Not a good week, even by Derby County's standards at present. Giles Barnes is the latest player to have a season ending injury and one that could take a while to get right. Something both Giles and the club could have done without.

His injury occurred during training and is now diagnosed as Crutiate ligament damage. His season is over and maybe his dream of a transfer to a top club, or even West Ham.

You can even have the shirt of the players back if you have the money to bid in the Derby County FC auction. You the fans have to submit your highest bid for one of the 16 squad shirts worn next Saturday against Manchester United.

The highest bidder will get his or her choice of match worn shirt and then going down the bidders until the 16th highest bid.

The idea is said to be very popular in the MLS in America and it is hoped that the idea takes on over here. Charities will benefit from a proportion of the amount raised from the sale. All ten of the Rams designated charities will get a cut of the money....
