GrimsbyRam Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 Lowe was certainly not busting a gut to get back last 15. Leeds first to most things today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodley Ram Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 I stayed to the end, thought we have good support until the 3rd goal, why people leave with 15 mins to go escapes me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rams always showed effort... the fans were pathetic. I thought the fans stuck with them to be honest especially when the back four played like they’ve never met each other before.

SIWY Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 Wasn’t at the game but it seemed like the fans didn’t get on the players’ backs as much as they have done in the past. Think that in previous seasons there would have been a lot of booing and all sorts of abuse at players. It’s not something I could ever personally do but I suppose a lot left early out of frustration. Didn’t think the support was awful. Think most realise this team needs time.

Tamworthram Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 FFS, I'm getting really tired of saying this. Our support is really no different to the vast majority of other clubs. Whilst I never leave early, I bet the majority of stadiums would have emptied to a similar extent when your team is 4:1 down at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OoooMarkWright Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 I have to say I thought the gate was quite poor today. 27,000 against Leeds after all this optimism was a bit disappointing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BramcoteRam84 Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 Thought the fans were good today by and large. Tried to rally the team both times we went behind, third goal was the killer and sucked the life out of them compounded by the 4th so quickly after. Over as a contest then, I didnt leave but don’t blame fans for leaving early Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There wasn't any anger towards the players or Frank obviously....just a sense of disappointment I thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavesaRam Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 The most influential factor was Leeds being first to the ball for virtually the entire match. It made was look like we couldn't be bothered. That isn't the case, and most put a lot of effort in, but it was effort in the wrong areas. What happened to the high-pressing, in-your-faces attitude which was so fruitful in the Southampton and Wolves matches? Several times under previous managers we have tried this approach and prove it to be successful, only to put it back on the shelf for the next match (and even during the same match on occasions). I was really excited pres-season because I thought that it was part of the package which Frank and Jody had brought with them, but it seems we left it in the luggage hold of the team coach on the way to Reading, because we didn't see sight nor sound of it at the Madjeski Stadium, and it certainly wasn't seen today, I thought the lacklustre, can't-be-arsed attitude had been consigned to the rubbish bin, but it was there for all to see, hence Leeds being first to virtually every ball today.

TroyDyer Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 My night would have been so much better if we'd lost 4-1 at home to Leeds, but the stadium has still been full at full time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrsRam Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 Hope everyone in the SWU that went when they scored their 4th can’t get a ticket for the playoffs I won’t apologise for saying something like it at the time .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
