Did Derby just score when a Villa player was down injured?

 

[RoboCod]

Haha, no we imploded and bottled it. I wouldn’t give your shower much credit fella. Every dog has its day and you have got what you deserved here. All the loanees will be gone next season too

Sure, 4 goals at Elland Rd after going down was rubbish, you bottled it and handed it us...... Leeds fans

 

[Snax]

Villa can see this out by hoofing it. Derby don't have the fluency

We got beat by ten men Wigan a couple of weeks before, hardly surprising is it. Cheer up lad

 

[Andybtsn]

@RoboCod hard luck fella. See you next season, you know the Championship is the best league x

 

[el_dazza]

We're back

 

[B&W]

Yesss

 

[RoboCod]

If only Derby could play for a full 90mins rather than a paltry 20

Well deserved Villa.

Good last 15mins but otherwise Derby will have regrets about how they played the majority of the match I think. I think Villa were the better team to make the move up anyway.

That was horrible to watch from 70 minutes onwards. Jack should have sealed it at 2-0 but we just about hung on. Need big changes if we want to survive the Premier League.

£170m to blow. Just don't do a Fulham

There's an actual trophy just for winning promotion? Wow

 

[toshj]

Kerching - another £1.5m coming our way as part of the Hogan to Villa transfer! Very pleased for Dean Smith and hope he does well next season.

 

[Kerplunk]

At least Derby can go and celebrate another year in the Championship!

The trophy is for winning the playoffs, and that's been the case for over 25 years. Possibly since the playoffs were introduced, but my memory doesn't go back that far.

cracking result for the Villa

I honestly didn't realise. Every play off final I've watched I've turned it off before ever seeing a trophy come out.

It just seems a bit funny that's all. "Here's a trophy for not quite being good enough to come first or second".

You can't have a Wembley final with no trophy involved! Otherwise you might as well hold the L2 game at Loftus Road...
