bcnram Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 From where they started the season with that terrible run, to get promoted is a remarkable season for them. Fully deserved and playing decent football. rockabilly and Rambervalley 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BaaLocks Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 Genuinely not that fussed - I can assure you we will have more fun as fans next season. That said, I don't live in the area so I won't have to put up with all the constant crowing but still it's just not a big issue for me in light of everything else that is going on. What I found amusing was how on 5Live, with about three minutes of the game to go, all they could go on about was how hard this was going to be for Derby fans, how we were now in League One. It was like "this is your greatest moment in quarter of a century and still the only thing that people relate to is the impact it has on your neighbours". Very strange!

Feel the same, in fact I am quite surprised at how OK I'm with it, maybe it's because we wouldn't be playing them next season whatever the result yesterday.

GenBr Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 12 hours ago, Crewton said: Forest's improved attendances since Marinakis took over are mainly down to them making season tickets for the under 23s as cheap as chips, which is a good policy when you've got 6,000 empty seats. They got a further boost of a couple of thousand after Cooper took over and turned them around. Well done them, but it's hardly unheard of. Our sub-20K attendances were entirely due to the ticketing restrictions we had at the start of the season. I'm surprised you didn't mention that? Then, when we finally got the ticketing system working, we went into Administration and relegation was all but confirmed, even before the further -9 points were agreed. Yet, attendances continued to rise modestly and never fell back. If you know of any other teams whose attendances actually increased in our circumstances, I might concede you have a point? I know you guys are desperate not to admit Forest have had better support in recent years, but this is just sad. Our attendances have been down for years now - are you going to blame the ticketing problems for that as well ?. Now that we actually report factual figures for our attendances rather than make it up like we did under goatee man we canactually see where we stand. We can follow Forests example you know. If they've fpund a way to fill their stadium then we should do the same. Most of our games had more than 6000 empty seats this season. Not sure why you are you trying to argue that our attendances are down because weve been crap either. It doesnt change the fact that our attendances have been much lower than Forests. rockabilly, Red_Dawn and alram 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For 17 years out of the last 20 Derby have had bigger average attendances than the gumps. Not that it really matters, it’s just a small fact to throw in there!

We had 21-22,000 ST holders until the pandemic, so the attendances (if at all) can't have been significantly inflated. Our annual match day revenue has been higher than Forest's for the last two decades. I'm not sure why you're so keen to trumpet the higher attendances Forest have enjoyed since 2018, but I can probably take a wild stab in the dark..... ?

Gritstone Ram Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 I am sure things will calm down when they lose 5 in a row. They’ve played ok for 6 months out of the last 25 years. Rammy03 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premier ram Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 One worrying thing for Forest is how do they replace that Jon Moss , thought he was their man of the match by a mile yesterday , sadly for them hes retiring , its going to take some serious money to replace such an influential member of the team Crewton, Dordogne-Ram and scout's dad 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll probably average over 29,000 next season, regardless of results, which they haven't achieved since 1978/79, despite having "a worldwide fanbase of millions". Maybe one of their fans who post on here could explain this apparent anomaly? Rammy03 and BPV 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malagaram Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 10 hours ago, Gritstone Ram said: Still not sure whether VAR was used today and if it was, who was making the decisions? I’m sure there was two clear cut penalties. All I can say is if Derby played Huddersfield then Huddersfield would have had a penalty. Agree Entirely,there was two clear cut penalties to the Terriers,something should be done,so it never ever happens again in a game as important as this.!!!
