big time we need a finisher , i will have to avoid mns this week and i really cant listen to redfm and hendo saying we are a good team, really it isnt his fault we need more quality but we cant as luka says keep going through the season saying if only and we played etc we need points i would rather play sh1t and win than play great footbal and lose , great footbal wont keep us up points will
true. good performance especially as 4 were missing. as u know strikers are hard to find.Quote:

We have to face that some of our players just arn't up to the pace of the Premier Division.
It pains me to say it but the likes of John Meade, John Kearney and Davin are playing every week and are constantly being given the run around by the opposition.
Kenny Coleman came in to the side and was breath of fresh air, he ran his legs off and played the two Bohs centre-mids out of the game so much so they had to be substituted.
We need 2 strikers in the transfer window who can score goals. Reilly was forced out of the game tonight and our only option was Gareth Cambridge! A winger.
But the one thing were really missing is a figurehead of experience. Someones who's been there won it all and has the t-shirt to prove it.
Hendo has a policy of signing young players which has to be scrapped. We need an old head in the team. A voice of experience. This player wouldn't even have to kick a ball he'd just have to talk to the players because from what i've seen Ramblers are too young for the Premier Divison. Someone of Greg O'Hallorans stature. If you look at the top teams they all have "older" players.
Derry have Hutton, Bohs have Heary, Drogheda have Grant,etc......
If we don't get 4 points from our next 3 games were gone. Simple as that we need to start winning and we need to start taking our chances NOW!
Rant over!
P.S- Ref and his assistants were useless.
Have to say I thought Meade was excellent last night
thought meade was excellent too, was dissapointed with anumber of rams players we are in a dire situation and some were pulling out of headers and challenges you either bloody want it our you dont
if its a battle we f$$kin battle that needs to be our mentality
a couple of players would benefit from a team talk like this

Exactly. They need to start flying in to challenges from what i've seen so far there is very little commitment out there. Only a few have given a 100% in every game and to be honest a few is not good enough for Premier League standard.Quote:

Thats were signing an experienced older player who has been there and done it all comes in.Quote:

well to survive they would want to start learning quickly, but we have to be wary here this forum can not turn into a team bashing place , because the manager and team are the best for the budget available to them, we are struggling a little as we lack some quality and a bit more experience, this is not the teams fault ok i describe stuff i didnt like above but i think that stems from a lack of confidence and nothing else , the committee need to find some dough and quick beacause we will need to be quick off the mark in july to survive
Agree, would be big mistake to move John to midfield.If its aint broke, dont fix it.. for a bottom 4 side our defence is excellent. need another forward bigtimeQuote:

Coleman and Carey were very good. Carey miss-timed his jump for the Bohs goal but he made up for it with some crucial challenges.Quote:

But he can't throw the ball to save his life.....everytime he takes a throw he loses posession, he can't pass the ball over the top and he finds it very hard to overlap.
Having seen Brian McCarthy last week vs Bray. I have to say that he looks a better player than John. Defo more suited to premier football than him anyway.
i disagree whilst agreeing i wouldnt call on john meade vs brian mac, john is vital to the team, we need him, he was definitly one of the better players last night. Brian Mac should be used as CM IMOQuote:

R14, have you seen the team practice peno's on training?
John Kearney. Went to the keepers left, it was at a good height for the keeper.Quote:

official attendance given was 1,100, with 700 payers, brutal IMO. Was always going to be less than expected after the disaster with the signs
On a sidenote lads, did you get many texts from the web service? I got 1 around 8 o'clock to tell me that we were 1 down and nothing else for the rest of the night. Would've been nice to get confirmation of the result. Was texting people half cut at 10 o'clock on Saturday night trying to find out the final score :D
It's a great thing to have (especially for me) but it doesn't seem to be consistent at all :(
I was the same this week being away, ended up ringing around to get the score/resultQuote:

Brian Murphy looked to be off his line a little quick aswell.
not the best peno iv seen but at least he stood up and took it when the people who normally take them cryed off :mad:Quote:
