Keep calm
« on October 20, 2021, 02:07:50 am by Sammy Chung was King »
We were told this was going to be a tough season, it has been so far.
Wellens hasn’t been able to sign everything he needed with the funds available. We all know we need a bit of experience in there, a ball winner is a must as quickly as possible.

Also though the whole squad isn’t doing enough. They are paid a decent wage to pull our shirt on, their should be a pride in playing for us.
It is a good club to play for, we’ve never stood in the way of player bettering themselves and young players get opportunities to play if good enough.

I think every single player in the squad can give more. They need to stop going out fearful and enjoy a job that many would love to do!.
Richie was told he could plan long term, but he doesn’t seem to have planned short term, you must get enough results to retain your job to get to the long term.

He needs to stop using excuses in interviews, this must be transferring to the players, giving them reason to feel sorry for themselves.
I worry that he has mostly brought in young players because he can’t handle the experienced players.

The board has a decision to make, are they prepared to let him bring some experience in to help the young players develop, or are they happy to carry on drifting?.
We need a ball winner and a blood and guts centre half who will organise the team.
The manager and all his staff and the players need to keep working hard.
No excuses ,get on with getting us up the table.

Now is not the time to be changing managers but mistakes are being made and they need to be cut out.
They are all capable of better than this. The players need to take responsibility on the field and change the situation, they are the only ones who can!.

It is early in the season but they’ve had time to blend together, results are needed. Work together and get the best from themselves.
Pass, pass, pass is fine but goals win games. Start making a difference in games, don’t pass the buck, take responsibility yourself for improving things.

The time for patience has gone, games need to be won and this manager and set of players are capable of producing that.

I'm being calm and patient. Want to give Richie time to turn things around.

Nothings changed for me.

We knew it was going to be tough and will take time to turn things around. He has another transfer window when hopefully we can tweak things even more.

He's not had the best of luck with injuries. We need Fejiri, John and Taylor back as soon as possible.

Certainly didn't expect anything v Wycombe and Gillingham away is always unpredictable but we put on a decent performance, particularly first half by all accounts.

I don't understand why folk expect things to change so drastically by starting to beat the top end teams. It's just unrealistic.

Lamine Kone without a club ex Sunderland-Expensive option probably.
Matthew Kilgallon, was with us on loan many years ago. 37 years old playing in non league at Buxton. Until the end of the season?.
Gianni Zuiverloon 34, ex West Brom, free agent.
Babacar Diallo, 32 Played in Finland and US.
Winston Reid 33, ex West Ham, unlikely.
Martin Crainie 35, ex Barnsley.

Denilson 33, ex Arsenal been playing in Brazil.
Paul Gladon 29, 6ft 2in, ex Sparta Rotterdam, short spell at Wolves, striker.

Totally agree its like "this seasons going to be tough" is expected to change every game into a great one.

Keep going RW, let's get behind the team no matter what as especially till Jan we have no choice. Fingers crossed we can sign 1 or 2 decent players to make enough just enough difference this season to stay up.

Who would have believed this time last year twelve months on Josh Sims would be without a club.

Makes you think his injury was/is a lot more serious than initially thought. Big shame for the lad as he looked amazing in his first spell with us

Mere rhetoric otherwise!
Solution is very simple ..stop follow the blind man ( Baldwin) up yet another alley as he is clueless as to what direction it takes ..Every mistake attributed to the stagnation of the club falls very much on his poor decision making over several seasons and failure to stand back and let another take the reigns when he knows the task requires knowledge that doesn’t poses  !!

Why Keep Calm? When things are sliding backwards towards league 2 and isn’t where the club should be . Wellens is delusional if he thinks that the excuse of only being 25% of the job is done . Having signed 14 players how many of those will have be rejected  if the other 75% is to be completed. Wellens is OUT! of his depth , but is so sycophantic that Baldwin speaks through him. It won’t take many more dropped points before his job of ruining this club will be complete. Less season tickets sold, even a lower budget and probably even more kids having to put on the shirt in L2. Keep Calm the jobs nearly completed !!

I think we’ve landed, no more sliding….we are at the bottom, however it’s now about testing the metal of the fanbase, seeing who can’t cope and who can….

Slagging everything that moves off is not really going to achieve anything…

I guarantee that if we do get relegated, 99.99% of those on this forum who are currently not happy will be snapping up season tickets next year!

Will you buy a season ticket next season if we get relegated?

I changed my mind but I do regret it now as I think we’ve been sold a pipe dream just to stay in L1 ! If Wellens is gone next season L1or2 I will buy again and take that as the “new norm” for DRFC .

Yes it will be nice but just one game. Just as one loss is not the end of the world, a win doesn’t mean we are world beaters either.
It would be nice to enjoy a win but game isn’t finished yet.
