“We're closing in on the 𝟕𝟎𝟎 mark for tomorrow, with tickets going off sale at 3PM this afternoon.
Due to selling out our initial allocation, any tickets bought today will be available for collection at Pride Park ”

Over 700 in the end.
I really liked the rail seating. No coincidence that the atmosphere was much better with 90% of us standing. Cramming us in also helped that. Although, I did not like the fact that there were only two, narrow stairways to enter/exit the away standing section. It felt uncomfortable, almost dangerous, at halftime and the final whistle. I'm struggling to understand how that arrangement met safety standards. Beggars belief for a relatively modern stadium.

We are established league club now surely. I would say a "big" club is one that traditionally is playing in the top two divisions so Derby would clearly be in that category.
