Not to drag this out... I missed the Hector goal and never forgave her! Also funny thing , when she felt ill not one of her group of friends offered to help her, and in countless games since she has never been ill again.
I can't shake the feeling I was set up although she has always denied it!! Mind you the 52 years since have been good with her. 
Just one thing someone please describe the King Kev goal to me....

That was my first ever Rams 1st team game sat in the Ley Stand with my Dad who got tickets from his mate who couldn’t make it. Goals from King Kev and John Fitzpatrick OG. 

4/October 1969 Derby v Man U We won 2-0 Programme 1 shilling (5p, kiddies). In a packed popside (think it was called that then) a young girl near me felt faint so I helped her out to the back of the stand.
Beginning of the end--we've been married 45 years now.

Was in the Ossie upper for that one 

29/9/1923, Bristol City 0 Derby 8.

The one season in the last 20 in the PL so just one PL win in the last 20 seasons.
A potential buyer though would be planning and expecting Derby back in the PL sometime, and there to stay. But will take a while...

29/09/2007: 
9.09% of our total points were earned on this day... A 1-1 draw at home to Bolton.
Points-wise, we were level with Bolton and Spurs after that, on 5 each. 
Still a whopping 6 more glorious points to celebrate, before the season is out!  ?

Let's hope we don't join them.

First away match my Dad took me

This happened to my local club Oxford United. The former owner of the club Firoz Kassam sold the club but kept hold of the stadium and all the revenue generated from the sales of food, drink, non football events etc. This has such a detrimental effect on the clubs finances they have been seeking a new location to build a ground for years. 
The ground must be brought back into club ownership if we are to prosper post-Morris.

I’m 99.99% sure Mel hasn’t put £80m cash in to buy the stadium. 
 
Also the stadium is now only worth what a willing buyer is prepared to pay. 
 
Yes it might have been valued at £80m but I surely no one would be prepared to pay even half of that for it now?

Warning: Younger readers may wish to ask their parents what this visual gag is about.

Do Derby own Moor Farm?
I thought it was rented from the council for like 100 years? 
Is that old news?
I'm sure he said that at a breakfast tour?

Derby best at Sheffield United 4-0 in 1972.

Won more than we’ve lost.

Hopefully we reach the 5000th game! 

Derby County all time League record, incl Derby 2 Stoke 1, 18/9/2021.
P 4954, W 1916, D 1212, L 1826, F 7530, A 7242.

Current all time League record 1888-2021.
P 4932, W 1913, D 1205, L 1814, F 7513, A 7210.

Apparently Reading could be getting a big points deduction as well. All we need are another two clubs to follow suit and we have chance of staying up.

Turn this round to the prospective buyer, assuming there might be one.
The training ground was always leased by DC I believe, that could continue.
PP was owned by DC at one time, seems not now. As buyer would want freehold of PP in any deal, otherwise no deal. Absolutely no deal without the stadium included, even if that takes longer to achieve. Separating the club from the stadium is an extremely bad move that I would simply not accept.

14/9/1889, Derby 3 WBA 1, same again please...
