Indeed this was Derby's biggest ever crowd at just under 42000. I was an excited 9yr old standing in the boys end (you can see overspill of some of the boys in the corner near the touchline celebrating the third goal). It cost 2 shillings and sixpence (or 12.5pence in todays money) - unbelievable really. Derby's performances in that first season following promotion from the old Second Division were first class, and there was a real buzz about the place. I particularly remember Dave Mackay thrusting both arms in the air at the final whistle, because of course he had been in Spurs double winning side a few years earlier.

I was at the game as a 13 year old in the pop-side, I remember that save from Jimmy Greaves like it was yesterday, When we got out after the game I was crushed with one arm up in the air and the other across my chest and just moving along with the crowd, my feet weren't even touching the floor! Heady days! RIP Jimmy Greaves.

Hello Barry, I was at this game and I'd only been in Derby for a week as I'd just joined Rolls Royce as an Apprentice Engineer. I was 16 and a half years young. I'm from the South and I was and still am a BIG Tottenham Supporter. Spurs Supporters took the place over on that day and even my Derby mates told me that later as well. It was Derby's biggest crowd ever at the Baseball Ground. Never to be repeated. There were Spurs lads with axes, bottles, and everything. My Derby mates who were in the Popside said that they had never seen anything like it before. Spurs Fans were having a go at them from everywhere and after the game they were rather scared cos' Spurs Fans were everywhere and looking for trouble. The trains back to London were wrecked by Spurs Fans and the trains stopped near Luton to get them all off - then the Spurs lot proceeded to wreck a couple of Villages near Luton. It was in all the Newspapers of the day and British Rail got a roasting for letting Spurs off the train - They should have kept the train going back to London and then had a Police presence at St Pancras to deal with it................................

Up to this time, at some games, there were fights going off during the late 60's. Due mainly to large crowds travelling on cheap football special trains. Large away mobs would try and ''take'' the home end, especially around 1969/70 at the time of the skinheads and boot boys. Could be a bit fierce some and terrifying at times.

I think this was and is Derby's record crowd 42,000 odd, i might have been in the Normanton end i remember the iron railings at the midline area of the pop side had bent over, and some people were laid flat across them stuck, with St Johns ambulance people trying to pull them out

Yes hard to believe they crammed almost 42,000 in the BBG on that day. I was a bit to young for 1969, but i stood on the Popside from 1974 onwards. As a child i would stand at the front and stick my head under the 3 railings and often in the puddles of water that gathered at our feet. You could almost grab hold of the players legs they were so close to us.

Spurs had good forwards but their defence was awful. The notion that if you have mediocre defenders but good forwards, you will continue to win matches has always been a problem at Spurs. In this particular game, the full backs and wing halves were third rate. Hence, they were thumped by Derby.
