I believe we were the first to have seats that spell out club related things as well with the Exec stand.

This is them being petty more than any sort of trial. We knew they would

They aren't being petty Jack, they are moving away fans permanently from behind the goal

Not only the worst team in PL history but also the worst team in FA Cup history

In 1903 Bury defeated Derby County 6-0, in what is still the highest score in an FA Cup final.

They just happened to pick the game against us for the trial. Which sounds like a one off this season

They only got to the final because all others teams players were busy fighting a war & so had pulled out.

Bury just managed to cobble together a ladies team to compete in the final

They will hark on about giving us 2700. You'll see.

Makes them look daft that they trialing it for one game and it is against us. Where as we have done it for the whole season and it is the same for every visiting club.

Welcome back G42 - missed you

They are just petty and they epitomise the jealous persona by trying to copy all the ideas of their hero and then trying to make out as if it was their own.

Also how is it going for you, in your red kit?!

The announcement mentions " a maximum of 2,700" so I'm not entirely convinced you'll be getting that many just yet, Webbo; it may be that the extra security required for this fixture sees your allocation brought down to around about 2k

I saw your guy on TV this morning. I'm sure he mentioned that we would be getting 2700. Maybe I misheard him?

However, I would not blame you if you gave 2002 as no doubt you don't want us to gain anything from it

Red Kit

Can't see any stars above the club badge though.

How are Deby's efforts to emulate us on this front going?

The article on our website states up to a maximum of 2,700; if they're not reducing the maximum for the Forest match, then it's not really a maximum so much as an actual allocation.

I assume they'll be giving you a sliver of the ground between aisles and that they'll take columns of seats out of that allocation to have an increased presence from Five-Oh for the big matches, hence my thinking they'll not go to 2700 for you.

Frankly, I hope they DO give you a decent amount as there's always a better atmosphere when there's back-and-forth between the fans.. if you leave any one set of fans uncontested then the atmosphere inevitably suffers, as I'm sure you find at home when the away support is minimal.

No... I sit just to the side and above the away fans at our place and there is still plenty of banter

Watch EMT at lunchtime or tonight. I'm sure they'll be repeating the interview.

Webbo:
"(2700 is a good allocation though for the famous team)"

270 is a good allocation for the sheep.

I wonder if next season we can adjust things a little so that a couple of the lower BC blocks could be allocated to those with bigger away followings. The sterile area we always seem to leave there always looks fairly large

Goal nets and a crossbar were also first used officially at the Forest ground.

A referees whistle was first used in a Forest game for signalling a stoppage

first team to go 42 games unbeaten....It was then regarded as a full season unbeaten.

I appreciate staying on 11 points was much harder though

First European Cup Winning Club to fall so far down their domestic league

First team to have rival fans who are more interested in us than their own club

SHH:

did you actually read the article at all? The article on the Forest board, by a Forest fan, commented on by Forest fans, listing things that Derby County have done/are doing?

posted on 23/1/14

Which all relate to Forest

posted on 23/1/14

There's five instances of "they" used in the article, Hobbs; it's about us as much as it is you.

posted on 23/1/14

It's pointing out how you like to follow the mighty reds, it's a Forest related article on the Forest boards that also relates to Derby. It's not like it isn't related to the team we support, which you do get regularly with some articles from Derby fans.

Just seem a fairly odd thing for you to be pulling up 666
