Image for Derby County: Fans flock to images of Colin Kazim-Richards from recent win

Derby County fans have been reacting to photos that have emerged of Colin Kazim-Richards from their recent win in the Championship.

Even though relegation looks a near certainty for the Rams after their points deduction this season, they certainly aren’t going down without a fight.

They recently beat promotion-chasing West Bromwich Albion, although the victory came in rather fortuitous circumstances, with Kazim-Richards getting the game’s winner after a mix-up in the Baggies defence.

The club’s Twitter account posted a series of photos on its feed after the game showing a jubilant Kazim-Richards celebrating the victory, which he himself also retweeted, which gave Derby County fans a perfect opportunity to show their appreciation for his efforts, with many hoping that he stays at the club beyond the end of the season:

“Tell him he’s going nowhere!”

“@ColinKazim thank you! You play like a true legend. Much love & respect from Pennsylvania Ram fan.”
“Give him a lifetime contact”
“Don’t let him go”
“Top lad”
“Keep doing what your doing mate, us fans love your passion for this club”

At the age of 35 and only under contract with the club until the end of the season, he’s certainly on his last legs as a player, but if he can still do something in League One, then it might be worth him sticking around to try and lead the promotion charge.
