Is that same area as normanton No South Normanton is near Alfreton, south of Chesterfield. Normanton is near Derby city centre, the old baseball ground was close to that area.

HOOTIE AND THE SHIT TU Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 4 hours ago, HIGHERSTATE said: Theres a group of East Midlands owls that drive up to most games. Friends from Longeaton. Either the last home game or the one before, I was talking to a nice fella who drives a mini bus of Wednesdayites to home and away games, we were in the small room in the Wednesdayite lounge, it was packed out with hardly a spare seat, he sat with me and my son to eat his meal, I think he said they were from East Midlands, apparently they all clubbed to and bought this mini van a few years ago, just wondering if it's the same group Just a bloke, who used up all his luck in one go when he met his wife.
