scout's dad got a reaction from NG2Ram in The Morning After, The Morning After...
Mid-table mediocrity for me for the next season will do for me. Look what happened last time we did things too quickly.

The Radio Derby coverage before and after the game was immense. Great having Eric and Malcolm together on there too.

More "Club Legend" than "Another Old Boy"... although technically he had old boy knees when he was still playing, I suppose! 😉
Lovely to see that! 🐏🤍

Deleted after it caused another wave of tears that nearly flooded the Trent. It’s a shame they aren’t as good at picking up points as they are at whinging

Just got back home.
Two pints before the game at DW sport place good atmosphere good beer choice for the location no real ale.
Record fair and Bustler market after the game good atmosphere poor craft beer choice given the location no real ale.
Neptune good atmosphere real ale mediocre.
Standing order good atmosphere good beer real ale.
Dolphin good atmosphere good beer real ale.
Shakespear good atmosphere good beer craft beer but no real ale.
Bess good atmosphere nearly run out of beer, so never had a drink.
Home bad atmosphere wife already gone to bed expect no conversation for several hours in the morning then a lecture about stopping out for so long.
No beer for several days will have to treat her for a meal before I am allowed any beer again. 😂

As a side note, some lovely words from @Owen87ITK too, to go along with that displayed message. Well done that man. A deserved and fitting tribute. 👏

it's tough decision to take, I hope your final game for now has a happy ending.
And never say never, there is always a way!

scout's dad reacted to Geriatram in My last match today
Sadly this will be my last match today. My first was in 1956 as a 13year old, My dad used to take me before that but he stopped going when we went down to the third division north. My mate and I would catch the 12 oclock bus from Melbourne and be the first in the ground. We stood in the Normanton end pigeon loft, I think it was 3 shilling. To this day I remember that team. We were champions in 1957 and I ran onto the pitch after the last match against Southport, Ray Straw scored 37 goals that season, The next ten years saw me start work, get married and have two children, I had moved to Derby, and after my family, the Rams were the most important thing in my life I never missed a home game in those ten years even though we were only an average second division side. And then in 1966 after England won the world cup my mate and I decided to have a season ticket, Little did we know what would happen that season, I was at work one day and a Rams supporting work mate told me we had signed a player from Bradford Park Avenue, his name was Kevin Hector I'd never heard of him but he was without doubt the most wonderful footballer to grace the Baseball Ground I had ever seen, and because of this we wanted to see more players like him which led to Tim Ward getting the sack and BC becoming Manager, what followed was ten years of unbelievable success and enjoyment. And then things started to go wrong off and on the pitch and I stopped being a season ticket holder during Peter Taylors time as manager, i still loved The Rams of course and when I turned 65 and retired my old mate from Melbourne and I bought season tickets again. But sadly covid left my best friend of 80 years with a dementia problem and he know no longer knows me. For the last two seasons I have been going alone to the match but its just not the same for me. Therefore I am calling it a day, as I write this I am welling up as I will do this afternoon. Thank you Derby County for every thing I will love you till I die.

B4 April 2023, If ever we needed a rallying call, different game but the sentiment remains exactly the same!
Well calling all derby fans to get really really really behind the lads we need get behind the lads lets have wall of noise and have sea of black and white let's have scafs flags and balloons let's cheer lads on into the play offs. The louder we are the better lads play. Let burton players shake with fear and let them think what on earth have we got our selfs into here.

Burnley v Forest’s last match of the Premier League season could be a very, very interesting watch!

It pains me to say it, but they'll stay up, simply by the virtue of Burnley & Luton being slightly more rubbish than them. Having said that, if Luton grab a point or three at Wolves it'll put massive pressure on the Treetards to pick points in their home-banker against reigning Premier League, FA Cup & Champions League holders Manchester Cit-eh...
