Angry Ram Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Good work fella. Met a couple of Yanks in Covent Garden before the play off final. Top fellas. USA preseason would be great... west coast next year, San Fran, LA and San Diego late July would be great. You should tweet John Vicars, I am sure he could arrange a tour of the ground etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cisse Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 You better hope the weather is good in Derby. If there is a snowflake somewhere drifting down they will postpone the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RLACML Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 There were some Canucks at the game yesterday, they sat in front of me. Paraded their flag before the game and all. You could do the same AmericanRam, give you a chance to experience the famous Derby hospitality. Booooooo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jayweb95 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Its a tough one mate... I myself reside in Louisiana but was born in derby, it's tough to have a connection to a club that isn't too flight unless you're someway brought up around them.. I've been in derby for 6 weeks now and I leave October 5th.. Mate I know what it's like with it there, it's nearly impossible to even catch a championship match let alone derby... But to say you've already got 12 members great work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ram a lamb a ding dong Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 More the merrier. Guarenteed 3 points against the Leeds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Scarlet Pimpernel Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Ah yes Vicars would be helpful mate thanks.I am very much looking forward to this match If you are coming over make sure you get in a tour of the Stadium and maybe your group photo on the pitch or something. Ask Vicars. The club are usually good with this sort of thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmericanRam Posted September 1, 2014 Author Share Posted September 1, 2014 Thanks for the responses mates. For those who live in the States or any others, feel free to contact me: @Derby_CountyUSA on Twitter, derbycountyusa@gmail.com or of course on here. I am also toying around with a badge or logo for the group. If any have any ideas, do not hesitate to suggest them to me. I would like one with the Derby ram and an american flag correlated with it? Any who are good with photoshop? Thanks in advance. Looking for others who live in the States looking to get involved? Just let me know. Looking forward to the Leeds game and hope the weather holds up. However, I have ordered a long sleeve home shirt and a Derby Hooded Top just in case Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Scarlet Pimpernel Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 It WILL be cold (anything from say 0 degrees -10 degrees centigrade). Probably grey skies with a cold wind. 50/50 chance of rain, could be icy and snowy but we just don't know. The pitch has under soil heating to protect against frost but if it snows heavily the problems are health & safety around the ground. Welcome to British weather.
