Day Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 The kit has been White shirt with Black shorts for years 1897 according to the link below, the only recent change (70's) was to Blue at Brian Cloughs request, a few years after he left we went back to Black shorts. http://www.historicalkits.co.uk/Derby_County/Derby_County.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
