RoyMac5 Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 Proud of the squad and management. What a really good show from the lads today. We didn't really get the luck we deserved though. How do we all stay positive over what is going to be a very long, difficult season for us. Feeling worried over what might be to come. #COYR David Graham Brown 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hintonsboots Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 We didn’t deserve to lose away from home to a team predicted to finish top 6. We only had 10 men for half the game and conceded a bizarre penalty. We will win enough games to overturn the 12 point penalty, survival depends on the EFL. r_wilcockson, Miggins, Foxy Ram and 8 others 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ilkleyram Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 There are times when certain types of players step up to the mark and provide the inspiration that teammates and fans need. They sometimes aren’t necessarily the most technically gifted footballers but their drive, mental and physical strength and willingness to give all for the team (even if they’re not actually playing) give truth to the feeling that anything can be overcome. I give you the Scottish Pirlo, one Mr Graeme Shinnie, who did not deserve to be on the losing side today and gave everything in the cause not to be. While he’s in and around the squad we should always remain positive. Foxy Ram, 1967Ram, Miggins and 9 others 11 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoyMac5 Posted September 25, 2021 Author Share Posted September 25, 2021 I'm just having a bit of a wobble - we've looked really quite solid with a good bit of attacking (you know I'm gonna find my old 'we're a 20 goal striker away from a good squad' thread)! But we need our luck to shift just slightly... #COYR California Ram., jimtastic56, AbuDerbyDave and 1 other 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alram Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 (edited) on the pitch has been a shining light this season for me, a chance to get away from all the drama for 90 minuites. yes we have had late drama in a few games but the pride has always been there from the playing staff. i genuinely dont think we could be asking any more of the playing squad than what we have recieved and that goes for rooney too. remember at the start of the season we were written off by all as possibly the worst team to play at this level Edited September 25, 2021 by alram 1967Ram, Kathcairns, Foxy Ram and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are seasons when you think that all the luck, the 50/50 decisions, just go your way. It doesn’t feel that we’ve had that for some time.

StarterForTen Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 (edited) Just accept what we are right now and enjoy the ride! Take pride in the performance of a limited squad and a fast-learning management team that all appear to be respecting the badge on their shirts. Realistically, what’s the worst that can happen - we get relegated. But really who cares! League One is just the same circus, different towns in which to pitch the Big Top.

Given the limitations on transfers, we are performing much better than expected. We're only a Stretton step up or a Lawrence hot streak away from winning more than we lose. Bench looked pretty strong today & Bielik still to return. And your man Rooney is playing an absolute blinder. Never thought you'd hear me say that eh ?

Abu Derby Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 We need to keep fighting to the end of every game regardless of what happens elsewhere. This spirit that the team and management are showing right now will burn on into next season and the one after that whereupon we will grow together and rebuild, stronger than before. I really believe this. We as fans must keep up the tremendous support for this great football club.

It is going to be tough but we're playing the right way & creating openings. The more we play this way, the better we'll get. Its the dullest cliche in the world but one game at a time probably apt at the minute. So many off-field issues that can affect things & it'll drive us mad worrying about it all. Onto Reading...lets back the lads to the rafters again & get out of these negative points ?

Show that Derby can be an attractive place to play if you're either... - a top pro in the autumn of their career who can still justify a short term deal - ambitious lower league /young players looking to step up Crowd/facilities /Wazza all have a part to play.
