PrivateDerby Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 Hey come on, this is the first thing people see when they step off the train in Derby... http://i46.tinypic.com/2lub5ti It's only when you walk further along Railway Terrace or London Road and into town you realise what a nice city it is. Be even better if the Westfield was underground! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
operationpig Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 You mean the carpark opposite the stadium....that's been there 5 years....well done, 10 points for observation First of all it was Hillsborough that was a 'dive', then the road passing one side of the stadium is horrible and beyond our control, then she was looking at an empty car park and expecting architecture, hmmmm, maybe she should try Hull next. Hey by the way, the baseball ground was surrounded by houses and in a bad area but I loved the place, been behind the goal when away fans were put there (osmanston road?) and the side terracing next to you lot, happy days. Anyway I have a question, how many rows up is kk? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davenportram Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 awaits 'ladyram' to jump back into the thread and say its the roughest canal shes ever seen! Doubt you'll see that because all she has said, and quite rightly, is that the drag around Hillsborough is a shithole. But it's amazing what good lighting and an airbrush can do to a photograph opportunity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brammie Steve Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 In the same season that Derby were champions, right up to the time they won the league again in the early 70s I had a job which involved visiting the very worst parts of Derby. Balieve me there were real slums and hovels like there are in any city of town (even Burton come to that). I don't think any district is particularly better or worse than anywhere else. Surely even the most biased Rams supporter who loved the BBG in Brian's day could not deny that it was not situated in a visually inspiring area. The fact remains that I loved the ground and the area and got on well with the locals. I don't think we should criticise other parts of the country for being better or worse tan we perceive our own little acre to be. Believe it or not even Birmingham has it's rough areas.

The only thing that bothers me is why the police allow him to do it. I've seen Derby lads thrown out of grounds all over the country for doing far less than him.

The south west would have been the cheap early bird seats, and also hold a few freebie ticket holders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glenowl Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 According to our OS we have been given around 6000 tickets so maybe we do have the SW corner, Should be a cracking opening day anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
