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

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

With Ozoh in - the chemistry of the midfield is going to shift again. I am fascinated to see how it shakes out. Ebou, Ozoh and Kenzo or Weimann? #dcfc #dcfcfans

It is so #dcfc that he is already injured. Still exciting though #dcfcfans

Lovely to see Matt Clarke sign. I wonder what this means for Nat Phillips, if we have Langas, Nelson, Clarke and Fozzie as cover will we do the deal for Nat? #dcfcfans #dcfc

I think only the final day one coming true out of these worries shows how well Eustace did to keep the lads going. #dcfc #dcfcfans
Here are the things I am #dcfc anxious about ahead of the end of the season.

- Luton catching us
- Stoke and Hull pulling away
- Derby not being able to keep this good form going
- Relegation going down to the final day.
- Ebou/Yates/Harness injury.

You know what? The feeling of relief is actually amazing. All credit to John Eustace, what a man - a true Ram. #dcfc #dcfcfans
