DERBY boss Wayne Rooney hailed his players after winning their final away game before relegation.

First senior goals from Malcolm Ebiowei and Eiran Cashin ensured a run of nine consecutiv­e losses on the road ended in front of 4,000 raucous Rams.

“I’m delighted with the win – performanc­e-wise we can play better than that,” admitted Rooney.

“It’s a funny game, football, there have been much better performanc­es away from home and we have come away with nothing.

“I am delighted for the players. It was a great atmosphere here today, both sets of fans were good, so it was a good test.”

Derby spent the majority of the match in their own
