No disrespect Tessa, you may be one of Britains leading female icons but there will be strictly no favours on Saturday as your boys take one helluva opening day beating waltzing to the top of the league in the process.

Chris and the boys are raring to go after an encouraging pre-season and with high profile signings still to come will firmly be of the belief we can go one better than last seasons heartbreaking 3rd place finish.

With a noisy and boisterous travelling audience of 1,100 from Deepest Sussex lets raise the roof at the Ipro and show the team we mean business this season and together we czan achieve our dreams.

I've been busting my balls all last season wondering why it's "FC Derby" "FC Fulham" etc. I don't find it as "hilarious"as that shitty sky programme on Saturday mornings reference to "Ball Mouth" or Boston as some sort of American team however it's pretty close

Julian Draxler - Some noddy Twitter account started that one. Surely the first rule of starting a rumour should be to make it in some way plausible, unlike this one....

Derby have been noticeably quiet in the transfer window this summer, expect them to make a couple of high profile signings before it slams shut at the end of the month, fortunately we are playing them first which may be the perfect time to play them.

I'm not convinced we will - The signings of Butterfield and Johnson to cover Hughes and Bryson last season have left the midfield, at least , looking a little bloated. The return of Hughes, Bryson and Forsyth is a big boon and then only George Thorne is missing. I suspect there will be a new striker at some point.

Broadly though, I think you are playing us at the best time - Pearson is not really going to know what to expect from his new team, I'm not sure the fans do either.

The end of the season is usually a good time to play them too.

Draxler to DERBY? For crying out laugh! Sure, let's start a shitty rumour about sightings of Ronaldo in Lancing

I bet she's absolutely bouncing for the start of the new season and poor Vernon has got to watch League One football.
