SecretDave Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 I always liked Marco Gabbiadini. He always gave his all for Derby. I remember his shirt used to get filthy every match, showing he was properly getting stuck in. We could do with someone like him now.

Mucker1884 Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 I "Got into The Rams" just as we started to tippy toe away from all that "Best team in the land" malarkey, so whilst I had a lot of admiration to "The gang of '75", I didn't see enough of them to make them true (personal) icons. As a right sided full back (only school level and Sunday mornings, I hasten to add),my first poster boy was this fella... My memory is hazy, but ye gads, he was awesome to me!

Curtains Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 This player later on after Geoff Barrowcliffe who incidentally I quoted on my first post which needs correcting regarding mixing up Osmaston End and Normanton End that gives me just as much love is of course is Charlie George.

Dordogne-Ram Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 With @Curtainsre Geoff Barrowcliffe. Rated by many as the best right back in England but overlooked because DCFC were Div.2 at the time. One club man. Sat with him flying back with the team from Toulouse after the Beziers game in the Anglo-French Friendship Cup - a super guy!

jono Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 I’m a real Johnny come lately but Hector and O’Hare have always been Derby county for me along Todd and Roy Mac but that comes as simply a fan of the game and enjoying great players strutting their stuff. my personal memories are much closer to the present day. Seeing Kinky live, a little podgy but making Newcastle’s left back look stupid with a playground trick.Idiakez, so silky and effortless - kind of footballs David Gower. Wardy hitting the ball one way and running the other side .. so simple, and his choir boy look at the ref when he fouled someone. The first time I had my season ticket. Johnny Russell scored and the crowd sung his song. You can forgive mistakes and rough edges when a player really does leave everything on the pitch. I always liked the honesty of Steve Howard. Reading a newspaper article prior to the successful play off final. I forget the journalist .. but I couldn’t help smiling “Steve Howard is an antediluvian striker, a shambling gait and a right foot like a howitzer” Talking of Howitzers .. I reckon Carbonari would match up pretty well to Peter Lorrimer IslandExile 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LE_Ram Posted May 9, 2021 Share Posted May 9, 2021 None of the players - what made me fall in love with DCFC was walking up the stairs from the concourse at PPS as a young lad with my Grandpa, being overawed by the scale and grandeur of it, taking in the atmosphere - then seeing the camaraderie, joy, heartbreak, anger, and all the other emotions played out in 90 minutes of football. Players come and go, good times come and go, but nothing for me comes close to that feeling of getting that first glimpse of the pitch on a Saturday afternoon.
