Derby County 3 - 1 Huddersfield Town

Kick-off 3.07pm




Well, the articulate and well-meaning Huddersfield followers have already written, here on the Derby board about their pessimism and total non-expectation of getting any kind of respectable result at the iPro.. This is my speciality, reverse, pessimistic psychology and I ain't falling for it . Everyone knows Derby lose to teams on rotten runs........don't they?

Jamie Ward should be back in the squad, otherwise I cannot see any team changes from the excellent job done on Tuesday against Blackpool

Have completed paper round (You were right Cat ) - 15YO is gutted to be missing the game - in France on a school trip......and will be meeting Micky Mouse later......
