I will be there but given that more than 2K fans paid to go to Watford then Millwall followed by 2 home games in close order (okay most might be season ticket holders) I would be surprised if we edged much over 2,000 travelling to Derby. It's a long old journey for most.

Fortunately this will be one of my "home" games.

The Liverpool match was a much higher profile game, so fans who wouldn't really go to an away match in the league would of been more tempted to go up to anfield. 1500 at best

I'd have thought having two home games would help, since they would be cheaper days than going away. Last season prior to taking 2,030 to leicester from brighton 167 miles, 3hrs13) we had one away game, prior to taking 2045 to forest (from Brighton 189 mils, 3hrs43) we had one away game. Derby (from Brighton 190 miles, 3hrs37) this year follows two home games.

I really don't think breaking 2,000 will be much of a challenge.

Really enjoyed Derby last season. Not a bad ground for a Lego new style bowl, and of course winning helped.

~2000, the other 4000 at Anfield were the plastics.
What a load of cock....... the tickets were mostly taken by season ticket holders you pleb..... (12-1400 to Derby if we get a reasonable result against Brum, smart ground )

Prem Inn booked for the Friday night; take the sting out of the trip as I am the only driver - around a mile to walk to the ground from there I think.

Dean Saunders used to be my favourite Albion fwd as a kid and when he joined Derby from Oxford I took a small liking to Derby Co and have always kept an eye on them.

Also, a regular bet I have had with a mate for many years is Derby v Leicester (league position when in the same league) - surprisingly close over the years.

Will have to miss this one as its StillHateBellotti Juniors 2nd Birthday and Mrs StillHateBellotti would go f***ing nuts if i went missing!

Tell the kid that he is having a football themed party and you have invited 24 thousand people to it.

Oh and buy some cake.
