SuperDerbySuperRams Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 One thing that has just come to me, is do we finally have a set piece taker? It's something we've really lacked over recent years. Deep free kicks with a bit of whip! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EnigmaRam Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 @RamsPolls do you actually know anything about our players or football in general. Blackman had a 100% record of 10 put of 10 penalties scored for reading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there are good things to come from Blackman, but at the moment he can hardly be called our penalty taker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Barring Hanson the same time as anyone else, has an assist and done twice as much to deserve the shirt then Russell...................so far. but I take your point, 6 months out injured last season does discount him for taking penalties and getting game time.

I agree that he's been one of our better performers in the three behind the striker so far. Based on what we've seen he'd be battling Bennett for the spot on the right. I'd love for him to come good and be our penalty taker next season. He doesn't seem to miss them, and we must have the worst conversion rate in the EFL.

AlfretonRam84 Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Just me that feels like this will be another 15/16 all over again? Loads of signings that look promising/are good but end up bottling. Really hope I'm wrong but I can't help but think that the trend will continue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't have that sort of negativity in the Amber Valley district . No in all seriousness this time around the big difference is that we have a manager I trust and imagine the squad will buy into his ideas too.

May Contain Nuts Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 If Wassall hadn't completely f****** up the tactics in the home leg against Hull, you possibly wouldn't be looking at it in that light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only appreciate how bad that went now. We finally had Martin, Thorne, Hughes, Bryson, Ince, Keogh, Shackell and co playing well together, only for it all to go massively tits up in the space of two games, Ipswich (H) and Hull (H).
