The_Sheriff Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Have to agree with that Kev. I have never experienced anything like the atmosphere in the BBG that night. The second half was just amazing, and as you say, the crowd were ramped up. Still get goose bumps when I think of it.1968?? you guys are ancient! Respect.il'd go for the 10 men win at city ground.

Tombo Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 He did play, but yeah Surman scored their goal iircI've just gone and watched the highlights, that's how I know it wasn't Bale. Was a top quality goal by Surman as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerbyRam! Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 - Rasiak was playing against us, so no he wasn't. Best was playing though and scored a cracking own goal.- No he didn't.My mistake!I was thinking of the first game of that season with southampton at pride park, where he did score a cracker!

ilkleyram Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 I've been lucky enough to have seen the vast majority of the matches you have all mentioned, even the 1968 match v Chelsea which had an atmosphere that only the BBG could produce. Still raises hairs on the back of my neck. The Southampton play off match atmosphere was the Ipro's equivalent and a fantastic game to watch.But it's the F****t matches that stick out for me. Even now I'm old enough to know better I am always nervous; the need to win and fearing to lose, especially when they were better than us (which went on far too long). I love the matches and hate them in equal measure.1979 Rams 4 F****t 1 - John Duncan with two goals and Gerry Daly and Steve Emery with the others. They were European Champions and we were slowly on our way down. We were 3-0 up when Robertson got a penalty and they were back in it. But I can still remember John Duncan's flying header into the Ossie End goal to make it 4 and the game safe, and in the pandemonium on the Popside shouting that I would never forget him for that goal. And I never have. 'F****T are an absolute shambles' said Graham Richards, and as he nearly always was, he was right1983 Rams 2 F****t 0 - Clough v Taylor who weren't talking to each other; FA Cup; Archie Gemmill free kick and Andy Hill to make it safe towards the end. I think we were in Division 2 that day, again on the way down until Arthur eventually took us over and up, and F****t in Div 1. Heavy pitch, we weren't expected to win but the glory of the cup saw us through.Other than those two and the matches above, it's moments and crowds that stick out - Phil Gee at Sheffield Utd; Cambridge in the first match of the season; Rotherham to go up from Div 3; beating Spurs and Arsenal by big amounts. Happy days! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramlover1975 Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Man U 0 Derby 2.. Never forget Dean SAunders completely skinning steve Bruce on the half way line and chipping to Goddard at far post to put us 2-0 up as he headed home in front of the Stratford end- Gary mickle white scored the first in the first half in front of around 8 thousand rams fans.. Same day as the horrific scenes at hillsborough in the tragic fa cup semi where innocent football fans lost there lives, I was 13 and will never forget this day- I saw the good and the bad- never forget.

ramlover1975 Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 away at the baggies in a league cup 2nd leg tie, coming from behind after losing the first leg at home to a team a division below Jim Smiths premier league Rams, with morale low we needed a boost, then the biggest footballing moment happened for me, my bro put us 1-0 up and I got thrown out for over celebrating? To be fair I did have my seat in my hands.. After explains to the yam yam stewards and police they let me back in to watch us go through, possibly the best night of my life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RamNut Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Can a 5-0 win really be that exciting? Thoroughly enjoyable sure, but doesn't exciting suggest that the result might have been at least in a little doubt?no....exciting is when we've got our tails up and tear the big team opponents to shreads.......like this....https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=g69HXQ5qiRM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcsilks Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 3-3 vs Wednesday at home in the PL (late 90's) when we went 3-1 down with 3 minutes to go... I remember sitting in the stands for that one. I'm certain it was in Sheffield though. Seth Johnson had a daisy cutter from twenty-five yards out in the last seconds that was tipped around the post which would have meant an even more amazing comeback.

Ramarena Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 The Palace promotion in 96 game was exciting, nerve wracking and joyous all rolled into 90 mins. When Van der Laan scored I ended up about 6 rows forward at the front of the popside, god knows how I ended up that far from my seat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
