Juan, I usually enjoy your posts, this time, well it’s one of those when there is an awkward pause and the anchor says ... and now back to the studio ??

SKRam Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 I recall when it was announced the look on Marriotts face as he left training. That suggested there’ll be some good times ahead to me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As exciting as it is having him here (I still remember watching him play for england at old trafford a fair few times when he was immense) I do think the move is littered with potential problems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blondest Goat Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 It's a no lose situation for me. Can't really see how we can get any worse but at the same time I really don't buy into the idea that the other players are suddenly going to get much better by his mere presence alone. He certainly didn't have that effect when he moved to Everton. Gotta be good for the younger players though to have him around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plymouthram Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 I see they are stating that his first game for the Rams could be on January 2nd, a Thursday night fixture against current bottom club Barnsley. Well thats going to boost the attendance for a cold January night. Guess what, its also down on sky tv for a live game, the other game is Swansea v Charlton. Sky could get the biggest audience ratings for a Championship game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would have been played at the traditional time on New Year's Day and we wouldn't have needed Rooney to boost the crowd. I give not a fig for Sky's ratings and fervently hope Cocu says he's not quite ready and doesn't play him! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
