Derby

No they don't. I watched FA cup highlights at the weekend and before Derby's match they said 'and next up is Accrington versus Frank Lampard's Derby County.' They do it all the time. It's never Derby anymore it's always Frank Lampard's Derby. Please can you also explain what people are bitter about. If people kept on calling us Alex Neil's Preston (which they don't) I would be pissed off.

When we were on Sky earlier this season against Stoke, I watched the recording back the next day and they must have said “Alex Neil’s Preston” 4 or 5 times. They’ll probably do it tomorrow night too.

Don’t know why it would/does piss you off. It’s such a minor thing.
 
iv Got this feeling that Derby cant do this present PNE team at Deepdale, we are on the up and up, and if they cant tame stanley, they got no chance at our place, but we got to keep tabs on this Wilson guy COYW😊

It doesn’t piss me off personally, it’s actually quite amusing.

Frank Lampard’s Derby County
Steven Gerard’s Glasgow Rangers
Joey Barton’s Fleetwood Town

If you haven’t noticed that the national media don’t make a point of saying it you have been half asleep. Some TV pundits even smirk when saying it.
 
I have always thought of them as a league one team playing beyond their weight for the last half century. Unimpressed by their fans and their misguided sence of entitlement. Much prefer forest!
 
Can't knock Derby's home gates, average hasn't dipped below 24,000 since 97.

Averaged over 29,000 in numerous seasons at this level.
 
Used to like them as a kid when they played at the Baseball ground which always seemed a mudbath. That stopped when they poached Billy Davies and he landed on the pitch in a helicopter draped in a Derby scarf!!
