  1. If they do, just pop down the road and scratch off the first letter on all their Tram signs! 👀 #Don't vandalise kids. sorry... #Don't vandalise, kids
  2. We'll be back v.2 Away win 1-2 Collins
  3. I'd agree, but would add the caveat that should we get back to back promotions this season and next, I hereby reserve the right to rescind my stance! 👀
  4. Although I imagine that the club wouldn't admit this publicly, I strongly suspect that when citing Health and Safety, it's not "we" they are thinking about. The safety of two lots of players, two lots of club officials, and a gang of match officials, on the other hand... Not everyone on the pitch will behave like "an adult"! Sadly!
  5. Sad news. From my early teens and the very start of my Rams supporting career. A record signing if I recall. Brought some excitement to these young heartstrings, albeit maybe not as much as the initial anticipation. And a subsequent swap for Don Masson. So not perfect by any means... but still sad news. RIP sir, and thanks for at least helping me to get hooked. 🐏
  6. I honestly didn't know such a thing existed! Probably because past recipients are a tad embarrassed. 🤣 Still, no different to a silver at the olympics, I guess! 🤷‍♂️ From Google... Bolton with the trophy earned for a L1 second place/auto promotion to The Championship in 2017... https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/39682808
  7. Indeed... and a lot of us who would like to share the celebration with the players and club staff (And particularly a certain Mr Clowes, I'd imagine)... which usually comes in the form of a "Lap of honour"... which have been known to suffer a last minute cancellation in the past, due to too many (unauthorised) folk meandering about on the pitch! Whatever transpires, I strongly suspect that the old adage about not being able to please everyone will get a passing mention.
  8. A/ They also have a website, X Accounts, and access to media to advise BEFOREHAND, not to do it in the first place, and yet there are enough hints on the internet to suggest it's highly likely to be ignored. What makes you think their pleas would be heeded second time around, when emotions are running so much higher? 🤷‍♂️ B/ I never knew that, and stand corrected. 🍻
  9. That bold bit is where the problem lies, imo. I envisage the majority of the attendance (22k+) will scuttle off home having not had the chance to thank/congratulate/celebrate with the people that matter... players and staff. Shame really... but utterly not unexpected.
  10. Cod Almighty. Cloud 9. Heaven. or maybe The Codfather, son, and holy spirt!
  11. *Have ... said Daniel... probably never... but you get my drift! 👀
  12. 1. Go back and check out the words in bold. 2. Then go and say sorry to @Rev, for missing an absolutely cracking rifle-related pun. If you don't, you're gunner look a right pillock!
  13. I've just checked mine... laptop auto logged me in. There was nothing forcefully directing me to my account details (As there has been in the past, despite them already having my up to date details) but I clicked on the "My Account" tab anyway... (I think then a link to "Edit Profile)... where it immediately requested my Title, gender, and contact number. They were blank boxes, but are now showing as complete, so all good for me. It does however, appear to be a slightly different layout, so maybe they have updated the system at their end? Only guessing mind! 🤷‍♂️
  14. I renewed on day one... about an hour before receiving my personalised/specific renewal email. I've had two further ST reminder emails since, but are clearly generic, and not addressed specifically to me, so don't lay any money on such emails drying up!
  15. 1. Ain't nobody gonna be returning to their seats in time for a well spectated lap of honour. 2. Ain't nobody gonna be seeing any form of a trophy being lifted at Pride Park Stadium within the next 12 months at the very least... unless we get our hands back on the BCT next season!
  16. You need to re-read my username sonny... I'm a lot older than you think! 👀
  17. Ah, that'll be the time honoured tradition of a lap of honour by the players, staff (and their families), to the delight of all sides and corners of the stadium then. Couldn't agree more. Well said. 👍
  18. Must admit @angieram, that took be by complete surprise... particularly the entire last line. Drinking to excess and snorting coke is apparently becoming a tradition at away matches for some, and also apparently leads to all sorts of boisterous behavior that some would quite likely describe as "Football fun". I have to admit, this is based on what I've read, not witnessed. It's been "a tradition" for eons, for Forest fans to lob liquid waste and/or coinage of the realm from the upper tier to the away fans below. Knowing this tradition, should the latter just stay away, or at the very least, stay back under the upper tier, where they are somewhat sheltered? The fact remains, DCFC, football clubs in general, and the laws of this country dictate that pitch invasions by fans should not be tolerated, let alone be seen as football fun and consequently applauded. So much so, DCFC have aired this, ahead of these final two matches... As an aside, I'd be interested to hear what the likes of our very own Martin Taylor would have to say on that last line. And many more players besides, of course. EDIT: Apologies, this was written/posted before seeing your latest response in this thread, which admittedly was considerably less surprising to me. 🍻
  19. At the risk of coming across as a party pooper... Away fans invading the pitch at Cambridge, particularly "in numbers", will almost certainly lead to sanctions against DCFC. It will most likely lead to fisticuffs on the pitch between rival fans, and... this is my favourite bit... potentially lead to individuals and/or groups being left with a criminal record and/or some form of ban on attending future matches. Home fans invading the pitch after the Carlisle game would likely follow the above, plus piss off those who, due to being a little more considerate and polite, choose to remain in the stands to applaud our heroes, and will likely... as has happened in the past... lead to the abandonment of any planned "Lap of Honour" by the players/staff, which of course, should happen for the enjoyment of us all. There... I'm officially a party pooper... now stay off the fuckin' pitch, nob 'eads! 🍻 🐏
  20. Not sure it would be that difficult, once you have a couple in the bank? We're all different though, I guess. 🍻
  21. Do you know what... I don't recall getting the letter this year. I could be wrong though. 🤷‍♂️ I got my personal/specific renewal e-mail on Monday 26th Feb (After I'd already renewed, thanks to posts/reminders on here, I renewed online on day one, which is unusual for me.) Check your emails/spam. 👍
  22. Got yer. 👍 I can never work out why they they shove them to the left/East when numbers are low, leaving one massive gap towards the south stand. If they're not going to hand those seats over for home fans, and they insist on so many empty seats for segregation, at least shove the away fans centrally and symmetrically in the corner. It plays havoc with my OCD! 🤣 Maybe they trust the east standers more than the south standers to behave themselves, hence the bigger gap to the south stand (when numbers are low)? 🤷‍♂️ PS: No accusations of being a smart-arse were intended, in my previous post(s). 🍻
  23. I've heard the guy with the bell smells a bit, but apart from that... 😉
  24. Those old tear out tickets generally ran in numerical order, but every now and then they'd throw in a curve ball and change the sequence. I always assumed it was to ensure you'd got the whole book with you, and not just purchased/borrowed/stolen the single voucher, thus more likely to be the genuine STH. (How many of us would hand over a full book, even to someone we knew!). ... I once bought a single ticket (from a ST book) at Maine Rd. He ("The spiv") tore out the right numbered voucher, and graciously hovered about until I was in, but I was very nervous that I'd been ripped off! ... As an aside... I was sat front and centre behind the goal. I kept looking behind wondering where all the noise was coming from. It was mid-second half before I spotted the speakers, and the noise was being piped in from the Kippax Terrace to the side. Surround-Sound football chants! Cool! 😁 * Didn't help them though... we won 1-2! 🐏
  25. That's to the side of the away fans. You asked where the away fans were. I put arrows on to show you, and @Foreveram states there were 1200 of them. Those empty seats are down to DCFC, not the travelling Blackpool fans. Is there a point to your posts? 🤷‍♂️
