So what is your guys first memory of Derby County this could be your first match for example.

My first memory is being mascot against Liverpool when I was 7 in 2002 this was the game we got relegated and all the kids at school kept making fun of him for it as I live in southport and they are all glory hunters, but I didn't know what relegation ment and the next season my first match was reading and I asked my dad "since when we these in the prem."

I went to that game, I was 7 I knew we went down as I remember my dad joking about it as it was his birthday present. My first memory was us playing barcelona in the pre season friendly of that season.

Barca in a friendly what was the score if you know

The first time Dav took me to PP - I was awed at the size of the place - I'd only ever been to Oakwell, Bramhall Lane & Hillsborough when I was a kid, so it was a bit of an eye opener to see the stadium. Some people don't like PP but I thought it was great, still do.

It is a great stadium, but maybe the BBG was better but I don't know I was to young to go to the BBG

Dav still raves about the BBG, even now he'll always say there's nothing quite like it.

I started following Derby early 90's only managed to get to the bbg a handful of times per season, was at the palace promotion game, but wasn't really hooked that much till we became established for a few years in the prem. No real great memories at Pride Park yet tbh. Had a season ticket ever since 98/99 season. Was at Old Trafford when Christie scored and we desrevedly beat them to stay up in 2000/01? Thats probably my best memory.

My first memoy, very hazy, was being taken by my father to the Baseball Ground, to see a Derby County Representative Team play during World War Two. I think the side was made up of guest players who were footballers who were in the forces and were based nearby. As I say , it is a very hazy memory.
