    Not sure if my above comment is being counted as derisory, would like to think you know my banter now over the years.

    On the history, if the club had a museum like you have been pushing for, I would take a trip down to walk round, but I don’t feel like I would have any connection to the content that is pre childhood for me.

    I love looking back at the shirts that I remember opening at Christmas, but further back, I find it hard if I’m honest. 

    Not sure if I’m alone with that, and it’s not exclusive to football, but history in general and even TV. I never grew up watching Star Wars for example, few years ago I tried watching from the start and it was terrible, without the nostalgia I had no connection to the characters despite knowing who they are.

    I would guess I’m not alone, but then there are many that are different and appreciate the collection as a whole better than myself.

    Don’t take banter as “derisory comments” though, this forum was built on it and nobody escapes, I did read though like you asked ?

    We're all different mate. I was born in '86 yet love history from long before I was born but also love to reminisce about my own childhood memories which is why I bought the '95-'97 shirt for possibly over the odds.

  2. Anyone have Rooney to injure one of our players?

    at this point, nothing could ever be unbelievable. So with in mind, my prediction is a Derby Player to crash whilst drink driving to bring us full circle…. And we get to live it all again and again like some sort of Hell.

     

    what did we do so wrong in past lives? ?

  3. Looking forward to this, I'll be driving up and have been looking on Google maps for somewhere to park and could not find anywhere. 

    I emailed the club and they replied within 5 minutes to say "I would recommend the Singleton Road area, to the east of the ground, particularly if you can arrive early."

    Although I might be doing myself out of a parking space, thought I'd try and be helpful!

    That’s one hell of a kite attached to the roof. 
    As someone who has (but never used) a structural engineering degree I’m fascinated in the forces involved in realising this design. Not to mention what the hell they’re making the component parts from.

    And before you automatically dismiss wind as force on buildings, Google ‘Tacoma Narrow’s’

    Not sure if you had much of a look around the site, but under "about" there's a section on Structural Engineering that doesn't go into loads of detail, but touches on the Carbon Fibre etc used.

    In truth, I posted in jest, as in "They're having a bad enough week as it is".  (I know... lack of refunds are no laughing matter!)

    Of course, if you or anyone else feels the need to chase up their refunds, then that's not for me to comment on.

    Easy for me to say, as I'm in the same boat as @Tamworthram above.  Option 3... 20/21 discount already applied.  20/21 Free access to Rams TV now fully satisfied (using that word very loosely!  Ha, Ha!).  Credit for the 21/22 season ticket expected to be credited in due course (23 x 23rds of the sum paid).  No refunds outstanding.

    Best of luck... to you, and everyone else in a similar situation.

    Yeah, mine was option 3 too, but I'd already bought it before the discount.... I thought the covid thing was all being blown out of proportion and would be a distant memory by August... what an Idiot ?

    I'm not desperate for any refund (thankfully), just curious.

    Probably best to stay patient.

    I hate to think what the reaction will be if you rang to complain, given the week they're having!  Give it a week, mate... if not two!  

    I've given them about 60 so far ?

    but knowing it's not just me, I will just wait it out.

    I'm in the same boat.

    No worries. As long as I haven't been forgotten ?

    I was all for patience when all this started but over a year is pushing it! I don't even remember what I'm owed, what's happening with next season, and a quick search of my email tells me the last email the club sent me (that wasn't trying to flog me more stuff!) was September.

    I guess it's the same for all/most/some of us.

    To play devils advocate - if we stay up and the takeover goes through. He leaves us with: 

    Some of the best facilities in Europe. 
    One of the best academies in the country.....

    Do we though? Genuine question. A year or so ago I believed so but I'm not so sure now
