Burton Albion's promotion from League One sees them playing in the second tier for the first time in their history.

Another new ground for me, Cant wait to visit :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

I went there early last season as my eldest lad lives in Derby.

The ground is no where near big enough for championship with a main stand seating 1500 and 3 terraces. Locals were a friendly bunch with away fans allocated about 1500 on the terrace and 200 or so seats. Ground is easy to get to and not far from town centre which is the capital of the British brewing industry. Think it has more pubs per head than any other place in uk which should suit our away support!

New ground for me, too. Is Nigel Clough back there now? We payed them at home in the league cup,a couple of seasons ago. Mr Karen Brady was their manager then. They took us to extra time. One of Ross McCormack's last games. Think he got a goat-trick.
