Dordogne-Ram

Thank you sooo much for your support mate! Really means a lot!
Next season we'll be upgrading to full club history bios, analyses of sides' last 142 games played, in depth player profiles, star signs, lunar movements and so much more.
You'll be sooooooo happy! 😋

PG Wodehouse from the directors box.
Ah, what ho! A jolly sight indeed unfolded at the hallowed grounds of Pride Park this fine day! One could scarce imagine a scene more befitting of the grandeur and splendor of a Gatsby-esque soiree, with fans cascading into the stadium like confetti, filling it to the rafters with their boundless enthusiasm. And lo, amidst the throng stood towering figures of Derby lore, Igor Stimac and Roy McFarland, resplendent as generals at the side of David Clowes, the club’s saviour, who basked in the adulation of the faithful like Caesar himself, hailed by the masses for his Herculean efforts in saving and guiding the club to the dizzying heights of the Championship!
On the verdant pitch, a veritable symphony of skill and finesse unfolded before our very eyes. A laser-focused strike from the departing Bird, akin to the graceful brushstroke of a master painter, found its mark with unerring precision, while Collins, with the poise and elegance of a seasoned virtuoso, seized upon a knockdown from the indomitable Bradley, who ascended into the heavens like a tattooed Rudolph Nureyev, his every movement a testament to the divine artistry of the beautiful game.
As the final whistle echoed across the grounds, heralding the sweet symphony of victory, a jubilant frenzy ensued, with fans spilling onto the pitch in a glorious display of unbridled exuberance. Oh, to behold such a spectacle would surely have left even the most stoic of gentlemen in a state of rapturous delight! And amidst the joyous tumult, Adams, Sibley, and Cashin, lifted high upon the shoulders of adoring supporters, stood as titans amongst men, their names destined to be etched into the annals of footballing legend.
Truly, it was a day of unparalleled magnificence, orchestrated with masterful finesse by the bobble-hatted maestro and his esteemed comrades-in-arms. In the grand tapestry of sporting triumphs, this day shall forevermore be remembered as a shining beacon of glory for the illustrious Rams of Derbyshire

I’m so happy for David Clowes. The man is a hero for saving our club and to see everyone standing up for him brought a tear to my eye. It was amazing when he lifted that cup. The Be More B4 also really got me, I hope Daniel’s Dad and sister managed to enjoy the day, although it must have been so emotional.
Massive thank you to Paul Warne and all his staff. He’s not everyone’s cup of tea but he’s worked so hard and fully deserves this.
Wish my dear old Dad could have been there, but I was with my son which is the most beautiful thing. It’s the first time he’s seen us achieve something and he said it’s the best day of his life! 
I bloody love this club.

Big screen as well

I love this team. A mix of our own boys who first kicked a ball with us when they really were just boys. Then through adversity and effort became men. Then the old stagers in the sunset of careers, along with a charging bull who said our field was his home, Then a loan player with infectious grit, humour and energy. An aging, bloody minded unfashionable striker who did what he was supposed to do silencing his critics. They became a team over 18 months with reserves of fortitude reinforced by a manager who understands character and what makes good people.
Well that was alright wasn’t it ! Thank you Max, wonderful parting gift (pssst you can change your mind if you want )
Did you see Collo in the first half asking the east stand what the Bolton score was ? 
Sibs played a blinder, NML’s touch is pretty ropey sometimes but Inam so glad he’s one of ours. Bradley came good with that knock down. Ebou ! What can you say ? Engine room, guts, effectiveness - sign him up. Wilson with a haircut like a 1950’s schoolboy had their RB on toast, with sprinkles and Worcester sauce. When are we building Nelson a new column ? 
 
Oh and why did we let their No 33 own the edge of the box on every corner ? Meh … who cares right now ! 
 
What a lovely day COYR … see you all in the transfer thread then  🤣

Surely he’s gotta stay on the coaching staff when he stops playing for us !? I still think he’s got one good season in the Champo left in him. Top man 👍🐏🐏🐏🐏🐏

We had no idea this was happening and didn’t see it on the screens 

I gave up about 4 season ago, you may not be going to any more games but you’re still a Ram for life.
I’ve been sitting here watching the game with my black and white scarf on, the tea and pies are better at home but I do miss the ritual and atmosphere of the match. 🐏🐏

For my dad, for B4 - for everyone that supported a team not fashionable - this is for you. This is what belonging can do.
super Derby, super rams 🐏❤️

May your matchday thread reign be long and prosperous next season!

It seems B4 has returned from his latest 'milk expedition'.
Big boss a bit cross apparently, as I hear B4's not exactly coming across as repentant...

Pompey fan here -- many congratulations on your promotion! Very will deserved imho, classy club, classy fans. Best of luck next season and look forward to locking horns with you next time round.

Glad Fozzy got to see a promotion with us. 
Not the one we wanted, out of the Championship. But he’s been a great servant to the club and glad he’s got to enjoy some success!

Happy and glad Burton survived 👍👋

Invasion 2 minutes early. Bolton will appeal in case Carlise scored 3 late goals. We'll be docked 21 points.

Leeds United we’re coming for you 

Quietly been an unsung hero of the run in for me. 

Alright, who organised the Be More B4 message on the boards pitch side? 🥲

Respect

Good luck for this afternoon, I hope you get it over the line for a number of reasons, and the odds are in your favour.
I hope you don't mind an outsider saying this, and I'm sure you all know this, but regardless of any euphoria or disappointment tomorrow, you'll all still be proud supporters - as b4 was, and is. As someone who read on here for a while before I registered/posted and saw lots of his comments when you were in a bad place;  I stand by the fact that whoever we support, we could all do well by being a bit more like him, when it comes to our clubs.

Beautiful photograph. My Franny 

Loved craig bryson, what a player.

COYRS 🐏🐏🐏🐏🐏 normally I’m a bag of nerves before a Rams game ( have been every game since my first one v Manure in 1970) but today I feel very calm , this bunch will get the job done 

Made me a bit emotional that! 
 
COYR !!
