Does anyone remember League 1 Derby County? (STILL the worst team in history!)

The scum are at him again.
FFS! why doesn't somebody defend the poor bugger and stand up to these bullies. I certainly would but I'm unable to post on there.

Interesting take from someone today

Club to be liquidated, Pride Park to be sold for redevelopment, as it is Pride Park is sucking the life out of derby town centre, the land for the new ground will be gifted by derby council somewhere else in derby.
They will start from the very bottom and have to climb up the leagues to get back.

Gonna be awkward when Appleby submits his bid (which is funding by "mystery investors") and the admins say it's not enough, just like they did with his last bid, and the one before that, and before that... you get the picture.

The only bloke willing to put enough cash up was somebody with absolutely no cash.
The EFL may have some issues with money from undislosed sources.

Why is Pride Park sucking the life out of Derby? There’s f*** all there but industrial units, car shops and a Greggs!

No offices ?
I did admit to the person I hadn’t got a clue as I haven’t set foot in derby for more than thirty years

And even then , that was to change trains.

I don't think it's me being bias but I have always found Derby to be a dull place. I have never thought "i'll go to Derby" today despite me living the same distance between Derby and Nottingham city centres.

For me, it really is just like a pound shop version of Nottingham, it does nothing better. Derbyshire is really nice, the city of Derby is a boring dump.

Agree. Peak District is great, the rest of it not so much. Apologies to those living in Derby who are quite fond of it.

I agree. I don't think Derby is the worst city out there, but it is dull and there's nothing that makes it stand out. It doesn't really have anything going for it.

I’ve never been to Derby and as someone who has never lived in the midlands I can assure you I have no plan to. I’d actually say that nobody has uttered the word Derby to me anywhere I have ever lived apart from to say that that’s who they play at the weekend. It’s not even a Hull, which is renowned for being abysmal. Derby is just a nothingness.

They’ve some great smaller live music venues that Nottingham has lost with the dominance of DHP venues, in defence of Derby.

Hairy Dog and The Venue in particular.

What is there to do in Derby other than regret whatever decisions in life lead to you being there?
Leave, on the earliest train to Nottingham.

A good mate of mine‘s band play at the Hairy Dog fairly regularly. It’s an interesting venue.

It’s cracking, especially since they opened up the big space at the back downstairs.

I miss The Maze and Junktion 7 et al in Nottingham.

This is why the planners of Derby (and Stoke for that matter) should be highly commended.

They put a Mahoosive dual carriageway A-road through the town to get you OUT of there at 70mph.

This was deemed necessary once the towns were planned.

My mam used to go on the free bus with her mate to Derby to pass the time along, but when you hit 90 any change of scenery is a bonus.

The Flower Pot is a really good venue.

It used to be OK , I spent a year working there about a million years ago and it was a thriving market town with a fairly eclectic selection of indepenent shops. The indoor market in the market place was always interesting and the art deco bus station shouyld really have been preserved. In my veiw they made a huge mistake when they decided they were a city and not a market town, add to that the construction of a shopping mall which is far too big for the footfall which then proceeded to suck the life out of the rest of the town.
