Tito’s gone, as has the gold, but Dicko stays.
The top news today is that Derby have rejected bids for striker Liam Dickinson from Norwich and Blackpool. Norwich have had “two small bids” rejected which are likely to have fallen short of the £500,000 that Ramballs reported on Wednesday. Blackpool are likely to be the preferred choice for Dickinson as he is familiar with the Bloomfield Road outfit having spent time on loan there last season and they would provide him with the chance to show what he can do in the Coca-Cola Championship.
Tito Villas move to Cruz Azul has been completed. The hard working striker, who cost Derby £2m back in January 2008, has returned to Central America in a deal reportedly worth £1.7m which represents good business by Adam Pearson.

And finally, it would appear that Derby County have once again changed their logo by dropping the gold from the club crest. The badge, which appears to be plain black and white, can be seen on the new training tops worn at the first day back in training and in the banner across the top of the official site. Already there has been discussion on the message boards about this and it seems to be a 50/50 split as to whether fans like this or not.
Today sees the launch of the new kit in Derby Market place at 5:30pm. I noticed last night, as I walked past the market place, a huge inflatable Adidas tent thing (sorry I can’t be more descriptive) as well as black and white bunting up Irongate. As long as it stops raining, it should be a good evening. I will be at the launch and will be reporting back this evening with photos and a write up of the event.
