 Our resident scribe Chris Smith returns to the days when a Derby game meant something a little more glamorous than a trip down the road to Sincil Bank.
I can’t believe those nice folks at the Supporter’s Trust are really interested in reading my deluded ramblings but I’ve been asked to reminisce about the good old days when we lost regularly (no change there then) but to a better quality of opposition. Only jesting. In fact, there are a number of teams who are in or have recently been in the Premiership who Town turned over on a regular basis. Or beat sometimes. As I write this, Town are on a Derbyesque (last season) run of league form and I therefore thought I’d try and unscramble the grey matter and see what I can remember through the haze about our encounters with said team. |

 When the stress of watching Town became too great last season, Chris Smith turned to non-league football and nostalgia to restore his sanity.
I’m not a betting man. I’m an “I was actually going to back that big winner, look I even wrote the betting slip out...” man. |

The Trust is proud to have done its bit, by providing the sponsorship, which enabled the team to stay overnight prior to the final. |

Whilst many of us have joked about the Mariners driving us to drink, for GTST wordsmith Chris the combination of football and alcohol has been far from a laughing matter. For those of you who read my last piece about QPR, I touched briefly upon how I felt that following Town on the road had played a prominent part in my subsequent demons.
