At the Mem from 12-1 and from 5-7 in the Thatchers.
Going to be a big crowd today, so a good reason to get there early.
As a reminder, the programmes usually sell out by 2.15-2.30 so if you want to make sure you get your copy go to the bar first!
Many of Derby's fans will never have been to the Mem before so they may get a programme as a memento.
A big crowd should see a bigger 50/50. If you do get there early, don't forget to buy a ticket. Could set up you up for the gee gees at Cheltenham!

With the talk of the high percentages the traders get from the fan zone on other threads, presumably profits from the Thatchers bars all go to Rovers?
Better than the £0.00 the club makes from the Welly.

Better than the £0.00 the club makes from the Welly. Or any other business on Gloucester Road! The Welly appears to live in your head. At the end of the day there is nowhere near enough indoor hospitality areas at the Mem, let alone get a seat in one to enjoy a drink sat down. The two bars in the clubhouse are overcrowded at best and if you look at the crowds drinking in the fan zone you will realise those drinking at the Welly are merely a drop in the ocean to those at the Mem. A cursory look at the concourse under the new stand yesterday would have shown you a temporary bar made up of a couple of small tables and one picnic bench for those who fancied sitting down to drink their pint or eat a burger/ pasty. Provide fit for purpose facilities, fully trained staff who know what they are there for and food and drink at reasonable prices and then and only then will you take trade away from the local pubs/cafes, takeaways etc. Oh and I almost forgot to say, we even saw the return of half a dozen thunder boxes against the back wall of the south west stand. For those not familiar with thunder boxes, think builders portaloos! |
