Town’s first ever win over the Rams came courtesy of some wonderful play between Louis Appéré and Hoskins, as well as a resilient defensive showing. Here are our player ratings from a famous afternoon at Sixfields...

1. Louie Moulden
Few would have predicted him to keep a clean sheet against such quality opposition and he didn't even have to work that hard for it. His defenders blocked numerous shots and Derby failed to hit the target with their other chances.

The decision to play him as the middle centre-half of a back three raised eyebrows but it proved a masterstroke.
