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. Which was the L**ds game where he took them off the coach before the ground and made us walk in? But yeah the Mac1 4-4 bloody unbelievable!

Jimbo Ram Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 Our win at Spuds in the late 80’s when the Tin Man broke his leg. Loudest away end I have ever been in and what a team we had…. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The big metal loudspeakers which used to hang down from the top of the stand were blowing all over the place. It was mad because they were huge big chunks of metal. People underneath them were moved then one came loose from its cable, falling and destroying multiple seats-smashing them to pieces. If anyone had been sitting underneath they would have been killed instantly. Always stayed with me that one. If we hadn’t been completely crap for years and had a full house people would have died. Tommy Docherty inadvertently helped save the lives of a few people that day. Think it was Shrewsbury. Lashed it down. I was in the Normo end.

Ram a lamb a ding dong Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 Derby 3 Everton 2. Goddard chipped Southall with Bobby Robson watching on.

HorsforthRam Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 Couple of games… the one where Liverpool were on some sort of record run and Mickey Forsyth equalised to make it 1-1 and Liverpool nearly collapsed under the atmosphere; last match for King Kev, scored the winner against a promoted Watford, 3-2 Crewton, MaltRam, Reggie Greenwood and 2 others 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ramsbottom Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 1988 Derby 4-2 Wimbledon: Deano’s debut. Nuff said 1996 Derby - Man Utd 1: Laursen’s stunning free kick. And Igor putting on a clinic, man-marking the reigning FWA player of the season Eric Cantona out of the game. Kung Fu Eric didn’t get a sniff. 2010 Derby 3-0 Preston: The height of that purple patch with Kuqi upfront and Alberto Bueano running riot. Really thought Nigel had finally unlocked the potential that day 2022 Derby 1-0 Oxford: Not a great game, but I’m sure that I wasn’t the only one in the crowd that shed a tear or two from the relief & joy at the fact we still had a football club to support Walkley Ram, Pikeyram, Ramrob and 2 others 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They spent most of the game passing it back to the goalkeeper (who could pick it up in those days kids) leading to much infuriation. Celebrated that goal like a demented banshee. They became terrified of losing the record. If they had just gone for us they would probably have won 4-0. I can still picture that goal to this day. One of my favourite ever in what was effectively a meaningless game for us. HorsforthRam and Crewton 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there was one particular challenge that was pretty…agricultural shall we say … which McMahon rightly got a bit annoyed about. He was always quite happy dishing it out though so did him.
