    Franks Tanked got a reaction from Comrade 86 in Fans not from Derbyshire...   
    Ha ha, I'll let you know. There's still a bit of growing into the Osca Sportsweek shirt before he moves into my old blue chequered square away kit from the late 80s. Here's a picture of him from a few years ago donning the old Patrick shirt, he's probably grown out of that one now although not sure where the shirt is.

    As mentioned on the Huddersfield thread I missed the game down to Our son being born. I’m glad to say he’s home well and healthy! This will be his first game he will be watching along a lifetime of fun and pain that is the normal of following Derby County. 
     
    Also had my Father purchase a Derby County baby grow just before my Mrs tried to slip any Villa stuff on him (The same was applied with my other lad) ?
     
    Ps thank you for all the messages and well wishes on here ???

    @chipperram you weren't sitting outside a cafe in Needham Market High Street wearing the Zebra DCFC shirt a couple of weeks ago were you? 
    If not its another suffolk based Ram or a visitor. I nearly made my wife crash, such was my excitement when I spotted said Derby fan.

    Yep,so as we thought and suspected,no new players in.
    Encouraged by the passion of the academy kids against notts county however but crikey we are going to have a fight on our hands.
    In many ways I'd rather we went down fighting with our academy lads giving it their all for their club than a bunch of short term contract pensioners who care nothing for us.
    Looks like Wayne was sadly out of the loop again too in relation to our in's....

    Ahhh, good to know. There's a couple of more Rams fans in and around Stowmarket as Atco Qualcast relocated from Littleover Derby to Stowmarket back in the 90s which later became/what is now Bosch. 
    We'll have to meet up for a drink/match at the Swan in Needham some time. I currently have Sky but my deal runs out in December and not sure if I'll renew, especially if we're doing poo! 
    I have a brother from Coddenham who's also a fan.

    Born in Derby 1980. Lived in town, before moving to Allestree as youth. Dad's job relocated us to Stowmarket Suffolk when I was eleven and still here now. Everyone supports Ipswich (a few Norwich) down here. But it was too late as I'd already experienced the BBG buzz many times and became hooked. DTID. 
    I've seen Derby away at mainly the East Anglian games more than I've been to PP and lucky enough to somehow get playoff final tickets with my limited purchase history which I'm sure will upset a few. In fact the only game I went to that season was the Carrow Rd floodlight failure which we came out on top, winning 4-3.
    My boy turns 7 next week and has had DCFC kits since he was 3 and has also been handed my older brothers old 80s shirt with the sportsweek sponsor. I'm thinking about treating him to a game at PP soon but not sure if it will be more like torture!? I need to get him there before I take him to Portman Road which is only 20 minutes up the road or he'll soon become a full blown Tractor boy.

    Good price that, 39 quid. I suggested similar, well not really that similar I suppose as my idea was hooped as opposed to striped...got slaughtered but I still like the idea and still think it would go well with jeans and my highly polished blue Doc Martens.
    I accept however I am in the vast minority. ☹️

    Moved with my job to a few miles outside Leicester in 1978. Spent one season going to watch the likes of Leicester, Notts C, Forest, Coventry and Derby, depending on who the opposition was that week. The following season it was only Derby and has been for the last 42 years. Given Leicesters' success in recent years do i have any regrets about not following them - not a cat in hells' chance.

    Can I be paid only £5k to do the thing that I like doing more than anything in the world.
    And earn enough to buy a small house in Derby, outright, in one year.
