Pride Before the Fall – How Derby County went from Play-off Final to Near Extinction

A cautionary tale which tells of the scarcely-believable fall of Derby County FC between the years of 2019 and 2022. After narrowly missing out on promotion to the Premier League, the Rams seemed like a club on the rise following the arrival of Phillip Cocu as manager and Wayne Rooney as player-coach, but instead went down a path of EFL charges and legal battles, administration, points deductions, relegation and a seemingly endless stream of financial woes which almost led to the end of the club.
