SUPERTOON Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 Im so nervous never been like this before Given that you are nervous before all games, I reckon you must be at the epicenter of a powerful earthquake right now. Haha i know the biggest game for a long long time in our history Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
relámpago blanco Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 Bib theory time... http://www.nufc.premiumtv.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10278~1267403,00.html Ramage is back I know he's nowhere near fit but we could do with him at the minute. He's not the best defender in the world but he doesnt make many errors and I'd prefer him over Taylor at the moment. Him and faye would be unspectacular but solid and reliable. My f****** god. I know some people here are desperate and willing to try whatever just in case it works and saves our ass, but brother, Ramage is NOT the way to go. He is so limited it's just sad watching him. My memory of Ramage is his red hot face leaving the pitch in the first half after being terrorised by Rooney. He is so out of this league that they get. Now get yourself togehter Northern Soul! As opposed to our other cb's this season who have easily coped with the threat of rooney, ronaldo et al (faye excluded). We where better defensively when we had a back 4 of carr ramage bramble and huntingdon. Yes I realise we had a far superior midfield protecting the back 4, I'm just saying on the basis of what I've seen this season I'd pair him wth faye until things sort themselves out. Taylor thinks he's a keeper wo can't handle the ball ad Cacapa will never be a prem cb as he ca't handle the physical aspect. I know ramage is poor and I wouldn't renew his contract. I'm just trying to say at least the lad sticks to his job and does it to the best of his abilities and will give 100% and in a relegation battle, defensively, thats what you need. You on't need these types in attacking roles though (cough...Smith) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wullie Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 I still have nightmares about Ramge's performance against Birmingham last season, a game that included the worst bit of individual defending I have ever seen from a Premiership player. Nah, that was when he let Harewood roll him against West Ham. Horrendous. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtype Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 My Lord, the "our players get massively bigged up when they haven't played for a while" effect must be fucking gigantic if it's even working for Ramage. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris_R Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 Ramage is a decent, Championship-quality defender. Not at all what we need now. I just hope we don't need him next year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, that was the last memory I had of Ramage, but as others have said, he has had many other shocking games, and I can tell you one thing: He will not be better than he were before and he has been out for a long time with injury. It would be absolute suicide to put him in the team this season, or the next one regardless of which division we play in for that matter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wullie Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 The team selection is going to depress me no matter what because there are at least two or three woefully inadequate players who will start. The only hope is that the quality in the squad can overcome their awfulness. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
