Derby County’s official matchday programme, The Ram, will officially make its return on Saturday when Oxford United head to Pride Park Stadium.
Derby will begin life in Sky Bet League One with a tough assignment against Karl Robinson’s side on home turf (3pm kick-off).
And what better way to savour the spine-tingling atmosphere once again than with a treasured copy of ‘The Ram’ in hand?
The club has teamed up with Ignition Publications to bring the programme back for the first time since the 2019/20 season and there is no more fitting accompaniment to a matchday than The Ram, which is packed with exclusive interviews, content, statistics and insight.
The A5-size 52-page perfect-bound editions will be available to purchase around the ground for £3, but you can also reserve every league edition from the campaign via a seasonal subscription with Ignition Publications, with details available below.
The first edition of the new era, following Clowes Developments (UK) Ltd’s purchase of the club in early July, includes an exclusive interview with David Clowes to discuss the takeover, his passion for the Rams and his desire to bring stability back to Derby.
This weekend’s edition of The Ram includes:
* David Clowes’ first interview since Clowes Developments (UK) Ltd took charge of the club
* Liam Rosenior’s first programme notes as Interim Manager
* Skipper Curtis Davies discusses taking on the armband and offers his views on the season ahead
* Derby’s busy summer in focus, on and off the field
* A look at some of the most memorable moments in the first 25 years of Pride Park Stadium
* A view from the press bench from Derby Telegraph’s Leigh Curtis
* The latest news from the Derby County Academy, including the Under-21s and Under-18s
* A quick round-up of the latest Club and Ticketing news
* A look at the return of the Rams Family Fund in a round-up of the Community Trust news
* A round-up of the latest Derby County Women news ahead of their 2022/23 season

Order Your Copy Of The Ram
You can pre-order your copy of The Ram, or subscribe for the season, from the club’s official publishing partners Ignition Sports Media by visiting ignitionsportsmedia.com/products/derby-county-full-season-subscription-2022-23.
The package covers all 23 of Derby’s home League One fixtures, starting this weekend, but subscribers will only pay for 22 editions meaning this is the cheapest way of staying up to date with your beloved club if you can’t make every game.
The treasured 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 £115, including post and packaging, or you can spread the cost by signing up to a half-season subscription for £64 until 2023 for the first 12 games.
Subscriptions do not include any additional domestic cup or play-off matches, which must be purchased separately.
* Please note that this subscription is not for supporters Overseas, but an Overseas Bundle is available for all editions for 2022/23 which will be despatched by international tracked courier on two occasions during the season.
