Yep,just another example of our ineptness on the transfer and player front.
I'm sure Bristol City will be getting a lot more out of this deal in more ways than one.
Meanwhile we are left empty handed.
Crazy.

Forest AND Everton.

The orange was the le Coq, followed by Patrick, the away version of this was the blue and white stripes and the light blue and navy blue stripes, they also wore red that season.

Fabulous. Please do keep us up to date as I definitely want to buy. Thanks @loweman2. 

As part of my collection and the rams heritage group that we have formed, myself and Jason Shardlow aka est1884 or boyfromtheterrace have with the help of toffs recreated the first Derby County shirts you have a badge, we had that embroidered by a third party and toffs applied it for us to the Bespoke shirts that they had made for us, it has really brought this period back to life and will be at future rams heritage displays so look out for events.
the away shirt.

Bloody hell, couple of tough looking buggers there. I reckon the wingers are back row third from the right and front row first on the left. Defenders one either side of the goalie and front row second left. Centre forward middle front row. ?
Love them striped shirts an’ all.

Suite and Sour?

Don’t know why but this thread made me giggle. How did you know they were Chinese people ?. Could have been North Koreans for all you know. Takeover bid incoming from Kim Jong Un

This is far from usual. In this day and age, someone taking the time. Effort and endeavour to selflessly make someone’s life more enriched. Is unusual in the extreme 

A truly memorable and heroic effort on your part, @loweman2.  In awe of what you did for Jim.
It'd be nice to think the other players from his generation would drop him a note to congratulate him after so long without what was rightfully his.  He earned his medal and you earned my total respect for doing this selfless act.  Well done.  Hope your son is proud of what his Dad and Grandad managed to achieve.  Great for him to rub shoulders (well, his shoulder to their hip) with such legends of our club.
Cheers!⛹️‍♂️ 

I can honestly say that's the best bit of DCFC related news I have heard for decades. Well done and sincere thanks for sharing.

Thanks for posting this. Something special about that group of players from the amazingly successful team of the early to mid 70's. I guess we all know in our hearts that it's never going to happen again. 

Righteo

It is a very difficult job at any level. Just like players, referees will make mistakes. Unless VAR is improved and fully introduced into the pro game, then showing controversial incidents on screen isn't really going to help in any way. It could even make the situation worse with referees feeling pressure and doing something to rectify their initial mistake.
