Wistaston Ram

Gary Charles in a 5-0 debut V Sunderland .  Superb.  Season didn't quite pan out as it started that day.

Played 98 minutes after 4 months out with a stress fracture in the foot.  Injured it again after 70 minutes and wasn't taken off, so a point could be proved about squad depth. Unforgiveable Management towards a young player.  Not sure he played again for us.

I’m fairly sure it was Sheff Weds. They put up a banner saying “thanks for no fences”. 

'Top teckers' when a player manages to control a ball or make a good pass is another one.

People who say 'top bins' when the ball hits the top corner of the net. Maybe I'm getting old but it really grates.....

I was in the SW upper, lots of singing around me and we just caught the end of SBW to shout 'Derby'. I'm not a big fan of SBW, but each to their own and I enjoyed the atmosphere again as i have done at all our home games this season.

I enjoyed the fact that we sang over Steve Bloomer's Watching on Saturday, just the slow ponderous beat evident in the background. It was unnecessary to try and create an atmosphere over the tannoy for this game.

I'm not sure where you were in the ground Wistaston but where I was everyone enjoyed it, joined in  and gave it full gusto. It helped to add to the already great atmosphere. Who knows, maybe it even helped motivate the lads to go and get that early lead ?! 

It’s because they hang a bin there during training and the challenge is to get the ball in the bin. You’re right though. However, it’s less annoying than ‘postage stamp’. 

I have fond memories of the Baseball Ground, saw us win the Championship there, but it was of its time. 
I love the views, facilities, ease of access and safety at Pride Park and wouldn't wish us to go back. There have been lots of great days at PP, and there will be lots more.

I sat in the Brian Clough stand when Trevor Hebberd got a late equiliser, fortunately I was not the only Derby fan who leapt to their feet! Had to keep myhead down exiting at the end.

Quite relieved as I thought this was going to be a points deduction thread. Agree that the performances have been so much better than expected, but we have got exactly what we have deserved so far, points wise.

Brilliant for Whisky ?.  It would be a long walk to Hampden though....... 
For Scotland/ Aberdeen games in Glasgow I stay in the Ibis Styles on Waterloo Street, relatively new hotel which is handy for Central station. The Rhoderick Dhu and Admiral bar are good pubs nearby.
