Dad, Husband, football, typical woke millennial.
I think that Derby may have their classic terrible Jan/Feb. With the injuries and form issues as they are, I can't see us getting many results. (I can't wait to see the Leeds game live) #dcfc #dcfcfans

It feels like "Will club X beat the #dcfc 07-08 record" season comes earlier every year.

Love the stats from @derbycountyblog.bsky.social - but the fact this isn't changing isn't filling me with confidence....

So glad this game is on ITV so a wider audience can watch us get our pants pulled down. #dcfc #dcfcfans

Hey @derbycountyblog.bsky.social are you aware of the Uncle Jeff Coefficient? From @totallyshow.bsky.social, it measures how a team does in the corresponding fixture last season compared to this season. #dcfc are 2 points better off. I replaced the relegated/promoted teams with their counterparts.

Bet United Strand wishes he was County Strand #dcfc #dcfcfans

Okay maybe not 46. Currently on track for 28 though 🤣
I guess Carlton Morris is going to score 46 goals this season #dcfc #dcfcfans

Awful. Awful. Dreadful. #dcfc

xG of 0.12 against the team second bottom in the league. #dcfc #dcfcfans

What a birthday present this is, by the way. Alongside new #dcfc shirts for me and the boy, which I am looking forward to getting the odd "don't see Derby shirts much round here" as I wander around TW. To @footballcliches.bsky.social - Listen, fair play.

I did the "manager heads in the goal for the player" move while at the play park - what a goal from the big man.

Now the negative - one win in nine is actually quite bad. We are hard to beat but we have to stop it with the soft goals. #dcfc #dcfcfans

Fantastic Christmas present #dcfcfans
As a teenager I discovered one of my Christmas presents hidden in my Mum & Dad's bedroom. I used to sneak in & read it & put it back in the lead up to Christmas. It was the Who's Who of Derby County from 1992. It didn't make it any less exciting to open it on Christmas Day.

Why do I think it's a good idea to listen to @totallyshow.bsky.social 07/08 season review on match day? #dcfc #dcfcfans

Smash and grab 100%, but they were 2nd in the league and unbeaten until they came up against us. Next three - Preston, Wrexham and Charlton, we should try and flex our muscles now. #dcfc #dcfcfans

Going to do a wow-o-meter for Derby signings this transfer window. A lot to get through, and it's always exciting to see new faces in black and white, but this transfer window has been something else. You may not care what my thoughts are but you are getting them anyway. #dcfc #dcfcfans THREAD

Positives - Travis is literally everywhere, Johnston is so good, BREWSTER! Carlton Goal machine Morris.

Negatives - just horrendous refereeing, brain farts costing us, game management.

Two weeks on the training ground, and we will kick on after the international break.

I am at a bloody wedding that kicks off at 3pm today - they will be really annoyed when I start cheering in the middle of the ceremony. #dcfc #dcfcfans

Turns out it's three - Scott Carson, Ashley Cole and Fabrizio Ravanelli
Welcome Rhian. He becomes the third Derby player to have won a Champions League medal (by my reckoning). Anyone know the others? #dcfcfans #dcfc
