I've hated watching teams run through the middle at us but I actually felt pretty confident in our shape today for the first time in what feels like months. Even though we were under pressure I never felt like we'd crack, which wasn't the case in the last few matches.

NottsRam77 Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 (edited) so many that hate warne and his style … and at its worse its god awful to watch. but and its massive but…. look at the stats, tightest at the back in the league, away record that is seldom seen at our club and uv got a bunch of players there that are putting their bodies on the line for the full 90….. for our club and this manager that a small minority think the players hate playing for. were doing the dogged stuff that wins games, were earning the right to win games. Its not pretty but its a style of play that others have succeeded with just not one weve become accustomed to over the last however many years personally im loving the fact were a bunch of big hard f****** that if u going to get a result from youve got to be on it coyr!!

CapeTownRams Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 Interesting hearing PW on RD saying that how Ebou played today was how he was wanting and expecting Fornah to play- but that ‘it hadn’t worked out quite so well (yet)’. Hopefully Fornah can learn from Ebou’s aggression and work rate… Caerphilly Ram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On paper Charlton has one of the best squads (and certainly best attackers) in the league.

Chester40 Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 (edited) Think only NML would have taken that chance with such ease. Need him fit! Battling win. Not pretty but Charlton created little. League looks better tonight. Adams looks exactly what we need. Bird played well. Collins stayed fit. Plenty on the bench and more to come. Never is like Football Manager is it... Charlton had Ladapo and May, we didn't have CBT. And...we won. Names don't win games. Momentum, heart, luck.... fate? All looks very different without that goal but then was perfect for our back 3 and they managed the game well. Big result. Pretty decent performance. Great day.

i-Ram Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 Good win. 1 nil away is always a great result, even more so after a so so performance. Good to see other teams drop points too.

Anyone know what Wildsmith is being punished for ? Who said he is being punished? Or is this just another non existent thing being used to attack Warne with? He had a couple of poor performances and was dropped. Maybe the management just think that Vickers has done ok and doesn't deserve to lose his place? Personally, I prefer Wildsmith but am certainly not viewing it as him being punished.

Ghost of Clough Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 (edited) 1 hour ago, CapeTownRams said: Intrigued what PW will now do with Nyambe back and when Fozzy is fit again. Back 4 with those back in it makes us very strong but we know he likes a back three with WBs …. I think we'll see a transition towards 343/3421. It's the only real way you get Blackett-Taylor, Mendez-Laing and one of Ward/Wilson in the side together. That would mean a back 3 of Nyambe, Nelson and Cashin backed up by Rooney (next season), Bradley and Forsyth. Ward, Wilson, Elder and Sibley our wing backs. If we make Adams permanent (which I expect will be the plan), Hourihane to leave at the end of his contract, and Bird's loan to end... Adams will be partnered with another new signing next season (for now it would be Bird). Thompson and another will be backups. We would also need 2 new wingers to compete with Blackett-Taylor and Mendez-Laing, as well as a couple new forwards (expect a new deal for Collins). 1 hour ago, CapeTownRams said: Interesting hearing PW on RD saying that how Ebou played today was how he was wanting and expecting Fornah to play- but that ‘it hadn’t worked out quite so well (yet)’. Hopefully Fornah can learn from Ebou’s aggression and work rate… When we signed Fornah, I saw nothing in his stats to set him apart from Smith. It's no surprise to me it isn't quite working as Warne had hoped. However, when I looked at Adams' he was averaging close to double Fornah's defensive output, albeit mostly at a lower level and having not played much for a couple of years. I just new he would make a difference. Then his interview... with an infectious personality like his, he's it just adds to the certainty of him being a good signing.

Not really a punishment though. If he wanted to punish him, he'd make him play in midfield in training and tell everyone to play 'Warneball'.
