Thanks for posting that Saul. It was my first ever game too and I glad that the subsequent 46 years of failure are not all down to me!!

I'll put out a rallying call dabber. 

Was this anyone else's first game? 

I think myself and dabber could still do with sharing the burden a little further. We both already feel better knowing we are not the sole culprits.

If anyone could lighten our mental load it would be highly appreciated.

24 years ago yesterday.

One of my favourite all time games. Wednesday 2 Derby 5 at Hillsborough.

8 of us sat in the main stand ( friends and my 2 sons ). Got a little uncomfortable near the end as my sons would not stop jumping up and down when we scored. Followed up a few days later by putting 4 past Southampton at Pride Park.

Happy days!!!

I was there. Particularly sweet because I worked in Sheffield at the time.

Missed the first Wednesday goal because of the queues of Derby fans to get in.

Didn't DeCanio grab a teammate by the throat? And Nigel Clough played for them.

But Wanchope, Baiano, Eranio and....Deon Burton were on fire.

Yeah, happy days ?

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!  ?

  

 

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...
