  1. 6 minutes ago, Animal is a Ram said:

    Derby County. Saved.

    The joy, the relief.

    Mine won’t be the only story like this, but after the passing of my Dad, who was a dyed-in-the-wool Ram, former steward home and away, the love for Derby County takes on another meaning. It’s a link to family - past and present - for so many, and to lose it would be heartbreaking all over again.

    To see it saved means the world. And I’m celebrating with a Derbyshire whisky.

    I was listening to the 'emergency' Sportscene. I shed a tear when Ed Dawes came on in tears. I fully lost it when the Punjabi Rams representative (who's name escapes me, my apologies) was talking about the laying to rest of another member (again apologies) whose proceedings mirrored my Dad's. I'm in tears again, typing this.

    I really hope we as Rams never have to go through this again. I hope no fan ever has to go through this.

    We have our club back. Don't EVER take it for granted.

    Much love to one and all. My only regret is that I wasn't first to break the news ? I'd just got home from work, but seriously, this forum has been a haven - to know I'm not the only one who's life has been dominated by this one subject.

    I can't wait for that 30th July vs. Oxford. Win, lose, or draw - it's going to be one hell of a party. Let's sell this mother out.

    Peace ✌️ love ❤️ and Derby County ?

    Condolences to you and yours mate. Lost my Dad 18 months ago, and like yours, he was a Ram through and through. Your point about ‘Link to family’ is spot on. If we’d have gone under it would have hurt beyond belief, not just as a supporter, but as being part of the big family of Rams fans’ everywhere. Past and present. Up The Rams!
