    I was playing football on the street just over a mile away from the Baseball Ground when the replay was on and heard the noise when the winning goal was scored, as I had when we beat Chelsea 3-1 in the previous round.

    1973.  Benfica away....0-0.  Fantastic day in the pubs of Lisbon in the sun.  The game was memorable because the floodlights went out and I was hoping it would get called off so I could come back again the following week lol

    Was that 1968 after we had beaten Chelsea in the previous round?
    0-0 and we beat them 1-0 back at the BBG
    I remember they gave us bean bag type cushions to sit on and we all threw them on to the Everton pitch at the end of the game.
    I remember Dave Mackay taking one of their players out with a shove of his chest.  I think it was either Kendall or Royle but not sure.
    How Dave wasn't sent off I don't know lol

    October 21 1961.  Derby 2 Liverpool 0.   Mick Hopkinson from 60 yards !! (well it seemed like it from the 'boys' enclosure !!) and Bill Curry. 27000+ at the BBG. Ron Yeats putting Bill Curry into the railings in frustration.
    September 24th 1966.  Derby 4 Huddersfield 3  Kevin Hectors home debut. Boy was that some debut !! Despite having 4 opposition trying to mark him he still managed to score and created the space for Durban to score 3. Little did we know then what the next 10 years would hold !!
    November 1st 1969.  Derby 4 Liverpool 0. Can still see Hector and O'Hare bearing down on Lawrence in goal at the Ossie End for the fourth goal. 40993 at the BBG.
    January 23rd 1971.  Derby 2 Wolves 1.  FA Cup 4th round. 40000+ at the BBG. 6" of mud and John O'Hare chesting in, in the 90th minute !!
    Need I go on. Oh those memories.

    As has already been mentioned.  My favourite ever game was against Chelsea in the League Cup in 1968.
    The ground was rocking that night with the noise.
