Description

Jim Smith's Derby County is a story of transformation and success, as told by those who were part of it. In the summer of 1995, Smith took charge of a club struggling to balance the books, but alongside Steve McClaren, he oversaw a remarkable turnaround. The team went on to achieve unprecedented success, reaching new heights in English football and even coming close to European competition. This book is a unique insight into the Derby County side of the 1990s, with exclusive interviews from players, coaching staff, friends, and supporters. The legendary man-manager, Jim Smith, is also revealed in depth, both on and off the pitch. With the voices of those who knew him best, this is a fascinating look at one of the most remarkable periods in Derby County's history. From the players who formed the core of the team to those who supported them, the stories and insights gathered in this book offer a fresh perspective on a remarkable period in English football.
