What a gentleman. Hope the fans get the success David Clowes deserves. I'm a few years older but David's memories are similar to mine. My first year of properly going to games was in the third division. Great memories. Would love to buy you a pint or three some day David.

First and foremost, thank you mr Clowes. You have saved a historical football club and taken it out of messy hands. Every fan owes you a debt and untainted loyalty. "Picking up a bag of sweets from the corner shop!" The simplest of things with his dad, proper memory building! Please dont hound this man, he should be able to sit where he wants!!! Thank you and we will stand by you forever. Up the rams!

Stability is a word that I am definitely on board with! This is going to take time and we need to be patient. COYR

Such a down to earth guy and glad that he's brought us out of this mess. I like the sound of his end goals with closer alignment with the EFL and stability.

I already love Clowes 😂😂

Many thanks from all the derby county supporters here in New Zealand.

Great interview. It's nice that he talked fondly of Lionel. 👍👍

“Buy in”. THAT is exactly how a leader leads a football club. Getting buy in from everyone means everyone marching in the same direction with passion and commitment. Mad respects! I can’t be prouder of my football club.

Thank you so much for the efforts undertaken by yourself and staff to purchase the club I dread to think what would have been in store for us if Chris Kirchner got his grubby hands on it .

Like the way this guy talks. Obviously a big Derby fan and I believe the club is in a good/safe pair of hands. Total respect mr Clowes!!

What a top man. Thankyou from the bottom of every DCFC supporters heart for what you have done for the club and the community. I'm so excited about our future together...

Well done , true fan and it must be a very hard thing to do to buy a football club especially in the state of derby. You look after us fans and we will keep coming back time and time again 31000 yesterday true fans👍

This interview has aged incredibly well. Thank you, David. Legend! COYR!

Very experienced business team and a solid company. Also, importantly, family rooted in Debyshire and clearly genuinely cares about the stability and long term future of Derby County. This is the best possible outcome for this great club and I can only wish David and his team the very best. In Liam and his coaches, we also happen to have a very talented group looking after the playing side too - very impressed with the balance between experience and youth coming through on the playing side. 31, 000 loyal fans for a season opener in Division 1 ? Brilliant !

One word..... class

legend, proper derby accent as well. what a guy.

I wish I was on that tube...I would have given him the biggest hug ever 🐏🐏🐏

Top bloke with genuine ❤️ for Derby County. Thank you and welcome to our beloved club. Let the good times roll 🐏

That’s it my minds made up . 5.26 going on the back of my shirt . I reckon it should catch on big time 🤔 . Thank you so much David Clowes and your team for saving us from a precipice! DTID “ one club , one love “ 💪🖤🐏🐏🐏

Great to hear the owner reminisce about his time as a Derby fan. Also respect his focus on the need for stability and also really impressed with the pride in takes in representing Derby County. And theres also the matter of the huge gratitude we fans have for him for saving the club. Onwards and upwards. COYR!

Proud to support a club with this gent as as an owner. Full backing today and always

Love this...we're on our way back

Thanks for saving the club!! Legend!!

Watching this after us rams gained promotion back to the championship and wow I love this man!!! Up the derby

What a man!

Thanks for doing this interview Mr Clowes and thanks for saving DCFC he's one of our own👊 🐑 🐏

Mr Clowes deserves to never have to buy a pint in Derby again.

Merry Christmas to David Clowes and all Rams fans.

Thank you

What a great guy.

Forever Grateful, I can now take my 2 lads to experience the atmosphere of Pride Park rocking, all thanks to this man.....🤝🤝🙏

I think we definitely dodged a bullet with Kirchner pulling out. To have someone running the club who first and foremost is a proper Derby fan is a blessing!

What a great result he talks commonsense and truly sounds like a Derby man, best of luck lads from Oz 🇦🇺

First time ever bought a season ticket -,he’s worth it

Look at what we got, in the end. This awesome man mentions a certain word- Integrity! The quality of being honest and having strong moral principles! Imagine then, if that crook kirchner had got his grubby hands on our club ? I know, it doesn't bare thinking about, right ?

Good lad🤟🏼

It's very clear that the chairmen is a fan of Derby County Lets back him to the hilt and try to fill Pride Park this season.

Thanks for saving our club David

Thank you mr Clowes for saving my beloved club. Thank you thank you thank you x

Good not have asked for a better guy. Certainly more trustworthy than CH but at least we dodged that bullet. DC knows the history of the club, George and Hector my two favourites as a kid. Hopefully he can get us back where we belong and beating Forest 4 - 1 again. Good start yesterday.

Any cheeky shots of the Twitter admin?

Very revealing interview, it's great that he's a true fan and brings some genuine integrity to the club. Just hope he doesn't get carried away and start overspending money we haven't got. This has to be a long term project considering where we are now. Good luck to him

Jammy git watching that team back then. How bout re-creating those times Dave since I never had the pleasure? Problem is games full of cheats these days who claim its part of the game. I beg to differ

Have you sold all the chairs?

Definitely a 🌈
