3/1 To Win
See what the players, fans and the media had to say after Derby County’s tense 1-1 against Sheffield United in dcfc.co.uk’s Social Snapshot.
Matej Vydra’s first half penalty was cancelled out by Leon Clarke’s header after the break as the points were shared at Pride Park Stadium, and we look back at the best reaction from the New Year’s Day football…
Players’ Take
Tough game today. Can be a little disappointed not to hold on to a lead but Sheff Utd were the better side and more than value for their point. Bigger picture- 8 points from 4 games in 10 days. Rest up and be ready for a little trip to Old Trafford #DCFC #DCFCFans 🐑 pic.twitter.com/8bpasblrf4

Tough game against a well drilled, physical team. We weren’t at our best today but 8points from 4games in 10days isn’t the worst. Happy new year, hopefully it’s a special one 🤙🏾🐑 pic.twitter.com/Ss37cJZPyQ

Spirits are still high after the draw…
Definitely a point gained today rather than 2 dropped, came through a tough Christmas period unbeaten. Successful teams pick up points when they have an off day remember that Rams fans. 🐑🐑🐑 #dcfc #dcfcfans #DCFCvSUFC

Take that. We looked spent towards the end, it’s been a gruelling festive fixture schedule. Averaged 2ppg, still 2nd (for now), and Cardiff lost. Happy New Year! #dcfcfans #dcfc

The Rams’ next home game is sure to be a cracker…
Just realised Derby's next home game is against Bristol on January 19th. What a game that's going to be! #dcfcfans
