I'd been going to Derby for over 10 years before I even knew We Are Derby was Sailing!

Yes likewise. I suspect there's a few songs like that. I heard the Beautiful South's 'Rotterdam' on the radio recently and thought it's earworm chorus would sound good as a footy chant... then much later on I noticed the resemblance with 'Derby are Massive... Everywhere we go'.

Given that a generation is about 30 years and it wasn't written until 1996 that's some exaggeration! 

I dislike the crap editing, which means you can't even clap to it evenly.

But unless supporters start getting to their seats earlier, whatever is sung will be largely ignored by a sizeable minority.

Ha Ha, yes foot perhaps on the exaggerator there! Certainly there will be a lot of folks in their late 30's who never went to the BBG (I believe the song was introduced at the same time as the move to PP?) who have been taking their own kids to matches for some time now.

Anyroad, hyperbole aside... just emphasizing that SBW has been with us for a blooming long time now!

Agree that it's had its day. In fact it's so far past it's day there are several generations now who've known nothing else. I doubt there'll be any agreement in replacing it and if we did there would be a nostalgic clamour to bring it back before long.

They definitely need to sort out the tempo and stop keeping us guessing with the number of choruses. Despite its faults I guess many are still fond of it. I think the electric version they play on the podcast is ace.

Very saddened to hear this, a true Rams Legend. My condolences to family and friends.

Your positive energy will always Shine on.

Rest in Peace B4 

The early 90’s BBG ties against Villa and Sheff Wed, despite not being victorious,  are some the best atmospheres I’ve seen watching Derby.

Its mostly the standard of football. The fans need sommat to feed on and go very quiet when we look poor. The players probably need a lift, but without doing anything inspiring ain't gonna get it, which results in a gloomy cycle where the team get more nervy and the fans get more and more restless.

There's been too many games recently (Fleetwood last season a stand out) where with the best will in the world you would struggle to get remotely excited, and can only gawp on in disbelief.

We can be a mardy bunch sometimes granted, but if the team can't play up at home it is no wonder the atmosphere is stale.

To my shame, I've had to look up her name... but Captain Millie Bright looked an absolute machine at the head of the tunnel. 
Physically "Brick-House", mentally focussed, and seemingly ready for battle.

I've decided I like her already, despite my obvious and shameful ignorance...

 

And we're off... 

Derbyshire lass too, born in Chesterfield

Hemp’s goal reminiscent of Lineker in 1990… I think Bright’s long ball was better than Paul Parker’s hoof though. Much more enjoyable than watching the Rams last night!

I like Warne and obviously want him to succeed, and was fully supportive of the calculated risk of bringing him in for Rosenior at the time. All of us want an end to the revolving doors of managers and I really want to be patient and give him time.

Something does appear rotten now and barring a Mike Bassett fantasy turnaround following a change of formation, I think it is a matter of when not if… possibly just one tonking away from the door. I hope he can change it, and so will he as I don’t know where his career goes from failing here?

Ultimately we should always be competitive at home regardless of where we are. I don’t have a season ticket, so get to games when I can, roughly once a month. In doing so I’ve been served up some real gopping gruel of late. Folks will decide not to bother soon and as others have already pointed out, the costs of parting ways will be being weighed up by the number crunchers against potential revenue losses.

At the very least it will be better than all the AI Beatles stuff already out there on Youtube. I got drawn in to listening to 'Ringo Starr sings She's Electric' recently amongst some other underwhelming Fab Four covers.

The way things are going we are probably not far away from hearing a version of The Police's 'Every Breath You Take'... sung by Steve Bloomer.

Infuriating! We got done as well same place the other week, same scenario.

Disgraceful how our system supports these faceless fleecers, leeching away from the festering armpits of capitalism, really is lower than a snake's b******.

Honest hard work or talent should be the way to be rewarded... not owning a patch of asphalt and scheming to bully decent folks. Often the local businesses despise these parasites as much as anyone... helpless to act as their reputation and return custom suffers.

Phil Brown. I'm sure there are worse records, but he came in following a relatively successful season where the club looked like it was heading in the right direction. Instead of kicking on we brought in someone unproven, uninspiring and unlikeable.

Been on a lot of caravan holidays over the years... you soon figure out which operators and areas to avoid. 

The worst was in Combe Martin - a lovely area - but the caravan park must've been tired in the 70's. If persons fleeing war were put up for free at that site there'd be national uproar. I was stitched up with a real stinker of a van... on opening the door it smelled like a business of ferrets had recently vacated, or a pair of geriatric and incontinent honey monsters!

Done a real job at CB this season

I don’t suppose anyone can rustle up an away kit using the blue, green, white and yellow of the Derbyshire flag? As we are a one (league) club county, we should maybe promote this?

reminds me of this one from Port Vale a couple of years back

Oh dear... the gold trim does have a touch of Port Vale about it. Loved our 95-97 shirt though.

How about this 90's Croatia/Derby mash up in homage to Igor?

Felt like we were robbed of a grandstand finish with all the pompey players falling over one after another. Something really has to be done. Totally wrong that you can gain an advantage in a game of football by lolling on the floor. 31,000 people including the away fans don’t pay their money to watch the physio running back and forth.

I seemed at one point that even one the Portsmouth players went over to an ‘injured’ colleague and said something to suggest he was over milking it and to get up.

It was always going to happen once they went one up against the grain, changed the games narrative after and the silliness started straight away. Players and fans lost the wind in their sails. Getting two goals back when any momentum we got was instantly snuffed out was gonna be tough.

Really enjoyed Collin’s equaliser though🐏 cracking atmosphere at times, would’ve been Mega if we’d got a winning goal
