It ticks off the last of the Championship grounds for my Wife.
By Car. It was very easy as we used this site to find parking.
We went to Frankie & Benny’s on Pride Park.
Worst Bovril in the Football league.
Tickets were EM-U Row C. The problem was the massive score board made you lose sight of the ball as advertising boards are mostly white very difficult to see , and also the angle of the floodlight didn’t help.
Great atmosphere, though Derby needed a drum in their end.
Didn’t really chat to any.
Was expecting a nightmare but in general no worse than anywhere else
Very good Value at 24 quid for the ticket.
Yes if it ticks off a ground for you.
We decided to go to this game because it one of our closer games (4hours)! Also it is a new stadium for me which I wanted to tick off especially with it holding 30,000 and Derby just coming down from the championship.
We travelled to the game by car and Derby was easy to find and get to.
Derby County recommend away supports to park at Derby Conference Centre on London Road (DE24 8UX) and if you are to park there it is best to arrive after 12 as nobody was on the gate when we arrived.
We had food at a burger van outside the ground, I had cheesy chips which were £5 but were nice.
Before getting in the ground I was worried about the view as we were in the corner of the bowl shaped ground but when we got to our seats the view was amazing!
Atmosphere at the start of the game was brilliant, got better when they were 2-0 up at half time but when we scored one and came back to win 2-3 the atmosphere changed which you would expect.
7/10
Very easy when getting away from the ground! Walked straight to the car and got out of Derby in 10 minutes.
Not too much, I would say good value!
Yes definitely recommend going to this ground! The only thing that was not good was how far pubs were from the ground but other then that it was the best away day I’ve ever done and I do a lot!
A new ground for me to visit so in that respect another one crossed of the list!
WBA supporters coach. Easy run from the Hawthorns.
Nice stadium from the outside. Pride Park is another “bowl” type stadium so no “ends” as such. Away fans located in the South East corner. Great unimpeded view of the pitch.
Albion fans are always so noisy at away games it’s sometimes difficult to hear the home fans but the atmosphere in our section was great.
Never really met any but certainly no problems anywhere.
Not too bad. Police held the traffic for the coaches.
Bought a programme and a pin badge so just over a fiver, plus the cost of the ticket and the supporters coach.
Definitely. As with any ground if there are plenty of fans then it can be a great atmosphere in the away section.
Derby away is always a good fixture. Derby are a top end championship side who are always there or thereabouts which always means an entertaining fixture.
We travelled in large numbers by train which only took 30 minutes from Sheffield.
We went in numerous pubs in the city centre, the main one being the sports bar which had a great atmosphere with the away fans inside singing and having a great time.
We ate street food in the town. I had a foot long hot dog with onions for £4 which was great value.
Derby put away fans in the corner of the ground which amounts to a great view. One of the best views as an away supporter in the Championship in my opinion.
After going 1-0 down within 20 seconds the blades fans were still in fine voice and the atmosphere was electric.
8/10
It was busy getting away from the ground and the train station is quite a walk, and is poorly sign posted. We referred to google maps even though we’d been here before.
Probably around £150 The ticket was £27 and the train was £11 return. The rest went on booze and food.
Yes, derby is a great away day especially as for us it’s down the road and not a long journey to get home.
It’s a new ground for me to go to and I do as many away games as I can, so I had to go!
I drove up from Gloucestershire on the M1 and it was easy enough.
There was an away car park near the ground, which was easy to find.
We had a McDonald’s near the ground.
Very good view and the away fans were amazing!
The Derby fans were terrible even when they were winning. The away end was a giant party.
They were all miserable!
It was very easy to get away from the stadium after the game.
As long as you don’t mind watching football in a library!
