Gritstone Ram Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 I’ve been here before and normally it take two seasons to get out but I reckon we can do it in one. When you think we wouldn’t have been relegated without a points deduction then I think we’re on a sound footing to get back up. Rammy03 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ram a lamb a ding dong Posted July 14, 2022 Author Share Posted July 14, 2022 27 minutes ago, Gee SCREAMER !! said: They seemed to take every player we had on trial and give them a contract, except the best one. Shame he didn't get to stay. If he had we'd still be in the championship. 4.5 k a week is a tremendous wage in everyday life but nowt for the championship nowadays. I still suspect we sold Shinnie to facilitate Jagielkas wage till the end of the season and then got shafted at the last minute, losing two players and retaining none. Who was that???

Steadybreeze Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 No not at all, we are lucky to even be competing next season. The new owners need to get to grips with the everyday running of the club again and at the same time make us competitive, hopefully make players young and old want to come and play for the club again. More than happy to see us finish in the top 8 or so with Rosenior developing a style of play & good young additions to the academy. ramit, jimtastic56, BarrowRam and 4 others 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DesertRam Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 I think we will finish inside the top 6 (not expecting it mind) we will have a couple of draws, a slow start is to be expected - but come the end of the season the momentum will be with us, whether we can achieve the ultimate is a dream, but if we are in the top 6 it is possible ? However, History says we will be there at least a couple of seasons Ellafella and jimtastic56 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ossieram Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 I will be happy if we're competitive and not struggling near the bottom. Hans Datdo-Dishes, Pikeyram, Crewton and 7 others 3 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramifications Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 I wouldn't say we were the best team in the league but we are in the top one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PistoldPete Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 No I would not be surprised at all . I would be disappointed if we finish outside the playoffs though. jimtastic56 and DCFC1388 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RamLad1884 Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 Top 6 to be realistic. There are some strong teams and some teams with momentum. We're not used to this league so I'd expect the first 6 months to be about adapting. jimtastic56 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BriggRam Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 No, while I am overjoyed with our transfers, I feel the team needs time to get, I'll be happy with comfortably staying up, top 6 would be a bonus Ewetube, LeedsCityRam and jimtastic56 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ewetube Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 No expectations for anything, just the knowledge that things will be better this season than last. Results are sort of secondary after sweating until a few weeks ago and receiving what felt like a last-minute reprieve from execution. Hope is good, but expectations of glory doesn't sit well with me following what we've been through.

FlyBritishMidland Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 I don’t really have an expectation and I certainly won’t be disappointed if we’re outside the top 2, or the top 6. This is a total reset. New owner, new club structure, new manager, a new squad in a new division. It’s fairly safe to say that most of the 18 named against Oxford will be new to the club/squad. They’ll have only played 3 games together, bearing in mind a lot of new signings didn’t start last week. It’ll take time to gel and get some momentum as Liam tweaks it to get the best formation, best starting 11 and adapts to the division. And as others have said, we’ll be a target for everyone and teams will raise their game. norwichram, Ewetube, jimtastic56 and 1 other 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i-Ram Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 For all the faff above, let’s face it some 50% of this forum are going to be disappointed if we are not in the top 2 by the end of August.

Jayram Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 No, I’m just glad we have our club back in decent ownership with our debts cleared. We are Derby County FC again rather ‘Rooney/Lampards DCFC’ and we have the bones of a competitive squad coming together. As long as we continue to rebuild and give it our best shot I don’t care where we finish. I have bought a season ticket for the first time in nearly 30 years because I am excited about the journey and I can’t wait for the season to start.

RoyMac5 Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 (edited) I hope for winning the title, but you know why wouldn’t you expect that to be the aim? We’ve recruited relatively well, we were relegated by a points deduction and there’s still this window and another to get players into the club. Do you all think Liam is planning for top 6 or to win the league? My money is on the latter. #coyr Edited July 15, 2022 by RoyMac5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BatRam Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 Nope aslong as we give most teams a good thrashing i dont care , itd be nice to go watch derby win and score goals. Instead of the normal pass it round the back for 85 mins and concede in last few minutes of the game. Aslong as iv still got my team to support i dont care if we go down/stay in league one/ or get promoted! jimtastic56 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dimmu Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 Oh you bunch of goody goodies! With a team we are getting together and the riches in our use, I'd be very disappointed if we don't get automatically promoted. If we don't that's on manager. i-Ram and ramit 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
