In this shortened version of our November Patreon interview, Chris, Richard, and a group of our Patreon listeners sat down on Zoom with former Rams player, coach and manager Gary Rowett to recall his two spells at the Baseball Ground and Pride Park.
Rowett is best remembered as the manager in 2017-18 who took Derby to the playoff semi-finals, before defeat over two legs to Fulham. There were, however, many important moments in Rowett's managerial stint - the transformation of Matej Vydra into the Championship's best striker, our most recent victory over Nottingham Forest (!), and ofcourse, his acrimonious departure to Stoke City in the summer of 2018.
Rowett also enjoyed a three-year playing spell at Jim Smith's Derby between 1995 and 1998, helping the Rams gain promotion into the Premiership and establishing himself as a consistent top flight full back. He told SBW about the best memories from his playing days, and the words from Joe Royle which served as motivation throughout his career.
