There is no doubt that he has his heart set on playing in the Qatar World Cup. After all in can be a once in a lifetime event . If he is going to win his place back in the Wales squad he will have to be playing for a top Championship team. Let’s pray it is with us That's a fair point, I wouldn't blame him for leaving in that case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparkle Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 It will be interesting to see where he ends up - I would actually expect him to leave on a free transfer at the end of the season jimtastic56 and Miggins 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tombo Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 (edited) Interestingly it's only dawned on me this morning that his output has been a whole lot better. Up front he seems to be getting the grip of leading the line. 3 goals in the last 3 and the nice assist for Ebosele in the game before that. Other than his Bournemouth goal, he's a lot less flashy and he's doing what he does well which is slotting right into where he needs to be and making defenders sweat with his work rate. If we don't expect worldies from him all the time and he's given responsibility to just spearhead our attacking moves he is able to contribute a whole lot more. He's been much less wasteful due to this also, can't count the amount of speculative efforts I've seen him smash over the bar from outside the box in the past which he does a lot less of. The armband might be a bit of genius after all Edited December 1, 2021 by Tombo Clarification ck-, angieram, jono and 1 other 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yani P Posted December 31, 2021 Share Posted December 31, 2021 You only have to look at how other teams fans view him..before and after the Bournemouth game their fans were saying they hope their club goes in for him in January..they think he is a fantastic player.. dcfc4ever, Premier ram and Carnero 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BramcoteRam84 Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 That was a captain’s performance yesterday. Incredible. Finally after 5 years fans chanting his name. If that is his last game then what a way to go out. He’s been excellent this season and in the second half of his Derby career (last season was heavily interrupted by injury). Hope he stays a bit longer and we can see more of that. SaffyRam, dcfc4ever, Premier ram and 6 others 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimtastic56 Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 Looks like Toms time at DCFC is about to come to an end. It could save us around £600,000 in wages. His time here has been a real rollercoaster ride. But he would leave us with some good goals to remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A chunk off the wagebill too, BUT, we can’t replace him… Edited January 25, 2022 by StaffsRam jimtastic56 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoyMac5 Posted February 2, 2022 Author Share Posted February 2, 2022 [Rooney:]"I have spoken to Tom, of course. Sometimes it is difficult when we are in this situation and you are out of contract in the summer and there are big offers from a personal point of view at stake, but Tom has never come in to me and said he wants to leave. He is fighting for us, he is fighting for the club, he is club captain and he is doing everything he can to try and help us."

Yani P Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 Top bloke..a proper Ram..proved so many people wrong this season and leading from the front..said it before he is our best player by a mile..so pleased he is staying to see the job through this season.

Taribo Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 Never liked the bloke, never liked Rooney either. But these two are absolutely our two most important people at the club by a long way and I don't think Tom would be fighting like he is if Rooney hadn't made him captain. I'm half tempted to bet that if Rooney stays at the end of the season then so will Tom - regardless of Championship or League One status. (Pie in the sky if we do go down and pretty sure I shot down someone on here for saying the same things a few months ago, but Wayne could just maybe persuade Tom a year to get us back up and load in some hefty League One promotion bonuses in his new contract..... maybe..)

You can’t expect a lad who’s next contract could be the biggest in his career to possibly risk it all in league 1. I think he’s shown respect in not forcing a jan move. We need to let him go and not hold him back, same with Knight. EtoileSportiveDeDerby 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You only have to go back 3 or 4 pages to see some of the comments as to why he’s entitled to move. Football is a fickle game at times, opinions change so quickly. Toms gone from so many piling in and slating him, to almost hero status in a few months. I’m just pleased he’s proven a few people wrong, he might not be on it 90 minutes, every game, but without him we’d be sunk and almost out of it by now. Whenever he goes, I just hope it’s with an happy ending. Boycie, Kathcairns, Rammy03 and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't beat a happy ending...... but in all seriousness Tom will want to resurrect his international career and i don't see him doing that with us especially if we drop a division.

We will need a John Gregory type who is prepared to drop down to league one ( third division) to help us if we end up in that league Zag zig 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
