 In this season, Derby County moved from their former home at the Baseball Ground to their new home, Pride Park Stadium, and Eranio's goal, to take the score to 1–0 against Barnsley was the first that was scored at Derby's new home ground.Eranio had thought of retiring after the 2000–01 season, but manager Jim Smith persuaded him to stay on.When Smith was fired in October 2001, Eranio chose to leave Derby County.
