Write up on his only game, I think!

Matchday 14 – Saturday 23rd October 1971 & the visit of reigning League Champions & Double winners Arsenal to the BBG
Arsenal started the day in 5th place, a point behind the Rams so a good result was important here. Some familiar names amongst the Arsenal side – future BBC Sport front man Bob Wilson, future title winning manager George Graham & one Charlie George…
 

 
Pre-match edition of The Ram reporting that the club made a marginal profit in the previous year – greatly reduced from funding the transfer of Colin Todd in particular. Also at the top of the page, a clown at The Sun (Frank Clough – no relation) declaring after our defeat at Man Utd he would eat his match report on toast if we won the League…

 
Derby’s win lifted them into 3rd place as Sheffield Utd lost yet again, this time at Man City. The gap to leaders Man Utd was still 4 points though as they won away at Newcastle;

Matchday 13 – Saturday 16th October 1971 & a visit to Old Trafford to take on league leaders Man Utd
Unfortunately, the last unbeaten record in the division was to go as Derby fell to a 1-0 defeat here in front of 53,400 – Utd’s winner coming courtesy of George Best just after half time.
Here’s Alan Hinton taking on two Utd defenders from the game..

 


 
Programme of the day from Old Trafford..

 
Derby stayed in 4th place despite the defeat but now lay 4 points behind Man Utd. A good day for the leaders as Sheffield Utd lost again & Man City were beaten at Leeds;

Glad you found a few things to buy. Had a good day and enjoyed a chat with fellow DCFC collectors.

A bit of Rams tat I suppose... 

The Derby football programme & memorabilia fair is tomorrow at Nunsfield Social Club, Boulton Lane, Alvaston from 10.30am - 1pm. Entry is free. Hope to see some of you there. I'll be the guy with a load of Ram newspapers from the 1970s and the Derby County Memories magazines.

The Ram newspaper was Derby's official programme throughout most of the 70s and early 80s. The example below is from the first league game against Manchester United.

Morning all. 
A football programme & memorabilia fair will be held at Nunsfield Social Club, Boulton Lane, Alvaston on Sunday 5 September 10.30am - 1pm. Entry is free.
Similar fairs have been held at this venue for the last few years with good attendances so please come along to support if you can.

It will be at Field Lane Football Club in Alvaston which is around a mile from Nunsfield Social Club. Don't know if the bust has been built yet though.

Another Leeds-based Ram here. Born in Derby, had a season ticket with my dad between 1995-2000 before I moved away to university, then again in 2003-2004 when I temporarily moved home after graduating. Relocated to Leeds for teacher training in 2004 and have never left. Usually make it to 3-4 games a season with my dad still. Agree with Rev's comment about fans who support from a distance more likely to use this forum than those who are based in Derby and hear Rams-news all the time.
