He really won't have cost them much though. Thought I'd check the going rate.

Remember the Fulham game well, the bar ran out of drinks at halftime.

I felt proud to be there today. It wasn’t about the players on the pitch that have been at the club for five minutes. 
it was about the fans that ARE the club and whose ancestors have been there since the beginning. 
Great start. 

If I remember rightly having made the stray pass he tackled back got the ball and set us on our way again.  That was good to see.

To be fair they'll need to deliver to 2999 Andrews first mate! 

He’s been an ex-ram for quite some time, so……

I had some time to kill this morning and this whole RamsTrust situation has annoyed me. According to the RamsTrust website under 'Governance' they are FSA members. With that in mind I have sent this correspondence to the FSA. I might just be shouting in to the void, but at least I feel like I've tried.
 
"Hi,
I hope this correspondence finds you well.
I (and many other Derby County fans) have serious concerns around the RamsTrust supporters group associated with Derby County. The RamsTrust are FSA members, however, I am unsure if raising the governance concerns with regards to the trust in this way is valid or within the remit of the FSA to assist. Any advice would be appreciated.
Since Derby County exited administration they have been unable to offer a direct debit instalment facility to help fans purchase season tickets. The reasons for this have been clearly communicated by the club and a system has been put in place by the club to mitigate the issue. Despite this, the RamsTrust felt it appropriate to suggest that fans take out a high interest loan via a local credit union to cover the cost of season tickets. It also turns out that board members of the RamsTrust may have links to the credit union they referenced. 
The tweet in question can be found here: https://twitter.com/RamsTrust/status/1549724373975695360?s=20&t=Kntdhq0gfjcJ7SiaLN_7rA
In addition to this poor advice that may result in fans putting themselves in debt in the midst of a cost of living crisis, RamsTrust have been blocking twitter users that have been highlighting both the poor nature of this advice and the supposed links between the RamsTrust board members and the credit union in question.
In my mind this raises significant concerns with regards to a conflict of interest should these claims be accurate and suggests that the board of the RamsTrust may not be fit for purpose.
As the RamsTrust are FSA members, is it within the remit of the FSA to review this issue and seek a satisfactory explanation from the RamsTrust and if required, consider their position as FSA members?
Best regards,"
 

Decided to look up 'my' brick from 1997 when Pride Park was built last Saturday before the Hertha Game.
Came across this nearby - says it all.   Who would have known back in 1997 !!!

I don't think David Clowes can do anything about that (although I heard a rumour he's working on it!) 
Football is an increasingly expensive spectator sport  but still reasonable in comparison with other forms of "live" entertainment. 
I suppose the government would tell you to follow a local club and cycle to games. ?‍♀️

Not a dig at us, god knows we need the money and it only cost £23 for me and my two sons to watch the Berlin game. Just the petrol for a return trip from Ipswich that made it an expensive day.

Wasn’t great but not worried, lots of changes in a game played on hottest day on record.
Players learning new patterns of play and getting to know many new teammates.  Manager learning the ropes also.  
 

No Friendlies are worth it.  They are opportunities to try new players, formations and tactics.  They are glorified training matches.  

Friendly game ticket prices should be more subsidised than they are, but that’s another story.
