Beelzebub I thought all you loyal away match types would have snapped them up?


There were acres of seats at Wigan last year. IIRC it was a lowest away crowd of the season.


I reckon we'll bring more this time round now.

Surely it can't be a lower turn-out than at 'boro. (I'll be there for a start)

Derby could be a massive day folks. Get in before the part timers. Good selection of real ale pubs there too. Let the train take the strain.

Or Derby could and is likely to be a horrible day and 90 minutes of taunts.

No thanks. I've wasted enough money on this club this season.

Probably not but expect a late rush (and subsequent moanings) when people start to realise this could be one of the most important games in our history. Ring any bells??!

Really? Do you honestly think that we will need to get a result on the final day to stay up? I hope not, I could think of nothing worse than being there if so

:? :shock: :o

Well, I've ambivalent about whether we go down or stay up, so will enjoy the day whatever happens. The actual football has long been a distant second best to a day out on the shant.

Agreed JStC.

On a slightly different note - I saw something on SSN this morning that Bolton are providing free transport for their supporters to get to the Boro game this weekend. 2 things:

1. Hopefully this will have the same effect as Operation Ewood did for CharLOLton.

2. Will RFC ever do something like this? I know the players gave STAR £5K towards Man City coaches but as far as I can remember that didn't come directly from the club. I'm not holding my breath.

2 things Dirkers:

1. That's not free is it? :roll: :wink: :lol:

2. Is the subsidy coming directly from the STAR coffers as a result of having money left over from this season's coach bookings or has the club actually given some money towards the travel?

I cant believe some people might not be going to derby on here!!
-It could be one of the biggest games of the season
- We might already be safe
- Last match of the season
- good atmosphere
- inflatables day
- we might actually beat this team away because they are bottom!!
- AND celebrations if we stay up!! :D

Expect a rush of tickets if we beat Wigan and/or Spurs. As it stands this game's a nothing game as results for Bolton and/or Fulham mean we're down.

Also, expect 2000 sold 7000 saying they were there when we stayed up.

Can we bring inflatables? That seems to be the main selling point for actually going to the game

SymonsO Yeah I think there is a mention of it under the STAR section.

Bring anythig aslong as it is reasonable size and not offensive!


I think Silver Fox meant to the pub rather than to Pride Park :lol:

You're doing the work of headline-writers for them if any inflatables at Derby lose their air at any point - "Even the inflatables couldn't stay up...."
