Mucker1884 Posted March 6, 2021 Author Share Posted March 6, 2021 The day before Derby beat WBA in the Play Off Final, plucky Yeovil Town were beaten by Blackpool, but apart from the result, I hear their fans had an absolutely fantastic day out, and are rightly proud of the fact that have actually been to The New Wembley.

MuespachRam Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 Just heard guardian football weekly podcast with a great fact. Ipswich have now had more managers called Paul than any other league team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wazztie16 Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 Was trying to find a fact I saw on twitter last season I believe, but came across these from last season... With their 3-0 win against Aston Villa, Man Utd became the first team in Premier League history to win four consecutive matches by a margin of 3+ goals. They also became the first team to win a Premier League game on all seven days of the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derby8 Posted March 7, 2021 Share Posted March 7, 2021 Given the connection with Derbyshire cricket the original proposed name for Derby County was Derbyshire County but the Derbyshire FA objected so Derby County it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just sayin' I can confirm that as a fact. I was in London the night before our play off final victory at the new Wembley (incidentally, a place our local rivals, Notts forest, have never played at). We met some Yeovil supporters in a pub near Euston Station drowning their sorrows and brought them drinks and had a jolly good sing song with them. My second team to this day.

I'm a little upset that you felt the need to mention that bit in bold... it's almost as if the whole point of my post about plucky little Yeovil was missed! ??

Ghost of Clough Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 Derby's first league game of the 1894/95 season was a game of three 45 minutes 'halves'. The ref was late but the game kicked off anyway. When he turned up at half time, he offered to restart the game (we were losing 3-0). Two more halves of football were played.

David Posted March 8, 2021 Share Posted March 8, 2021 It’s been 6 years since Billy Davies was last in football management. The season we went up, Preston, the team he wished he went up with finished just outside the top 6, he was sacked 6 months after the play off final. 6 million was wasted on Miller and Earnshaw which saw him land a job managing a club who’s fans have 6 fingers on each hand.

They sent off the original half-time score of 3-0. Thankfully, they didn't have to issue a correction as we conceded 3 in the 2nd first half as well.
