D*rby ended a sensational all-round season (speaking from our perspective) with a demoralising 3-1 defeat at home to Ipswich.
The attendances are falling, the financial situation is worsening, none of the players are happy, none of the players are talented (!), and following the formal sacking of John Gregory (something that we at D*rby haters shall strongly combat) - the sheep no longer even have a shepard!
The future isn't exactly bright for our neighbaa's!
And with their shocking situation ever deteriorating, the 'rams' could indeed find themselves battling the drop next season. To a much greater extent than they have done this year!
If the Reds miss out on promotion this season, at least we'll all be able to take great pleasure in seeing D*rby desperately fight to avoid the drop, whilst we seek promotion.
Forest are getting better, and the sheep are getting ever worse.
Long may this convenient D*rby decline, and Hart-inspired Forest improvement persist!
D*rby lose, and Forest secure a place in the play-off's
As the Reds sat back to enjoy the pleasures of being guaranteed a play-off place, their neighbaa's suffered a second consecutive defeat away at the hands of Walsall.
We would offer you a brief summarised report of this match, but unfortunately nobody actually attended this game (bar the 2 sides). And so nobody knows what happened. Colin Lee says that D*rby lost 3-2, but George Burley was quick to disagree, we didn't hear what he said though - because he talks like Donald Duck.
A win, a draw and a delay in talks
D*rby overturned shock-strugglers Coventry 1-0 to end their chances of playing Division 2 football next season. But as a formal apology to the supporting sheep (for this uncharacteristic achievement), they returned to losing-ways with a 2-0 defeat away at Watford. Michael Chopra and Neal Ardley condemned the sheep to their 14th away-day defeat this season.
And talks between the sheep board and suspended Shepard John Gregory were postponed. They shall now take place at a later date.
Meanwhile, Craig Burley was re-called to Berti Vogts' Scotland squad. With all due respect to all Scottish trickies, that really doesn't advertise the state of your football side very well now does it?
John Gregory - The truth behind his suspension?
Many rumours have circulated with regard to the subject; Why was Gregory suspended?
The main presumption was that the suspension was concerning Gregory's illegal transfer dealings at Aston Villa, and his general poor performance as manager throughout this term.
But rumours emerged some time ago, stating that Gregory assaulted one of his players in an act of frustration.
And the latest rumour to have arisen (and this speculative story is being endorsed by the club's own sheep!) is that Gregory is part of a consortium aiming to buy the club at the lowest possible price. And if the club are relegated, thus acquiring Division 2 status, the sheep would be available at a cut-price.
This seems tremendously far fetched, but the club are yet-unwilling to so much as comment on this. Having contacted the club myself (unhygienic and dangerous I know...) I was told that "The club are to release an official statement soon, and are not willing to disclose information to random callers".
Although this is little more than a seemingly unrealistic rumour, we shall monitor this story with interest.
And in the meantime, it seems that interim Shepard George Burley shall remain in charge for the final games. Contrary to press reports stating that Burley would leave before the season's close to pursue a job in the Premiership.
Bye-Bye Burley!!!
Having flirted with victory for a couple of games, interim Shepard Geroge Burley ensured that he parted with the sheep on orthodox terms.
In what is likely to be his last game before leaving the club, Burley watched 'his' side crash to a 2-1 at the hands of Milwall. Just over 21,000 sorry folk checked into Meccano for this fixture. Underlining the fast disappearing support for our neighbaa's.
Harris gave Milwall the lead, before Georgie Kinkladze (yes, he still plays football) equalised. 'McCammon' offered the Londoners a second lead on 63 minutes though, leaving the on-looking 'supporters' bleating in despair.
Bring-back John Gregory
Interim Shepard George Burley guided the sheep to a second consecutive victory, thus ending their realistic relegation hopes. Angry D*rby fans are reported to have demanded the return of John Gregory who had indeed guided the sheep to a dangerously low position in the table. Official chairwoman of the 'D*rby County female supporters' group, Baaahbara Davis gave this statement on behalf of the club's support (male and female)
"This club is yet again being dragged out of disrepute, and further towards a respectable status, D*rby County do not belong in a respectable league position, and this club's supporters will not rest until D*rby County is where it is supposed to be - Division 2"
Oh, Valkari and Boertien (Who the F**ckin ell' is he...) got the sheep's goals in a 2-0 win over Wimbledon.
1st win in 10 for shambolic sheep
Interim Shepard George Burley helped to halt the sheep's downward slide, as Norwich were beaten by 2 goals to 1 at Meccano - Goals courtesy of Craig Burley and a Kenton own goal. The win does practically end any realistic chance of the mutton being relegated. But it also ends Norwich's play-off hopes, thus rendering a potential competitor now insignificant. Thanks for doing us a favour then sheep, see you next season.
Oh sorry that's right, Forest are going up.
Silly me.
Burley in, Gregory further out?
D*rby have appointed a new shepard! George Burley has been instated as interim manager whilst John Gregory is suspended, pending an inquiry into serious allegations against him - It has been claimed that Gregory (to put it bluntly) smacked one of his players in the face ahead of a recent sheep clash. This adds to the 'bung' allegations that the FA are investigating against Gregory.
Gregory's assistant Ross McLaren and physio Stuart Walker have also now been suspended by the Pride Park club. However, Billy McEwan (sacked by Gregory) has been re-instated. As the Sheep continue to show Gregory that he has more than outstayed his welcome. A shame really, Gregory was doing quite a good job for them...(for us).
9 without a win for rubbish rams
With Gregory suspended, the Rams were forced to continue their journey to Division 2 under the 'expert' guidance of reserve coach Mark Lillis. The Sheep were comfortably beaten 2 - 0 and are now just 6 points above the relegation zone. And on abysmal form, relegation for the sheep is looking ever more likely. In an after match interview, Lillis stated: "Well, ah, ah, ah didn't change much, cuz' of the wots-it's-name". Wow, I take it all back kids. D*rby are safe after all (sarcasm).
A thoroughly phenomenal Reds display complimented the loudest crowd at the City Ground for many years, as Forest superbly dismissed their arch enemies! Promotion talk was left dubious following arguably Forests two worst performances of the season over the last games, but such questionable showings were nothing more than a far distant nightmare here tonight - as the Reds ran riot! City Ground hero Marlon Harewood opened the scoring, before Darren Huckerby doubled to set the City Ground rocking. And as Forest dominated, Marlon Harewood found time to convert a penalty, following a foul on David Johnson...
Gregory suspended (soon sacked)?
Under-fire Shepard John Gregory has been suspended by his own club D*rby County! The action comes following serious 'bung' allegations regarding Gregory's previous actions in the transfer market. It is strongly suggested that the Sheep are looking for a way to fire Gregory without having to pay off his contract - something that they cannot afford to do!
Groaning Gregory landed with 5 game ban
D*rby Shepard John Gregory was today hit with a 5 game touchline ban, along with a hefty £7,500 fine from the F.A. The punishments were provoked by Gregory's use of foul and abusive language to a 4th official - As his side were being thumped 6-2 by Portsmouth. One thing is for certain, D*rby won't be picking up the £7,500 bill to pay the fine! Unfortunately Gregory will still be permitted to soil the City Ground touchline come Wednesday.
Late heartbreak for shameful Sheep
Calls for the head of John Gregory grew ever louder, as a typically poor D*rby side threw themselves into a genuine battle, in order to avoid being sucked into a late relegation scrap. Bradford earning a 2-1 victory. An early Claus Jorgensen goal was cancelled out by a Lee Morris effort. Only for Jamie Lawrence to seal a late win for the Bantams. Offering Forest fans some joy, after their disappointing display away at Brighton.
Dismal D*rby thrashed by Preston.
A hideous County side fell victim to goals from Alexander, Etuhu, Koumantarakis and Cresswell in a 4-2 defeat. Mr 'I'll play when I feel like it, but even then I won't play well' Ravanelli got the two consolation strikes. D*rby lie 17th in the table. With Forest on-form and pushing for promotion. Life isn't so bad... What better way to open the newly re-vamped D*rby Haters website?

The hideous financial crisis, the unforgivingly temperamental fans, the pressure to romance sheep and the fact that D*rby happen to be based in D*rby have all proved too much for this selection of now former-sheep:

Exclusive to D*rby Haters web. 
Big Match Preview:
With the City Ground undoubtedly full to the brim, there should be an electrifying atmosphere as Forest face the Sheep for the first time at the City Ground For 4 years.
Its been a dismal season for D*rby, following relegation from the Premier League they have failed to leave any form of significant mark on Division 1 whatsoever. With a host of underachieving players (namely Ravanelli and co) earning premiership wages and no signs of re-promotion. Financial problems have hit Pride Park (sorry, Meccano) hard. And several stars have been forcibly released, leaving an already inconsistent and unrefined squad; looking bare and tremendously unthreatening. Several players have been hastily ushered from the youth-system despite them not at all being prepared for first team action.
Whereas conflicting neighbours Forest, are looking stronger than ever! Despite losing David Prutton to Southampton, Forest still boast an enormously strong squad. Strengthened further by the loan-addition of Darren Huckerby. The Reds are indeed very much involved in a prospering play-off battle. Whilst the Sheep face a potential late-battle to avoid being sucked in to a relegation dogfight And whilst this is unlikely, the Sheep finishing anywhere credible seems even more unrealistic!
[Note - And long may it continue!]
So, with the odds stacked firmly against them and their supporters rapidly losing all patience. This is going to be a game that the Sheep are very up for.
But we can all rest assured that no Paul Hart side will allow the motivation of their opposition deter them. Especially as there are Forest fans that will openly state that they wouldnt mind Forest being relegated providing D*rby are dismissed. This is slightly too extreme to be echoed by the majority of Forests support But never-the-less everyone at Forest (on and off the field) knows the importance of this fixture.
They say that for games like these, the form book can be ignored, but surely on this occasion Forest's superior quality shall prevail against a more than beatable D*rby side. Surely on this occasion, the sheep will be shorn.
Visitors comments.
This is a top site. For too long during the mid-to-late 90s,
the Sheep enjoyed reasonable success in the Prem. Its about time they
were brought down to a level where they belong. I have to say that
some of their fans are terrible, really bad losers, especially the ones
I know. John Gregory suits them - hes bent(financially) just like the
club he manages. Come on you mighty Trickies!!!
Colm O'Sullivan (Nottingham Forest supporter).
As Derby County continue to become a poorer and poorer side, and there form and overall quality worsens, I cannot express my joy enough. People call me 'weird' and 'over the top'. As I celerbrate the Sheep's downfall. But why shouldn't we be pleased. For all neutral fans the reasons that this website states on it's home page provide ample reason to strongly dislike the sheep. As for me, I am a Forest fan and so I naturally cannot stand them. But why do people call be over the top and weird? After all, last year when Forest had no money and where offloading their stars to save themselves. Ram fans where only too happy to rub salt into our open wounds. And slag us off. Well now they are down the table and bankrupt! It's our turn to celerbrate!!!!
Another thing I must comment on is east midlands radio stations! Why are they so supportive to Derby County????? And the Foxes a little further down the motorway! Last year when Forest had no cash local radio stations couldn't give a stuff. And yet, a few weeks back when the Derby and Lecister finance problems came to their climax. I tuned in to Graham Mack at 106 Century fm (a man I usually respect and enjoy listening to) to find him starting a campaign to save them!!!!!!!!!!! To rub salt in the wound he later made the comment: "Oh yeah, I like Derby. I think they should have won the other week against Forest. They dominated the entire match"! Now that is not only the final straw for any reds fan or Derby Hater, but 'they dominated the entire match' now thats a load of b*llocks. If it wasn't for that b*stard linesman Forest would have shorn the sheep and won. I'll bet he was a sheep shagger himself. I wish for once that the general public would dislike Derby a bit more. Thay get so much f*cking respect from everyone. It really winds me up at times, and I am glad that this website is there to calm me down. Cheers, hope this is posted. Tara.

Ah, what a strange world we do live in, and what a strange game football is! As a loyal Man Utd suppoter, and a season ticket holder! I left maine road last week feeling somewhat frustrated, and quite betrayed. As I saw, the so called biggest and best club in the world crumble to their arch enemies, with a truly abysmal performance. And as I walked home (almost contemplating suicide). It dawned upon me, that football is not a game any more! It is a way of life. Achievment (or lack of it) for a football club, can make the difference between a supporter having a good life or a poor one. The simple in-ability of a group of men running around on a field can ruin someones life! In my opinion as much as I love the sport, I have to say the extravagant wages and celebrity profile of all football stars is just too much. It will eventually ruin it. Each game simply means TOO much to be able to enjoy it! What does everyone else think?
I look forward to your forum opening guys! Then we can discuss things to an even greater standard.
I love the site, highly amusing and very true! (particularly on the home page). I found your site by accident when absent mindedly surfing the web. But I love it now - Good stuff! I have become a Derby Hater!!!
P.S Your site URL is posted on another website! When looking for a Man City hater site, i found one via geocites! And your site is advertised there! I can't say as thats a good thing though, the site is very poor, even tho I should naturally like it, I find it hard to, It's very immature and un-interlectual. You should make your own City haters site to show that clown how it's done! Richard Kielty (Manchester United supporter)
Great site, enjoyable throughout. Though being a Man City fan
i am digusted at Derby's misuse of the excellent playmaker who goes by
the name of Kinkladze. During his time at city he helped us to many
victories and kept us in the premiership then when we got relagated
Frank Clarks hatred for the player drove him away and caused us the
hertbreaking descent down to Division 2! (now thats where you learn who
the true fans are!) He went to Ajax and then for some reason went to
Derby... Flipping derby! So kinkladze, leave derby and go for pastures
new!
Also today is 9th November 2002, a day that will live on for infamy,
for today at 2:05pm Manchester City beat Manchester United for the
first time since '89 (5-1 in the maine road massacre) and both Nevilles
were made fools of! a 3-1 win with goals from Anelka and Goater(2),
Goaters 99th and 100th goal for Manchester City! Get bent United
fans... get well and truly bent! Diago Foreskin, ruud Van P*sshitrool,
and Ole f**king shit back! Go TO H*LL!
P.S o yeah... SHIT ON THE DERBY! SHIT ON THE DERBY TODAY
Phil Slater (obviously a Manchester City supporter)
As Forest march on. Derby's form worsens. Lovin it!! I am however disgusted in a certain linesman that deprieved us of what would have been a joyful victory over the sheep shaggers the other week. How much did they pay him??? Ah, well, wait untill next time. WE'RE GONNA BRING OUT THE MINT SAUCE AND EAT THE SHEEP ALIVE!!!
Clive (Nottingham Forest supporter)
Many of your mailers seem quite intent on discussing the rush to take the title, however I feel that the issue is more important when regarding the rush to avoid relegation. I am a concerned Aston Villa supporter, busily hating Derby after they stole our manager. And I feel that this genuinely could be the year that we go down. Graham taylor has sold our quality, naturally gifted stars and replaced them with division 1 filth. I honestly believe that he is predicting relegation and has already started building a Nationwide 1 side! Our play is in consisitent and scrappy, there is NO ambition, and I cannot believe that deadly doug is putting up with this. I know the 2 are good friends but still. lets put the future of the club first here. I think that this is this seasons bottom 4:
17. Villa 18. B*rimingham 19.Sunderland 20. Bolton. + It may be my heart speaking when I say brum 18th and us 17th. It could go either way! I'd like other viewers to email with their opinions on top and bottom 3.
P.S maybe you should start a graham taylor haters. com, no offence but it could be more popular!!!
Riece Edwards (A concerend Aston Villa supporter)
So, 4 lost in a row for the Gooners! Mr Wenger must be regretting that 'we'll never be beaten' line. Are they going through what UTD went through last season? I personally do not think so, Its just a blip, once they get the monkey of critisism off their backs. It should be o.k, they will still win the title. Liverpool dont have the overall stamina, or squad depth. Man Utd still lack a consistent defender and keeper and everyone is always just waiting for them to slip up. Never a good thing! My predictions for the top 6 are as follows: 1:Arsenal 2.Man Ud 3.Liverpool 4.Middlesboro 5.Chelsea 6.Newcastle.
A bit controversial and optamistic yes, but its what I think. What does everyone else Think
I would like to know.
Paul (a 'fan of football in general' he says)
I am emailing in response to 'Pauls' remarks at what he thinks
the top 6 will be. A little eccentric I think. However I do agree with
his top 3, but not in that order. Arsenal have clearly shot it, they
are too complacent and don't seem to have that amazing sense of 'pride
and unbeatable strength' about them. Thats why I think pool will take
the title, I honestly believe that they do have the depth in squad, and
the character to go all the way, they don't have as good a squad as
Arsenal or Man U, but they are not marred with suspensions and
injuries. As for the spaces that fill in 3-6. well I think we may see a
change for once, here are my thoughts for the top 6:
1.L'pool 2.Arsenal 3.ManU 4.N'castle 5.M'boro 6.Chelsea. what does
everyone else think?
Jimmy (Aston Villa supporter)
This is the best website ever!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well done for supplyin such a top website!!!! keep it up!
Craig Brown (Arsenal supporter)
Ha Ha, Derby have no money or future, they are going bust along with the Foxes. Good ridance to bad scum I say. (and we should have beaten them at Pride Park the other week - they had better wait untill they come to the City Ground! If they still have a squad by then)
Lee (Nottingham Forest supporter)
I am a passionate Totenham fan, but I hate Derby (naturally). Good website, keep it up.
Karl (Totenham Hotspur supporter)
I think it is a good thing that Derby are without money, I hope they do very nearly go bust, maybe they will be relegated in the process! However in response to another emailer of yours, yes it would be a shame if the were to go fully bust, who would we have to hate? Good site, looks good considering it was obviously done on the cheap!!
Ryan Paul (Nottingham Forest supporter)
