Thread | Can we have some reasoned debate please?
at 17:00 2 Mar 2013
I come to Ramzone to read contributions that have some thought and some understanding of the difficulty of building a club. When I want to read comments by wrist slashers. WUMs and serial moaners, I go on other sites because sometimes they make me laugh with their crass stupdity.
But recently all I'm reading here on this site are similar comments - Clough is useless, the Board are skinflints, certain players couldn't kick their way out of a paperbag. It's becoming a deluge of misery and negativity.
My view is that things are steadily improving - we have a young and enthusiastic team, our youth team has just beaten the millionaires of Man CIty, we are in no danger of becoming insolvent and doing a Portsmouth and some of the football I've watched this season has been the best for a very long time and certainly much more enjoyable than watching the MoTD feature of Manure (which I now avoid watching). Yes - I would like us to be pushing for top six, but I think that will happen next season not this.
So am I swimming against the tide by being mildly and quietly hopeful that we are on the right course? |

Thread | Optimism?
at 22:34 2 Sep 2012
Having watched the Rams against Wolves and Watford, I must say I am really excited about the future. At last we can see some fruits from Clough's work - the ball retention in both games was fantastic, 500 passes against Wolves and 61% possession against Watford. Compared to last year when we hung on to win grittily but without any panache whatsoever, we are playing with style and trashing other teams for parts of the match or for the whole match. Yes, there's another 40 odd games to go, but last year we all knew that the bubble would burst at some point as we weren't good enough; this year I can't see how we can lose the performance level that we have (barring injuries). Anyone out there who feels like I do? |

Thread | We beat Arsenal!
at 11:01 15 Dec 2011
Our under 18's beat Arsenal! The potential that Clough and his backroom team are now developing beggars belief. After years of ageing and over-paid dross from top to bottom, it looks like we are now creating a new pipeline of talent that will serve us well in years to come. We are never going to beat the Big Four with spending, but if we can develop our own talent than we can move forwards. Am feeling really chuffed this morning - anyone out who agrees with me? |

Thread | Past season stats

How do I find teams from past seasons? Used to be on the Telegraph website and then the Derby County memories - and now I can't find anything? Anyone out there who can help please? |
