    Good work @Ram@Lincoln and great numerical reasoning but last 2 home games we projected 30k crowds based on seat counts availability but each was just around 26.5k so maybe we have to factor in a 5-7% absence dampening factor? Ie seats sold but occupant absent 

    The absence dampening factor where seats are sold but occupant absent requires to be factored into the 26.5k that are actually there in body, but unfortunately never there in mind!

    And if there’s about 3.5k seats sold, but empty seats on match day, can I sneak in, and sit in just one of these seats as I’m absolutely skint and always available for a freebie, known as the freebie, it’s fkn freezing factor!

    Ps……has anyone seen my hot water bottle, I left it round here, somewhere?

  2. Another wonderful 3 points (not pints) away from home.

    Enjoying a quiet weekend at home, after last weeks weekender at Bognor Regis for the Rockaway Beach Festival.

    When the trains went on strike on the Friday and a simple 1hr 30mins train journey from Gatwick to Bognor turned into a 9 hour bus ride, including 3 buses with a 45 minute break in Portsmouth,with a pub for a pint, that nearly came back to bite me when the young lassie bus driver, driving the local bus on the last leg of our journey (no toilet on the bus) pulled into a bus station with numerous bus stands, and popped into a bus workers office. So I legged it off the bus after crossing my legs for bloody hours, asking the locals, where's the toilet, with the rep!y their isn't one (Great fkn Britain I thought!) so I was faced with 3 options, get back on the bus, try the pub toilets 30 yards across the road, or pee behind the nearest tree, keeping my eye on the bus, knowing the next bus would not arrive fof several hours. Tree it was, felt great, I thought I was covered,zipped up, and saw the bus reversing out the stand. Legged it, banged on the door, girl wouldn't let me back on, stood in front of the bus, yelling my bag is still on the bus, she reckoned I could get her sacked. I screamed which way are you turning at the lights, so I could leg it to the next stop to get back on, the bus moved 10 yards and hit a red light, she still wouldn't let me back on. Bus conductors in the depot, told me to move, she"ll run you over, then she opened the doors of the bus and I got back on and apologised for getting off, what with the train strikes and all. I thought at that moment it's 2023 and a lot of the time we don't even have toilet facilities where they are required in Great Britain, how sad!

    But what's even sadder, is when Derby County win away and some fans take the choice of whinging about such, get real.

    Sunday Sonic Boom was brilliant!

    Up The Rams.

    And if I could work this blooming kindle I would delete this Early Doors episode below.......but I can't!

     

  3. Still calling…….but unfortunately after e-mails requesting support and stories ,a request to @Elgin_Ram about e-mail address DM, and nothing back except @2tupssupport and a maybe (shrug of shoulders) from @RadioactiveWaste it looks like @Inverurie Ram and Inverurie Ram Juniour will probably come down to a game in late Feb, early March on our own again,with the support of that DCFC Family that @uttoxram75talks about, out there somewhere, with a “We Are Derby” workshop unlikely unless 2 or 3 of us, just do it by Zoom, I prefer real life myself, but hey ho, I’ll still always keep trying, knowing nobody will ever take my passion away for the love of Derby County ❤️

    “Come on Derby….Come on Derby

    Sometimes I look deep into

    your eyes, I swear I can see your soul”

    Up The Rams

    …….and one day I might be lucky enough to meet up with @uttoxram75 for a pint before or after a game. Yeah keep the faith.

    So come on Call Me…….(whatever you like!)

    It was an odd one on the post-match with Warne. Radio Derby had been banging on about him being injured so they asked the manager how he was. Warne replied that when he substituted Barks, the winger claimed he was absolutely fine. At which point Warney said something to him along the lines of "then why were you dragging your leg along the pitch as if you were a mermaid?" Our manager is mad as a box of frogs, but is getting results.

    And I think he’s the most honest, sane, he says what he thinks, no hidden agenda’s, caring, warm, hard working, respectful and successful managers, we’ve had in years.

    And I’ve met a few frogs in my current line of work, moving them along, so I don’t accidentally kill them with my mower, and to be fair, not one of them have been crazy. Maybe I need to collect them and put them in a box to see if they go crazy, but probably not.

    Up The Rams!

    Don’t worry PW has whacked The Clash Tommy Gun on, at half time for everyone to enjoy and the opening blast of the drums will do the trick.

    SB talking to @Owen87ITK reckons we need to be more aggressive in possession second half and we will.

    Bring it on……..

     

    Bang on!

    Cambridge….. Your gonna get it!

    Trains are travelling along as they normally do in the Aberdeenshire area.

    I will not be giving anyone a lift anywhere, as it’s the season to be merry and my car is enjoying the Christmas Holidays also, by remaining in the same position for several days and doing very little. It’s owner might warm it up, now and again, by hiding in it, from the kids, and listening to some music in peace.

  8. @loweman2Merry Christmas ?

    You are right again, my friend, it does make an excellent gift for Christmas.

    And if any Rams fans are twiddling their gift vouchers and gift money not knowing what to do with it.

    I can highly recommend The Colours of The Rams book, a great gift for birthdays and to any of your mates, that need a handy reminder of how wonderful Derby County have looked since they were formed.

    Keep up the brilliant work, to all the guys and girls that help make this book, what it is, another brilliant part of Derby County’s wonderful history.

    I don’t live in Scotland (it’s a lifestyle choice) but I could qualify under great grandfather rules, and I also quite like Dundee cake. 

    Your in, I heard your call, now all you’ve got to do, is get yourself to Pride Park, whenever I can drag anyone from Scotland to come along with the Aberdeenshire Rams.

    I promise I will not drag Mr Roos along with me, he might have to do a bit of overtime and he’s usually quite busy on a Saturday.
