    IslandExile got a reaction from Premier ram in Now we're promoted, what are your thoughts on League One ?   
    I prefer it to the Premier League. 
    If you're outside the clique of Premier clubs then each game is just damage limitation. 
    I hope the top six or whatever leave for some TV super league (Harlem Globetrotters anyone?) and the top domestic league becomes more competitive as a result. 
    Even the championship is now ruined as a competition by parachute payments tilting the balance. 
    At least League One was competitive, unpredictable and, in the most part, entertaining.

    IslandExile got a reaction from Derby4Me in B4 - for ever a Ram 🐏   
    It will be.
    I still haven't stopped crying myself.
    Oh the emotion. I was convinced we were going to lose the football club.
    B4 himself struggled with that and not being able to go to matches because of COVID.
    Ying and Yang - things will get better and they have - thanks to Clowes rescuing the club and, now, we've been promoted back into the championship as B4 knew would happen.
    It's just bitter sweet though because B4 wasn't there in person to see it. 
    Someone said on here they're not much for the afterlife, me neither, but B4 lives on in all of us. All those in this community were touched, helped in my own case, by B4's positivity and love of the Rams.
    I really miss him.

    The Carlisle fans summed it all up for me, 
    I met some on the train yesterday who were brilliant. About 30 of us Derby fans got on at Utch station to a chorus of, "your just a bus stop in Stoke" from them. 🤣 A couple of us were offered cans of beer from them and the banter was great,
    Walked up to the ground with some blokes who were sound and very respectful about Derby as we were with them. Proper fans of a proper club, they've had very little to cheer over the years but the miles they put in following their club is unbelievable.
    Good luck to Carlisle, hope they have a swift return to League 1 and to all the other clubs who have fans who choose to follow their local team rather than be plastic supporters of Man Utd or Liverpool.
