Derby County’s Legacy Numbers are displayed as a chronological list of all players to have ever represented the club’s Men’s team in a competitive game.


Throughout the Rams’ 140-year history, almost 1,200 players have made senior appearances.

Players have been allocated a number based on their debut in any competitive fixture, including all cup competitions.

Where players have made debuts at the same time, numbers have been allocated alphabetically by surname. When debuts occur in the same fixture, the order given is based on starting minute.

Please Note: The games during the abandoned 1939/40 season are excluded, as are war time matches and friendlies. Where more than one player makes their debut on the same day, then the numbers are allocated in alphabetical order or order of substitutions.
