Who are we?
Popside Fanatics is a Derby County supporter movement that aims to bring the atmosphere we once had at the BBG to Pride Park Stadium. We began the journey in the 2022/2023 season and have many people willing to support the cause. With the ideas we have, we look to inspire future generations to keep the cause a live.
We will look to organise events all around Derbyshire for all to be involved at numerous establishments and other venues. We are crowdfunding to show displays at the home games of different scales with all stands being involved. The atmosphere when it wants to be at Pride Park can be one of the best in the country and the fans really do become ‘the 12th man’.
Popside fanatics are keen to have more Derby County Supporters on board from all ages, backgrounds and also other DCFC supporter groups to be involved with.
Why are we crowdfunding?
For surfers, flags, more entertainment before home games and the vision is having our own home to provide entertainment before home games and to provide a fans park
We are also asking for any funding, grants for our mission to be completed for the Derby community and supporters of Derby County
How we’ll spend the money raised
The funds will go towards surfers, flags and again in the future a public house where we can provide our own entertainment with adding local ale and local food from Derbyshire to be a part of our journey. At times we will also be supporting local grassroots football clubs who need the support for kits, footballs, training equipment and more Community impact
Due to Derby not having a fan park in the city, the community will be benefit from the end goal. Local businesses from Derbyshire will also be within the plans and local bands and solo artists to provide entertainment.
