    Fantastic stuff loweman2. As an ‘outsider’ my memory bank of The Rams began when Derby signed Franny. I’ve often mentioned (sorry to bore but it’s ‘my’ special story why I’m black and white and not blue mooning) Franny made this nine year old cry rivers leaving my beloved Man City for a new chapter under Dave Mackay. So from that day I became a proud Ram and despite my family doubting, I never returned (They are my number 2). Anyhows...... I may have missed it but did you ever get hold of Mr Lee for this series? Be fantastic if you did/could!!  

    I met Tommy Booth at a party, someone I watched regularly from the terraces, he does corporate stuff at The Etihad, strange for me that the pre Lee era I’m all Maine Rd memories. Now I have many memories from BBG and PP when I had a season ticket. ?

    Cider (after five ales) . Still celebrating Saturday. Return to work Wed, I’m sat in Marple and everyone who enjoys a tipple of real ale or cider do try The Samuel Oldknow (look it up) . Wonderful, maybe subconsciously it’s a warm up for Fri considering how superb Bristol is for cider/perry

    From the crafty crow, walk down over Maid Marion Way and call in the Ned Ludd, they normally have some decent beers on.

     Ned Ludd as I type Reveldevil. Room With A Brew closed till 4, not what was listed! Appreciate the tip as it’s on the route. Beer fest on at the mo too so plenty to go at. Can’t believe how big Nottingham is.

    Tomorrow sees me making a third trip to Nottingham to enjoy their finest ale houses. Thought about wearing the colours but I’ll take a back seat to any football conversation overheard......maybe. 

    Lining up.....

    Make sure you drop in to the Tap while you're round that way - a quite comprehensive selection there.

    Exeter Arms is my particular favourite, though. Dancing Duck, if I recall, my favourite of theirs is Dark Drake. Good pint of stout, that.

    I've just passed The Tap and am in Exeter now. I'm rather bladdered but the ale is good quality and I've had plenty. Waiting to get my chariot back to South Manchester and am definitely Bladdered. Denise in the Exeter, top gal !

    The tickets for each 4 hour session were about £50, so it’s as much free beer as you can reasonably queue up for and drink in that time. I easily spent that in 4 hours at Indy Man Beer Con last year so it seems a decent deal

    Sounds quality mate. I'm currently in Silk Mill and about to head to Exeter Arms, beers have been terrific today. You Derby boys and girls have got some terrific pubs.

    My first port of call is The Greyhound. Derby brewery Triple Hop 4.1% rather good (that's an under statement). Think I took the long route from the station. I ought to know Friargate from driving through it hundreds of times but walking is another matter. First visit to this pub.

    Some exotic ales pictured for sure. I'm heading to the fine city of Derby shortly to partake in some wonderful cask ale being offered by some terrific ale houses. Not being from Derby I'll look forward to engaging you good folk in banter on many subjects..... Then again I may just get drunk.

    10m for Jordan Rhodes, phew! I've always rated him but 10m. A few years ago I fancied Rhodes and Le Fondre as a front two. Neither much more than about 5 and a half foot but it'd have been interesting. Goddard and Saunders were terrific together and neither very tall so it could have worked :D
