dcfc.co.uk monitors the progress of Derby County's out-on-loan players after the weekend's matches.

Lee Croft, Huddersfield Town

Lee made his debut for the Terriers at the fourth time of asking in their 4-2 defeat at Peterborough United on Saturday. He was introduced into the action with twenty minutes to go, but was powerless to stop Lee Clark's men suffering their first defeat of the season in League One. He did set up a late chance for fellow loanee Joe Garner, but he blazed over. Lee could be in line for his first start for Huddersfield in the Carling Cup on Wednesday at Everton.

Ross Atkins, Tamworth

Ross played the full 90 minutes between the posts for Tamworth as they suffered their first defeat of the season at AFC Wimbledon in the Blue Square Premier. The home side were 3-0 winners on Saturday, but it could have been more had it not been for an excellent display by the England youth international. Tamworth return to action with a home game against Cambridge United on Tuesday evening.

Greg Mills, AFC Telford United

Greg helped AFC Telford to a third straight win in the Blue Square North with a 5-0 hammering of Gainsborough Trinity on Saturday. Mills scored Telford's second and he added a further assist as Andy Sinton's men maintained their impressive start to the season. Gloucester City are Telford's opponents on Tuesday as they look to make if four from four.

Graham Kelly, Bray Wanderers

Graham is still out with a hamstring injury he picked up a month ago, and he missed their 4-1 defeat to Shamrock Rovers on Friday evening. Bray are still currently bottom of the Irish Premier League and Kelly has missed their last five matches.
