Brammie Steve

If anyone saw me after the game trying move out of the way I slipped over on my back but I am fine. Derby played some exelent football and derby fans in our great numbers.
I think derby can catch the top 2 and hopeful we shall win this frreaking league. 

I must be greedy. 1317 received vs 88 given. Thanks for quenching my thirst ?
 
I'm also sadder than you, at 3.7 per day.
Definitely a lot of sad people out there, since I also have 1.04 'likes' per post.

On  checking my profile I find that I have treated folk to 322 drinks but have only had 106 back.
It seems sad to spend three times as much on others than I get back.
Still..
It is more blessed to give than receive...
Isn't it?

Doesn't all the EFL drivel do likewise?

Neptune visible to the naked eye in ESE tonight.
What can anyone else identify?
SkyView is a great free app BTW!

Just seen the highlights.
What a fantastic response from our traveling fans to that second goal!
No wonder Cambridge tried to limit them!
Looked more like the Kop, well done every last one of you!

A good foundation to build on, for sure. Definite change in philosophy, albeit not always executed brilliantly in some phases of play, as I still felt the ball when in the final third became slow but getting the ball into the final third was markedly quicker. I did like the set up of the team and everyone knew their job - brave to set up like that away from home but Chester and Cashin are brilliant in those wide centre back positions. Osula came on and gave an indication of what he is about and can do for us going forward. Dobbin showed his quality. Collins looked like a different player with someone near him. 
Impressive performance away from home, most importantly a great start for Warne and the confidence of the team going forward. 

I just can’t believe it …. Angie said arse ?          ???
I mean, rear, derrière, backside, fair enough … but actually the “A” word … well .. I am shocked to the core ?

A few of us had a great time coming up with the 'bush of misery' which would allow us to stick up comments like 'Steve made a terrible cuppa', 'Steve did that annoying fake laugh on the phone again' etc. But we decided it may seen as slightly negative.

We were given feedback from a survey of what other staff members thought of us. The reports highlighted the negative comments and made all of us feel miserable and undervalued. Whatever senior management intended it backfired spectacularly (and still rankles over two decades later!)

I just want to say how lucky you are to have Paul Warne as manager. I've supported the millers for 69 years. Obviously, I've seen managers come and go during that period. As far as I'm concerned, and many other fans Warne is the best manager we've had.
Like Derby fans we went through some dark times. Administration points deducted, lost our ground, forced to play in Sheffield in an athletic stadium. No atmosphere, 4 years in the 4th division.
Paul has many qualities. Excellent staff management, a workaholic. He's articulate, honest and will live and breathe Derby County.
I thank him for all the memories, 3 Wembley wins 3 promotions and I wish him well and as a consequence wish the Rams well. I've never had a second team, but for the first time Derby County will be my second team. I look forward to seeing Paul succeed. 
Hopefully Derby will be promoted and we survive in the championship and look forward to see you at the New York stadium.
All the best.
 
 

I was always told it was difficult to get into Cambridge unless you were rich and privileged but this is pathetic!

The Welsh like a good sing song and this a cracker, I thought the chorus summed up our great club and it's fans over recent times
 
 
 
We are still here
We are still here
Despite administration
Despite Mel Morris
Despite the EFL
We are still here
We are still here
 
 
Ok it's late and I've had a drink 

The Baggies have great memorabilia as you go to meetings at the Hawthorns.
Although I support the Rams I was surprised and proud of WBA's history as I live near their ground.
Anything that enhances the local area can only be a good thing IMHO.

Loved that Derby team - and even more after Todd joined - but it’s testament to Clough’s brilliance that they humbled that ManU line up. 

Roy and Brian Hinton.

So following on from Sir Alan Hinton sending me over his treasured signed and worn White Hummel boots to restore and share things then moved on a step further, Alans two younger brothers Roy and Brian came over to visit me, they brought some more of his books over from the publisher who is based near to where they live, as you can see from the photo there is no mistaking them for any other than Hintons, they were great company and full of stories of their older brother who was obviously their hero growing up before he was famous.
I have known Alan a long time maybe twenty years since he first came over to my mum and dads house with John O'hare for a cup of tea and we have always stayed in contact and i have always been over to see him whenever he comes to the UK which is most years so he knows what i am about and my ethics and what i try to do in putting together the history of teh club mainly through the shirts but also many other items of intrest that i rarely post.
I am not some sad old anorak i am a normal fella with a beautiful wife and a great son 12 year old son and a dad who i treasure and include him with what i do as it was him who started me on Derby County from birth so he can now endure the obsession as its his fault, i have built up an acquaintance and in some cases a friendship with many of the ex Derby County players especially those form the 70s and 80s for the obvious reasons that the team from 1968 to 1976 was legendary and the team from 1982 to 1990 was the one that i grew up with in my teen years and went on that fantastic journey with them, i am a genuine person and my collection is built upon trust that i wont use it for financial gain.
So back to Alan, himself and the family want me to put many of Alans Derby County related items into my collection, these will be shared with the DCFC family through events with the Rams Heritage Trust that many of you know i am one of the founding trustees with Jamie, Paul & Joe, we all have the clubs intrest at heart and our aim is to work closely with the new owner and to try and find a way of a display area being set up within Pride Park and maybe attach it to the ground tour, very much in the way that Arsenal have done it so well, made it all about the history of the club not just trophies. i will of course share items online as always, mainly through my twitter feed @phillowe1 as that way people can follow it who want to see it and it doesn't bore those who don't wish to see it.
I have built up a a good reputation online with many other football historians and collectors and work closely with Andy Ellis & Jason Shardlow on the book that we did and is updated each year with new content based on the shirt collection and the colours of the rams from 1884, i also speak with and spent time with Peter Seddon who endorsed the Racecourse Shirt collection of the first five shirts worn by Derby County, he actually is one of the 12 members of the collection.
There are some great items so i will post them over the next few days and hopefully this will become one of those posts that you can come back to each time you see it appear on the time line as new content will have been added.
Finally how great it is that we have our club back, for one moment a few weeks back i thought that we had reached the end game !
massive respect to David Clowes who really is just one of us ! 
Up the rams !!
 
 

Sorry never meant too mate
Sigh

Yes it's a bit confusing, CAN SOME ONE CLOSE IT DOWN
