Don't believe in second team nonsense, how can you have a second team? It's weird, it's adultery.

Moderators, Surely that’s worthy of a ban. ?

When I first moved out here I was often asked for my second team (few had heard of Derby County, bunch of heathens). My reply was always Derby reserves (it was 24 years ago). "Ok, your third team?", "Derby under 21s!". "Fourth team?", "Derby youth". "Fifth team?" (getting a bit taken aback). After some thought "Derby ladies". "And sixth?". "Sorry, are there more teams available?".

AFC Wimbledon. Born out of one of the biggest injustices in football in 2002 which galvanised a bunch of fans to stick two fingers up at the FA. We think we're going rough times now, imagine being in their position then.
They were told by the FA when their club was stolen from them that setting up a phoenix/new club was 'not in the wider interests of football' just to rub more salt in the wound. Started in the Combined Counties League anyway & 9 years later, made the Football League. They've now been an established League One side for 5 years, moved back to their own new stadium at Plough Lane & are a shining example of the power of fans to affect change.
Been to see them loads (incld when they were still non-league/playoff finals/relegation deciders) & own some tops. Will always be a Ram & when the sides meet, will want Derby to win but got all the time in the world for Wimbledon.

Reggie Greenwood reacted to The Scarlet Pimpernel in 12th Man or start with 10?
It really is becoming a chore to be on here.... I'm obviously addicted as it goes against all my instincts to bother. Each time I log on I hope for a little positivity.. But alas no. Oh well, maybe next time.

I’m an old fogey and thought fantastic when I saw the shirt Roy Mac was wearing then I saw the hotch potch CKR was wearing and heart sank. It’s dreadful , it’s even the wrong shade of blue as well. Big thumbs down from Reggie the Dinosaur

Reggie Greenwood reacted to Leeds Ram in Come on Derby get our season tickets out
It seems a relatively fair and reasonable thing to be doing by the club. It would be very easy to put the season tickets on sale and then be caught in another mess if lockdown or restrictions on large gatherings are put into place again. For instance if we sold 15,000 season tickets but then there was a restriction of 5,000 people gathering at sporting events what would the club do? draw a lottery? allow certain fans to certain games on a rotational basis? Whatever happens you'll have a lot of unhappy supporters that could do a lot of damage to the club's reputation.
Yes, I'd love to purchase a season ticket now and i get people are frustrated but patience is the best course of action. If Covid has taught us anything it should be patience and realising that just because we desperately want something it doesn't mean that we have the right to it. Hopefully, given the increased vaccination programme and the relative safety of outdoor events being conducted it will ensure that we can all be attending Pride Park again regularly.

Reggie Greenwood reacted to SunnyRam in Come on Derby get our season tickets out
Since when has not being able to go to a game if you are a season ticket holder meant you end up in credit? That's not the clubs fault if you can't go.
This is a sensible and cautious approach by the club which also honours those supporters that committed to the 2021/22 season.

Reggie Greenwood reacted to gccrowdpleaser in Come on Derby get our season tickets out
Seems a sensible approach. I see many on twitter and FB are moaning and twisting it to be the club taking the fans for a ride. The sames fans would be moaning if they were being asked to pay out.
Some will see it as a sure sign of a takeover. Some see it as a sure sign of immediate administration. There is also the fact that we may still get a points deduction which I know a number of Wednesday fans complained that they had paid for an ST for a side that was effectively relegated, as they saw it.
My view is that it's a sensible and pragmatic approach to an unprecedented situation. The club has addressed the issue for 20/21 season ticket holders who will get their tickets without paying out. 19/20 but none 20/21 ticket holders get a discounted rate. Everyone else can try and buy on a match by match basis. Seems eminently sensible. Will result in reduced attendances but the costs are probably offset against the burden of managing refunds at that scale which no business wants to do.
I do think some Derby fans will be really disappointed if we get a decent ownership group....what will they have to moaning about then?

True but navy wouldn't have had sufficient contrast with the black.
But I'm with you. I got more excited by the first shirt.
