    eccles the ram got a reaction from i-Ram in Best signings so far   
    Cashin for me. If he keeps maturing,especially playing with Davies and other older heads we have just signed, I predict he will go all the way and playing for England is not out of the question. UTR!

    eccles the ram reacted to IslandExile in The positive....   
    So, we're starting to look back at Mel's tenure, the last few seasons and almost going out of business.
    I have to say that the threat of Derby County, the club that has been such a big part of my life, being liquidated was mentally and emotionally debilitating.
    Sure there are far more serious things happening in the world but I personally found it really tough to deal with.
    Nevertheless, thanks to many people - especially David Clowes, of course, but also Rooney, Team Derby, everyone at the club, and the supporters (more of them in a moment) the Rams have survived and can start to look forward again.
    So now, knowing that the worst is over, we can start to look back and pick out the truly good things that came out of the past year.
    The supporters.
    Unbelievable. Fantastic. Superb. Remarkable.
    There are no words that do justice to the pride I feel to count myself as a Derby fan.
    I'm so sorry that my circumstances meant that I wasn't able to be on the walk, at Moor Farm on relegation night or at Blackpool but my physical absence doesn't make any of those events any less than real stand out moments.
    The petitions, the lobbying, the campaigns, the support from other clubs' genuine supporters was outstanding.
    The togetherness though, between fans, players and club.... I've never seen anything like that before and I doubt we ever will experience anything quite like that again. Beautiful.
    Knowing that Derby County has come through it all and survived, I believe we can now look back and say "that was a great season".
    Thank you.

    The only figures we actually KNOW are the number of seats currently unavailable.  
    How many ST's sold so far? We don't know. All we know is that 10300+ sold in the first 2 days they were on sale. How many more were sold on Sat/Sun/Mon/Tue? They haven't said.
    One thing I do know is that I will be buying a season ticket. My first in 40 years since emigrating. I still live abroad and might make between 6 and 8 games as per usual but there comes a time to stand up and do what you can for  the club. I already pay £17.50 a month for RamsTV. I can afford a season ticket so will buy one. Bloody airlines are forcing plane tickets sky high but I'll just have to grin and bear it. 1 game a month at around 500 a throw all in. DTID.

    If we sell 15k season tickets it will be phenomenal, truly exceptional support, we would start the season averaging around 17/18k 
    After what we've been through coupled with the economic tsunami enveloping us, it would be a fantastic show from this great fanbase of ours.
    If, if, we get anywhere near 18 or 20k  ST's then I will run out of terminology to describe the magnificent awesomeness of the devoutness of the diaspora of Derby County FC devotees.?
    There will be games where we have very little away support at Pride Park, some games we won't have horrible away fans like Brum, Stoke, Gumps etc to bait (at least we'll have Sheffield's second club I suppose), there'll be cold days playing average football, Division 3 is brutal, but we can make this season as enjoyable as the last one from a fans point of view.
    Bring it on, the South Stand is going to be full, the SW corner too, lets get behind Liam and the boys with loud, passionate support from the first game no matter how many are in the ground.

    I’ve not renewed yet, but I will. 
    The new simplified pricing works against me a bit, we are low down in the east stand. Those who are higher up and have a better view and never get rained on, pay the same. 
    Having said that, I’ve sat there for so long that, when I have moved for a cup game etc, it doesn’t feel right, it’s not the same experience. So, I’m still thinking about where I will sit, but 99% certain I’ll be back in my same seat, blinded by the sun at times, and soaking wet at times too.

    After yesterday's high I decided to have a couple of sherbets and have a banging head this morning. For some reason I started looking at the alphabet (as you do when you are drunk) and thought about today's headlines about us stated in alphabetical order.
