So the season's about 10 months long and there's A THOUSAND EFL games being shown live? I'm as thick as a castle wall but i make that out at 100 games a month live, or 25 games a week, that's over 3 games every day 🤨
Sorry but that's overkill, complete football saturation. How many of our games are going to be 3pm Saturday? not all of us can finish work midweek, get to Derby, get parked up and walk to the ground. Public transport is non existent after a Night match
What about Rams TV, is this the end? will they be able to show games that are live on SKY? What's this going to do for away followings? one of the good things this season has been the quality of away support from so called smaller clubs, they arent going to bother if we're on Sky every few matches. All these numbers are based on if we don't go up, if we do then it's even worse.
Am i being hysterical or is this crap for football in general?

Well we've done our bit we've survived.
I've followed you all season and sincerely hope you join us, especially if you knock the Owls out.
Best wishes 

Sky TV is f****** s***, Sky TV is f****** s***.
Well done to the EFL for selling football’s soul even further. The best thing about this season has been football at predominantly 3pm on a Saturday. Yet again the people who go are shat on. 

Fewer 3pm kick offs may be of interest/concern to you.

When have we ever scored a hatful against Burton 🤔 over the last five games they've been better than us, their form over the last ten games has been better than ours and their form over the last fifteen games has been better than ours, in fact in the last TWENTY games of a season where we've been going for promotion and they've been battling relegation we've only managed a single point more than them!
Not saying we wont win, but then it's Pompey who are no slouches either. Still think we'll need something from the last game!
 

Not really, especially if they equalise 6 minutes into injury time

Rubbish performance, fine. Got a point arguably we didn’t deserve. Peterborough and Wycombe lost, did you all miss that? So we bettered their results regardless of how poor the performance was. We’re in 7th, 1 point closer to the play off places, and still have games to play.
It might not be likely, it is still possible, this isn’t “happy clapping” it’s very simply the reality of our ongoing season, you mardy lot 😊 

Put the three together and you'd have one decent footballer. They haven't kicked on because I don't think they are that good. All should have decent careers but not in the top leagues. 
I'd love to be proved wrong mind.

I’m pleased with warne as our manager , the one that puzzled me was barks disappearing from the side when I thought he was about our most in form player 

Sometimes there are youth game tickets, women's football or hospitality evenings that don't cost much. I got ticket for Norwich after the same issue you face, I purchased a ticket for a charity evening for £5 and then because I had purchasing history I could buy ticket to the Rams game. Not sure if there's anything like that on the Gas site as not looked 

Hey lads,
Posh fan here. Just wanted to chip in as have seen some interesting comments on this thread.
I’ll start with saying that in the first half you absolutely played us off the pitch. Most dominant performance from the opposition I’ve seen since forever probably. And I saw us ship 4 against Blackburn away in the first half last season! I was actually taken aback which is a rare thing at this level. Which begs the question are your forwards the issue? I thought Derby were quite powderpuff up front at Pride Park - we just couldn’t hang on with 10 men after a bad sub from our former manager. Same in this game despite playing us off the park. 
Second half - looking on this forum and Derby Twitter a lot of you seemed to have admitted defeat going into HT at 0-0 which was quite puzzling to us given what we saw from you. Why do you think this is a common thing with you? We had the same habit last season and ultimately got us relegated (especially in last 10 minutes). We’ve won 20 but lost 15 so we’re unpredictable.
I saw someone mention earlier going to the Royce pub and they thought it was a nice coincidence. Sir Henry Royce of Rolls-Royce was from Peterborough (Alwalton). Nice little fact for you. 
 
As for the ‘Peterborough being a dump’ comments, you’ll rarely find a Peterborian that would disagree with you. The irony of our nickname isn’t lost on us! The identity comments are interesting too - you’ll find Peterborough fans that sound completely different. We get a lot of support from South Lincs/Rutland/Northants. As soon as you go East of Peterborough it becomes Fenny (comboyn ‘arvisturr’). Then you’ve got the ‘London overspill’ descendants that follow us. The “only club where the home fans will sing Peterborough is a s******* I want to go home” comment on here made me laugh - it doesn’t get sung but a lot of our support is from outside of the city. So you’re not far wrong.
 
I’ll wrap up with advice for future visits. If you go to Drapers (the Spoons) you’re going to get herded to the ground probably. Same thing happens with Cambridge/Northampton/Leicester/Forest etc. Brewery Tap is popular (across the station). Multiple on Oundle Road as well leading to the ground. Charters (the barge on the Nene) a fan favourite as well - just buy multiple at a time as it gets packed.
Interesting to read your thoughts. You definitely seem a more intelligent bunch than Forest fans haha.
Good luck for the rest of the season. 
 

Thankfully been out all day so only had to catch up on the petulant rage in here and not live it minute by minute as it happened. 
Biggest take aways; 
Warnes crap for not changing things at HT (when we were putting in one of the best performances of the season away from home). 
Play Rooney and Thommo who have been liabilities more than reliable when playing this season. 
Can’t be arsed to read anymore. This threads a farce. You’d think we’ve actually had a good team and good football to watch for the majority of the past two decades considering the opinions in here. Entitled b*******. 
No doubt Warme and the team can do better. But f****** hell. Have a word.
 
 

Warne has a 4 year contract, until he has his own players he shouldn’t be judged.
Clowes won’t sack Warne anyway, his recent interview for Marketing Derby talked about 5 years to become an established Championship team.
I’m glad Clowes is the fan in charge of the club and not some of the clowns on here!

Last September I was playing football with my grandson,and hurt my knee. I didn’t bother the doctors because the knee gradually returned to near normal, but still quite painful at times. It was such a time I winced, and my wife “advised “ me to see the doctor,which I duly attended, knee examination, all OK, I asked for a PSA (having seen the information at Pride Park) check which he duly gave me the paperwork. The test came back 7.1, I’m over 70 so 6.5 is regarded as normal. I was dispatched to the Derby Royal, had the anal examination, ( for the first time) small lump found. In five weeks I’ve had a MRI scan,my prostrate biopsy done, and a QT scan,and I’m now on a hormone treatment plan. It appears they’ve caught the tumour early, and the prognosis is good, they say it will be eliminated. You do lose your dignity at times, but not going through that door and having the exam you could lose a lot more.
A shout out to the doctors and nurses at the Derby Royal, they have been absolutely terrific, informative, and very understanding, and caring.
 

No it isn't. There is no anti-Derby agenda by referees or their assistants. None whatsoever. 
Our anger should be directed at the self-serving piece of work who got us into this mess but Melvyn Morris CBE isn't a referee I suppose.

Words not needed

I don't think anything will come of it, but, we'll see. I just filled in British Transport Police's online complaint form:
I went to catch the train from Barnsley Interchange, following the Barnsley-Derby County football match, intending to travel back to Sheffield.
I wasn't allowed through the doors of the station, for a while, in the first instance. I posed the question: what? You won't permit me onto the platform, even though I've got a valid travel document? The answer was no - you're going to have to wait. Eventually, I was allowed onto the platform, just as the train was coming in.
As I expected, I was squashed up against the train door. I ended up standing next to two Derby fans, a husband and wife, with some other Derby fans in front of me, and then two members of the British Transport Police against the other set of train doors.
The British Transport Police officers let a few more fans on, and, at that point, it was hardly possible to move. Still, they continued to admit passengers, to the point where the volume of people meant that I ended up being pushed into the lady Derby supporter. I think this was preceded by one of the British Transport Police officers pushing someone, because they wouldn't (or could not, due to the lack of space), move down the train.
Understandably, her husband complained loudly, about the fact that his wife had almost been pushed over. Fortunately, she was unhurt.
My concerns arise from the way that the British Transport Police officers dealt with her husband. To contextualise - I am a Barnsley fan, and I was surrounded by supporters of the other club. The Derby supporters were loud, singing their songs, and many of them had alcohol. Their team had just lost, too. In my experience, a combination of those last two things can be a recipe for threats, aggression, and general unpleasantness. At no point, though, did I feel intimidated by any Derby fans - I was happily talking to a couple of them. For a busy train, after a football match, it was as peaceable as it gets. 
The fan whose wife had been pushed over was addressing, from memory, British Transport Police officer Smith, who normally works out of Leeds, and has been with the police, since 1981. If that doesn't identify him, I took some surreptitious video footage with my smartphone, which you can have, if you like.
It isn't verbatim, but parts of the conversation went like this, with 'F', being the fan whose wife had been pushed over, and 'O', being officer Smith.
F - why did you push my wife over?
O - I can push whoever I want. They (I think 'they', meant the yellow-jacketed stewards, who had been outside the train station) cannot, but we can, and we will, if we have to.
F - what? You're not even going to apologise?
O - carry on with your mouth, and I'll arrest you, when we pull into Sheffield.
I also had a conversation with officer Smith, just as we were arriving into Sheffield. He said he would have had no problem 'pulling me by [my] scarf', through the solid mass of humanity in front of me, and into the passageway which connects the carriages, if he had been required to do so. When I asked what the consequences for my health would have been from such a decision, he was unconcerned. There was not much in the way of a response to my comment that, if you treat people like animals, you shouldn't be surprised if they behave liked animals.
Officer Smith, when prompted by a different Derby fan, also expounded upon the subject of police intelligence, and how the police decide whether someone 'can be a risk.' Essentially, this came down to attire. Two of the brands mentioned by officer Smith, were Stone Island, and CP. I wanted to ask officer Smith whether this was the same mentality which sees Black citizens targeted, as a consequence of police intelligence, but, as he had already told me 'not to get excited', I thought better of it. 
Officer Smith confirmed that he had been filming, so you may wish to view said footage.
My own comments are as follows: it was only this morning when I read that one per cent of police officers, are under investigation, for alleged criminal activity of their own. It isn't even two years since Sarah Everard was murdered by a serving police officer. In more recent times, there's been David Carrick, too. Now, obviously - obviously - I am not comparing a rude police officer, whose every action I disagreed with, with the murderer of Sarah Everard.
But, if public confidence in the police is as low as it's ever been because of the above events, my experience on the train is not going to restore that confidence. Nobody I saw deserved to be treated with the rudeness, and contempt, which officer Smith displayed. An apology, and an acceptance that he'd made the wrong decision, in letting more people onto the train, would have gone a long way to defusing the situation. I make mistakes in my job, and, when I do, I apologise. And, this man has been one of the public faces of your organisation, for more than four decades!
I'm appalled. I've never done a thing wrong in my life, and yet one of the upholders of the law, thinks there is nothing wrong with telling me he'd pull me around by my scarf, through a line of other human beings, on an already jampacked train. I've been all over the country with Barnsley, and only the police in South Yorkshire, behave in such a high-handed, intimidating way. 
Thanks for your attention.

Proper heroes actually to most of the country at the time. Brave men who refused to be bullied or intimidated into striking when there hadn't been an official national ballot. But as Steadybreeze wrote earlier this subject doesn't belong on a football forum. 

Or more accurately the Notts miners never folded. They worked from start to finish.

Hello.
I read on the Barnsley forum, that there's a thread on a Derby site (I'm assuming it must mean here, but I can't see it), about the behaviour of the police, last night.
I was on a train to Sheffield after the game, and saw (mainly Derby) fans be treated/spoken to, in what I thought was an appalling way.
The Derby fans I was around, were loud, and some had cans of whatever, but they weren't doing anything wrong. Not aggressive, not swearing, nothing that would merit the police pushing them, until one was shoved into me, and fell over.
I managed to film some bits, and I know that British Transport Police Officer Smith, who normally works out of Leeds, and has been with the police since 1981, according to him, was the main source of the Derby fans' anger.
If the bits I filmed might be of any use, let me know if someone wants them. I don't know if there's anything that can be done, really, but I was shocked at what I saw.
Thanks,
A Barnsley fan.

These games should be season tickets before general sale 

You’ll go blind young man! ?

That won't matter mate.
You can just stand where you like, anyway.
 
 
 
...apparently!  ?

Its a sad state of affairs mate, been following it closely on 'The price of football' podcast. Good luck with it all and hope your club comes out the other end all the stronger for it
