The 3rd round was special, Listening on the radio to see who we got...yes a home draw...that'll do nicely, Now it's just another game sadly, 26000 there when we played them in the league, It seems those who are not going are in the majority...including myself, I've stopped dancing to the TVs tune.

I saw Altrincham vs Halifax on Boxing Day and would on balance watch another non league game for the same admission price rather than that fixture. When Mickleover Sports are playing and the Rams are not I go to watch them. I pay £8 to watch them. I have only paid £6 for the Barnsley game. Secondly, I am a Derby County supporter and I would never consider going to watch another game if I could watch the Rams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crewton Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 I'm going, as are most of the regular attenders I know, but I absolutely hate the timing of it. I just hope the club are getting something extra for us all being messed around. SKRam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foreveram Posted January 3, 2023 Author Share Posted January 3, 2023 I think they might have to open up some more areas. Only 1,740 tickets left, 579 of them in the east stand, the rest in the South stand. Over 800 tickets sold today. Don’t miss out.

Foreveram Posted January 4, 2023 Author Share Posted January 4, 2023 Regarding the debate about standing or sitting at football matches, I know most of it is centred around away games but looking at the tickets sold against Barnsley, if you accept that generally people in the South stand want to stand and people in the East stand want to sit, given a clear choice with the same price structure and tickets available for both, this is the result South stand tickets sold 1,973 East stand tickets sold 4,552 angieram and Ram@Lincoln 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Tibbs Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 It'd be more about the view for me rather than sitting/standing. I've made my way around Pride Park from the East to SE, South Stand to now SW Corner. As much as I liked the South Stand you can't beat a better view. archram and CBRammette 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Near enough to hear/join in South Stand but can see. Wistaston Ram and S75 Ram 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wistaston Ram Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 After initially saying I wouldn't go because of the ridiculous kick off time, I've just bought a ticket. Would hate to miss a game in our unbeaten run and looking forward to seeing the match from another angle.

Don't understand the approach to the FA cup staggering KO times - unless it's because they're using VAR and they don't have the capacity to monitor every game.

ossieram Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 How many people who are calling it a pointless competition or complaining about the time of the match will be begging for tickets if we draw either Manchester team in the next round? jimtastic56, angieram, NG2Ram and 2 others 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The kick off time doesn’t bother me at all. Neither does the fact it’s a Sunday (although I do think part of the reason the FA Cup has lost some of it’s magic is because of all the staggered kick off times). I don’t normally do home cup matches but I will be there on Sunday as Barnsley are my wife’s home town. I doubt I’d go if we drew either Manchester team at home.

jono Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 Left it a bit late getting my ticket so I’m nearer the gods than usual. Can’t wait. We can do this ?. One game closer.

Guest Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 Can’t understand the KO time, but we (lad, dad and I) have our tickets in the East stand, from our normal ones in the North. Should be a decent game, and it would be nice to progress and get one of the big boys, or even the Gumps… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
