You better shout loud
You better get high
You better tell Forest Derby won't die
Santa Clowes is comin' to town
 
 

Great booze up Edmund!
 

Probably were familiar to most there as we’ve been a Mickey Mouse outfit for the last year or so. 

North stand is the future, like garlic bread

Lionel great man knew him when I played cricket for Brailsford and the Yew Tree at Ednaston was owned by him many a night down there him and Jim Smith would be in. Remember a surreal night when Jim Smith, Tosh Lines from The Bill (Kevin Lloyd) and Roy Wood from Wizzard were all in different parts of the pub.

Once this deal is completed,  I think this thread should be kept as a sticky at the top of the forum as a reminder that when, in the future, things arn't going too well,  the outlook could have been far worse.  I think DC will be a good owner and am starting to believe again.
Now get those season tickets on sale.

Firstly, and most importantly, sorry to hear about your grandmother. Sending best wishes to you and your family. 
 
Secondly, I was exactly the same. I believe this whole saga has taken a massive toll on the fan base, possibly more than we’d ever know. Constantly checking on here for updates as well as other social media outlets. False dawns, the lowest of the low points. 
 
I said earlier this year that Derby County should be the source of release for its fans. A happy place where we can go and forget our daily battles and for 90mins on a Saturday afternoon just enjoy watching our team play. Since admin and even more so since the end of the season this hasn’t been the case, infact it has been the polar opposite. The anxiety and stress that we have had to endure through the issues and fear of liquidation on top of any other factors going on has been a nightmare. 
 
One glimmer of light that has come out of this is how the fans have stood shoulder to shoulder with each other and the club, the way this forum has helped members through this whole mess. 
 
I do hope this is rock bottom and we can now move forward and get back to enjoying just been football fans.

I didn't realise how much this was affecting me. I was convinced I wasn't that bothered. I've lost my grandmother last week and have other issues and thought there were more important things in life.
I'm not too ashamed or masculine to admit that after reading those Clowes press release snippets on Twitter, I realised my eyes had welled-up a little and I have let out a massive sigh. I now want to have a celebratory drink and put this nightmare behind me.
I am however realistic enough to know that the football side could well be a struggle for a few years, and I have no expectations, but to know that my home-city club, a club I followed home and away for most of my adult life, a club that I committed thousands of pounds to over the years, a club that has made me laugh, smile, groan and sob, will continue to exist means a lot to me personally.
Cheers boys and girls.

Palace have already taken him!

My IQ is the product of 2 prime numbers.
It is also a prime number higher than a perfect square.
In addition, it is a perfect cube less than a perfect square.
The difference between the perfect square above my IQ and the perfect square below my IQ should make you think of a famous Greek - if you take all three square roots.

He’s one of our own alright.  
He’s being going to away games as a fan as long as I can remember 
He has seen the ups and the downs like all of us .
PS It’s amazing really I mean as a fan you talk to fellow fans and then you find out they are buying the club. 
I had no idea who he was but I knew he was a massive fan. 
 
Like I say I’ve spoke to him about Derby County at away games so I know what the club means to him 

Just a brilliant evening out.
