Doesn't time go slowly? Seems so much longer ago! 😉

Huddlestones debut possibly pre-dates some of those at the beginning of the list so maybe that’s why he’s not in the last 50

Yes just for Derby

I think this is about right although the order may be slightly off. League games only (many just made one sub appearance). It shows that the academy has produced far more players in recent years than it did previously. I've ignored players such as Jozwiak, Connor Doyle, Shinnie, Calaro who made a debut for a league club outside of England as tried to focus on the youngsters. Let me know if I have missed anyone.

28. Place of birth: Cleethorpes Signed for Derby: 1994 First club: Derby County Last club: Stafford Rangers Position: MF Full caps: 0 Not so fun fact: Lost over £500,000 due to a gambling addiction and in June 2008 received treatment after becoming suicidal

I did work experience at the Post Office, when I was at school. I was really too young for the job. We would sit in the sorting office, listening to the radio, putting the parcels in order. Every time the music stopped, I would open one.

27. Place of birth: Bridgend Signed for Derby: 1963 First club: Cardiff City Last club: Shrewsbury Town Position: MF / F Full caps: 27 Fun fact: As a manager, once told a journalist, "This is soccer. If you want entertainment go and watch a bunch of clowns"

I wonder how Bird will feel if the ultimate happens and T'Rams get promoted? He'd then be in the same division but find himself having to move house to join a smaller club.

26. Place of birth: Birmingham Signed for Derby: 1994 First club: Derby County Last club: Coventry City Position: MF Full caps: 40 Fun fact: At the end of his career played in a Sunday league team with Darren Byfield, Paul Devlin & Lee Hendrie.

25. Place of birth: Lowestoft Signed for Derby: 1981 First club: Scunthorpe United Last club: Scunthorpe United Position: DF Full caps: 0 Fun fact: Played in a European Cup semi final (not for Scunthorpe!)

We are now in the top 10 points per game in the 92 clubs list, but still third in League One. A shade off that magic two points per game. I still feel that the 98th minute penalty equaliser for Wycombe at home is going to be huge at the end of the season.

24. Place of birth: Valréas Signed for Derby: 2000 First club: ASOA Valence Last club: Hibernian Position: DF Full caps: 0 Fun fact: Left Hibs as he was unable to communicate with the Scottish Manager!.

And they give us Korey Smith 😏

So did he. Edit: Just seen someone's done that joke already

For the past twenty years, I've received a Valentine's card from the same secret admirer. So, I was pretty upset when I didn't get one this year. First my granny dies, now this?

It feels a bit like he’s the new kid at school and nobody passes to him. Very quiet DCFC career start.

Currently watching series five of Fargo (Prime). Incredibly good, as are all the others.

I ditched my payment package after one year. Couldn't justify the rise. If I get burgled and show the Police the video, they won't be interested anyway!

Thoroughly enjoyed the Carnival Lampegat in Eindhoven at the weekend. Possibly the most bonkers weekend I've ever witnessed, even more mad than Newcastle away 2009. Almost everyone was in fancy dress and the beers flowed 24/7. I've been to Mardi Gras in New Orleans and that wasn't a patch on this, those Dutch are craaaazy! Highly recommended!
