    Kernow reacted to Day in It's Our Moment   
    Perfect and much needed post on this forum.
    Whilst this isn’t up there with becoming Champions of England, for many at your age this will be as you say, the first taste of success as a Derby County supporter.
    Our opportunities for success are limited due to the state of the game. This could be the only cause for celebration for the next decade, plus.
    Think some of the older fans need to appreciate that and not spoil this moment with the constant doom.
    I have 2 promotions under my belt, Jim Smith and Billy Davies, even your post even makes me feel like a veteran, yet I’ll still enjoy this one.
    Just booked a table down the local in front of the screen, going down with a bunch of mates who I will fit out with Derby shirts from my collection for the day.
    To quote Paul Warne, up them beautiful Rams! 🐏

    As I woke up tired and hungover this morning, I had a thought. While it's always great hearing stories about the glory days of the 70s, the iconic 80s and the fun 90s, there's a whole generation of Derby fans who have only ever known disappointment. I myself had my first season ticket in the 2006/07 Billy Davies season, but I was too young to properly appreciate it.
    Since then, it's been a mix of hope, heartbreak and 'nearly' moments. Our generation of supporters have witnessed other clubs' fans celebrating siuccess (sometimes at our expense), but we find it difficult to fathom what it would actually feel like for Derby to ever get over the line.
    Yesterday, as I walked back back to the bus with my arm round my mate's shoulder, belting Derby songs at the top of our voices, I had the first taste of what it might feel like to experience success as a Derby fan. This morning, I started making preparations for post-game jaegerbombs and cigars next weekend. And thinking about how I'll be raising a glass to the lad that we all miss. 
    We're not over the line yet. But I'm well into dreaming territory. And for us fans who aren't old enough to know glory, it's going to be oh so sweet.
    Up the Rams.

    David Clowes rescued our club and appointed a manager who he believed would get us promoted back to the Championship.
    It looks like that bit has been done barring a ridiculous turn of events.
     
    What happens next? Lets leave it to David Clowes to continue to make good decisions, He's doing ok so far.

    Funny you should mention Bielsa when Warne is criticised for running the players into the ground.
    Anyway, you're comparing managers that have much longer CV's and been at clubs where the base level of player has been better than what Warne has had at Rotherham to work with.
    By going up, we are entering new territory with Warne having a club of this size to manage, we are not Rotherham.
    I just can't understand the eagerness to write him off as being this incapable fool, surely the bloke deserves a little respect and a chance to manage this club in the Championship and prove his inabilities?
    You went from this team wouldn't stay up, well duh, shifting it to his inability to get the best out of players whilst we're 1 point away from achieving promotion.
    Feels like you've just set out to moan and piss on peoples chips on a day where we have moved to within a point away from promotion, no matter how much you may dislike or not rate his abilities, the timing is just bizarre, why can't we just sit and enjoy the moment instead of playing Nostradamus.
    Whilst it might not be promotion to the Premier League, it's still a promotion and a significant one at that, if you can't just sit back, crack open a beer and enjoy it, I don't know why you bother with the game. It's not often we will have moments like this where the club has achieved something.
    FA Cup, League Cup? Not a chance, the only other things we have left are promotion to the Premier League and Premier League survival, now in a week where the FA and PL have colluded to F the football pyramid over, to think the only time we can celebrate will be when we join that lot is s sad state of affairs.
    And that's coming from someone that's desperate to see us back in the Premier League as well.

    It looks as though RamsTV will no longer be able to show our games live next season, unless you are willing to take a short holiday abroad.

    Automatic promotion odds on SkyBet, looks like you may be looking at promotion in general which would include playoffs.

    I really fail to see why any true Rams fan would go to the game next week knowing the sheer torture of losing and Bolton winning and being present for the bleakest day in our history (apart from all the other bleak days that were bleaker).
    Let me carry your burden by taking your ticket off you.

    They’re potentially going to have to chase the game second half which should suit us. Get Barkhuizen on at some point along with CBT and play on the counter.
