    sheffieldram got a reaction from Crewton in Games That Aren't Talked About Enough   
    Coming from Sheffield some of the games against the Sheffield clubs stand out for me.
    5-2 win at Hillsborough against the Owls with 12 of my family and friends all sitting together with the Wednesday fans. It got embarrassing when my young sons jumped up every time we scored. 
    2-1 win at Bramall Lane in 1975 ,Franny lee scored twice. I have never found a video of that game plus our 1-0 FA cup win with Rob Hindmarch scoring.
    The 3-3 Cup game at the Baseball ground against Wednesday plus the 3-3 comeback game with 2 goals in injury time at Pride Park.
    There are so many other games over 50 years of following the Rams.
    What about the worst games ever?.......I still cannot watch the play-off final game against Leicester once Tommy Johnson scores our goal.

    Exactly the same. 
    Sheffield born and bred. Love Sheffield and a big supporter of Yorkshire cricket.
    I was only 9 and was to drawn to the larger than life character of Brian Clough.
    I was a Wednesday fan until 1969 when the Owls were relegated from the old first division.
    Derby finished 4th that season. I have supported the Rams ever since then. 55 years later and a couple of League titles was one of my better decisions.
    I feel bad to admit during the seventies we lost a League cup tie at Southampton 5-0 and I decided to support Liverpool.
    That lasted 3 days until I realised I was a Ram for evermore.

    Most copies are on sale on e-bay...........I have all of them from when they first came out. Some programme collectors may be interested
    Thought that I had missed a copy as one of them that was for sale on e-bay says it contains a poster of Lita Rocks and Hardy Boyz.
    Could not remember signing either of these players, especially as one is a woman until I realised it was the Rampage wrestling magazine.

    Even before the start of the season with all the money having to be spent on upgrading their existing stadium and the money being put to one side to build a new stadium I did think this was the best chance we have.

    Kevin Hector..my favourite player when I was at school.
    I was always "King Kev" when playing football. All the other kids were either Wednesday or United back in the day in Sheffield.
    If only his header had gone in against Poland and not been stopped on the line.
    I don't think I ever got over not making the 74 World Cup. The only other disappointment that came close was losing to Leicester at Wembley in the nineties.

    sheffieldram got a reaction from Phoenix in Stadium Tours   
    It was about 20 years ago when I last went on the stadium tour but well worth it.
    It was in the days when you could also combine a tour of the old BBG and we did both. 
    I love the old BBG but it was like chalk and cheese. I still have the old pictures we took on the day but if you want to remember the BBG full to the rafters with the lights on they are not ones you should look at.
    Weeds growing through the seating, tiles falling off the walls in the changing rooms ( I have been in better parks changing rooms ) everywhere showing its age and how small it all felt , especially in the corridor with the directors rooms and press offices.
    I remember the guide telling us during the Pride Park tour that the opposition are analysed closely before each game by a team of people.
    We had just lost at home 4-0 to Leicester and I remember asking if they had all been on holiday that week.

    Had to keep my head down at work since last Sunday but looking forward to seeing the Owls fans next week.
    Drove past Hillsborough today. looked busy with fans trying to get refunds for Thursday night.
    The Wednesday forum is a great place to visit at the moment....it does make me smile.
    Tried to ring some of my Wednesday mates but for some reason they are not picking up????

    It is a full house next week but if you were Wednesday you are going to rest players.
    What is the point in risking injuries and some will benefit from the rest.
    Third place is nailed on so why risk injuries? We on the other hand are still looking over our shoulders.
    Our inability all season to put chances away will come back to haunt us.
    Loans and free transfers will not get us past the likes of Bolton or Barnsley and living in Sheffield to lose to the Owls would be a disaster.
    On the other hand who would have predicted we would even be in with a shout of the play-offs just before the start of the season.
    I am fed up of telling people we cannot buy anyone.
