Pretty sure it was worn as an away kit in the 74-75 Championship winning season and the following one . I have a replica one now.Β 

It was later I believe - more like 78-79 following the 1978 World Cup in Argentina and was inspired by Argentina’s strip.Β

This pic of Henry Newton popped up today wearing the Argentina kit and he left us in 1977 so must have been somewhere in between but earlier than β€˜78 ?Β

When was the pale blue and dark blue striped shirt?

I'm not one for striped shirts in general but those two were great.

I bet @loweman2can not only tell us the precise date from his book but he probably also has Henry’s shirt in his collection ?

I got Toffs to make a one off for this shirt, links in the 1884-1895 Racecourse years shirts to the move to the BBG, this was the away shirt that was worn from 1895 to 1924 when the first badge was then applied, Steve Bloomer would have made many appearances and scored many goals in these colours and can be seen in the images below, they were also second division champions.

James Collins no 9 shirt from the Carabao cup tie at Anfield, also the black poppy armband worn by the players to show their respects for the glorious dead.

this was the first game that the shirts had the NSPCC charity logo in place of a sponsorship logo.

A great statement from the club away from the gambling and fast food logos of the previous regime.

this shows that we are a club at the centre of our community!

To Derby County fans of a certain age this man was God, he was our generations Kevin Hector, his name would reverberate around the Baseball Ground for many years, even long after he had left us, it was his goals that dragged us kicking and screaming up the football league, Peter Taylor’s last moment of genius to add to those many legends he had spotted years before with his mate Brian.

Bobby is a super proud man, he still doesn’t understand the cult hero status that he holds in Derby with the fans, I think that it is a sad reflection on football that he is now working as a baggage handler at Leeds airport.

He should be walking around in diamond encrusted shoes, driving his Aston Martin, he has tried numerous years to let back into the club as a coach with the youth team but that became impenetrable under a certain individual and also MM.

He worked at St George’s for the FA for a number of years.

In my eyes he is an absolute legend of Derby County, an absolute idol as a kid, when everybody else had the keegans, dalglshes and Linekers we had Bobby, we might have been in the third division but it didn’t matter !

he never missed those one on ones with the keeper, he got his head in where it hurt and he had that great 80s moustache.

so heres to you Bobby Davison, Derby loves you more than you will know !

An absolute Spanker of a shirt, seldom seen round these parts !
The 1985-86 away shirt from the Arthur Cox third division promotion season, worn predominantly by loyal servant to Derby County Paul Blades in what would be his break through season.

The shirt was worn in a number of away games that season.
Osca took inspiration from the 1977 Umbro away shirt of the same colours, a blend of the lighter blue of the early days and the darker blue of what was current.
The player shirt as seen here was of a lighter blue than the replica shirt.
A lovely piece of our history and a major turning point that season turned out to be.

Osca made the shirts that we wore on our journey back to the top.

1986-87 promotion season John Gregory yellow away shirt, an absolute beauty of a shirt in this colour and nice to add another one of the midfield maestro’s shirts from those halcyon back to back Β promotion seasons to the collection, nice touch that Osca added the blue brown and amber cuffs and neck, good times !Β 
Thanks to @lukeyb07 for sorting this one.

Without Didsy this season would have been over at Christmas! His 24 goals in 43 games showed he is still a class striker and made him our player of the season, this league suits him.
will he be our talismanic striker next season ?Β 
Let’s hope so, a player who can score goals no matter what their age is priceless at any level, we need somebody who can play to and off his strengths to compliment him further.
What I love about him is he always plays with a smile and gives it 100%, always coming back to find the ball, a worker !
Nice to have one of his signed worn shirts for the collection !
Oh David McGoldrick
