To be fair, it must be pretty tricky for Rick Parry to type with only one hand free as I’m sure he does when updating the Derby County embargo page. 

Come on you Terriers!!!

Good for Keogh, letting bygones be bygones and all that…

Man of the Match Awards (half an award given when a tie occurred)
Jagielka         4
Ebiowei          4
 
Bird                3.5
Allsop             3.5
Cashin           3.5
 
Knight              3
Lawrence         3
Byrne               3
Thompson        3
 
Forsyth             2
Shinnie             2
Ebosele            2
Morrison           2
Roos                 2
 
Davies             1.5
 
Sibley                1
Stearman           1
Plange               1
Kazim                1
 
So Phil Jagielka and Malcom Ebiowei share the crown with four MotM awards each, a feat made all the more impressive when you consider Jags left in January and Ebiowei didn't make his first appearance until late in the season.
That Big Curt was toward the bottom of the list perhaps emphasises his steady contributions throughout, as backed up by the Podium stats.
The Academy graduates collected between them 21 of the 46 awards (45.65%), which increases to 23 awards (50% quickmath) if we include Roos.
 
 
Podium Awards (for making the top three in a match rating, half an award as above)
Davies                   14.5
 
Bird                        13
Byrne                     13
 
Allsop                     12
 
Cashin                     9.5
 
Jagielka                   9
Knight                      9
 
Ebosele                    8
 
Shinnie                     6
Lawrence                 6
Thompson                6
Ebiowei                    6
 
Forsyth                     5
 
Morrison                   4
Roos                          4
 
Kazim                        3
Plange                       3
 
Buchanan                  2
Stearman                   2
Sibley                         2
 
Bielik                          1
 
No surprise perhaps to see CD33 at the head of that list. He played every minute of every match and despite the odd dip in form - which you can forgive any centre back at his age - he was magnificent.
Fantastic to see the Academy young guns pick up 58.5 of the total award (42.39%). If we include Roos that increases to 62.5 awards (45.29%).
 
There may be some mileage in breaking it down further into awards by position etc but I've had my fill of digits for a while so I'll pass it over to one of you lovely souls. I'd be interested in reading further breakdowns if anybody does use the figures to pass an hour or fifty.
The most high profile and/or oft-rated of those who didn't manage to make it onto either list is, of course, Kamil JOZWIAK, which rather sums up his time at Derby. I rather suspect that 'a resigned shrug of ones shoulders' was known in Old English as 'a jozwiak'.

I was going to pick a few nuggets out of there but I'll read your thoughts, if indeed you have any, on our collective End of Season Stats Review. I'm tired and emotional though and it'll all end in tears.
Once again, thanks for staying awake if you've made it this far and here's to a club making its way back, starting with a takeover announcement tomorrow hopefully.

Again, a sincere thank you to all who contributed. A total of 46 matches required your input and the following deserve a mention for their efforts in making this thread the haven of choice for the more anally retentive. 
@bcnram and @Yani P both managed to submit ratings for 45 of the 46 matches whilst the following all contributed on at least 30 occasions:
@angieram (40), @Carnero (37), @dabber (31), @minesahartington (35), @rammieib (32), @sage (34) and @TexasRam (36).
 
General Overview
Number of different ratings contributors                                           119
Total number of individual ratings provided                                      10867
Total score given to the players                                                         71078
Average individual rating therefore                                                    6.54
Total number of players rated at least once                                      30

After a short interlude for refreshments I shall return with the breakdown on how our heroes fared in our collective humble opinion.

Although an avid reader, I rarely contribute to this site, but couldn’t let the season pass without a ‘Shout Out’ for Rams TV.
Throughout a traumatic season, although in many ways a hugely enjoyable one, there have been many accolades for the Team, Coaching Staff and back room staff. Part of that back room staff has been Rams TV and what a part they have played this season, although rarely mentioned in those accolades.
Dare I say that Owen Bradley has been one of Mel Morris’s best signings! I admired him on Radio Derby but he has grown to a new level over the last year or so (despite occasional dress malfunctions!). Always professional, reasoned and grounded (Mr Dawes at RD take note), his commentaries and interviews are always a good listen. Shaun Barker has added to mix this year and has been very listenable. A great combination.
I am sure that our potential new owner has been avidly watching their work in the USA over the last few weeks and hopefully, after the players, he will ensure that they are signed up for a prolonged period.
I don’t know if Owen reads this site, but if not, and someone knows him, please pass on, at least my thanks for his great work this year. He is the spokesperson for Rams TV but obviously has a great team behind him.
Well done Rams TV

That’s in the past. Roll on next season
