Oh nuts 
I voted yes as I just saw the title and thought it was in jest … oops can I change my vote lol

No but I appreciate that we needed more polls. We all love a poll 

Similar story to me. I was born in Wolverhampton and grew up in Staffs too.
My Nan and Grandad used to watch Wolves in their glory days, and their son and grandson both supported Wolves too. The 80s were pretty dire times for Wolves though, down in the bottom division with no money and loads of violence. My Grandad had fallen out of love with football I think, so there was never much of a push to follow them. My dad loves football too, but never really supported anyone, and was also put of by what matches had become.
I think I had already picked up on Wolves fan's belief that they had a divine right to be the best team too. Maybe all teams have a bit of that, but it always felt a bit more self-entitled with Wolves.
Anyway, it wasn't for me, nor was supporting Liverpool who all other kids followed if not Wolves.
I think I was aware of Derby first through Simon Groom on Blue Peter. It was rare in those days for famous people to talk about a football team they support, so it must have stuck with me.
I used to like listening to football on radio, but West Midlands stations didn't do commentary from what I remember, plus they covered lots of different teams too. I discovered Radio Derby were mainly focused on one team and also had commentary of just Derby too. They also had Graham Richards too.
Combined with the promotion and success at the end of 80s, plus a sticker album and Dean Saunders, I got hooked.
My dad, and myself, played sport every weekend so little opportunity to get to any games.
Appropriately, my first game was at Wolves, sitting in their fans with orders to not give anything away. We won 3-2 with 2 late goals, and I imagined to keep a lid on it until we got back in the car.
I did see a Wolves scum walk pass a quite geeky looking fan in Derby shirt after the game and smash him in the stomach. My decision to support Derby was validated on every level!
Since those times I lived in Yorkshire, London and north of London. Got to games where I can, including lots of away games in the South East. Looking forward to taking my boys again to Pride Park, their last game was Leeds playoff first leg. A lot has changed since then!

Was born in reading … not a million miles away from the old elm park
Born in Matlock Dad was stalwart Derby and it was only a matter or time before he migrated us back up towards the midlands .. unfortunately for me we only stopped back in Derby for a couple of years due to a bad house move so ended up in Nottingham but that didn’t stop me following him around the country watching my now beloved rams 
sadly now it’s a journey I have to carry on alone 
still never forget those early years back in the late eighties standing on a milk crate in the popside then the ritual of waiting no matter the weather for the green paper 
happy days 

We including yourself Mel are fans of this famous old club
Recently we seem to be in the news for negative reasons and from a fans point of view prospects of having a fair chance of being competitive appear low 
is there something that you could say to fans that would stop the anxiety and sleepless nights that I’m sure many of us are experiencing

Taking the piss out of your own manager purely out of spite is inbred levels of stupid. What a way to get behind your team.
