Sander Berge who we looked at (currently out with a hamstring) is their best player in a sub-Soucek sort of way. Ramsdale looked promising at Bournemouth but has been mediocre Unfortunately for them they spent £40m on his and Brewster

Anyone you fancy getting from them once they're down? I thought Mc Burnie at one time, but seems to have lost it lately. Mind you they all have.

2 spots For the trap door already booked. Brighton or Fulham for the other one unless there is a team that makes a post Xmas fall of epic proportions?

As mentioned , Brewster is their Haller albeit half the money we wasted. They literally have no one who looks like he could score or cause a defence problems. I guess last season Henderson in goal helped too as even then they were often winning 1-0. The team work ethic and organisation is still good so you would think they will keep Wilder on when they get relegated as they almost certainly will.

Why did no one challenge Eze? He just jogged past them.

At this rate Derby's lowest points record is in danger. That team was truly terrible unlike Sheffield Utd.

Warnock was so bitter that he wished that both Man Utd and Liverpool lose their finals -i.e. the FA Cup and Champions League Final - for fielding a weaken side. He should know of all people that you should rely on others to do you any favours.

If you see Warnock's interview after Sheffield United's relegation that season, he is as bitter (if not more so) about Liverpool's weakened team against Fulham, as he is about Tevez.

The crucial game nobody ever mentions was Fulham 1-0 Liverpool on May 5th 2007. If memory serves me correctly Liverpool fielded a weakened team resting 9 regular players. Even a draw would've meant Fulham going down instead of the Blades.

We should expect the big clubs, if Sheffield United continue their current form, to use them as an example of why money distribution in the Premiership is ‘unfair’. When you think of Sheffield United likely take per point they might, for once, have a case.

Can remember that Villa side outplaying us for 15 mins at Upton Park. Jordan Ayew then punched Cresswell in the face right in front of us ... and the linesman Easy 2-0 win
Loved having Derby in the division. Only time we have ever won 5-0 away in the Premier league

Derby County were relegated from the Premier League with a record low total of 11 points.
One win, eight draws and 29 losses.
Only six teams have ever got fewer than 20 points in a Premier League season, with Derby’s total four adrift of the next lowest.
That 15-point campaign belongs to Mick McCarthy’s Sunderland side of 2005-06, with the Black Cats previously having been relegated with 19 points in 2002-03.
Portsmouth also limped to 19 points in 2009-10, Aston Villa managed only 17 in 2015-16 and Huddersfield last season finished on 16.
Derby’s relegation was the earliest in terms of date in the Premier League era, with Huddersfield relegated on March 30 but matching County’s mark of six games to go.

Dave Whelan was the biggest tit during that saga. Absolutely loved that away day at Wigan when we thumped them 0-4 with 5000 of us chanting Whelan, Whelan you're a cunt.
Anyway, talking of cunts, fuck you Sean Bean.

Some of those twats still "blame" us for their 12 years of exile from the top flight.
Recalled even Warnock blame Man Utd fielding a "weaken" side when we beat them thanks to Tevez.
