    MadAmster got a reaction from angieram in East Stand   
    The post pointing out that the club might be under investigation or surveillance is probably right. It's against UK Law to stand. Can't blame the club for not wanting to break the Law. Taking action following a complaint may well ensure that home fans in the South and away fans in the SE continue to get to stand without too much hassle.....

    Missed out on Barnsley tickets in the away end. Flights, hotel, train from Brum, matchday coach all paid for. Only one thing for it.... It's hospitality at Barnsley for the 4 of us. One place is almost as much as 3 adult and 1 senior ticket in the away end would have been but it'll be worth it. Weekend in Derby. Neppy tours to Barnsley. What more can a man ask for?  ?

    Most of the crossing attempts yesterday were, IMO, poor. I would also add that, again IMO, Sibley has been the best dead ball taker we have seen for us this season and, if on the park, should take free kicks and corners.

    They sucked us into their game plan and we let them. That wasn't football it was head tennis for long periods.

    Time wasting after they got the first. Ball boys taking 30 seconds to get the ball to the player for the throw in. The player then taking another 30 seconds before taking the throw 10 to 15 yards too far forward. Then we get a throw, nick 2 yards and get pushed back 5.

    The ref was consistent in his inconsistency. How Collo got away with his arm into their keeper early doors is a mystery. Foul on Conor not given and, 2 seconds later, one given against Foz for something far less of a foul. A Foz push in the back not given. All of that in the opening minutes. All of that fades into nothing when you look at the dropped ball incident. One of theirs goes down just inside our half. TV didn't show what happened. We attack, they move the ball forward, we get it back. The last 2 touches were by Derby players. He then stops play to allow the player to get treatment. Then came the inevitable dropped ball. What happened next was mind boggling. He instructed Derby players NOT to take part in the dropped ball. That would indicate that, although he should have given it to us, he was intending them to give us the ball. The ball was dropped and they passed the ball to the right winger to initiate an attack. Poor refereeing. I don't think he was biased either way, just poor.

    They had one more shot than us, 1 more on target. The game was tight and they edged it. No complaints. The next run starts on Tuesday.

    Charlton? Yes, we lost there but, IMO, deserved a draw. Lincoln? Deservedly won the game at theirs but they are not doing well of late and we aren't the team we were at that stage of the season.

    I enquired about hospitality a few weeks back as a back up plan and was told it was sold out apart from a few spaces in the corner stand. They were happy to sell us two places knowing we're Derby fans. Not sure if there are any places left.

    I was on from 09:30 in the hope they'd go on sale early. Chose seats, 5 of them, got the "not on sale yet" message. Chose again, same again, for half an hour clicking on every 3 or so seconds. 10:00 comes and the message changes to "seat not available". Looked at the blocks and there were about 20 left, spread all over the place. Next hour the sold out message kept changing to BUY, go to the block where someone had just released tickets from their basket.... click, "not available". As expats we booked flights to Donington, hotels etc back in December to save money..... then the £150 return flights we'd booked nosedived because Flybe went bust. Hopefully get the cash back from the Credit Card but that's not guaranteed. Rebooked on KLM to Brum at £300 each. Still coming over. Got ourselves on the "returns list" with the ticket office. Looking at whether Barnsley allow visiting fans to do hospitality. If both avenues (returns/hospitality) fail,  we'll do hospitality at Burton v Accrington.

    Ainsworth has said we're too big for League 1. He may be right. He's missing his 3 first choice CB's and one of his better attacking players plus Mehmeti has gone to Bristol City.

    No idea if it's relevant or not but... in a recent interview, Roberts said he didn't feel like a loanee, he feels like a Derby player.
    I'd be more than happy to see him here next season.
