Derby County bring in Black Cats striker Ryan Noble
Derby County

Derby County have signed Sunderland striker Ryan Noble on a one-month emergency loan deal.

The England Under-19 forward was the top scorer in the reserves last season, with 12 goals from nine starts and eight substitute appearances.

Noble, 19, also scored 25 goals in 22 games for the youth team.

Rams boss Nigel Clough told the club's website: \"Ryan is a young lad with a good reputation. We've watched him a few times and have been impressed.\"

Noble is a Black Cats youth team product product and made his first-team debut in the FA Cup against Barrow in January.

He had a loan spell with Watford last season, but did not make a first-team appearance.

Clough added: \"Steve Bruce [Sunderland manager] rates him highly and thinks this will be a good part of his development.\"

There's no emergency about it. Just a way to get round the system.

Ridiculous like, but I wouldn't worry about it, Derby are just a big, but average club in this league.

Another player for them to ruin

Just had the \"pleasure\" of watching the Derby goals on our local BBC programme. Don't be in any doubt they do need a proper striker, apart from Greenys goal which was a good header, the Palace defence was no-where for the others and they had had a man sent off. Even our defence shouldn't have a problem defending against them.

Remember Palace at home last season?

They were shocking and we made them look average !
