We aren’t even favourites to beat Bristol City so surely they should be at least the same as us! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Horrible moment. Watched the last few minutes of their debacle today and their sickening fans began singing 'Que sera, sera...'. They haven't got past us yet. They are likely to face us if we make it into the play offs. I would absolutely love it if we played them and beat them over the two legs. Be sweet revenge for spygate, their arrogant management and their even more arrogant fans. I was listening to Talksport on the way to the Birmingham game before they got turned over by Wigan. The pundits were droning on about how the Premier League needs Leeds and its 'wonderful' fans. Don't make me laugh. Come on Rams. Get to the play offs, play the dirties and do them over in honour of Brian (RIP). Could be SPYGATE to CRYGATE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerTedd Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 Whatever happens, I think I want whoever’s in 6th to win it. I will laugh so hard when Leeds lose, vuelas leaves and they go back to be mid-table also fans, and when villa lose, get ducked by ffp, run out parachute payments and settle into trying to break ours and forests record as the longest serving championship team. Don’t mind wba too much, but they can balls for sacking Big Dave. Boro can duck off too, hope they don’t finish 6th. Bristol aren’t so bad, and they’ve been there or there about like us recently. Kindred close but no cigar spirits. It’ll be us though. I’ll be gutted if we don’t win it though. Gutted that we didn’t win, and gutted that, specifically, any one of those other teams did.

IlsonDerby Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 Form table for last 6 games if anyone hasn’t seen it. Doesn’t feel like we’ve been the fourth best team recently but the results don’t lie ??♂️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we do make it, then the odds are against us. They are cup games, though, anything could happen. Of course we are on the verge. It is is our hands. We are ahead of Boro on goal difference and have a game in hand. We are also one point and have a better goal difference than Bristol City. As long as we don’t lose that game in hand and then match or better their results then we are sixth. I can see that optimism is rampant throughout our fans. Instead of slagging Lampard off like some have why don’t we see the positives in a rookie manager getting us to sixth in the most difficult league.

Boro can only reach 73, and assuming our draw was with Bristol, they too could then only amass 7 more, taking them to 73. Obviously, if we don't draw with Bristol... but still get those 7 points... then even better... as they could then only reach 72! LOL! The goal difference would/could only kick in if we get 6 pts or less, from the remaining 9 available. ... I think!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would effectively make the game against West Brom a dead rubber (save for boros fleeting hope that we might loose it 10-0). here I was holding out for the hope that we might just get to the last game with something to play for. Now I’m starting to believe we could get to the last game with nothing to play for, but in a good way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sawley_ram Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 I'm buzzing for the next three games... anything can happen. Everything still within reach and of course DCFC leave it right until the very, very end before we'll know. It'll be a tense and wild few weeks coming up and all we can do is stop whinging and get behind the club and the lads on the pitch. I've got my Derbyshire Ram flag hoisted up on the shed COYR!

Rampage Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 Man City 14 players used last night cost £441 million. Man Utd 14 players used cost £427 million. Looked £400 million difference in quality. What the Man City 14 players could be sold for is mind-boggling. The motivation and work rate of such talented players at City is a joy to behold. Getting the best out of players is difficult. Frank Lampard will have a collection of players that are highly motivated and vedy highly talented. Let us hope that it is at Pride Park. We are getting glimpses of it. Who had heard of Fikayo and thought he would be player of the year? Who would have started and stuck with Bogle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Remy the hare Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 I can’t stop looking at the table and fixtures, working out conundrums. Looking at the remaining fixtures Boro are favourites for 6th to me cos despite us and Bristol having a game in hand, boro’s two remaining games are against Reading at home, who are safe, and then at Rotherham who will very likely have been relegated by the last game either by losing at West Brom or Millwall picking something up against Bristol. That would mean Boro finish on 73 points, meaning we'd need to pick up at least 6 points - if not 7- from our last three depending on goal difference. Ours and Bristol’s 3 games are very awkward. I do think if we can make it confidence will be high and I’d put money on us beating Leeds. COYR ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rampage Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 I feel that FL will be reasonably happy with the season if we make the play offs considering injuries, financial considerations and that it is his first year as a manager. I feel that he has done well with loans, bringing Bogle in and especially with the fans' support at away games. He has a supervised a clear out and may get a few quid to spend next year. The Rams players want promotion. Have they been offered another year if we get promoted? ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They came here in play offs and won 3 nil then 3-2 on aggregate. Hopefully, Leeds would be a similar scenario. Can pigs fly? If not, why not? Beating Leeds would be nice. ?✈️?

Remy the hare Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 Bookings are offering 22/1 for Swansea to make the playoffs. There is a scenario were we beat Bristol lose to Swansea and West Brom and the Swans get in the POs with 71pts from nowhere. I should stop looking at conundrums and say what will be will be ?♂️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
