cosmic Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 Remember when we were the darlings of the Championship and we had a pinned thread called "Views from the Outside"? That seemed to disappear pretty quickly when opinions started turning sour... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really harsh on Pearson to not let him tackle Cardiff. Of course we might lose, but we could also win or draw, that's football. Why is it harsh? We do not know why he was suspended. Maybe, just maybe, he did something that he deserved to be suspended for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derbados Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 We laugh at the shower down the road for having blind faithers, some of their fans still think Fawaz is good for their club ffs. No doubt Mel has done some wonderful things with the academy but he's also evidently a complete control freak who gets to involved because he's a fan. You should absolutely be worried about what the press are saying about us, we're not f*****g Milwall, "no one likes us we dont care" attitude is complete b******s, I want my club to be in the media for all the right reasons, at the minute its just embarrassing.

Dimmu Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 " The Perception Of The Club From Outside Is Not Favourable" Gosh. Glad I've read it, otherwise I wouldn't known. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might not matter, however if the feeling is that we are a badly run club, then it may have an impact on players wanting to sign or managers allowing players to come here on loan. It was equally down to their fans and the way the manager/players conducted themselves. You're kidding yourself if you think players are bothered about anything other than who will pay them the most money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely all professional football players give 100% every week for the love of their club and not just in it for the money???

Anag Ram Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 Even on this forum there is discord bordering on animosity amongst fans of the club. We all have a part to play in restoring Derby County to its former glory by supporting the club from tea lady to owner. Our job is to cheer on whoever takes the pitch. It's up to others to pick and organise them into a winning combination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G STAR RAM Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 Can't believe people really fall for the:- 'It's a great club with a great history. As soon as I saw the facilities and spoke to the gaffer there is no other club that I wanted to sign for. We've got a great bunch of lads and I can't wait to get started and push for promotion'.

We beat Preston away with Pearson and they are better than Cardiff. Pearson chose the team at Cardiff anyway. Don't confuse me with facts, I'm a Rams fan!

The **** ones maybe, however those players that are in demand, would probably pick another option if available, if only on the basis that they would get more than a handful of games under the manager that signed them.

Well we are a Championship club so don't really need to worry about that. I am guessing that Bendtner signed for Forest because of their history, facilities and manager...

The team, the board, the CEO & the fans all singing from the same hymn sheet & doing things the proper way, dare I say it The Derby Way. I appreciate what he's done with the academy and infrastructure of the club, but I really wish Mr Morris had come in and stuck to the plan The Y**ks had. For all the money he's spent on the 1st team, are we any better than the side who played in that final??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough you don't think it matters, whereas I believe that the perception of being a well run club with a good reputation is better than not being.

We might have won it but it is far from certain, based the the previous few matches with a depressing losing run. Don't buy this 'Pearson chose the team ' partly cos we had injuries that forced selection, but its the formation and motivation that counted.

BathRam72 Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 It is my guess that if Pearson was really suspended two hours before the game as we are led to believe, then he would have already picked the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have thought he would have had better clubs than Forest after his signature yes. Of course it is better but I would imagine stories about a drone flying over Moor Farm will have very little bearing on the future of Derby County.

Really well lets hope they turn around with our next low profile manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
