great and you three work well together. Here here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anag Ram Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 I would suggest a direct question to the club asking why, when we have a wealthy owner and a desperate need for new players, we have been so reluctant to sell or buy in this transfer window? Could we have a definitive answer on FFP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cosmic Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 It's not @OwenB87 fault that it's always the nutjobs that tend to write to the media with their mental and often angry points of view. It's always been this way, way before Owen, way before Twitter, way before the Premier League. And it's not resigned to football either. Give the bloke a break he's just doing his job, and a bloody good one if you ask me. How he manages to handle the amount of crap he gets from Derby fans on a daily basis is beyond me. Good on him for signing up to the forum and setting the record straight on an outright lie that's had some losers questioning his integrity.

Get Rammage involved and Ed, you could have your own thread, now that would be interesting. I think something special is happening here. He has used the forum correctly, responded directly to people making comments in the thread they were made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mostyn6 Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 1 hour ago, Saul Pimpson said: Thanks for responding, however using last night's talk-in as an example, in what world do you think tweets to the extent that "nobody in the entire squad is good enough" and "we need to get rid of Hughes, Martin & Russell ASAP" bears any relevance to the majority view? I have no desire to check out the @BBCDerbySport timelime, particularly not on a match day, listening to the nonsense you read out from these so called supporters is more than enough for me. The point is if I wanted to know what was being said on Twitter then I'd go on Twitter, I don't see why the nonsense that's posted on Twitter needs to be forced down the ears of those of us who have no interest in the Twitterati Brigade - it has the same relevance as some of the nonsense we spout on here, yet you don't read that out do you Oh dear god. So you have no desire to be part of it, get involved or even put you own view across, but aside of your general apathy, you're happy to slate those that do, whilst of course having "no interest". If the only people to speak up have the same view, then that's the majority view, in the same way if those that can be bothered to vote, all vote the same way, that becomes the majority vote. If you have no desire to validate the wheres and why-fors then you are not in position to comment. It seems you have no interest in anything, except moaning. I imagine you was one of those that jumped on the Jonathon Ross and Russell Brand scandal a few years back, just to have a moan. 1 hour ago, OwenB87 said: It's a phone-in/fans discussion show.

Owen, no need to defend yourself or the format, it's been the same for 20 years, and will be the same in 20 years. The debate is always livelier in bad times, and the only people during those times are either the "it's the worst game I've EVER seen" brigade, or the "I've not been to the game, but I think they...." brigade.

MackworthRamIsGod Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 I remember the days when we were lucky to get commentary on half a game, also the days where u could barely understand the commentary due to the radio quality. To think we have perfect clarity, commentary on every game, all game, how lucky we are hey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And by the way on average every 7-8 years we are very good in between we are very bad and then we are bang average most of the time so I am enjoying being a resident top 6 side.

To respond to your first paragraph, I can assure you that I have sent TEXTS to RD in the past, particularly during the latter end of last season in defence of Darren Wassall. Funnily enough they were rarely read out amidst the mass of tweets read out during the Twitter meltdown show. I ask again, why are the posts on Twitter deemed relevant enough to read out on a BBC Radio station, yet the posts on this forum not? Load of nonsense.
