Derby 2 - 2 Fulham
Click here for a dose of Paul Jewell post-match realism.
A draw snatched from the jaws of victory… relegation and humiliation snatched from the jaws of, um… survival, oh… and pride. We’re relegated. Finally…. and as some might say “put out of our misery” - but that will only [...]
Pre-Fulham Prayers…

It’s been another brilliant week in the life of a Derby County supporter. Again, mentioning no names (*cough* gutter-press *cough*) it’s just another low on what has been a nightmare season. Still, despite wishing for it to end I’d much rather get to this blessed 16 point target first. I can’t even [...]

As I said in last nights post our great club craves stability… And… without giving a certain gutter-press paper any more free advertising than absolutely necessary… I hope that our owners stand by our manager.

Middlesbrough 1 - 0 Derby County

Derby County 0 - 1 Manchester United
The thing with Manchester United is that you have to accept they are one of the best teams in the world and if you’re going to avoid an old fashioned shoeing you need to more than match them for effort and determination and not let them play their game. [...]
Playing For Pride

Hands up who thought David Jones’ goal at Stamford Bridge was the start of a massive revival? Anyone…? Anyone…? Well I think last night’s result summed up our season. Most Derby fans would agree that games against Chelsea and Manchester United (on Saturday) weren’t going to define our season but in a strange [...]

Nothing Worthwhile Was Ever Easy - that was the closing statement from our new American owner, Tom Glick at a fans forum at Pride Park last night. Tom Glick, Adam Pearson and Paul Jewell fielded questions from season ticket holders in what was a very honest and open meeting. Here are some of the main [...]

When you’re bottom of the table, with a goal difference that does actually make Alan Hansen twitch that last thing you want to do is to be the first team to play Chelsea and Manchester United after the weekend they’ve had.
Speaking of Manchester United, I’d like to make a quick comment about Ronaldo after [...]
