Crewton Posted May 1 Share Posted May 1 The victory over Stoke in the first game after we were put into administration was stupendous. The roar that greeted the final whistle was a deafening explosion of pure defiance. uttoxram75, Leeds Ram, Amberram and 2 others 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember going to Goodison for a cup match Everton v Derby long before I became a Rams fan and was amazed by the noise made by the visiting fans. Was that 1968 after we had beaten Chelsea in the previous round? 0-0 and we beat them 1-0 back at the BBG I remember they gave us bean bag type cushions to sit on and we all threw them on to the Everton pitch at the end of the game. I remember Dave Mackay taking one of their players out with a shove of his chest. I think it was either Kendall or Royle but not sure. How Dave wasn't sent off I don't know lol Edited May 1 by oldtimeram Crewton 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JPRamFan Posted May 1 Share Posted May 1 Accrington Stanley away last season. 3-0 Osula masterclass, but he should have scored 4/5 goals. Sean 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kickstarted his second coming, which many hoped for but few expected. I think that also kickstarted something else though. Just a few beers right?

North East Ram Posted May 1 Share Posted May 1 Derby 2 Shef Utd 1 13 September 2008 About 3 days from being the only team to not win for a whole year. No wonder we appreciate the (relatively) good times. Green and Hulse scored btw. Oh, the relief!! DarkFruitsRam7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkFruitsRam7 Posted May 1 Author Share Posted May 1 Barnsley away in December under Rowett. Perfect away performance in the middle of a rise up the league table. Topped off with a chorus of White Christmas from a packed-out away end. Lovely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I seem to recall that Alan Durban scored a couple, but it was a long time ago so my memory perhaps can't be trusted too much.

DarkFruitsRam7 Posted May 2 Author Share Posted May 2 (edited) The Rowett team’s play off home leg win against Fulham. Was a proper atmosphere under the lights, and a big result. Curtis Davies an absolute rock that night. Pocketed Mitrovic. Edited May 2 by DarkFruitsRam7 Animal is a Ram, HorsforthRam and angieram 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a team that would have been - we'd haave plyed everybody like the last 20 minutes of that Southampton game! But we didn't have the pennies! Mac leaving did not help but good shout on that 4-0 result. Another one was 4-1 v Forest in 79 when they were Euro holders. For some reason Match of the Day had the highlights and it was not part of the matches advertised as being covered (just 2 in those days).

loughboroughRAM Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 Surprised that the 4-4 vs Ipswich at home just after Clough got sacked hasn't been mentioned. Even before Mac's HT intervention I remember my dad saying that he thought we were still in it. Slightly further back - Newcastle at home 2009/10. They were on a 15 game unbeaten run and ended the season with 102(!!) points, whilst we were looking nervously over our shoulder at the other end of the table at the time.

One thing about Clough is you knew he’d get us right up for games like that Newcastle one. See also the voodoo we had over Forest and Leeds at the time. Remember a 2-1 win away at Leeds when Bucko scored a last minute winner. Think we had a penalty which Sammon took for some reason and he even managed to mishit that, but Coutts scored the rebound. Think there was another away win there which I’m certain was in the league but for some reason was live on BBC, in the Bueno season, but before he’d arrived. Possibly the first game of the season.
