FindernRam Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 At game time 4min .30 seconds Rampage announced Rangers have come alive in the last 5 minutes! Never one to correct a blooper; at game time 9 minutes he announced Rangers have come alive in the last 10 minutes. Personally I never listen to the drivel but my wife uses it to block out the neverending medical updates from the old biddy behind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alph Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 I prefer no coverage. The picture they paint is never the one I see when I watch the full 90. I know people like Ramage and his passion but Nigel Farage sounds passionate when he's talking poo so showing passion alone isn't admirable. I bet Dawes was crying when QPR took that penalty? ? Anyway, QPR were in the game from the start weren't they? The first 20 mins was hoofball between the teams? It was just a close, poor quality game. Looked like two midtable grafters.

RoyMac5 Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 It's all some of us long distance fans that can't 'travel' abroad have. Sometimes it's better than others, but Ed Dawes does my head in, he's a crap commentator - why does he scream so loudly when the opposition have a chance on goal? Plus he encourages the worst out of Ramage (who occasionally has an interesting point to make). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was hoping someone, anyone, would just put a foot on it and calm stuff down but oh no... we either passed it backwards because their was no movement, or didn't even look and still passed it backwards or just petered out because we had no-one to hold the ball up for us (Martin). I find RD quite irritating these days. Way, way too much Burton, etc coverage. I'm about as interested in them as I am in Cowdenbeath and listening to NC 'errrrrmmmmm' just makes me want to smash the radio. I don't mind him as a bloke or a manager but that constant 'errmmmm' is as irritating as that rising inflection as if being asked a question that some people still do.

Millenniumram Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 The two muppets were still on about us playing a 352 even after interviewing Cocu where he basically said that we didn’t! Honestly, they get their minds set on something and it blinds them to what’s actually happening on the pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nottingram Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 I remember after the game Ramage said “I’m not doing my job well if I don’t say it like it is.” Only half of the sentence was necessary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThePrisoner Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 I hear Ed Dawes is undertaking a refereeing course from Derbyshire FA so I look forward to how unbearable he's going to become on wrong decisions etc in the coming months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Srg Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 Pair of them are absolutely hopeless. There’s no wonder there’s an overwhelmingly negative slant within our fan base when you have those who haven’t seen the game getting their opinion from these two.

RamLad1884 Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 Trying not to just sound like I'm slating him here, but Ramage is an awful commentator, the best ones stick to one view and either argue it or accept argument gracefully. But Ramage follows the pitchforks. Last week when we looked great he followed the crowd in saying how great we were, yet Saturday he said we've been awful all season. Sounds like a fan who's been given the opportunity to vent each week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andicis Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 Can't stand Radio Derby, they don't describe what actually happens during the game and they're always so overly negative that there is no point listening to them. Ramage is clueless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePrisoner Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 While I'm no fan of Radio Derby myself, I will say other local BBC stations offer MUCH MUCH worse coverage for football on the radio. Best of a bad bunch really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never been able to get match coverage on the internet from Warwickshire and have previously been reduced to sitting on the roof with an old AM radio pointing it in the general direction of hometown.
