For me it's a show of support for a fellow football fan, no matter how young he was. 
No doubt he would have gone on to attend football games had things been different.
You are right, we clap a lot of people, hold minutes silences for many, give symbolic gestures for political movements, it does get a bit much...but
I can't think of anyone who needs a round of applause, or a show of some sort of love as an innocent 5 year old boy who genuinely thought no one loved him.
Forget football, I'd watch my club go to the wall if it brought him back.

He is as much of our history as Clough and Taylor but for the opposite reasons, the ying to their Yang yes we had an ageing team but he blew it to pieces and got it so spectacularly wrong in every way.

Brilliant pictures, all of them, but did you have to slip in the reminder of Tommy Docherty?

The difference now is that it's the Administrators and his man Kircher briefing him as opposed to Mel avoiding him.

Ying and Yang.....
When times are hard, don't get too down because things will get better again.
When things are good, don't get carried away, because times won't remain so good forever.

I hope your Mum feels a lot better very soon B4.

Very good point, and rather well put, sir.
I guess that may well (hopefully) make a difference!  ?

This club got through most dark days as losing family members I missed dearly and being on pain 24 hours 7days a week and 365 days a year. 
But one thing always been there for me apart from my mum who is having hard time right now supporting her best I can.

Mel, it happened under your watch, just pay the debt to HMRC.
This club has to survive.

No point In watching it now. ?

I hope roony is right and you too
Going through these times makes love this club even more.

Wayne Rooney has inside knowledge and he says the club won't be liquidated.
Even if it is, a new club will rise up again.
Don't worry @B4ev6is, there will always be a Derby County.
COYR ?

I miss it so much.
Thanks for the memories @loweman2 ?

I am call out to all Derby fans to start chanting save our club. If we lose Derby county I will be lost with out it in my life. I will not have anything left to look forward to at the weekends and I will be depressed as hell.

Dont worry B4. There will always be a Derby County as long as their are fans like you.
Even if we have to Phoenix and reform it will be people like you who will push us back to where we used to be!

Time for another trip down memory lane, there is a lot of uncertainty around at the moment with the same old diatribe being repeated verbatim on all the social media sites so how about we post some of our favourite images of the old place, no need to wallow in glorification but we could do with a collection of photos, memories and pictures to remember those days gone by , Stevie Bloomer, FA Cup ties, penalty spots repainted, seats flying through the air like frisbees, big norm and Frannie Lee, juventus, Real Madrid, fans around the pitch v Fulham, Shaftesbury Ave, Cambridge St, The Baseball Hotel, Champions of England, Todd and McFarland, King Kev, Charlie, Wanchope, Clough and Taylor, Docherty, Arthur, The Bald Eagle, Van der Laan at the back post, Popside, Ossie End, C Stand, The Paddocks, Man United in the 79s man United in the 80s, Leeds, Chelsea, Dave Mackay, Champions of England again, bomb damage in the war
Embracing the past is not the same as being stuck in the past and at a time when the future is so uncertain what’s the harm !
For those of us that went to the BBG it’s not the sort of place you forget.
im thinking next year of recording some memories and uploading them to a virtual museum type website as pat of a Rams Heritage project, so thought would be good to test it out.

Bolton fan in peace and sincerely hoping you survive. Just a comment regarding HMRC from our experience. HMRC tried to have us wound up by issuing a winding-up order on a number of occasions, first occasion was £600k bill and that was resolved in court by our ex-owner (we think) writing a cheque. The second occasion was just before we went into Admin with a bill of ~£1.2m. We went to court a number of times as the search for a new owner was continuing (prior to Admin - which I think protects you from Winding up orders) eventually we went into Admin, as it was clear we couldn't clear that debt.
When the deal completed, as I understand it, pretty much our first cheque from the new owners, was to HMRC to settle the outstanding.
The situation was same with Bury, over much smaller amounts. HMRC issued a number of winding up orders.
It felt to us like HMRC were just dying to wind up a few football clubs, and in our case, there was no "dealing" with them, other than to find a way to pay and buying time through the Admin route.
 
Good luck with your fight - it's always the fans that suffer.
