We all got Fan ID’s when we moved to PPS. A few years after 100 was added to the front of the original ID’s we were given.

I know, but i hadnt got a mobile then and they still havnt got my mobile number  because im still on a landline as well.

The "need to give it to them" is possibly apparent now, seeing as it looks like they've not only stopped calling, but also stopped sending out the bumpf in the post.  

Stop being so stubborn, and get with it, girlfriend!  😁

Get too much rubbish on e mail as it is, dont bother opening most of it. Always go to ticket office for my tickets( although i know thats not possible for a lot of fans) love talking to the other fans while waiting. No face to face contact with other people when everything done over the internet, suppose im just old fashioned, but i love chatting.🤣😂

You haven't got a fan ID then or they will have an email address for you. The system cannot work without one. 

Does it go to a relative?

I can't believe you aren't able to create an email identity if you're tech savvy enough to register on here with all David's hoops and whistles! 😂

 They didnt bother with fan ID when i first got my season ticket and when we moved to Pride Park. They have got all  my details other than that, never really felt the need to give it them. Used to contact us by phone years ago, especially if you were late renewing, asking why not renewing🤣

If we go up on the last game I'm on the pitch - I don't believe it's beyond the army of stewards they employ all year for no apparent reason to usher the players off safely - not that I think that would be needed. 

And all the kids waiting in the stands to see their team to walk round the pitch, do they not count?

Just looked on website and says all season ticket holders will be contacted by the club about discounts etc. Does not mention only by e mail. There must be a lot of older fans without e mail, dosnt bother me cause i look on the website but some dont.

There's nothing at all on the website about sending out postal packs.

It says current season ticket holders will be contacted by email. Every fan ID has to have a current email address. 

So why do people think they're going to get a postal pack? 

Genuine question. 

Knew when the last day for sales was and i go to the ticket office, but not till the last week. Never have renewed till the last week, like to keep hold of my money as long as i can🤣

Same for me in the early 1970's, in the ground before 1:30 (otherwise you wouldn't be able to see), my god it was boring as a 10 year-old waiting until KO.

The good thing about all seater stadiums  is that you dont have to get there early after carrying the kids milk crates down cambridge street.🤣

Derby-born, Hampshire-raised Pompey fan here, still feeling a bit groggy after our promotion celebrations last night but hoping the Rams will be joining us in the Championship next season.

We came to Derby quite regularly to see my family when I was young and were fortunate to go to the Baseball Ground many times in the late 1960s and 1970s in the Clough and Mackay years.

I was on the Popside in 1975 against Carlisle when the second title was celebrated, there when Roger Davies got sent off against Juventus in the European Cup semi-final, at the 4-4 drew with Man United on Boxing Day 1970.

But the most vivid memories are of the home wins over Liverpool and, particularly the Easter Saturday 2-0 win over Leeds in that 1971-72 season. Men with Pack’Em In boards urging people to move forward to let more into the ground, a guy who walked around the ground with a bell before the match to gee up the crowd and another with dozens of rosettes inside his coat doing the same. “Programmes, get your programmes”, Hot Love blasting out over the PA system at the end of games, incessant shouts of “Derby, Derby” urging the team on. 

Against Leeds Alan Durban came over to our section of the paddock beneath the main stand to take a throw in, grinning all over his face with a two goal lead and not long to go. Everyone around us screamed at him to take the smile off his face and concentrate; the game wasn’t won yet.

Hector, Hinton, O’Hare, the magnificent McFarland and Todd (jumpers for goalposts). My first game was a 4-0 win over QPR in Feb 1968, seen from the seats in the upper Normanton End, my second a 3-2 victory over Middlesbrough on Boxing Day 1968. I stood on a milk crate at the front of the middle tier of the Osmaston End.

One traumatic memory is the sight of Bob Wilson standing there in just his jock strap after ripping his shorts playing for Arsenal at the Baseball Ground. After that Easter Saturday victory over Leeds in 1972 I seem to remember watching Derby lose at home to Newcastle on the Easter Monday and thinking they had thrown it away.

But then came that win over Liverpool and Leeds tripping up. My Dad, who grew up reciting the names of the 1946 Cup winning team, had new heroes. And so did we, until living our lives in another part of the country meant going much more regularly to Fratton Park (or The Dell in my brother’s case, sadly).

But we still look out for Derby. We took my Dad to the Charlton game at Pride Park last season and I’ve been to see Pompey this season and before.

Wishing you every success and the hope that you all will have similar fond memories of Pride Park.

 

 

Had forgotten about the man ringing the bell. Also a man used to walk round the ground selling crisps etc used to throw him the money a d he threw your crisps back😂

Well yes, how much I love Derby County. Any other points you are getting confused on are things like what I think about a player, or the manager or a style of play. They are different things you see. Is that plainer for you? I've only been a Rams fan for over 55 years so I know how fans can see things differently.

Serious question, what was your first match you attended. Everyone remembers , mine seems like yesterday, wished it was.🐏.

Perhaps someone could start a celebratory thread for Warney I'd leave you to it. 😉

Hope you arnt classing me as a troll.🤣

Yes I can. However I do tend to stick to comments about the football/players/manager, that's the difference.

Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit regarding anyone.

Ive been a fan for over 55 years, but i think you can be a touch sarcastic at times.

Its popular and in high demand because its cheaper and people can stand if they like, if anything they should be lowering the east stand prices inline with the south stand! 🤷🏻‍♂️

Im in the north east corner and when pp opened they were the cheapest seats in the stadium. Dont know why that changed really.

I wasn't sure either,his style wasn't one I particularly fancied although It was clearly effective.

However,Rosenior and his inexperienced was even further down my list.

I've warmed to warm over time,his football is certainly pragmatic but has proved to be effective and he has made a disparate set of players into a close team as well as bringing the rest of the club together which I can't help but admire.

In hindsight he was the perfect choice for clowes rebuilding not just the team but the club and I'm with him on that.

I have supported him this season, because ive been going to long not to support the team and ive seen worse managers here, but if we go up it will be intersting to see how we go on. I personally would have liked a younger manager, but we are where we are. I will be really dissapointed if we dont go up. No beef with clowes though he saved our club and we should all be eternally grateful we can still attend games at pride park🤞🤞

So manager of the month twice in one season,second in the league,best goal difference,fantastic home and away crowds every single week...and yet,the usual suspects think that clowes will sack him 😂

I do wonder just how many of them actually go to games or even watch the on TV rather than just reading the scores at the end of every match and making "decisions" based on that or their sycophants on here.

Clowes wont sack him, and if we go up he deserves a chance at least and i am not a fan of his football. Was not my choice when appointed but as i say if we go up  he deserves his chance, but if we dont im not sure where i stand.

Cashin was pushed head-long into the goalkeeper and could be seen sitting looking dazed while the melee around Bradley was going on. You surely noticed all that though, since you were watching on RamsTV.

Watching a game on telly is never the same as being there, they have got slow motion and replaying incidents over again and different angles. At the match you see the incident once and that's it, that's why I would rather be  at the game if possible. By the way my husband is an armchair fan and me, season ticket holder and his remarks when I get home you would think we were watching different games🤣

So it wasn't a foul just before they scored? I must have been watching a different game. My apologies 

He did let a hand ball go, if given he was off and a penalty given
