‘ 3,315 tickets sold ‘

Derby County already relegated to league 1,have sold 3,315 tickets for their away trip Blackpool.

Absolutely brilliant support.

Derby have asked if they can have more tickets.

Their fans have accepted the relegation almost as a sign of relief and are bullish about going straight back up with Rooney next season. They waited for the team to return after getting beat by QPR and gave them a great reception. Many of them looking forward to new grounds next season and seeing what the new owner does, they seem to be a fan of his too. Rooney has done a good job there and they've scrapped for every point so fair play but I'll be there for our last game to wave the Snowmen goodbye.

Cant fault their support this season but their away following in previous years hasn't been great considering their central location.

I imagine some are quite relieved to have a break from the championship and a fresh start. I didn’t quite realise how mediocre they’ve been. In the last 20 seasons 19 were in the championship with only 6 play off finishes. They had 1 disastrous PL season where they got 11 points. In their 40 cup runs they’ve made it further than the Ro16 only once, the semi final of the league cup.

They improved a bit in recent years but as it turns out that’s because they were cheating. Compared to them we’ve had a pretty exciting 2 decades.
