Is Warne living on borrowed time?

Contracts still mean nowt even if David Clowes is determined to run things properly. As a business, the club is results dependent. The statement  "Warne will be here for at least the next 3 years" has no merit. Its built on quicksand. It's a hope. but no more. If we have a brush with relegation this season Warne will be gone.

I would hope Clowes threshold of failure is higher than that. If we are not competing in the top 6 by end of October he surely must be toast. Otherwise I agree. Clowes would not tolerate 3 years of stagnation/non-progress in his construction business.

I often wonder what percentage of the detractors on here actually go to any games? 

I don't think that it particularly matters, as attendance does not necessarily indicate support levels. I'm quite critical of Warne and went to 20 games last season (4 away 15 home), but even if I happened to watch every one of those games on Ramstv, my critiques would still be just as valid, and I'd still support the club in the same way. 

I'd say I care about the club more now and am more dedicated than I was when I was a season ticket holder the year before I left for university. I've now roped my partner into going to games as well, and if we stay together, I'm sure we'll be a rams family.

Good point about the 21 points song. That was a real rallying cry and weve not replaced it. 

My favourite chant that hasnt been used for another player is the Sammie Winnall one-total crowd pleaser

I hope you didn’t study maths at university 😂

I wonder the opposite.

What percentage of his online defence force actually go to any games. 

(I was going to say 'his defenders', but  on the evidence of our performances so far this season, his defenders have been almost completely absent)

It's much easier to dismiss people complaining about the Blackpool game with comments about it being 'a knee jerk reaction to be knocked out of a cup competition we were never going to win anyway' when you haven't just paid to  sit there and watched the first half capitulation and 2nd half training exercise for Blackpool, for example.

That's a fair point. I still don't think you get the full picture of what a player is doing during the course of a match on TV, but you also don't get the full mood of the crowd, apart from the obvious, of course! 

Tuesday was much more disappointing to me than Saturday because our heads were down completely after we let that early goal in.

No.

Deserves credit today, he held out on making changes when I for one was calling for them at 70 minutes, turned out to be the right decision.

Yep, not far off the play off places 😉

Coming in here to have a go at people who have doubts when we get 1 win is honestly just as bad and reactionary as the people who start expressing their concerns when we get 1 loss

Warne himself has always talked about "not getting too high on wins, and not getting too down on losses".

That’s how I feel now, we still have a club so the only way is up 😊

Does your partner read this forum too, per chance?  👀
