DarkFruitsRam7 Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Really, really enjoyed that. No-one played badly, and many played well. Forsyth was my MOTM. Rock solid defensively and very good going forward. I’m starting to really enjoy focusing on watching Max Bird. He’s so composed and was a big part of our dominance today. Lovely player that can still improve. Rooney was excellent. His goal was outstanding, though perhaps only the second best goal of the night. Lawrence was very good, both in terms of graft and skill. All in all, a great evening. COYR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve How Hard? Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Wisdom is an absolute man mountain. Only saw it once but it appeared that he didn't even flinch when Clucas hit that free kick right at his bonce late on in the game. 99% of players would have ducked out of the way of that.

Finch Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Forking brilliant. If we don't keep Chris and the others who played tonight it will be a travesty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rooney mentioned him in his interview after the game too. That has to be such an advantage for his development. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CornwallRam Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Super performance. Nothing to criticise, loads to enjoy. Rooney pulled the strings. Holmes a dynamo. Vintage Martin. Fozzy's crossing and keeping Ince quiet. Bogle's wonder goal. Bird developing nicely. All positive tonight. The manager got it right this evening. Well done PC.

Jourdan Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 For those who say some of us are just negative, it’s just borne out of frustration. How can we play so well tonight and then in all probability perform completely differently a week later? So many people say the players aren’t good enough, but is it really true? Do we really need 6-10 players to compete better at this level? Performances like tonight’s are fantastic to see, but oddly we are left with more questions than answers.

MaltRam Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 As poor as we were on Tuesday, we were good tonight. The one touch possession stuff with Rooney (his best game) at the heart of it was immensely enjoyable. We weren't going down on Tuesday, we're not going up now, but well done ALL at the club.

ram59 Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Great performance and result from the team. As we won well, can I moan about the ref? As been typical of this season, we get a soft yellow for Bogle whereas their first yellow was more dangerous than Beliek's red was the other week, bad challenges on Rooney and Shinnie didn't get yellow. Also an American football block on Marriott right in front of the ref went unpunished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkFruitsRam7 Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Spare a thought for @BriggRam, who refused to watch the free kick in protest against Rooney covering his mouth while speaking to Waghorn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bald Eagle's Barmy Army Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Watching Bird play alongside Rooney is amazing to see. As a Dad myself, I can’t help but think how Birds Dad would be feeling right now in his son forming a partnership and a good one at that with one of the top players in the world. Hopefully he is watching him from above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Offensively we were good on Tuesday. It was defensively, from attack backwards, that we were poor. We switched off and got panicky. Tonight we looked more assured and calm. Hamer helped with his handling and judgment. We were just on it and the finishing showed confidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This has awful written all over it. 1-0 down, 65th minute, fans begging for Marriott and he will make the change. Waghorn and Lawrence as wingers - what do you expect? Martin on his own with no runners is pointless. Rooney will have no one to pick out. It’s a shameful line up - of course I want my words to eat me later but if I am Stoke, I’m laughing.

Despite having sheepshagging blood I found myself growing up in the neighbouring county of Staffordshire, tantalisingly close to the verdant lushness of Derbyshire, within sight of the verdure leafage of Doveridge and beyond to be precise. While winning against the gumps is always No.1, followed by the dirties of course, I have a special plea to your good selves on this damp, miserable, last day of European fraternity, to deliver a veritable tonic to a few hardy souls who have braved the gobby, clayheaded, chipeateng hordes for many a year. For some reason, the aforementioned forces of darkness seem to think they are invincible due to winning a couple of games which has led to an out break of hysteria only matched by the epidemic currently engulfing the city of Wuhan in China. Therefore, dear Phil and Wazzer, to ensure I can walk into work, nay, sashay into work, on Monday morning, may I implore you to play like demons tonight culminating with a splendid volley from your good self Wayne, to send the utch Rams back along the A50 pointing and laughing at the feral beasts from the concrete canyons. Yours hopefully, Utch. Want, Want, Want! Spoilt brat!! ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rev Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Imagine being Max Bird, playing in that game at this stage, then being casually name checked in England's highest ever goalscorers post match analysis as a plus point. 10ft tall won't cover it!
