Need the latter to do what they have been doing all season and grind out a win… For us, 3 is the magic number… But not 3rd CapeTownRams and Walkley Ram 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramarena Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 HT Great score line and a fairly good performance in general, although we look a bit toothless in the final third, set pieces and crosses have been our main threat. Orient are absolutely there for the taking. We can really up our goal difference against this lot, if we get our attacking final third to click.

InstaRam Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 Good first half. Bolton seems to be better than Pompey so hope they can hold on... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chester40 Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 Two goals from a corner. Orient created nowt. Derby look quicker, stronger and are getting to all the second balls. Dominating position without actually creating very much, mostly playing in front of Orient and trying to swing in crosses and win corners. Working so far, no complaints.

Comrade 86 Posted April 13 Author Share Posted April 13 (edited) Owen sounding as excitable as us lot, which is endearing. A good foil to Barker, who always sounds like he's commentating from his bed, bless him. A decent game today, with conditions better than of late. Movement off the ball really good, with everyone showing. A controlled, confident and disciplined performance thus far. Elsewhere, Posh seem to have shot their bolt so if we maintain this level (and don't return from HT half asleep), it'll likely be down to a straight shootout between us and Bolton for 2nd place, the slight concern being whether Posh will still be up for Bolton.

jcidaho Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 Got to play to the mathematical probabilities. Get as many corners as possible as they can't defend them, and we've got some big nutters. AndyB, jono and S6 boy 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jono Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 Sibs playing with confidence, Tommo a live wire. Smith looking sharp. There looks to be real intent from all of them. Orient look rattled. Just hope we don’t sit too deep in the second half Jortat, SKRam and angieram 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leicester Ram Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 For all the other fans dotted around Europe watching from Rams TV How insightful has Buck been on co-comms? Clearly knows what’s going on behind the scenes and on the pitch with this side Great performance first half, clearly want it more than them and are practically bullying them. Winning so many 50/50’s and putting in some great, high effort tackles SKRam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapeTownRams Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 We do need that third goal though… As it is , if they nick one back u can just see the mega nerves coming into things and us end up hanging on… COYR 🐏🐏🐏 Jimbo Ram and Jortat 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That will either finish 1 - 1 or 2 -2 also Portsmouth good on the break look at the Peterborough goal so if Bolton go for it they could be caught on the break Edited April 13 by Barney1991 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RadioactiveWaste Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 Just control what we can control, get this game won and hopefully help the goal difference a bit. We can't do anything else but hope that Pompey have a good second half. Ramarena 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comrade 86 Posted April 13 Author Share Posted April 13 Anyone having advocated for Bradley this season, would likely having been feeling pretty let down by him after the Northampton debacle, but he's been excellent today. A brave call from Warne (not one I'd have made!) and great to see the player working hard to redeem himself. Big 45 minutes ahead, but it's been quietly impressive so far. More of the same please!!!

Winning so many 50/50’s and putting in some great, high effort tackles It's good to hear his insight of who does what at the training ground. He also gives good insights on how we work to retain the ball, winning a throw in off the back of another throw for example. He does sound a bit more knowledgeable than Barker, but then barker might have his own style where he presents to football fans, rather than football experts. If none of that makes sense, it's because I'm three beers in YOU RAMS SKRam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
