Pre-season
Clough entered into the 2010–11 season looking to reinforce the squad that had been so badly afflicted by injuries the previous campaign. Of those at the club, new one-year contracts were given to goalkeepers Saul Deeney and Ross Atkins[11] and Russell Anderson signed a new two-year deal.[12] Clough also stated a desire to retain the services of loanees
The first confirmed signing of the summer was out of contract Doncaster Rovers left back Gareth Roberts, who agreed a two-year deal to join the club on the expiration of his Doncaster contract on 1 July 2010.[21] A long-standing interest in Crewe Alexandra's John Brayford seemed to have reached its conclusion with reports that the club had agreed a deal for £400,000 plus add-ons,[22] though this was denied by Crewe boss Dario Gradi.[23] Rumours resurfaced two weeks later, suggesting Derby were planning a £1m joint bid for Brayford and teammate James Bailey, who was seen as a long-term replacement for Robbie Savage.[24] Crewe confirmed that an offer for the pair had been accepted on 18 May 2010.[25] The deal was finalised on 19 May 2010 for an undisclosed fee[26] with the deal believed to total an initial £800k, rising to over £1m with add ons and a 15% sell on clause[27][28] The club announced it had agreed a deal to sign ADO Den Haag utility player Danny Buijs once the Dutch football season had finished,[29] though they later pulled out of the deal.[30]
Of those leaving the club, it was announced that the contracts of first team players Jay McEveley, Gary Teale, Lee Hendrie, Lewis Price and Mark Dudley, as well as reserve team players Jermaine Johnson, Henrik Ojamaa and Alex Forde, would not be renewed.[45][46] Paul Connolly was the first under contract player to leave the club, joining Championship rivals Leeds United on a 3-year deal.[47] Leeds, alongside

Financially, the club was revealed to have slashed almost 60% off of its agent's fees for the 2009–10 season in comparison to 2008–09 campaign. They spent £434,350, the ninth highest sum in the division, against the £1 million plus spent the previous year. The fees covered the 60 transactions, the highest in the country, the club committed to over the period between 1 July 2009, and 30 June 2010, which covered 22 loanees, 17 new registrations, 12 cancelled contracts and 9 updated contracts.[78]

Results on the pitch did not improve, however, as defeats to Sheffield United and Hull City saw the club fall into the bottom three of the division for the first time under Clough's managerial reign, before a 1–1 draw at Barnsley, in which Dean Leacock scored his first professional goal to open the scoring, saw the club escape the relegation zone while extending its winless run to 7 matches in all competitions. The run was ended with a 5–0 thrashing of Crystal Palace on 25 September 2010. Alberto Bueno, who earned a place in the Football League Championship Team of the Week[91] and Shefki Kuqi both scored their first goals for the club as Derby recorded their biggest league win since they beat Tranmere Rovers by the same scoreline on 17 April 1995. Kris Commons also scored in the Palace rout and took his tally to five with a double in a 3–1 win over Middlesbrough three days later, also missing a penalty, as Derby claimed their first consecutive victories of the season and lifted themselves up to 15th with 11 points from their first 9 games.
Rumours again surfaced regarding the club's financial position and from the financial position of investor Jeff Martinovich, though CEO Tom Glick dismissed Martinovich as "a smaller investor who is not on the board, not involved in the operations of the football club and whatever troubles he has had they have not impacted on the bigger picture."

November opened with a fifth straight home win of the campaign, when Portsmouth were beaten 2–0 in front of the Sky Sports cameras and a season record crowd of 29,086. The win lifted Derby into 4th in the table with the further boost of the return of Miles Addison for his first appearance in 10 months.[107] Dean Moxey also earned a place in the Championship Team of the Week.[108] The result was followed up with a third straight victory; 2–0 at Ipswich Town, which ended a run of seven straight defeats at Portman Road stretching back to 2002, as Kris Commons took his season tally to nine with a second-half brace. A 2–0 defeat at Leicester City was followed by a 3–2 win over Scunthorpe United, despite being reduced to 10-man after Gareth Roberts became the first Derby player of the season to be sent off. The victory was the club's sixth consecutive home win, with 20 goals scored in the process, setting a record at Pride Park and was the club's best run of home form for over 15 years.[109] It also saw Robbie Savage and Kris Commons named in the division's Team of the Week.[110] The month ended with a 2–1 defeat away to Burnley, though Savage was again named in the team of the Week.[111]
In terms of playing staff, Stephen Bywater and Saul Deeney returned to availability after six weeks out, though Frank Fielding's loan from Blackburn Rovers was still extended after his seven appearances had reaped three clean sheet and 15 points from a possible 21.[112] Luke Moore's loan was also extended to a third and final month.[113] The return of Deeney and Bywater took Derby's available goalkeepers to four, meaning Ross Atkins was able to return to Tamworth on loan, with James Severn returning to Derby after six appearances for the non-league outfit.[114] The club was also linked with a move for Bryne striker Geir André Herrem.[115] It was revealed that Blackpool intended to complete a deal for on-loan Luke Varney, who had notched four goals in his loan spell at the Premier League team.[116] Blackpool, manager Ian Holloway claimed that Blackpool had a "massive clause" in the loan deal which meant they could sign Varney for just £250k in the January 2011 transfer window, though Derby denied this saying Varney could be sold to any club and that no deal is in place with Blackpool.[117] This alerted West Bromwich Albion to the striker's availability.[118]

The return of
January
The Rams started 2011 with a New Year's Day fixture away to Preston North End, just as they had opened 2007 in the 2006–07 promotion campaign. Clough made five changes to the side humiliated at Nottingham Forest just three days before. Dean Leacock, heavily criticised as "offering nothing"[120] the previous game, was dropped to the bench, and Stephen Pearson, Conor Doyle and a returning Robbie Savage introduced into the midfield. Two enforced changes came with Gareth Roberts replacing the suspended Dean Moxey and Chris Porter making his first start of the league campaign as a replacement for Luke Moore, who returned to W.B.A. on the completion of his three-month loan.[125] In the event, the changes earned Derby a first win in 6 as a Porter double sealed a 2–1 win at the division's bottom club. The result was followed by a 0–0 home draw with Millwall, Clough's 100th match in charge. The return of just seven points from the last nine fixtures was beginning to affect attendances, with just 24,239 attending the Millwall draw, the lowest attendance for a league match at Pride Park Stadium for almost four years, when just 23,122 attended an evening kick-off victory against Burnley on Tuesday 30 January. It was the third time in the 2010–11 campaign that attendances had dipped below 25,000 for a league fixture, something which had previously nor occurred since the said fixture against Burnley. The numbers, plus the nature of the support, led captain Robbie Savage to criticise the club's support, saying "What you want them to do when we are not playing well is get behind us. It's as if they're waiting for a mistake to get on our backs."[126] However, the club's slight revival was undermined by a giant killing at the hands of non-league Crawley in the FA Cup third round, described by reporters as one of the "biggest FA Cup shocks of all time"[127] and others as the most "humiliating result in Derby County's history".[128] The result saw Clough's job at the club reportedly come under threat[129] as he issued an apology to the club's supporters,[130] many of whom responded with demands for his dismissal[131] Derby's Chief Executive Tom Glick answered fan's concerns by reiterating the club's support for Clough, saying "Nigel is absolutely our guy. We have been clear about that continuously"[132] and promising investment in the playing staff in the current transfer window. The last result of the month saw Derby crash 1–0 at home to Nottingham Forest in front of a season-high crowd of 33,010. It was their first loss to their rivals at the Pride Park Stadium.
Going into the January transfer window, Clough stated his desire to add three players, saying "in an absolute ideal world a defender, a midfielder and a forward would bolster the squad at the moment."
In terms of departures, two players left for transfer fees. Contract-rebel

With the January exits of Kris Commons and Dean Moxey, coupled with the suspension of Dean Leacock, Clough made four changes from the defeat by Nottingham Forest for a home visit from Ipswich Town but the result remained the same – despite Alberto Bueno opening the scoring in the seventh minute, with his first goal in four months, Ipswich claimed a 2–1 victory at Pride Park to make it four consecutive home defeats for Derby. A season low of just 23,159 attended the game, and protests came from supporters over the perceived lack of investment from the board in the form of a "Sack the Board" banner unfurled prior to kick-off, a spectator streaking on the pitch during the second half, the booing off of the players at full-time and post-game protests by the main entrance to Pride Park, attended by some 2,000 supporters.[153] There was also pressure on Clough, who was criticised by PFA Chief Gordon Taylor after comments he made about Tomasz Cwyka following a 1–1 draw at Portsmouth. Of Cywka, Clough said "He's an extremely inexperienced and not very bright footballer ... he can go back to Wigan or wherever he came from – I'm not really bothered – until he learns the game." This led Taylor to state that "It cannot be appropriate to criticise your team in such a way in public. We'll sort things out ... otherwise it looks an untenable situation."[154] Home defeats to Leicester City and Hull City and a 0–0 draw at Scunthorpe United stretched the club's winless run to eight games, with just one from the last fourteen, before a 1–0 away win at relegation rivals Sheffield United took the club 8 points clear of relegation with 13 games to play. The win saw Championship Team of the Week performances from John Brayford and goalscorer Theo Robinson.[155]

Derby went into a their re-arranged home fixture against Doncaster Rovers with renewed confidence following their victory at Sheffield United, but turned out a performance described as captain Robbie Savage as "absolute disgrace"[171] as they crashed to a 3–1 defeat. The crowd booed the players at full-time and accorded manager Nigel Clough with chants of "You don't know what you're doing" following the substitution of Theo Robinson. Clough responded that "I thought they (the fans) should have booed a little bit louder" and indicated he had no issues with the criticism of his substitution, admitting "They are entitled to do that."[172] The result was followed with five points from the next four games, as a win over 2nd placed Swansea City and draws with Barnsley and Crystal Palace left the club 9 points clear of relegation, with nine to play, going into the international break. Jamie Ward, who hit a stunning 35-yard strike in the 2–2 draw at Crystal Palace, was named in the Championship Team of the Week for 19/20 March.[173]
The club was active in the emergency loan market, letting
Going into the final two months of the season, the board made several announcements regarding its intentions for the 2011–12 campaign. Regarding season tickets, the club announced its early-bird initiative would be extended until 15 May to ensure supporters knew which division the club would be in the following campaign and also offered season ticket holders a money-back guarantee if they are upset about the club's transfer activity during the close season, Tom Glick saying "It's about holding us to account and supporters judging us by our actions."[181] Glick also stated his disappointment with the lack of progress made during the game, stating there would be extra investment to bring in several "established" Championship "name" players to excite the support and his expectation that the club would at least occupy a top six position in the upcoming campaign.[182] The club also published its accounts up to May 2010, showing a loss of £2.16m, compared to a loss of £14.93m for the previous 12 months. The figures showed the club's debt reduced from £22.3m to £19.1m, with Glick stating it currently stood at £15m after season ticket income was used to pay back part of the sum in June 2010. Turnover was marginally down £1.5m from £31.3m to £29.8m, mainly as a result of the club's 2008–09 domestic cup success (when it reached the League Cup semi finals and the FA Cup 5th Round) was not repeated. The wage bill for players was also reduced from £15.5m to £10.5m – and is said to currently stand at just over £9m after the departure of high-earners Rob Hulse and Kris Commons.[181]
