DERBY County midfielder Jeff Hendrick captured this hilarious video of manager Steve McClaren before the win away at Blackpool battling against some fierce winds.
He was struggling to hold on to his suit bag as the winds in the north west took their toll.
Later that night Derby went top of the league.
A YOUNG mother gave an emotional speech in court on the impact having to care for her severely brain-damaged son 24/7 is having on her life.
Olivia Shaw told a judge she feels "overwhelming guilt" that she was unable to help then four-month-old Mason who suffered horrific injuries when his father Luke Kerwin shook him.
This afternoon Kerwin, of Athol Close, Sinfin, was jailed for three years and two months after pleading guilty to causing grievous bodily harm on Mason, who is now almost two-years-old.
Judge Jonathan Gosling told the 25-year old: "You were in a position of trust. This was your baby and at that moment you were his sole carer and you abused that trust."
In an almost unprecedented move Miss Shaw, 23, of Littleover, addressed the court in person, taking to the witness box to read out a victim personal statement on how the shocking incident has affected her life.
Fighting back the tears she said: "Because of what Luke did to Mason I realise I am going to put my own life on hold for years.
"We are cut off from life, deprived from being able to bond properly as mother and child.
"I dread going to sleep and not waking in case he has a seizure.
"I feel totally overwhelmed with guilt because I was not able to help him."
Derby Crown Court, sitting at Southern Derbyshire Magistrates' Court, heard how Kerwin broke two of Mason's ribs when he picked him up and shook him "when he lost his temper" in the early hours of April 5 last year.
Mark Van Der Zwart, prosecuting, said the then four-month old was taken to hospital where scans revealed he had suffered "severe brain injuries".
Both Miss Shaw and Kerwin were arrested and during a police investigation Miss Shaw was only allowed limited and supervised access to her son, who was being cared for by Miss Shaw's mother.
Mr Van Der Zwart said: "These were catastrophic injuries to Mason's brain.
"He has severe epilepsy, it is very likely he will not be able to walk and he needs a nasal gastric tube in order to get the many medicines he needs.
"It is highly likely he will remain entirely dependent on carers throughout his life."
Miss Shaw, a former Derby Moor Community Sports College pupil, met Kerwin when she was a teenager and they started going out when she was 16 and he was 19.They set up home in Kestrels Croft, Sinfin, three years later and Mason was born in December, 2012.
When he was 10 days old he had to undergo open-heart surgery after being diagnosed with congenital heart disease.
The court was told how on the night of the shaking incident Kerwin had been out with a friend and had smoked cannabis.
He returned home and he and Miss Shaw went to bed, leaving Mason in his cot.
Miss Shaw got up twice to check on him but then asked Kerwin to check on him when he started crying a third time.
Mr Van Der Zwart said: "The defendant got back into bed and Miss Shaw went to check on Mason.
"She looked into his cot and he was making a grunting sound.
"She picked him up, his head flopped and his legs started moving as though he was cycling.
"She became hysterical and the emergency service were called who got Mason to hospital quickly."
Bobby Egbuna, for Kerwin, said his client was fully aware of the impact of what he had done.
Mr Egbuna said: "It is accepted that Mr Kerwin did not intend to cause the type of injuries that Mason suffered.
"He has to live with the consequences and in his own way has suffered for what was a momentary lapse.
"He will come out (of prison) with the stigma that will be attached to him for the rest of his life."
LITTLE Eaton, Kingsway and Markeaton Islands could be replaced with flyovers in a scheme which would give the city's economy a huge boost, according to experts.
And MPs Pauline Latham and Chris Williamson have also shared a rare moment of political agreement by both backing the idea.
Now, it is understood that as part of the Highways Agency's planning process, it is looking at flyovers at Kingsway and Little Eaton too.
A spokesman for the Highways Agency said: "We aim to make significant improvements to the Little Eaton, Markeaton and Kingsway roundabouts on the A38 at Derby.
"The work to develop these schemes is at the very early planning stage and we are considering options for each location.
"As the work progresses there will be public consultations before any decisions are made."
Paul Harris is the sales and marketing director at Derby Brewing Company. The firm owns the Queen's Head in Little Eaton, which he said was hit very hard by recent work at the Little Eaton island.
He said: "Derby as a whole has a problem with congestion and as a city that is a negative as the problems get worse.
"I think this should have been done quite a few years ago. It took them so long at Little Eaton and the same is happening now at Markeaton.
"Would these plans benefit Little Eaton as a village, I'm not sure, but for Derby as a city then yes, definitely.
"We need to think about the impact on businesses and residents, that would be my concern."
Mid Derbyshire MP Mrs Latham, whose constituency includes the islands at Markeaton and Little Eaton, said she welcomed the news.
She said: "I would support it at Little Eaton because there should have been one built 35 years ago.
"Both should have flyovers. Anything would be better than none. I've just been through Markeaton Island to get to the airport and it took 25 minutes to get through.
"The flyovers would be good the economy and fantastic for business. It would be good for everybody long-term.
"It would make such a difference for new investments. We have to invest, we can't just not invest, we have to do it for the future.
"It would be immeasurably better."
Derby North MP Mr Williamson also believes the work should have already have been completed.
He said: "We have been aware for the need for a flyover or an underpass at these three locations.
"I put it down to a lack of priority by the government."
He said the only way to solve the traffic problems in the city was to build the flyovers because the work at the minute was just "sticking plasters together".
He said: "In the past Derby has been the poor relation and the fact the HS2 college is not being built here is another example of that."
Residents at Ford Farm Mobile Home Park, next to Little Eaton Island, welcome the plans after they suffered months of misery.
Kay Tarling, 50, said: "I would be quite happy to see a flyover because to see the traffic flowing well will be good and it will just get rid of all the problems we face.
"I lost my temper when they were doing the roadworks at Little Eaton and they cornered off where we are. It meant we had to be let through. None of that would happen with a flyover. It would be great."
Fellow resident Brian Rushton said he backed the plans but did not think they would go ahead.
He said: "The roadworks went on for a lot longer than we expected, but now it is taking ages to complete the job at Markeaton. A flyover has been proposed before but I would estimate it to cost about £25m.
"I believe they would have to come through the site because it would come off the land and I can't see them destroying this site. The cost for that would be astronomical to get rid of this site.
"We have got 18 residents here and it would be a big job to rehouse all of those.
"The whole thing would be a huge and the biggest infrastructure project the city has seen."

A GOAL on the stroke of half-time from John Eustace has put Derby County 1-0 up at the break in their Championship clash with Wigan Athletic.
It came moments after home debutant Jack Butland had saved James Tavernier's penalty, turning the game on its head.
Wigan had arguably been the better side for most of the opening period, with new league leaders Derby finding chances hard to come by.
The Latics might have had a penalty after 19 minutes when Callum McManaman went down under a rash challenge from Cyrus Christie.
But referee Bobby Madley gave a goal kick, then booked McManaman and Rams skipper Richard Keogh following the tussle that ensued.
Marc-Antoine Fortune blasted a shot from a tight angle across goal, while Adam Forshaw's long-range effort cleared the bar.
After 31 minutes, Roger Espinoza played in McManaman but his low shot was superbly kept out by the legs of Butland.
Derby finally mustered their first shot after 39 minutes, Jordon Ibe feeding Johnny Russell, whose first-time curler from 20 yards went narrowly wide.
In the 44th minute, Ibe cut in from the left but fired wide from a difficult angle.
Moments later, Wigan were awarded a penalty, for a disputed handball against Eustace.
Tavernier stepped up but Butland saved brilliantly, diving full stretch to his right.
That lifted the home crowd and Derby took an unlikely lead in the third minute of added time.
Russell's free kick from the right was attacked by Zak Whitbread and volleyed home by Eustace from close range.

McClaren still made a double change at the break, bringing on the fit-again Simon Dawkins and Jeff Hendrick for Ibe and Will Hughes.
Dawkins almost made an immediate impact, firing a low shot inches wide from 20 yards in the 47th minute.
Hendrick also went close, in the 56th minute - his first-time effort was parried by Scott Carson and cleared before Craig Bryson could pounce on the loose ball.
After 67 minutes, Chris Martin teed up Bryson, whose side-foot shot was helped on by Hendrick, only for Rob Kiernan to make a crucial block.
Two minutes later, Wigan were level.
Zak Whitbread half-blocked Roger Espinoza's cross from the right but the ball found its way into the middle and substitute McClean arrived just ahead of Cyrus Christie to beat Butland from six yards.
Tavernier might have made amends for his penalty miss but saw his 20-yard strike fly just wide.
McClaren made an attacking final change, bringing on Leon Best for Eustace, but it was Wigan who got the next goal.
Adam ForshaW's shot was beaten out by Butland and Fortune's follow-up was well blocked.
However, the ball broke for McClean, who just did enough to send the ball into the unguarded net.
Derby's best chance of an equaliser came in the 90th minute when Martin curled a free kick inches wide from the edge of the box.
