Could it be that along with people and car registration plates they also hide graffiti? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Move down to the other side of the junction, then look back... no blurring, and no graffiti/mural. richinspain 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can also "go back in time" to see older pictures that aren't blurred. There's no mural there at all, in any pics. They blur your house if you contact them and ask for it.

Ken Tram Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 So, it disappeared before Google Street View began! But after the move to Pride Park. It may have said DLF next to it too. The Ram was massive: at least half the width of the house as I remember it. It would be good to find a photo, or the history behind it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to ask one of the heritage guys - they're likely to have it tucked away somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crewton Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 1 hour ago, Leeds Ram said: I have mixed feelings on Warne. He's done well to get us up but let's be honest we were favourites and had in-built advantages. The championship will be a whole different monster and while Warne does have a track record in league 1 he doesn't really have one in the championship. We do need to temper our expectations i think. There's little chance of a tilt at the play offs and survival is the big priority. That might be difficult to take at first... I think the big issue is recruitment. We were a big pull in league 1 but in the championship we are less so and the squad needs significant additions. Who knows if Warne is the man but we should back him until otherwise. 3 hours ago, Mucker1884 said: I asked for a Blur when I lived in a house, a very big house in the country.

Surely @loweman2 or @Quangy haven't got a whole wall from a house near the BBG in their loft?

thischarmingram Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 I read on one of the pages of the organisers of this that they are planning more throughout the city. Would love to see one of cloughie, the fa cup winning team and maybe one of Charlie George and Derby County 4-1 Real Madrid.

Sheffield and Derbyshire is actually the place where football was born; it was those grass-roots amateur clubs that laid the foundation. It’s all evidenced in that brilliant book “Beastly Fury”. The first chapter is a brilliant read all about the actual banning of the game in Derby in the 1840’s when soldiers were drafted in from….you guessed it Snottingham when word got out that an “illegal” game was planned to take place.
