I think Ed gets a lot of unfair stick from some quarters. Some of it quite vitriolic. And there’s no doubt he cares about this club. I quite enjoy his match commentaries. I also enjoyed Dom’s commentaries as well. 
Having listened back to the podcasts of the coverage on Saturday for me it was excellent from the whole team. Just what I like to hear from our local station. And they need to get Malcolm Christie on as a regular as well. 

Big thank you to mozza for organizing the League 
It's easy this prediction thing, just trust your Rams bias and go for a win more often than not (not sure that applies to next season) keep positive and above all

Great photo of the academy lads put on Twitter by Sibley…

Remember when there was a clamour for Rooney to be given the Freedom of Derby??  This man really deserves it.  He stepped up when others couldn’t, or wouldn’t.   In doing so, he paid local business more than the minimum amount.  He recognised the importance of DCFC on the fans and the community.  He saved our club 🐏.

Awesome bloke, cant thank him enough!!!

I'm generally not that keen on "keep them on because they're good around the dressing room" contracts but they absolutly should for Fozzy, one more season as cover at left back and centre back? No brainer.
Last standing Nigel Clough player as well.

Don't know whether people noticed, but when the players walked out onto the pitch with their kids pre-match, Sibley had Fozzy's son with him. Nice touch.
May have been other younger players with similar, but it demonstrates the togetherness in the squad.

Like many fans, he’s known nothing but heartbreak. Delighted he can finally celebrate us getting over the line.

👍

I was one of those who met you on the pitch after the match and said a few words. I think it's only natural for you to feel a little down today. It has been a whirlwind few weeks and emotions have been high. I hope you do start to feel your spirits lift soon and I'm sure they will. Take care of yourself and I'm sure we're all looking forward to reading more of your posts very soon.

Thank you for sharing that with us as it really is a comfort to know Dan passed peacefully, im sad for our loss as fans that knew him personally or on here but my heart breaks for you and your mum and dad 😢

We don’t know the reason for it but Daniel just stopped breathing in his sleep. The ambulance crew got a very faint heartbeat, so he went onto life support in ICU but he died two days later. Nothing showed up on hospital tests or the digital autopsy, so the coroner stated natural causes. He had a cold prior to it but had said he was feeling better. It seems that he would felt very little if anything when he stopped breathing, which is some comfort. The night before he had been at the Crewe away match and had fish and chips for his dinner. I’m glad he was doing something he loved on his last evening. Today is very tough 💔

Respect

The lads did it buddy. You never lost faith in them, Derby's No 1 Fan.

I've been thinking that for a while.  When he signed for Bristol City promotion seemed a long way off, but now we've achieved it - and I'll admit I don't know much about Bristol City, you can't imagine its a better place to train and play football than Derby.
Shame to see him go, great goal and standing ovation though.  Once a Ram always a Ram 'n all that.

Pompey fan here -- many congratulations on your promotion! Very will deserved imho, classy club, classy fans. Best of luck next season and look forward to locking horns with you next time round.

Thanks to the players, David Clowes and Paul Warne 😀

Invasion 2 minutes early. Bolton will appeal in case Carlise scored 3 late goals. We'll be docked 21 points.

Adams still 100% in the 90th minute. Gotta love that guy 👍🐏🐏🐏

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.     

I'm sad to see Birdy go. Can't help thinking he's made a terrible decision to go to bloody Bristol City....

Just need to keep that clean sheet so Wildsmith gets the golden glove (or Pompey get a goal against Lincoln)

WE'VE f****** DONE IT LADS.
 
I LOVE FOOTBALL
