Barbados 2013, I might pop over.. Aint far for me

I wonder who will be swung to join DCFC in the summer of 2013 just so they get a free trip to Barbados.. Forget selling the football club and history and future plans, focus on selling the Barbados trip and everyone will want to join us..

Charlie Austins agent: 'So, what can Derby County offer me that Ipswich Town and Birmingham City can't?'

Tom Glick: 'A pre-season tour in Barbados and free Tequila Sunrises at our club hotel'

Charlie Austins agent: 'Done! Where does my client sign?'

Following this reaction this year, It'll be interesting to see what he says next year when we are off to Barbados. Obviously the season is more important than pre-season, and maybe we can use Barbados as a bargaining chip when signing players next summer. Join us and we'll take you on holiday to the Caribbean for pre-season, perhaps not a priority, but it could sway a player who is torn.

Derby County pre-season plans suit boss Nigel Clough

Manager Nigel Clough says Derby County's pre-season plans to stay in the UK will give his side the best preparation for the new season.

The Rams play friendlies with Burton, Mansfield, Northampton, Colchester, Sunderland and Chesterfield.

Clough [url=http://www.dcfc.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10270%7E2786032,00.html]told the club's website: "We have got a beautiful training ground and beautiful parks around us. We are very fortunate.

"We will have a few days away together and that is all. We won't go abroad."

Of the six pre-season matches, Derby's only home friendly is against Sunderland on Wednesday, 8 August.

"We are happy that we are staying in the UK again as part of our preparations for next season," added Clough.

"Climate is certainly a major factor. You can go to the majority of Europe or the United States and it is extremely warm at this time of year.

"You are limited at what you can do and the times you can do it."
