Comments on: Funny Thursday http://martinblogs.co.uk/ramballs/2009/07/02/funny-thursday/ The mutterings of a Derby County fan Wed, 10 Mar 2010 23:43:12 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.7.1 hourly 1 By: admin http://martinblogs.co.uk/ramballs/2009/07/02/funny-thursday/#comment-15 admin Sun, 05 Jul 2009 14:52:58 +0000 http://ramballs.wordpress.com/?p=83#comment-15 After the terrible premiership season and last seasons relegation scrap you'd expect most fans to be happy with a year of consolidation yet that isn't the case. Loads of rams fans seem to be grumbling about lack of serious transfer activity and think we'll struggle but I personally expect a season around mid-table and I'd be happy with that to be honest. We've massively reduced our debts recently yet some fans think our american owners are taking the club for a ride. I see no evidence of that but I can understand why people are cautious given the recent conviction of former board members for false accounting and fraud.

Personally I expect us to be in the shake up for the Play-Offs but I'd be surprised if we are challenging for automatic promotion, our squad is too weak and full of deadwood for that.

Up the Rams or something. Cheers for the “pingback”, not entirely sure what that is but appreciate it!
