PBW Ram Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 Best start to the season for 40 years. 6 out of 8 wins. 4 out of 8 clean sheets. 2 3 nil wins at home already. 2 games won coming from behind. Beaten two of last years premier league sides and beaten the cheating reds. 6 points gap between us and 7th with a winnable home game coming up. At what point am I allowed to get carried away?

ram2767 Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 Happy days, if the next two are wins I'll be excited, but atm trying my best to keep my feet on the ground. I really wasn't expecting these results come the end of last season, it's looking bright, and with youngsters coming through, up the Rams!

Duracell Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 Best thing about today was that Milwall weren't exactly there for the taking. Whenever we've thrashed Palace or Wednesday or PNE or sides like that, they've looked sh1te from kick off, but Milwall looked ok today. We looked like we could have gone up a gear if we needed to.

Derby Loyal Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 Southampton away at Cardiff and Middlesbro playing Leicester Tues, fingers crossed for a good result against Barnsley.

Alph Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 Personally trying not to get carried away like last year. Bloody hard though Just enjoying each win right now. This division is full of runs. It's perhaps wise to expect a bad run and take it in our stride when it comes. Let's hope it's a short blip this time. Just need to get as many points as we can while we're more than holding our own in games. Need to be aware of the way this division works to avoid getting your dreams crushed like last year. Surely we can't beat Leicester next Saturday. That'd just be weird. Link to comment https://dcfcfans.uk/topic/7572-40-years/#findComment-207381 Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 It was mentioned today in the match chat that it took us 12 games to pick up 18 points last season, just checked and it did we were 7th at the time. Whilst we've done it 3 games earlier last season showed how quickly it can go downhill after playing so well. It's not being negative, I've not spilt blood whilst writing this and it's been a bloody good start to the season, but a start is all it is. Looking at the fixtures next month after the Barnsley game we're in for a few more "tests" A Leicester H Southampton A Reading A Boro H Portsmouth 5 big big games, 5 games I would not like to put a prediction on either.

Southampton and Boro are going to be tricky, I agree that they all will, but particularly those two in my opinion.

Derby Loyal Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 I would take 6 points from these five matches, expect 3 from tuesday which gives 27 points after 14 games, that would put us about 3rd based on last years table, I'd take that now Link to comment https://dcfcfans.uk/topic/7572-40-years/#findComment-207392 Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't look like drawing games so presumably that would be 2 wins out of 5 games. No, I would be terribly disappointed with that.

GboroRam Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 I think 5 draws would be a fabulous result from those, so I'd say 5 points would be more than fine. Link to comment https://dcfcfans.uk/topic/7572-40-years/#findComment-207394 Share on other sites More sharing options...

GboroRam Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 Yup, to go through all those fixtures unbeaten would set us up for a good run. Link to comment https://dcfcfans.uk/topic/7572-40-years/#findComment-207396 Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, suppose I've got high expectations after the start we've had, ha. Last season I would have taken that any day. Agree though an unbeaten run of a good few games has got to come soon.

GboroRam Posted September 24, 2011 Share Posted September 24, 2011 Definitely not getting carried away with the good start. As we know, good starts can turn into sh1te runs quickly - lets hope it doesn't happen, but it is a long season.
