Used to have a season ticket from 97-08 and never missed a home game, but very rarely went to away games

Then started work on Saturdays so had to give it up, so I now just go to mostly midweek ones and make more away games, or attempt to make the big ones (Forest, Leeds)

Will hope to get back to a season ticket in time.

I'm 21...

My first game was 1-1 draw at home with Manchester United in 96. I would of been 6 - remember Laursen scoring, after that he was my favourite player for a while.

then, my first season was in 2002-2003, the first year we got relegated and was playing in the championship... and since then been going non-stop, although I did take somewhat of a sabbatical for the 2010-11 season, where I got a little restless with the ambitiousless board, the fans...etc

In my time it's been poor in the history of Derby, but we've had some relatively great moments - play off semi final felt more than a game, the emotions, the occasion... the feelings much, much more than that.

Went to odd games as a kid until I got a season ticket for Christmas the year that Arthur Cox got us promoted from the 3rd division and had one ever since - East Upper now, slightly towards North. Try to do an away game per month (as that's the maximum allowed by my pass!)

Didn't renew our seasons tickets a couple of seasons ago, girls are growing up and going out on their own most saturdays and moaned about having to go, as well as the £1000 outlay for us four. A decision I regret.

When we had a season ticket, we had to go, no hardship but no thought behind it, we just went. Now though, it's different, it has to be planned, it's more of a 'treat' and it has to fit round out lives, rather than our lives fitting round it. The girls are now whistfully asking if they can go to a match 'one day' - like they're asking to go to Alton Towers or summat, but are always doing something else when asked.

So, I listen to Big Bloomers on the radio and go on match chat and obv watch us on the telly. Sometimes, after a Tuesday night match, I do feel a bit smug, just switching off and going to bed, thinking about everyone trudging home.

That said - we're going to Dirty Leeds.....Wooo Hooo 'http://www.dcfcfans.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':D' />

I had a season ticket from 2005-2009

In the promotion season and the prem season i went to pretty much every home and away game.

Then i turned into a young adult where I was torn from watching my football club for financial reasons.

The last 2 games i've been to were watford and forest at home last season. Depressing!!

Listen to every game on the radio though unless i'm at work.

Im 20, first game i can remember was a 2-2 draw against Man Utd. Properly caught the bug around 2004, can recall a lot of games from round then.

Had a season ticket in the SE corner from 16-19 however i knocked that on the head as i currently despise most aspects of Pride Park, now tend to do 3-4 home games and 15 - 20 away games, money permitting.
