    Went to RamsTv full 90 & ffwd’ed to 38 minutes when Collo crossed from the left which flew high & wide & a lovely tribute from fans and @Owen87ITK “…a minute’s applause for Daniel Beavis who passed away …known affectionately online as B4 …& you will never meet another more infectiously enthusiastic Derby County supporter, travelled home & away to watch his beloved team & will be sorely misssed by friends & family …& this is a lovely tribute…” <crescendoes of applause & camera pans around showing fans applauding >. Very moving and will live in our memories forever. 🥲

    Really loved the tribute to B4 Daniel. Stood along with thousands of others to show you will never be forgotten (also really good of BR fans to join in). I didn't know you but feel like I did through all your posivity on here. We will catch Pompey for you mate and will go up this year. Will be looking for a rainbow in May showing you approve. God Bless. UTR!

    Anyone got any idea when exactly I'll be able to visit this thread and not end up with tears streaming down my face? 😢
    I'm so pleased that people got, and took the opportunity to pay such a wonderful tribute to Daniel. I think for those of us here, or those that met him at games, B4's been such a tower of positive strength, especially in the last 3/4 years when it's been needed most. I raised more than one or two in the young lad's honour last night. 🍺

    This will be only the second away match I have been to! Look forward to meeting everyone who will be going. I’ve met a few already. What do we reckon the score will be? Who’s taking a flange 🤣

    Bit of a strange one today. I honestly couldn’t give a damn if we played well or not today. My only concern was to win the game for B4, and I am so glad that we did. This was for B4. Never met him, but I didn’t need to. His posts told me all I need to know. A true Ram. One of the good guys.  The world is worse of without him. Quite emotional really (and I never met him! Just goes to show how many people the man touched indirectly), I am so used to seing B4 on the forum, that this place is never really going to feel the same without him. It all feels empty. Rest well Daniel, enjoy the win. If more people were like you, the world would be a much better place.

    Something along the lines of the fan led applause being for Daniel Beavis, a true Rams fan both home and away etc.  I can't remember it all tbh but it was quite a touching eulogy.  Both the applause and comments by Dominic Dietrich came across well over the radio.

    Gotta admit I was listening intently to Radio Derby up here in North Yorkshire hoping to hear the applause in the 38th minute (it came across loud and proud).  I wasn't expecting the commentators to mention it, let alone talk about Daniel for as long as they did. 
    B4 touched a lot of lives and trust he was happy with the recognition he got today as he looked down on us all going through the agony that is following The Rams.  I'm pretty sure he tied the defenders boots together for the first and willed the ball into the net for the second!
    Its still sad to think we won't see anymore of his rousing posts on the forum.

    Was just awesome to see you all clapping in the stadium with the minutes applause. The commentators did him justice and it felt emotion mixed with some pride watching. 
     
    I was applauding too from my living room in Lapland. 
     
    Keep on watching up there B4 lad…

    It was good on 38th minute. Pleased so many clapping around us in West Upper but had to explain it to some older fans around us. Hope B4 would have been proud although the excuses of those on here who couldnt be there today would have been given short shrift 😂
    @B4’s Sister love to you and your family over the difficult and sad times ahead. Lets hope Derby can achieve promotion this season to dedicate to your brother x

    Good result. Good clap on 38 minutes. I sometimes have a feeling B4 is watching over these games. I mean how did that second goal go in?
    I think Derby need a guardian angel.

    Wasn't able to be there today. Had to be at work, but managed to sneak out around 3.35, and stood alone in a freezing Yorkshire car park, thinking of all B4's posts, and wishing I was at Pride Park.
    Today's result was for you B4.

    As per my previous post, B4 made me proud to be a Derby fan. Well today everyone of you who applauded for him on 38 mins made me proud too.
    So glad it was a late winner, we know who had a hand in that goal. Watch over your beloved Rams buddy, they are fortunate to have you as their No. 1 fan.

    Was gutted we missed that great chance in the 37th minute!  I was literally praying to the heavens at that point... and I haven't even spoken to God since about 1968, when the infant school headmistress told me to!  
    So pleased we ground it out in the end, and got those 3 points for B4.  🐏
    A great effort all round by us clappers, I thought.  Went really well... although as soon as I sat back down, I had to explain to the querying guy behind what it was all about.  I just find it weird that there are folk in the stadium that don't come on here!   🤣
    I didn't cry obviously, being such a tough guy, but yeah, there was very much a lump in my throat... and a hint of a smile as I looked up.
    I hope he was reet chuffed!

    I'm tempted to say I hope I have that many applauding when I go, but knowing my luck, that will be as soon as they get the news, and a bit scattered, not the planned concerted effort of respect we saw today! 🤣
    I was secretly hoping for a minute's worth of "#BeMoreB4" flickering around the electro-hoardings, but then forgot to look, as I was too concentrated on looking up'ards!  Not seen anyone comment, so I assume this didn't happen?  Shame, but fair enough, I guess!
    Great to hear B4 got a mention on the commos though.  I too would absolutely love to hear a re-run, if there's such a thing out there? 
    And of course, as well as Daniel himself, I truly hope the family... and particularly our new mate @B4’s Sister... were touched and proud of the response... as it was no less than he deserved. 👏
    He was a top guy then, he's a top guy today, and he'll remain a top guy for eternity.
    Sleep well buddy.
    UTR
