The 2010–11 season will be Derby County's 112th season in the Football League. It is their 43rd season in the second division of English football and their third consecutive season in the second tier following the previous campaign. The club entered the season with odds of 25/1 for the title, the same as the previous year, 6-1 to be promoted and 8-1 to be relegated.[1]

Team kit

On 1 May 2010 the club announced that website buymobiles.net would be the club's shirt sponsor for the next three years, replacing the two-year association with previous sponsor Bombardier who instead became an "official partner" of the club. The deal was described as the "largest commercial deal in Derby County's history"[2], with sources stating it to be worth around £2m in total.[3] buymobiles already had previous association with the club as it first appeared on the back of the club shirts during the 2004/05 play-off matches against Preston North End and had acted as "Season Presenting Sponsor" during the 2008/09 campaign.[2] The new home kit for the 2010/11 season was revealed at 6pm on July 16, 2010, the day before the club's first pre-season friendly, at a specially-arranged Catwalk Show at Pride Park Stadium, with Nigel Clough and his Derby County first team squad all in attendance.[4] It was again manufactured by adidas. The away kit was revealed at half-time in a pre-season friendly against Stoke City.[4]

Pre-season

Clough entered into the 2010-11 season looking to reinforce the squad that had been so badly afflicted by injuries the previous campaign. Of those at the club, new one-year contracts were given to goalkeepers Saul Deeney and Ross Atkins[5] and Russell Anderson signed a new two-year deal.[6] Clough also stated a desire to retain the services of loanees Tomasz Cywka and Michael Tonge for the new campaign.[7] Cywka agreed a deal to sign on a free transfer from Wigan Athletic on May 25, 2010[8] but interest in Tonge was curtailed when Stoke City announced he was for sale, pricing Derby out of a move and forcing them to look elsewhere.[9][10] Injuries once again played a part in Derby's preparations, however, as the continuing absence of former Young Player of the Year Miles Addison, who was ruled out for the season after successfully undergoing foot surgery the previous March,[11][12] was joined by that of Steve Davies, who ruptured cruciate ligaments, ruling him out for the opening six months of the season.[13] Prior to the start of Derby's pre-season friendly fixtures, it was announced Robbie Savage would remain as Captain, with Shaun Barker replacing Addison as Vice Captain and Stephen Bywater being third in line.[14]

The first confirmed signing of the summer was out of contract Doncaster Rovers left back Gareth Roberts, who agreed a 2-year deal to join the club on the expiration of his Doncaster contract on 1 July 2010.[15] A long standing interest in Crewe Alexandra's John Brayford seemed to have reached its conclusion with reports that the club had agreed a deal for £400,000 plus add-ons,[16] though this was denied by Crewe boss Dario Gradi.[17] Rumours resurfaced two weeks later, suggesting Derby were planning a £1m joint bid for Brayford and teammate James Bailey, who was seen as a long term replacement for Robbie Savage.[18] Crewe confirmed that an offer for the pair had been accepted on May 18, 2010.[19] The deal was finalised on 19 May 2010 for an undisclosed fee[20] with the deal believed to total an initial £800k, rising to over £1m with add ons and a 15% sell on clause[21][22] The club announced it had agreed a deal to sign ADO Den Haag utility player Danny Buijs once the Dutch football season had finished.[23] though they later pulled out of the deal.[24] Dave Martin, who had had a successful loan spell with the club the previous campaign, formally completed his free transfer to the club following the completion of his contract with Millwall on June 1, 2010, signing a two-year deal.[25] After sealing five signings within a month of the end of the 2010/11 season, the club the playing staff was "shaping up more for how we would like it"[26] though there was a continued hunt for a new forward, with West Bromwich Albion's Simon Cox, Everton's James Vaughan, Scunthorpe United's Gary Hooper and Sheffield United's Billy Sharp all on the club's radar,[10][27] though a move for Hooper was stalled by the size of the fee Scunthorpe United wanted for the striker.[28] The club also tied down five of its academy squad to professional deals on 8 July 2010, with goalkeeper James Severn, defender Kallum Keane, midfielders Jeff Hendrick and Graham Kelly and attacker Ryan Connolly all signing deals to become part of Nigel Clough's first team squad.[29] Kelly was sent out on loan to League of Ireland Premier Division side Bray Wanderers the next day.[30] The club also took on several trialists with Ilkeston Town's Amari Morgan-Smith, American Conor Doyle, Woking striker Joel Ledgister and Austrailian duo Marc Hatvani and Courtney Chipperfield taking part in the club's pre-season fixtures.[31][32]

Of those leaving the club, it was announced that the contracts of first team players Jay McEveley, Gary Teale, Lee Hendrie, Lewis Price and Mark Dudley, as well as reserve team players Jermaine Johnson, Henrik Ojamaa and Alex Forde, would not be renewed.[33][34] Paul Connolly was the first under contract player to leave the club, joining Championship rivals Leeds United on a 3-year deal.[35] Leeds, alongside Q.P.R. and Burnley, also expressed an interest in top scorer Rob Hulse, who entered into the final year of his contract and was valued at £1.5m by the club.[36] Derby coach Gary Crosby stated, "As much as we'd like to keep Rob, financially, we will maybe look to sell him"[37] though CEO Tom Glick later dismissed any financial need to sell the striker.[38] He was later linked with a £1m move to newly promoted Premier League side Blackpool, though his rumoured £600,000 yearly wage was suggested to be a stumbling block.[39] Newly-capped Irish international Paul Green was the subject of interest, this time from Celtic, though Derby moved quickly to dismiss any talk of a sale, describing Green as "untouchable."[40] A temporary exit came when Lee Croft, who had made just one appearance in the last 8 months at the club, moved on a six month loan deal to Football League One side Huddersfield Town.[41]

The club announced that Season ticket sales matched those of the previous campaign, with 2,000 season ticket sales on Friday 16 April 2010 being "one of the single busiest days in the Ticket Office's history."[42] By close of the club's Early Bird offer (which froze 2010/11 Season Tickets at 2009/10 prices) on April 18, 2010, the club had sold 17,357 season tickets, 471 ahead of sales at the same point the previous summer, and claimed they had received calls from "several hundred" supporters who had been prevented from purchasing by the events of the eruption of Eyjafjallajökull.[43] It was also revealed that the club's CEO, Tom Glick, had been elected to The Football League Board.[44]
