Derby 0 - 1 Doncaster
By: MoonPig |It’s like the first day back at school… A big build up but in the end it was a bit of a let down, but listen… I know everyone was expecting us to beat Doncaster but I think those people need to show some intelligence and even more patience. Doncaster played good football and [...]
Highlight Of My Weekend…
By: MoonPig |* The season is over! It’s over! It’s over!
* I found £20 (2x£5 and 1x£10) in my work trousers (pants for those of you who use the term ‘Soccer’)…
* … They had gone through the washing machine but were protected between some receipts.
Notice how I’ve completley glossed over the football. I guess I have [...]
The High And The Lows…
By: MoonPig |It’s difficult to think of an even amount of highs and lows, hence the title of this post - so I’m going with 3 of each. It was incredibly hard to limit the “lows” to just 3, and it was even harder to come up with 3 highs.
Derby 2 - 6 Arsenal

West Ham 2-1 Derby
By: MoonPig |Although you’d be forgiven for thinking ’same old story’, the performance (particularly in the 2nd half) was quite impressive and we looked competative and even the famously un-forgiving national press said so, so it must be true!
At times there are really good signs of improvement and the style of football we’ll be playing next [...]
The Morning After The Night Before…
By: MoonPig |After getting back from the game yesterday, stomping upstairs straight to my computer (stopping only via the fridge to grab a beer) to leave my thoughts - the only piece of information I wish to add is that my “0″ key is starting to wear out. And it ‘aint funny.

Derby 0 - 6 Aston Villa
By: MoonPig |Shambles! Absolute shambles! I have two real concerns (I know, you think I’d have more wouldn’t you!)
1. Our total lack of guts. After a really bright start (where we were the better team, not that any of the lazy TV pundits will acknowledge) the 2nd goal ended the game. You ask the [...]
Everton 1 - 0 Derby
By: MoonPig |It might be another defeat but Derby played with some real skill and determination, passing the ball around with some confidence - with Hossam Ghaly a class act - easily man of the match. The goal typically came from a aircraft-hanger sized gap in the middle of our defence which the one and only [...]
It’s Over…!
By: MoonPig |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 [...]
