Review
Another classic Derby game. The first half was pretty unforgettable with not a lot of stablity in our midfield, but once Lewis Grabban opened the scoring straight after half-time, we had a much better match. Brennan Johnson double the lead with just 8 minutes to go, but Scott McKenna gave a penalty that Tom Lawrence converted to make it a nervous last few minutes before Ravel Morrison was red-carded for high studs in the last minute of extra time. The ensuin melee continued on after the game with Morrison returning to the field, but we managed to get the win, retain the Brian Clough Trophy and keep Derby down at the bottom.
