Notes

[edit]
  1. ^ The EFL Cup was founded in 1961.
  2. ^ Goals in all competitions (English Football League or Premier League, FA Cup, EFL Cup, EFL Trophy, Charity Shield and European) are counted.
  3. ^ At the beginning of the 1892–93 season, the Football League expanded to include a second division; the existing division (which Derby were playing in) was renamed the First Division.
  4. ^ Derby qualified for the Fairs Cup, but were banned from competing due to financial irregularities.
  5. ^ At the beginning of the 1981–82 season, the Football League changed the points system from two to three points for a win.
  6. ^ At the beginning of the 1958–59 season, the Football League's Third Division (North) and Third Division (South) were replaced by a national Third Division and a national Fourth Division; therefore, Derby competed in the national Third Division upon relegation in 1984.
  7. ^ a b Lowest League finish.
  8. ^ Had English clubs not been banned from competing in European competition, Derby would have taken part in the UEFA Cup in the 1989–90 season.
  9. ^ At the beginning of the 1992–93 season, the clubs in the Football League First Division broke away to form the FA Premier League; as a result, the Football League's three remaining divisions were renamed: the Second Division (which Derby were playing in) became the First Division, the Third Division became the Second Division and the Fourth Division became the Third Division.
  10. ^ At the beginning of the 2004–05 season, the Football League renamed its divisions: the First Division (which Derby were playing in) became The Championship, the Second Division became League One and the Third Division became League Two.
  11. ^ Promoted via the play-offs.
  12. ^ Derby were deducted 21 points, 12 for entering administration & 9 for breaking EFL accountancy rules.
