Paul Jewell arrived at Pride Park full of optimism and was confident that he could improve Derby’s fortunes. However, it appears as though the Rams were a lot better off two seasons ago (apart from financially of course) when Billy Davies was at the helm, steering the underdogs to promotion at the first time of […]

Derby County’s Robbie Savage has missed most of the season with a plethora of injuries and he is unlikely to return soon. He has played just 7 times for the Rams this season and is expected to stay at Derby Park when Derby play Championship football next season.
Yet Derby boss Paul Jewell sympathises with Savage’s […]

Only a madman more than a match for the asylum caretakers would suggest that Derby County would survive the drop from the Premiership at the end of this season. Even the Rams’ manager Paul Jewell has resigned himself and his team to Championship football next season.
