    If you thought that was a tough watch, you should have been at the County Ground watching Leicestershire giving a proper mauling to Derbyshire with both bat and ball, AND having to read the negative stuff in this thread.

    I've only been in the 'home' end once in 57 years of going to away games - and that was at Highbury (The North Bank).
    It was our first time visiting the ground (1969/70) and we asked Dibble which end the North Bank was, planning to go to the other end.
    "Cheers" we said, promptly walking in the opposite direction and, yep, we ended up on the North Bank.  Of course, the scuffer thought we really wanted to try to 'take their end' (all 6 of us) so pointed out the other end.
    Once inside, it took us all of 10 seconds to realise our little faux-pas (the 3,000 or so Gooners might have been some sort of a clue), and about 15 seconds to leap over the wall at the front, run the entire length of the pitch and make the sanctuary of the 'Scoreboard End'.

    We deserve automatic promotion. It’s been a tough watch at times, but defensively we have been superb and the individual quality has seen us through.
    We will beat Carlisle and the manager and players will deserve the plaudits for a job well done.

    Well, I'm back after managing to watch the whole game in with the home fans, unlike many who were 'spotted' by the stewards and ejected from the ground. 
    I thought that I'd blown it when NML scored, by throwing my arms in the air and very briefly jumping up and down. 
    The six of us decided at half time to split up and it was every man for himself. Not much happened in the second half to give us away.
    At least we were able to group together after the final whistle and join in the bounce.

    Well done Rams, looks like the top-of-the L1 table will be an inverted version of the D2 one from 86/87.  I'm sure most of us on either side would have gladly taken that at the start of the season.  Enjoy your evenings!

    We don't need anything from any other, side, and that's how it's been for weeks bar a single blip matched by the other promotion candidates having their own wobbles.

    Love how after we've just won that people are already working out what we'd have to do to not go up! Blimey - talk about glass half full.  We get at least a point and we're up (and we're playing Carlisle ffs). Let's focus on that?  Not suggesting it will be a walkover, but I reckon if you said a few weeks ago that all we'd need to do is draw at home on the last day of the season against the bottom club, we'd be OK with that.

    It is an utter disgrace, but not unexpected given the cosy relationship between the FA and the Premier League.
    If they can do this, then there is nothing to stop them severing the relationship between the FA and the EFL - and the next logical step being the establishment of a 'closed shop' Premier League with no promotion and relegation.

    What it prevents is a 'lap of honour', which is the way the players show their appreciation.
    When we lost at Hull, one of their 'fans' lamped Keogh, so I can understand the club being anti-pitch invasion.
