    Thorne was constantly sited as a Clough target ... I can't say about Christie but Thorne was ... FACT

    See the link. There's loads still littering the place about it.

    You can believe what you want.. Clough had Thorne as a loan target and was looking at doing a deal with Coventry for Christie before he went for wisdom and ended up getting adam smith

    Mcclaren would have clearly gone out and fine his homework aswell.

    Completely irrelevant as Rats assertion was that no player signed by McClaren was a first team regular and that as with many of his points is patently untrue.

    Back on topic, as i thought, not a whisper from a supposed Rams fan when we get two good results in the league, ah well true to form.

    Frankly this debate about improvement is pointless, the records show where we are in the league and what we have achieved over the past season and ha

    Comparing without adding anything for opinion and looking at the plain stats shows no improvement. You can argue all you like but statistically there is no improvement. Can you DEMONSTRATE that rest for result there is.

    You stated Mcclarens scouts spotted Thorne and I proved we were linked with him with Clough so I completely disproved your point regardless of signing him. Yet again you don't look at the picture as shortly after that report Thorne was seriously injured hence why he didn't move. Oops you missed that one.

    You are wrong again I am not busy posting when we Lose. I merely reply to what is posted to me. Go back Jane a look. As such I have responded when I have had time to what has since been posted at me. Did you really want me to start a post about anything that I wouldn't normally. However when we were on a winning run I had the balls to state openly it was all about to end and no improvement. Something that sticks in your throat I was proven right about.

    Anyway other than asking (not ordering) people to ignore his ridiculous posts how and when have I trolled Rattea? I haven't!

    The site would be much better off without his WUM posts. If he wasn't a mod and a friend of yours I think he would have had the same fate as Afghan and others a long time ago.

    What liking posts is now trolling? Don't be ridiculous. If someone echos my view that Rattea should be ignored if he posts purely wind-up tripe I am going to like that post.

    I have been following this board for years and lost details of a previous account when my PC had to be reformatted. So it's quite a simple explanation really and I think you will find my writing style is in no way similar to Afghan!

    I do not only post about Rattea and generally try to ignore anything he has written, but t

    re: Where he Gone?

    Players signed by Shteeve and making key contributions this season.

    Ibe - 5 goals??
    Christie - played nearly every game, a number of assists
    Dawkins - having to battle with Ibe, but also scored what is it... 4 goals?
    Omar - played possibly a dozen games and valuable cover for injured Thorne

    There are 4 players to have made impact on our season so far, with Bent soon to add to the above. Only really Best who has come in and failed to make any waves, but he's only a loan and will soon be gone I am sure

    You sought of elude to why hasnt Shteeve made sweeping changes to the squad. Thats easily explained in that we dont have the finances to make 11 first team signings each year/ And also, he obviously saw talent in some of the players. Talent that he believed he would be able to improve with his superior management.

    Judging by the fact he led us to a 3rd place finish, highest since 2007, I would say he has been pretty damn successful. Have i been kyrogenically frozen over the last 7
