Navigation has shut down hasn’t it

 

Which pubs good to tear down these days? 

 which pub was it about 12 years ago when we played them away where our fans just went completely berserk and trashed the place, was very civilised for a while and then out of nowhere everyone seemed to go mental. Remember seeing a hand dryer being thrown around it

Would’ve been The Navigation I guess. 

 

Derby flag above the pool table got ripped down, inflatable sheep being tossed around, bar (baaa) got shut down by order of the police

 

Good times

Reminds me of mid 90s watching us play on Sundays round my Grans house.

 

Probably my favourite, I think it was V Millwall, was where one of our players got sent off and I think Jamie Lawrence thought it was him, so he walked off and went to the changing rooms only to be told it wasn’t him.

I remember one Sunday afternoon eating my roast and spitting my Yorkies out at the sight of Spider Kalac throwing the ball in his own net twice v West brom away. Luckily we had ran rings round them in the first half to lead 3-0 and still won. Jimmy Greaves and Ian St. John ITV Sunday's,  Soccer Am on Saturday's and Football Italia on Channel 4, great days.

We will batter them

We lost 2-1not 4-2, 

And I'm not sure we can predict us battering anyone, especially when the games not til December.

ITV got some good choices of games there. 

They're not exclusively on ITV, they're on Sky aswell, it's just good for those who don't have Sky.

ITV rate Derby ahead of Cov in the Leicester rivals debate then?

[Lambert09]

blimey this season has so much potential for national embarrassment. losing to sheffield wednesdays kit men. 
 

derby beating us on itv.

relegation to league 1 after a huge points deduction.

i can’t wait  the fear i had going to school after losing 6-1 to pompy could pale in significance to some of this.

Remember the time Joachim got interview by Newbon(I think it was him).

Hed scored a great goal and Joachim said "the ball was bouncing like fvck"

 

Newbon had to apologise.

One for the elderly among us here. But it seems they won the league at Filbert Street in 1975. Crowd was a remarkable 38000 (christ knows how you could get that many into Filbert Street in what was effectively a two sided ground) 

 

Anyone remember it? Just had a look and it seems our average that season was around 25k. On that basis, Derby must've brought well over 10k 

Yes I went to that game, except I didn't as they locked the gates before I got in. Very few games in those days were all ticket & it was absolute chaos as I recall, not sure how many Derby fans were there but we had a very good side & fans always turned out in big numbers for the big games.

I think it was a 0-0 draw which was enough for Derby. Enough though we had a terrific side, Derby used to beat us every time. Hate them with a passion

It was Neil Lewis who went off and then came back on
