‘It’s like Christmas has come early with Akil speaking to us about his journey - it has made me want to go into refereeing’ Akil Howson spent time at Keyham Lodge School, engaging with pupils and sharing his journey through refereeing. From trying on referee kit to refereeing a friendly game and answering questions about life in the Premier League, pupils were able to see refereeing up close and learn more about the pathway 💪

At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will remember them. #RemembranceSunday

All at Derby County are deeply saddened by the passing of Billy Vigar. Billy spent the second half of the 2022/23 season with the Academy on loan from Arsenal, making several appearances for the Under-21s. The thoughts of everyone at the club are with his family and friends at this incredibly difficult time.
