Alan Stubbs insists he has no regrets about quitting Everton for the Premier League's bottom club Derby County. The veteran defender swapped a push for UEFA Champions League football last month for a seemingly forlorn battle against relegation. But, despite the likelihood of playing in the Championship next season, Stubbs is happy with his move to Pride Park. "I have made the right decision," Stubbs told BBC Radio Derby.

Annoying

"I'm not enjoying the results, but I am enjoying playing, and as long as I am playing and enjoying my football, then I will go as long as I can. "That enjoyment increases when you win, and I want to experience that winning feeling in a Derby shirt, and the sooner the better. "I don't like losing. If you ask anyone who has been around me, I am probably one of the biggest losers. "Losing is annoying me, the manager, the players and the staff. We just need to roll our sleeves up and start giving a better account of ourselves than we are doing at the moment. "When you cross that line there is nowhere to hide, and as a group of players we need to stand up and be counted."
