Squad12 Oct 2026

Tristan Gill damages knee ligaments — 21 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 21 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Squad12 Oct 2026

A fracture rules Andreas Weimann out for 96 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Derby County will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Match10 Oct 2026

Derby County win it in stoppage time

The board had gone up, the arguing had started, and then the ball was in the net in the 96th minute. Rotherham United will replay every second of the added time for a week.

Squad12 Oct 2026

A one-man rearguard from Josh Vickers

There were 6 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Player ratings12 Oct 2026

No sign of nerves from Bobby Clark at 21 — 7.62

The hardest thing about being 21 in a senior side is that nobody makes allowances. Bobby Clark did not need any: 7.62, and he looked the most comfortable man on the pitch.

Squad12 Oct 2026

Tempers go at Derby County

Joël Veltman was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Match10 Oct 2026

Carlton Morris the difference as Derby County beat Rotherham United

Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Carlton Morris. 3‑2 against Rotherham United, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.

The terraces12 Oct 2026

Derby County supporters have found a favourite in Bobby Clark

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 21-year-old it feels ownership of. Bobby Clark has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.

Player ratings12 Oct 2026

Nobody could get near Jaydon Banel

Successful dribbles: 14. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad5 Oct 2026

Tristan Gill damages knee ligaments — 30 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 30 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Squad5 Oct 2026

A fracture rules Andreas Weimann out for 107 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Derby County will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Squad5 Oct 2026

Andreas Weimann says Derby County went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Squad5 Oct 2026

Joël Veltman in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Derby County this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Boardroom5 Oct 2026

Derby County counting the cost

The accounts make uncomfortable reading. Wages first and ambition second is the order of business at Derby County now.

Match3 Oct 2026

Derby County find a way past Milton Keynes Dons

Milton Keynes Dons made Derby County work for it, but the scoreboard read 1‑0 at the end and the table does not ask how.

Player ratings5 Oct 2026

Nobody could get near Sam Szmodics

Successful dribbles: 18. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Market5 Oct 2026

Derby County and Joël Veltman are talking past each other

“There is a gap, and pretending there is not helps nobody.” Neither side has moved, and the calendar is working for exactly one of them.

Player ratings5 Oct 2026

The afternoon belonged to Patrick Agyemang

A mark of 7.39, and nobody in the ground would argue with it. He was involved in everything that mattered and most of what did not.

Match5 Sep 2026

Nowhere to hide for Derby County

0‑3 against Fulham, and no complaints that would survive the replay. The manager spoke about character afterwards; the terraces used shorter words.

Market7 Sep 2026

Derby County say no — this time

The offer from Brentford for Lewis Travis was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Market7 Sep 2026

Josh Vickers puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Derby County, and it is not being withdrawn.

Market7 Sep 2026

Josh Vickers’s move to Ipswich Town falls through

The deal that would have taken Josh Vickers to Ipswich Town has collapsed at the last stage, and he reports back to Derby County with a summer to forget and a season still to play. Nobody is saying which side walked away.

Match5 Sep 2026

4 matches without a win for Derby County

The run now stands at 4, and the questions being asked around Derby County are no longer polite ones.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Tempers go at Derby County

Sam Szmodics was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad7 Sep 2026

Joël Veltman falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Boardroom7 Sep 2026

Derby County counting the cost

The accounts make uncomfortable reading. Wages first and ambition second is the order of business at Derby County now.

Market7 Sep 2026

Birmingham join the queue for Ben Osborn

Add another name to the list: Birmingham have asked the question everybody in the game has been asking about Ben Osborn. The answer from Derby County has not changed — yet.
