Deej-Legend Posted February 27, 2009 Report Share Posted February 27, 2009 I'd've gone if they hadn't changed the KO time to 1pm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUMMAT OUTTA NOWT Posted February 27, 2009 Report Share Posted February 27, 2009 Given the position we could be in if we don,t sell out our allocation for DERBY then there must be something wrong. We have got to get behind the team. We will be there in force. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bris Red Posted February 27, 2009 Report Share Posted February 27, 2009 I'm going with a few mates should be a good one! The stadium is IDENTICAL to the Riverside by the way, its actually really surreal when you are there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The stadium is IDENTICAL to the Riverside by the way, its actually really surreal when you are there. i got tickets for a mate to go to reading as i could not make it, was pretty jealous as what a day it turned out to be. kinda hoping derby will be the same, shame the revised kick off time might put the kybosh on it..

Having been to both grounds (Boro admittedly in the dark of an evening) I can't see that as being true, similar yes but then aren't most all new grounds?

Bloody old bill does anyone know if Forest will be moved as well the only reason they made it an early kick off was the fact swansea are playing forest the same same day in nottingham so are trip to them should still be a 3pm ko well it is as it stands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveF Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 I'm at uni in Derby, Pride Park's a bit of a strange one. Their fans sound like children it's bizzare.. I'm a cert for this game if me and a few mates can get tickets, it should be a cracker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robins72 Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 Ive been there before its a lovely stadium and can be very noisy when the Rams get behind their home team. When I parked there was near a bridge over a busy main road which was about a ten minute walk to the ground. But that was about 4 years ago so things may have changed since then!

Robbored Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 Anyone experience the baseball ground? Yeh - quite a few times. It was ok. Typical of the stadiums of that time. If I remember rightly it had a strange 3 tier stand behind the goal that the Derby fans called the Ossie Kop. Why, I don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
