1-0 Sheff U away 1987, Phil Gee nutmegging John Burridge 10000 Derby fans rammed in the away end. 

Scoring one of the greatest Derby goals of all time in the process....
I have a fondness for the 4-0 win over Southampton in the PL under TBE. 0-0 with about 15 minutes left and then the floodgates opened. Eranio, Baiano, Wanchope and Carsley netting. The football we played in that spell was simply sublime.

Derby 2 Birmingham 2 was a great game, just as we were on the brink of going under. 
 
I remember the atmosphere at Pride Park being immense. Was my son's first Derby game too.

Grimsby Away 2017. Score: A-A
Ikechi Anya's best performance in a Rams shirt from what I recall.

Derby 3 Eusebio's Benfica 0
I remember someone, maybe Graham Richards or Gerald Mortimer, on the radio saying something like he saw Kevin Hector walking down the corridor, injured, in the afternoon and thought there's no way he could play in the game. But he did play, and he was brilliant 🐏

Cup 1/4 Final in 1976 V Newcastle . 4-2 win one of my favourite games and 4 cracking goals 
 

I was at the game and loved every minute from hitting the Neptune at 0930 and leaving the Brunny about 2030 en route to my hotel where I had another couple before hitting the hay, having been up since 0300.
I've just watched the full 90 plus all the shenanigans on the pitch afterwards. Congratulations, Owen. You didn't melt. You stayed very professional and did a sterling job. Your voice was so chock full of emotion, you could have been forgiven for having a meltdown but you soldiered on. Like a true Ram, fighting till the end. Thank you for your coverage, not just from last Saturday but also from the other 38 games where this expat watched and listened to #RamsTV just outside of Amsterdam. Already looking forward to next season's offerings and hoping I can, again, get over for around 8 of the games.
Ewe Rams!

B4 is ours, and we will always hold him close to our hearts.
But when you see the sheer numbers of names on the Rams remembered tribute at Pride Park twice a season, you see the scope of Derby County fans who die each season.
They are each and every one of them someone else's B4.

I didn't want to start a new thread but we lost another special fan last night. For those who know of Colin Attenborough, or remember a few months ago a message Paul Warne did for him (link below), he passed away peacefully in his sleep last night. I knew Colin by playing Poker with him - a great guy - passionate about the team - and I'm happy he was able to be with us until the promotion was secured. 
RIP Colin.

Fans & players together. 

If we sign Player C, I will personally hand back my season ticket to Mr Clowes.  
We don’t want that dikwad anywhere near our club!  

B4 believed when I, for one, had doubts and fears. He helped me through those dark days when I thought we'd lose the club. 
Thank you @B4ev6is.
Thank you David Clowes.
Thank you Warne, staff and players. 
Thank you everyone on here. 
B4 - we did it. The Rams are going up 🐏

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.

For me avoiding relegation is the main target next season.
The Championship has improved recently and the football is way better than L1.
There will be some very good teams !

I've made it quite clear that I haven't enjoyed the way we've played this season and I'm not totally sold on Warne being the one. He's proven himself to be, as John Percy described him today, The King of League One. How good he is in the Championship remains to be seen but the evidence we have to go on so far suggests he isn't too great there.
With all that being said, he has absolutely 100% earned the right to lead us into this campaign. He's 100% earned the right to sign 8/9 players and shape this squad how he wants it. And he should 100% be given the time to have a decent crack at this division with that squad (so for me that's Christmas).
I can't promise I won't be groaning on here if we serve up some of the same football we have this season. But I won't be calling for him to go unless something utterly disastrous happens. And that's from someone who isn't sold on Warne.
