As a fan I know the first day of season is exciting and you have the hope that your team will be promoted, and as a Derby fan I personally have hope they can win more then one match all year. Good luck to all the promoted teams minus Florist of course, can all the relegated teams bounce straight back, its never been done yet. Let the optimism begin for the new season!
