One thing's for certain... it wasn't full.
My seat was empty, due to me being on a hospital bedside vigil from 3pm yesterday until we said goodbye to my almost-93 year old F-I-L at 17:15 today, at which stage I was still none the wiser as to the fantastic news emanating from the other side of town!
I'm gonna leave the matchday thread catch up for now, as I'm shattered, suffice to say, I hope each and every one of you who did turn up have had a bloody fantastic day.
What. A. Result!
Up The Effin' Rams!  🐏

Ha!  Wilson looking around... "s***!  What do I do now?" 🤣

Cheers buddy. 🍻
As neither a Ram or Footy fan, it was "Family applause only"!  (One I assume only footy fans will understand!)
I did sign him off with a warranted "Well batted, that man.  Good innings, sir".
It was time, to be fair.  He was one of the gentler gents, despite being from Ilson!  👀
 
I did enquire whether anyone needed any bread or milk at around 14:15, but Muckerette just replied "Don't you f**kin' dare"!  🤣
My attention turns specifically and solely to her now, for the foreseeable.  The Rams will need to take second place for a while... just don't tell @B4ev6is!  🐏

Having missed every bloody second of yesterday's outside world (Due to a hospital based family bereavement session!), priority this morning was to search @hintonsboots, and find this little beauty.  Thank you, good sir.  My loins are fully re-stirred!

A quick flick through the rest of the thread suggests it wasn't pretty, but we got the job done.  I doubt many of us were brave enough to hope for anything more.
Looks like scenes after the whistle, and good on all those who stayed behind to applaud and cheer off the day's heroes.  
Apologies to @B4ev6is for leaving an empty seat in an otherwise sell out game.  #noexcuses.  I get it!  And I'm duly gutted, in every sense of the word. 😢
Now... Let's just do this promotion thing, and let's hear no more of my lesser fandom....

It's a thread started by a young, Derby mad fan known to us as @B4ev6is, B4, or Daniel. He passed away recently which broke many a heart among us Rams as he was as sweet a lad as you could wish to meet and the most fervent and loyal supporter of any club, not just Derby, that I've ever met. His spelling however was shocking, but as a result of learning difficulties, hence the jokes about 'scraves and ballions' you'll find all over the forum. We bumped the thread as part of an effort to keep him close to our hearts and the title was left as was out of respect to Dan and his family. In its own way, it kind of sums up who he was and why he such a favourite among us Rams faithful. No disrespect is intended.

I wouldn't pick this up, mate. A lot of context you will have missed.

I was home on 0 minutes......

The trains pass at 11:42 and they were lucky if they left on time. Easy.

Attendance: 32,538…………second highest English league crowd of the day.
 
Well done to one and all. 👍😁

Are you not sticking around for a bit, chap? 🥺

Cheers buddy. 🍻

Pride Park, that verdant cathedral of sporting prowess, was teeming with eager souls, packed to the very rafters, for this monumental clash of titans vying for the coveted automatic promotion spot. As the erudite young Owen Bradley aptly remarked, one could almost taste the palpable tension hanging thickly in the air, stirring even the most stoic of hearts. Personally, I found myself afflicted with pre-match jitters of such magnitude that I could scarcely bring myself to partake of the morning repast. Indeed, so overcome was I by nerves that I instructed my trusty manservant, Jeeves, to consume it in my stead. The early setback of a hammy for the padel maestro Gayle did little to assuage the anxious throng, yet amidst the tumult, the bobble-hatted Warne, armed with nothing more than his boundless enthusiasm and a penchant for vigorous arm-waving à la Bradley, orchestrated a tactical masterstroke, deftly shuffling his substitute pack like a magician conjuring rabbits from a hat. And lo, it was the wand of Elder that proved the catalyst for glory, delivering a sublime cross to the onrushing buffalo, who, with a flourish of his head , sent the ball soaring into the net with all the grace of a virtuoso pianist striking the final chord of a symphony. Though much of the contest saw the Rams engaged in a valiant rearguard action, the stalwart trio of Cashin, Admirable Nelson, and the Dorian Gray-like Forsyth, aided by the cat-like reflexes of Wildsmith, formed an impenetrable bulwark against the relentless onslaught of their adversaries. With second place now firmly within their grasp, the Rams find themselves masters of their own fate, the jubilant cries of “Ebouuuuuuu” echoing like a chorus of angels as the final whistle heralds their triumph, accompanied by the joyous bounce of victory.

That post reminds me of all your other posts. 

Thanks, did my entrapment help?! 🤣 

Condolences to you and the family Mucker old lad.
