IlsonDerby Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 Barkhuizen had a couple of quid on 3-0 he’ll wake up in cold sweats over that miss tonight. A real statement result today. Comrade 86 and Caerphilly Ram 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He took the harder option to show off. Just like when players score with rabonas or back-heels, it's done to show off that extra flair and talent. I'm no longer sure if James Collins was born in Coventry, or Rio de Janeiro. Walkley Ram, SKRam and Comrade 86 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBRammette Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 Really enjoyed that. First half more scrappy football but still deserved lead at half time. Second half much better football from us, better passing and squashed them totally with the second goal. Good team performance. Impressive watching Smith really marshalling everyone second half. Crowd lively too. Great afternoon! Kinder, SKRam, Anag Ram and 4 others 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bald Eagle's Barmy Army Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 That was more like it. First game I’ve enjoyed all season. Could have been more than 3, they wouldn’t have had any arguments. Why do wins like that make you look at the table and think we can still win this 🤣 #footballfansarefickleespeciallyme Carnero, SKRam, Walkley Ram and 1 other 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Using his size, little flicks, winning free kicks...just been a complete all-round striker's performance. Just need to find a Hector as a foil to Collins's O'Hare. He was brilliant today.

Millenniumram Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 Thought we were a little lucky to be in the lead at half time, but we absolutely battered them second half. Best 45 mins this season in my opinion, considering the quality of the opposition. Much more like the level of dominance I expect us to exert in this league. Only moan is it should’ve been 6 really. Some of our finishing… wow it was bad. That needs to be better in tighter games! G STAR RAM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kinder Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 Well that was very enjoyable. The atmosphere was so much better than the Northampton game from the start, the crowd were right behind the team. NML had a great first half but Collo was immense. Led the line, won headers and worked his socks off. Excellent performance from the lads. Caerphilly Ram, SKRam and norwichram 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich3478 Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 Enjoyed today, felt we got better and better as the game went on. No one had a poor game, Collins looked good. Had some nice touches and goals always help. Cashin was excellent and probably our best player. Felt like we’ve simplified things. A lot of round pegs in round holes, everyone knowing their roles, pressed and attacked well. Defended well. let’s see if we can go on a decent run!

I'm no longer sure if James Collins was born in Coventry, or Rio de Janeiro. I thought that his chest was the better option. He only had to make the ball go forwards. If he'd tried to head it in it could have ballooned upwards instead of forwards. Chester40, Carnero, nick_d and 2 others 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramarena Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 Good result against a top 6 team. What I liked about is today was the consistency. We tried to play the right way for the majority of the game and it worked well. Good performance from Collins, I’m not a fan at all, but credit where it’s due. Most of the team hit at least a 7 out of 10 with Barks being the only one to struggle. Standouts we’re Collins, NML, Bird, Cash and Foz. Also a nice, but also effective cameo from Wilson.

Steve How Hard? Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 He went to Cardiff but didn't take 'em to the Prem. He came to Derby to try his luck again. His names James Collins but we call him JC. He scores his goals with where has a wee. Der, der der...

Srg Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 Very good result and performance. Football wise, probably not as good as Northampton but Barnsley are a lot better than they are and didn’t allow it I be that kind of game. Most impressive facet of the game was us playing with strength and not allowing ourselves to be bullied which happens far too often. Thought we had numerous good/great performances. Starting at the back, Nelson was brilliant. Gave Cole absolutely nothing. Cashin improved through the games but made a couple of errors first half. Forsyth was brilliant, winning headers consistently and what a goal threat! Barkhuizen was really, really good. One of his best performances I can remember, he was absolutely tireless and really deserved a goal from that awful miss. Credit where it’s due for Collins. He bullied their smaller centre backs well, had good touches and lay offs to back it up too. Only a couple of times (including the booking) did he give away needless free kicks which are often infuriating - his best performance for us without a question. Wilson was once again fantastic in using the additional space. Deserved an assist. Couple of nutmegs down the line, great to see. Warne’s best signing? Maybe, given his age. Still don’t agree with a midfield of Hourihane and Smith. Smith doesn’t seem to do anything particularly well and ends up not really doing much of anything. They don’t complement each other well, and their lack of movement meant we matched Barnsley’s hoofball game first half more than we needed to - they didn’t work hard enough to make options. Fornah would have made far more sense. Little shame we didn’t get Weston on, seemed daft not to with us having subs available and the game being gone. Overall though, different kettle of fish from basically any home performance all season. This should be the base line. Match teams physically and you always have a chance.
