West Brom fans invade the pitch at Chesterfield after scoring a late equaliser. Against a non-league team.
I'm not sure even Forest fans could be that pathetic.

You're correct, you can't see much from there, I live right next to the NEC and I've had to get a ticket in the east stand..........btw, the caravan and motorhome shows are always in February and October.?

... just costs £1.1m pa to keep the bloody thing switched on!  ?

Some will have a gammy leg, and prefer an aisle seat... quite possibly on a particular end of a block, (as they only have one gammy leg!) and none were available by the time they looked at purchasing a ticket?
Some will prefer to be directly behind a staircase barrier, (Or front row of West stand upper?) as opposed to someone's head.
Some may have a bad neck, and can only look forward or to the right (Northern end of West Stand is closed, Southern end of East Stand can be a bit standy-uppy, and very close to those boisterous away fans!)
Some may prefer to be directly behind a goal... but not in an area infamous for standing, swearing, slurred speech, and drug-induced imbalance!
Some may only go in their usual group of 6 (friends or family), in two rows of three?  No other combination will do!

On a more serious note... there are even people out there who would simply not sit anywhere other than an aisle seat, as being mid-block leaves them feeling trapped, vulnerable, and unable to escape quickly enough, should a war-related panic attack ensue!  (Other causes of said panic attacks are almost certainly available, I presume?)  
 
We all pick our seats for various reasons.  Some are more choosy than others, yet none of us should be judged on it!  
 

I don’t know the answer, maybe we should have a poll asking why 10,000 people that have bought a season ticket don’t want to turn out tomorrow, when they do for the rest of the season.

I'd have been 12 days short of my 20th birthday.
Already shacked up with young mouths to feed, this was during my budget-enforced DCFC Hiatus, (as was the vast majority of the 80's/early 90's) so had to make do with the TV offering of the day.
Still great to watch it again though, so thanks for the reminder, @loweman2  ??  
 

"Treecards for Treetards"
 
Quite catchy, that!  ?

Mate you are tinpot !

21 points, and I don't give a ***** because we are Derby County and I cannot count

And Lee Evans successfully making the move from comedy into a career in footy playing midfield for the tractor boys. 

I was at the game as he walked round the pitch at the end and every fan - Derby or Chelsea - applauded him. Absolutely legend. Lovely guy, ready smile and twinkle in his eyes.
Feel this much harder than Pele personaly ...modern day footballer who I've watched in the flesh and looked like he could run through brick walls. 

My stomach knotted up reading this thread title!
Truly sickening!
Not only because this is the same b****** cancer that took my mother before I'd officially even exited my childhood, but this bloke was not just a bloody fantastic footballer, but he also came across as a thoroughly decent chap.
...And he ain't even proper old school!  Practically a modern day player in my mind! ... and younger than me, to boot!
 
Such sad, sickening news.
May you rest in peace, sir.

As long as we don't fritter away our chances, we should batter them.
 
 
Enough now... I'm getting a haddock!  

I would rather we (or rather Mel, but either way) were £20 million worse off but still be in Championship tbh.

There.  That's better!  

At least t’other son’s been a Derby Season ticket holder since 1986, one out of two ain’t bad, as King Charles would say ?

Unlike plucky Leicester who shafted all their creditors , went up and the whole football world is up their a#rse ?
