ramboy63 Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 No goals in last 3 league games and only a debatable penalty in the one previous to that,forget the cup game they always bring up strange results. Is it the talk of being linked to so many new signings that is again unsettling the players as January seems to be a comman month were we just crumble. Last night proved we are still lacking in certain areas and if Sheff Weds win this weekend a gap is now starting to appear between us and the play off places Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pearl Ram Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Well well, @curtains you've been fairly quiet by your standards just lately, a couple of dodgy results/performances and you're back having a pop. It must have been a pain in the arse for you to see us climb the league from the third bottom your preferred manager left us in to (albeit briefly) the play off places.

He has had his honeymoon period at Derby and now it starts in earnest for him . He will need a few seasons to get it right and prove he's the right man to get us promoted What a manager does at one club has no effect or guarantee it will happen at another. The 1 thing I had hoped for after Pearson's terrible spell here is that people would finally get that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mac needs time at Derby but that doesn't mean he will be a success. I wanted Gary Rowett at Derby but he might have failed. Up the Rams. Time will tell if Sam and Mel have got it right for DCFC .

I am confident we will have more positive days than negative between now and the end of the season,i still think we will make the play offs. Managerial changes dont help and I agree Pearson is probably the one who made the biggest hash of it. Clement I think some of the signings were forced on us (johnson/butters) because of injury although i have yet to see any value in buying blackman and camara. My only gripe with your post is Steve did not decide to bog off to newcastle, he had publicly committed to Derby at the end of the season only for Mel to pull the trigger and sack him, he only then went to newcastle, his failure was not doing so earlier which may have resulted in him staying who knows.

We are not physically or mentally strong for promotion. Russel and Christie are poor. Bryson is past his best big time and needs replacing. Need at least 3 good players not another camara or blackman. Learn form you mistakes Derby buy 2 quality and not 6 average players Maybe Pearson was right ,but was going about it the wrong way.

No quite the opposite I've been delighted we have done well under McClaren . Hope we get back on track again soon. Last 3 league games have been under par.

ramboy63 Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 3 Big games coming up and we need to get back to winning ways sharpish Our last 2 performances in particular have been concerning as we are getting out thought and over run in midfield this as now caused us to have 2 sending offs in last two games We came a distant second in a two horse race last night and we need defenders back from injury to also make the back four more settled.Reading at home next and watching there game the other night they also did not look any thing special.So i will be there and hoping for 3 points Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So why didn't we hold out for the compensation then? Why didn't he go after the season finished when they wanted him for the last game of the season? Why did he say 2 days before he was sacked that he was staying and wanted to get us promoted and finish the job he started? Let me guess, because he was staying, until he was sacked.

BobbyD Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 It really isn't a difficult conundrum to sort The rams haven't enough enforcer/winners in the squad to ever get up. especially in midfield Steve is nervous of getting such players in his squad because he hasn't got a strong enough character to impose on such guys Its horses for courses and we are where we are. Its not too bad, quite enjoyable , but will never get us to the Prenmier, even if thats what we want Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
