Run of wins? They've each won two on the trot, none of which were away at Portsmouth. Over the last 6 games, only Peterborough have picked up more points than us (one). We're all in similar "form" as far as results go.

My next guess. Didn't know if he had played "soccer".

Shhh and defintely don't tell Cardiff!!!

Shhh and defintely don't tell Cardiff!!!

I miss chatting to Dan at away games and think of him often. He would be loving this run in, no wobbles for him! We'd discuss tactics in the concourse pre-game, how many we'll win by and possible goalscorers over a cuppa (me) and a pie and a pint (Dan) with much enthusiasm. 
I take my photocard of Daniel to every game, and feel he is still with us, willing us on.

Let me in !!!!!!
 

Me and my dad went to Bournemouth away in 84 and didn't get back till 3 days later, it was ages before he was allowed out again!

I think we'd be entering into rallying cry territory as we head into the final four games. He'd be bloody loving it.

That Uncle Derek had a pet snake that spat at you if you stroked it too much.
 

I Used to tell my lot that the Ice Cream Chimes were from the daily Grimsby Fresh Fish van.
Some thing they now still use on my Grandkids today!

For what its worth, I think we will lose to Wycombe and win the last 3, finishing on 88 points.
It could, just, be enough.
Fortunately my English is better than my maffs 😆

No chickens counted on my behalf, but for those of a certain vintage, who was at the BBG in May 86, the last time we escaped from Div 3? 
What a season (or 2) and what a night. The tension, the floodlights, the queue at the chippy. 
Over 21,000 in those days was like 40k right now. 

I can still feel the rush of joy as Christie stroked home that peno - cool as custard. Arthur was, and still is, The King.
And when I win the lottery, Arthur and Graham Richards will get their statues outside PP.
Different times, but almost 40 years on, I’ve got that promotion tingle again. 
Super Rams 💪
Please post any videos from 84-90.  

 
Also, ‘Mr Fitzharris of Bolton’, I love you 🤣

Its always brilliant when those red t**** lose.

Envelope full of cash?

Bookies have us as more than narrow favourites. With SkyBet, we’re 1/3 for automatic promotion, Bolton are 3/1.
The point last night was massive, I think we really have to s*** the bed if we don’t get promoted from this position.

Yeah absolute stinker 2-2 at the leaders sort it out Warne 

Great point, done by a one off wonder strike that Wildsmith so nearly pushed away. Thought Warne got the tactics right. If we'd gone all out attack pretty sure we'd have lost that. Nelson & Cashin rocks. Collo worked his socks off, as did CBT, who was toast at the end. Adams is class and broke up so much in the middle. Really hoped NML would shine tonight but he had a quiet one by his standards. But a point's a point, away to the league leaders. It's still in our hands. 

Even if we won tonight, Pompey to beat Bolton all day long!
I really couldn't care less about catching Portsmouth, I guarantee you that come around 14:30 on Saturday 27th April, if we are sitting in 2nd place, not one single part of me will be disappointed we didn't win the league.
Get us up, get us out of this league, 2nd will be perfect thank you.

Just for one night can we ditch Paul warnes barmy army that only half of us sing anyway and replace it with B4s barmy army who predicted this even when the wrist slashers were out in full force.  It would be great for his family to hear,  either his dad who will be there or his sister on the telly 

Hope you good people make it back .✊

Hi Rams fans,
Have been following your forum for a wee while and thought I'd stick my nose in.
Registering took a while but I got there in the end, so.
To quote Neil Young, 'Tonight's The Night'. I guess tonight's game isn't pivotal, but things might be a little clearer..
Last night's results didn't help either of our clubs, in the end it's in our own hands.
Main reason for joining Rams board is the family split that exists....I am Pompey, my son is Derby., He and I have had
little contact due to past ructions between his mum and I...Last time I saw him he was a part time Celtic fan. (He was
born in Scotland, where I lived and was married for some 20 years. I took him to see a couple of Pompey games but
he wasn't impressed, took him to my school where I was a goalie...unimpressed. It was only when my ex remarried that
the Rams bug seemed to bite. Dunno if picture will show on this thread.
Tonight will be interesting, even if it's a dull game. A draw would suit us fine and I have to say that our final games fill
me with some dread. We had a 'blip' earlier in the season and recovered. This time, any blip will not be recoverable.
I have followed Pompey for over 55 years (youngsters refuse to believe me when I tell them we have an innate ability
to mess up just as we're about to cross finishing line. (I guess this is what attracted me to Hearts when in Edinburgh,
very similar ground, fan base and fatal flaws!) How you can beat us....classified I'm afraid but we have some very obvious 
weaknesses you can exploit. Don't go into game looking for a point, teams that have done well at Fratton have come out
and taken game to us.
Why are we top of the league? Many fans mutter 'They're nothing special..have seen much better' These fans are often right.
Many of our performances have been sub-optimal BUT the one aspect that has run through most games is a newfound
belief that, even if we o 0-2 down, the situation is recoverable. Games last 95 minutes or so these days...we manage to keep
believing the situation is retrievable. It's this that has sent us to the top...plus a pretty stingy defence, a creative midfield
and strikers who, on their day can tear any League One side to shreds. Last game against Wycombe their left back wanted
to go off suffering from 'twisted blood'. (Gag borrowed from Man Utd, George Best joke.) On their day, Kamara and Yengi,
supported by Bishop and Saydee are a real handful.
Lat night's results went pretty much according to form but previous games have shown all the maths and super computers
in the world simply cannot predict what will actually happen.
I hope you guys go up....Derby are a 'proper' club, part of the game's history BUT...so are we. Nobody has a divine right to be
'top of the tree'.....Anyone else remember the hushed tones from tv pundits when the mighty Man Utd were relegated?
It was as if there had been a death in the family.
Treat both success and failure as imposters....keep supporting your club. Good luck to all Rams making the journey down..
I see a few travelled down over the weekend and have already sampled some of our local beers.
All the best Rams...., Nick 
 
 

I reckon our players and management will be able to file a 'tonking' under..'bad day at office'.....BUT..I don't see it.
We (Pompey) have managed to keep our nerve...thusfar but even Mousinho is allowing players to dream of promotion...sure fire
way for things to go pear-shaped. I saw someone else suggest we shake hands before game and play out a 0-0,,,you remember scanle when Austria and Germany did that in World Cup?
