Included in the 32-page pre-season issue of The Ram is:

* Exclusive interview with Craig Forsyth

* The thoughts of Paul Warne on Craig Forsyth and pre-season so far

* Comments from former managers Nigel Clough, Steve McClaren and Wayne Rooney on Craig Forsyth

* A review of Derby County’s 2023/24 Pre-Season so far

* A look at the tests that both Stoke City and Sheffield United will pose in detail

* The latest Derby County news and much more!

The pre-season edition of The Ram will be available in-and-around Pride Park Stadium for both matches for £3 - with £1 from each issue being donated to the Me & Dee charity, which is Craig Forsyth’s designated charity for his Testimonial.

Subscribe To The Ram For The 2023/24 Season

We all know supporters are itching to return to their seats at Pride Park Stadium for Derby County’s 2023/24 campaign, and there is no more fitting accompaniment to a matchday than the club’s official programme.

The universally adored ‘The Ram’ is back once again to track Paul Warne’s side’s progress throughout what promises to be another exciting League One campaign.

Rammed with exclusive content and features, including insights from both Head Coach Warne and the dressing room, in-depth player interviews, opposition analysis, Derby County Women, an Academy round-up and historical dives, issues will be available for sale around the stadium - as always - with all sellers armed with contactless payments units.

If you can’t make every matchday this season though you can still make sure you keep your treasured collection up to date with a full season subscription.

The package covers our 23 home League One fixtures, starting with Wigan Athletic’s visit on Saturday 5th August, and subscribers will also receive the pre-season edition for the games against Stoke City and Sheffield United, meaning this is the cheapest way of staying up to date with the Rams if you can’t make every match.

The treasured A5-size 52-page perfect-bound issues will be produced to a schedule that allows for a first-class mail out on the Friday before a weekend fixture, with midweek editions despatched on the day of the game, but this is not a pre-event delivery service.

The price to reserve this collection of memorabilia is £120, including post and packaging, or you can spread the cost by signing up to a half-season subscription for £64 until 2024 for the first 12 games.

You can pre-order now from the club’s official publishing partners Ignition Sports Media by visiting: ignitionsportsmedia.com/products/copy-of-derby-county-full-season-subscription-2023-24.

The subscriptions DO NOT include any additional domestic cup or play-off matches, which must be purchased separately.
