Nottingham forest 2-3 Derby county: The Great come back
By: Clemens | 2 Comments
Excuse me for not posting a match preview but got caught up in a mix and only came back when the match was about to start. Who would have guessed it yes as usual I was following the scoreline on the BBC, and in the early stages when the scoreline read 2-0 I switched of my pc and went straight to bed.
Besides being a local derby the match had a few interesting facts, Derby county were going to face Nottingham forest going up the Brian Clough way a street the manager’s father is named after, to face a team the manager got his name by,(he is the second highest all time goal scorer there) and a team his father coached back in the day. And on the city ground non-other than Billy Davis former derby coach that gained promotion is at the helm there…….weird.
The match besides being a rivalry match had an added incentive one which the winner will then go on to host Manchester united besides being a ticket spinner it was a cracker of a match,and a chance at revenge for us, so a win was the only frame of mind going in the match.
The early stages didnt provide any real team domination from either side, but it did provide two early goals against us.
Lewin Nyatanga made a rare start in defence for the Rams, replacing the injured Miles Addison with jay McEveley on left back, the line up looked something like this:
Nottingham forest were without many first team regulars such as Rob Earnshaw, and had plenty of kids on the bench just to fill up space.
A Nottingham Forest corner came in early and derby failed to defend sufficiently and the ball fell graciously to Chris Cohen who had one thing on his mind and a shot in a crowded penalty box gained a deflection and into the net with Bywater having no chance 1-0 down with just 1 minute on the clock.
Tyson got a sweet ball and ran into the derby box and got triped by Bywater resulting in the keeper earning himself a yellow card and a penalty, which Tyson slammed in. 2-0 down and derby county players were looking at themselves.
They needed a response and got it in the 27th minute Robbie Savage gave a sweet pass to the left onto gary teal who crossed it into the box for rob hulse who had a free header 2-1.
Derby county shifted gear and moved forward, but could only continue after the half time period were they got a major inspiration from nigel and the boys took off were they left off -in the front foot of things.-
Derby’s determination was duely paid as our player Rob green in the 60th minute hit a belter that took a deflection and looped in the net the boo boys were stunned and silenced 2-2 now to go for the win.
Derby was by far on top of thing winning every 50-50 and every corner. In the 74th minute the roof went of the city ground as Kris Kommons scored the winner against his former team to send them crashing out of the FA cup, the best match of the night a good team performance a the side is looking good game by game if we take these type’s of performances into the league it will be not be long till we find ourself in a decent league position and hope for promotion next season,
GO RAMS!!

By: Clemens | 1 Comment
Well Well the big 29year old jamaican central defender after a injury hit short stint here at derbyshire has decided to move on to crystal palace once again like in the barnes move with a view to make the deal permanant. he was one of the commited defenders in our premier league debacle, he really put in effort and could have become more than that had it not been for niggling injuries, one of my favorites.
Nigel seems to be wielding his power now

The first and looks like the last signing derby got through the door is as we speculated in an earlier post non other than motherwell’s Chris porter, the 25 year old striker has signed a two and a half year deal as is highly rated by the manager he went on to say:
He has a proven track record of scoring goals and has tremendous physical attributes.
“Hopefully he will have a positive impact for us between now and the end of the season.
“We have some good competition for places now with the forwards and that can only be good news for us going forward.”
Well striker will not be a position I will prioritise in this team but obviously the manager think’s otherwise. I would rather bring in a backup creative midfielder,
one wonder’s what has ever happened to villa,and why is he on the team and why wasn’t he offloaded in the window? I don’t have news about him but well…
WELCOME CRIS AND MAY YOU SCORE PLENTY OF GOALS FOR US…..

Hoooraahhh a win looong overdue but couldn’t come any sooner and Nigel tastes his first win at the helm and 1 of many we hope the lads played well and picked up 3 points nothing anymore a fan could ask from his team, big things gonna start happening starting from here somehow I have this feeling.
So late posts due to the fact internet is still very unreliable here in Africa, but hey I online now do hooray once again.
The line up was no surprise as Nigel played his trusted card’s and they so duly delivered. As I will state once again it is difficult for me to give my own personal opinion about a match I couldn’t watch because the damn TV network’s just don’t give championship fans a break.
But as I scrolled through the webpage nervously looking for my beloved team’s results I found that we won WON WON,grand.
The scores on our side was kris kommons and rob hulse but it was a very good all round team performance and really gave the crowd their money’s worth.
Category: Derby Team NewsMatch preview:Derby County vs Coventry City(15:00GMT),Another must win
By: Clemens | Add Comments
Short post to day,We are in the bottom three and face a tricky home test against Coventry city tomorrow night. our recent form hasn’t been good of late but I won’t go into detail about that all that is sure is we need the three point’s to pull ourselves out the bottom three.
Jay McEveley has recovered from his shoulder injury after taking part in a behind the doors game,and training normaly and might come on from the bench. A big sigh of relief is that our current
joint top goal scorer (3 league,6 cups)Nathan ellington is back to the squad after shaking of a groin and hamstring niggle, it would be good to partner him with Rob Hulse in front just to increase our chances of scoring some goals.
oventry are currently are currently 14th on the table,and having a up and down they lost Wednesday match against Cardiff at home and really look to get something from this match.
There is no team sheet yet for the match for our team and the game won’t be covered again -sigh- so I will see were I can get match reviews to the game.
We hope our boys can get three point’s tomorrow, as we wouldn’t want another loss at home after the embarrasing loss at home last time out and,we hope Nigel can put out a strong side.
Go lads

Some good news one of our better players Stephen Pearson is recovering from a knee injury and is in the final stages of recovery.He made a 30 minute cameo appearance against aston villa in a behind doors little friendly played yesterday. He injured his knee back in september at the home draw against birmingham city.
Luck appears to be on our side in the injury front as defender jay McEveley also took part in the friendly match,He suffered a shoulder injury at charlton during his loan spell there but it’s good to have him onboard.
OH we won the match 2-1. 
GO RAMS!!!
