Could be a magical signing . 

Alright Rams, Guiseley (who?) fan here in peace.
I came to the Oxford game on Saturday with my mate (Wolves fan). 
It was our first trip to Pride Park between us and usually we pick a random game every so often. So we ended up at your place.
We had a great time, your stadium is fantastic. Plenty of eateries around the ground too. The fans we were sat near were passionate and it was infectious. We were in the North Stand which was family orientated but it was nice to see so many youngsters getting behind the team.
The atmosphere was great, the bounce by the south stand was something I won't forget. Capped with a great goal to get the win aswell. 
Only downside being, we parked at the industrial park past the south stand and we didn't move for about an hour after the final whistle. But that didn't spoil a great day out. 
All the best for the season, will be looking out for your results and will likely come back later in the season too. 

I’m just offended that Nicko is a more reliable source than me!

Better than Jack Stretton?

In Ripley ?

This sounds familiar.... ? 

Did you miss the part where we got a new owner who’s nothing to do with the previous ownership and had already been punished to the tune of 21 points and the majority of the players we had leaving? Where have you been?

Knight is just about the first name down for Saturday, IMO. Be very sad to see him leave. Energy and a touch of quality. Hope he stays.

Saying "he's always injured anyway" has the same energy as a girlfriend dumping you and saying "she wasn't a looker anyway."
Yes she was, and this is a massive loss. 

Do you reckon he'll get his collar felt?

Even though this is only a friendly, some things never change - the pattern and style we play stinks really - we piss about keeping possession at the back, passing side to side in our own half. Then when we eventually pass the ball forward, it’s usually a poor pass, we lose possession and straight away we are under pressure with teams bearing down on us. 
Let’s be honest, we can’t keep playing in this way - if hasn’t worked for for us ever, so why do we persist in trying to play this way ? 
if tonight’s match was about simply improving our fitness levels, then it didn’t - tippi tappi football never got anyone fit - they’d have been better spending the evening running round Allestree Golf Course like the squad used to do in the good old days !! 

I think it's fair to say that he's stuck by the club and the club has stuck by him. He played in every single game of the 2013/14 season (53), and all but 2 the following season (51). He would have probably carried on like that in subsequent seasons, but for two terrible injuries, neither of which were his fault. AFAIK he's never been a trouble-maker, never been one of the better paid in the squad, at least until it started to be dominated by under 21s, and always been willing to play where the manager wanted him to. By any measure, for a modern-day footballer, his career at Derby has been notable.
I don't really agree with testimonials for footballers these days - most of them earn enough if they stay at one club for 10 years at Championship level, because that's a longer than average career, but i hope at least that he signs on for his 10th full season with us, not least because he'll be essential cover at LB/LCB. Then perhaps we can ensure he gets a good send off when we know it's his last game for us.

His best may be gone, but what he has left may be plenty for L1. Big lad at full back can be a bonus with some of the lump it and run after it football we'll  be on the end of...and he can cross a ball with tolerable consistency.

Essential, no. Guilty as charged though tbh; I'd love to see Foz get 10 years here for sentimental reasons too.

Brill. Actual real live forwards. Mental days.?

I'm never buying into people's opinion of a player based on their history again since bucko.

f*** off....f*** off
Hurry up Parry f*** off
f*** off. f*** off
Hurry up Parry f*** off..
We're gonna win League 1....
 
To the tune of Hurry up Harry..

Kwaku, ay up me duck, welcome to Derby.

If he gets his fitness back we will have the best player in the league. I wouldn’t be rushing to get shot just yet….

I think Derby County Community Trust might continue their fund to buy tickets for families who can't afford it. If they do, you'd be putting money into the club and adding to the matchday atmosphere. What's not to like about that? 

We were reportedly after him previously but signed Butterfield instead.
