==Structure and facilities== After the [[Taylor Report]] was published, the stadium was slowly converted to become all-seater from terracing. Consequently, its capacity dropped to 17,451 in the 1995–96 season.<ref name = "Inglis150">{{harvnb|Inglis|1996|p=150}}</ref> This was inadequate for the ambitions of Derby County, who were chasing promotion to the [[Premier League]] during the early to mid-1990s, finally achieving it as Division One runners-up in 1996. The stadium featured two 3-tier stands at either end, both with the lowest tier not facing completely straight towards the pitch (due to the previous configuration for baseball) giving a wedge-like appearance at one end. Also, in one corner was a unique stand that was more house-like, mainly for media use.
