    Duracell got a reaction from Dordogne-Ram in Can you help?   
    Thanks everyone for your kind messages - I've shown them to him, including from our guest from the coast, and even the smallest well-wishes from strangers can give a boost to people in his situation that I didn't appreciate until this happened.
    Events like this makes you realise that it's the fans that make the club what it is. Thank you!

    Hi everyone,
    My Dad, a life-long Derby fan and season ticket holder, recently suffered from a stroke which left the right side of his body paralysed. Up until it struck, he had made the 200-mile round trip from Aylsebury to Derby 
    His progress has been remarkable since - he can how walk short distances and has gained a lot of mobility. 
    I would love to take him to the final game of the season with Carlisle to see out the journey. I would be devastated for him if, having supported us through thick and thin all his life right up until the stroke, he missed out on us winning promotion. This is where some of you could potentially help.
    Our season tickets are about as difficult as it could be for someone with mobility issues: East Stand Upper, on the half-way line, half-way between stair wells. I'm just not sure I can safely get him up there with a capacity crowd.
    I am only asking having tried to arrange disabled viewing with the club, who cannot help as the game is sold out. Does anyone sit in a lower block, close to a stairwell, who would be willing to swap seats just for this game? I'm only asking as this is a final plea!

    I can't help with tickets, but I hope that: a) your Dad's progress continues; b) you manage to get him a ticket for the final day; but most importantly that he continues to progress his recovery.  You don't need to tell him a Pompey fan sends him best wishes, but I'm pretty sure if others from the 92 saw this note they'd all be saying the same thing.  Love to you and yours.

    Sorry to hear this, although glad recovery is happening and you’ve already had a response.
    My dad has had similar health issues recently. Mobility is a big factor, although he still manages the 2 hour train journey most home games. We’ve moved season tickets to front row of North stand for next season for this reason. Not a great view, but is ample access for him and quietest part of the stadium for footfall. Football is better when shared with others, so glad that you’ll (hopefully) get to share it with your dad
