As it is today 

From the Daily Mails article of Ghost football grounds, it shows the grounds of football clubs who have moved to a new home

I know what you mean in terms of perhaps feeling we don’t have the right to say we miss him because we never met him in person but I’ve come to the conclusion that places like this forum really do become communities and you do get to know people if you stay around long enough and post on a wider range of topics ,
I too miss the lad and he will be a massive part of what I remember about this season , a season I am really enjoying for many reasons , here’s to Dan , proper derby fan , one of our own 🐏

When I joined the Dead Sea was a bit under the weather! 😆

Blimey!  Just how feckin' old are you!  😲

Goal music is something I really hate.
One usually gets the initial bit of passion and enjoyment of the celebration before the crappy music comes in and pours water on it.
It usually curtails my celebration and I would gladly see it consigned to the depths of history.
It’s just too much like forced “fun”, which is another thing I can’t find time for.

It's crap, cringey and completely unnecessary. 
That is all.

Pompey fan, in peace.  I read (a lot) and posted (a little) when you were having issues with the ownership.
I just wanted to pass on my belated condolences for B4's passing - as an outsider it was clear how much he cared about your club.  It's lovely to see how much warmth he commands and how he's being remembered.
I'm sure it doesn't need explaining that I hope my club gets up, but having read some of this thread I hope you manage to make it up with us.  It's also a great reminder that football clubs are all about the people who support them.  Raising a glass to Daniel this evening. 

When Daniel died I kept seeing rainbows everyday. I know how science and weather works but I like to think that’s his way of saying hello… or guiding dcfc to the back of the net 😂 I got to write a message on the dcfc changing room white board for the team to read today. I asked them to score a goal for Dan. Ebou delivered 🐏❤️🐏

I really love that the memorial brick says B4
Was he known by this anywhere else, or is it a symbol of his legacy on this small corner of the Internet and the legacy he has left here?
Feels disingenuous to say I miss him because I really didn't know him, and those who did, they actually miss him for real.
But I definitely miss his contributions and his enthusiasm and his passion

The "that's why I love this club" at the end warmed my cold, dead heart. What a man. We must sign him.

Just sign him permanently. Simples.

Just sign him permanently. Simples.

Just sign him permanently. Simples.

Just sign him permanently. Simples.

Hang it in the Louvre

Bearing in mind I  missed the Bolton game due to "Other stuff", I've gotta say, I thoroughly enjoyed this afternoon!
The walk in the sunshine to get there.  The queues at the turnstiles at 14:48.  The grit, determination and effort on the pitch.  The atmosphere from all points of the compass stands.  The cracking view of a cracking goal.  The relief at the final whistle.  The post-whistle celebrations on and off the pitch.  Heck, even the drenching from the 5 minute hailstorm on the way home!
No.  It wasn't a classic.  But it was bloody enjoyable, and I think every single one of us deserved that, after last week's all round poor output.
By jove... I do believe we're on our way... To the Championship, we're on our way...

Thanks @B4ev6is  
You can clearly see his influence here with the rainbow marking where he’d guided the ball into the net. 

Great interview with Ebou Adams talking about Derby County, his faith, Ramadan. Four o'clock was his last meal. No food or water since. Wonderful attitude and discipline. Fully deserves MOTM.

About time!

Derby County’s new manager 😂

A little bit of Daniel at Pride Park forever ❤️ Give him a wave when you pass the east stand 🐏
