It's simply not good enough. Rooney doesn't feel confident in using them. And I can't blame him for that. We need more players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My overarching concern is that Rooney himself has said that if the takeover doesn't happen in the next couple of weeks then we have what we have. So he needs to start planning for worst case scenario and trying to utilise his assets better than he is doing at the moment rather than throw someone on with 5 minutes to go as this may be what he has at his disposal for the rest of the season.

We need a central defender who can head the ball and is comfortable bringing the ball out of defence, a Mount-type creative midfielder and a target man who has a bit of pace and knows where the net is....

I am concerned about the Holmes situation. Is he staying or is he going? We could have done with him on the bench yesterday but he was left out because he doesn't train well enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didnt Joe corrigan get booked for making out the penalty spot was further away than it was lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavesaRam Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 9 hours ago, G STAR RAM said: The only incident I can think that you are referring to is when Jozwiak was played in by Bielik and he literally nearly caught it. If youre going to criticise referees then say blatant offences like that arent free kicks not sure opinion is going to be looked upon as unbiased. Agree the ref was pretty poor yesterday, didnt let the game flow at all. Thought the yellows for Buchanan, Knight and Bielik were all harsh but he evened it up by not sending Bielik off for a blatant foul. Thought he got their disallowed goal decision right. Talking about the officials yesterday though just deflects away from how poor our own performance was. I agree with you. No matter what the ref was like, it had no real bearing on the result. We lost that game for ourselves, no-one else. And credit to Rotherham, as they did a job on us, and modified their approach when they realised that man-marking Beilik would take him out of the game and stop us playing.

DavesaRam Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 Did anyone else notice the tribute from Wathall's on Rams TV at half and full-time? There we were getting all frustrated and angry at the performance, and at the ref, and at all the other stuff we get upset about with football. And then suddenly this huge list of all the people associated with Derby County who passed away in 2010. This isn't everybody - just those who were connected with the Rams, and there were loads and loads of them. It rather puts things in perspective, doesn't it? Regardless of all the stuff we are going through right now, football is just a game, isn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do it every year and just because we can't get to the ground doesn't mean it shouldn't happen. When my brother in law died, who had been a season ticket holder for many years, it was very emotional to see his name on the boards at the ground and feel that his memory was being honoured by the club. I hope those bereaved last year feel a similar recognition and some comfort from it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavesaRam Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 A friend of ours who worked at the stadium passed away last year, but seeing her name on the tv screen was unexpected and caught us totally by surprise. In fact shock would be more accurate, and it was quite difficult to handle! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
