My Dad is in his 80s, so he’s seen the League titles, European run etc etc. He was alive when we won the FA Cup! But he’s so tense/excited at the moment that he can’t sleep!
His excitement may be attributable to the 1968\69 season when we won league 2 with Sir Brian, for so many seasons Derby had been nowhere, then all of a sudden it was as though someone had waved a magic wand and all our football dreams came true. It was one of those "you had to be there moments" I remember thinking, at the time, that things like this didn't happen to Derby County but they did. 😀
Having seen the changes in our fortunes there's a feeling, deep deep down, that this might happen again.
Yes I know things have changed and money rules football but facts and sats cannot compete with dreams.

Which is good right? Which means he played well?
He was no Roy McFarland but he did a decent job so yes, it’s good.

We need to get Collo back in between the posts his hunger for the ball is attracting him to drift to the wing.

Really not liking the way both the Bolton and Posh forums seem to have us cruising to an easy and obvious victory today….. hope that mindset hasn’t seeped into the heads of the Derby players..
This isn’t going to be an easy watch…
Players need to be 100% switched on and patient. They were rushing things too much at Northampton and Wycombe.
Man, what I would give for an early goal to settle things down…

I would prefer 2 or 3 early goals to settle us down, I just want a boring, no drama, 0-3 win, its not too much to ask is it 🐏🐏🐏👍

I actually had a bit of bother getting it into the ground. Gate security at first said it wasn't allowed in
Reading through the regulations some of them would be near impossible to enforce👍

Rule 9 clearly printed on the notice entitled Official Notice Ground Regulations which was displayed around the BBG states
With the exception of authorised press representatives holding official passes, the taking of of photographs or cine photography inside the ground in prohibited. In addition no recording , whether for radio or television or for private use purposes and whether for transmission or otherwise save with a special authorisation in writing by the Club.
The sign is 2 feet tall by 15 inches wide, I was given it shortly after the last match at the BBG, the sign was clearly written before the mobile phone which allows everyone to carry a camera😂 There are 29 regulations on the sign, all of which I have seen broken in my many years attending the BBG🤣

We do need to go for the 3 points and not be dependent on the results of “other” clubs.
1. We want to celebrate promotion at Pride Park
2. Three points on Saturday would surely break the hearts of Bolton and Peterborough.

I'm a few years older than you and haven't been able to listen to or watch the away games since the Northampton debacle - even then, I've had angst about when to check on the final score and even which website to get it from - it's ridiculous! 🙄
I may just try to sleep through the game on Saturday.
There is a problem with sleep as you get older.
When I was younger I used take a nap now am older the nap takes me, I often wake up at the end of a film and wonder what happened to the middle bit of the film.😂😂
I have never fallen asleep during a Derby match there’s always too much drama .
i just want two more wins for the Rams with as little drama as possible and I will be happy Ram 🐏

And even if Bolton win both of their remaining matches they still cannot catch us. 🐏🐏🐏🐏🙏
