Normanton End Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 "How did I play Dad?" I like going to watch my son play for a team on Saturday mornings. Afterwards we will go for a meal and chat about football. "You were good", I replied. "You've got good balance, a nice touch and you've got a lot of little tricks. You remind me of Paul Kitson an old Derby player." "Was he a good player?" "Yes" I replied. But I could have added that Kitson was a bit of a disappointing player. He was a fancy dan who should have scored far more goals than the 78 he ended up with after a 16 year career. I know he had a lot of injuries and he spent a lot of time in Newcastle reserves, but in my opinion he lacked something. For patches in a game he would look like a class player who deserved to be playing in the top division. But he never had the killer instinct a top forward needs. Which Derby players have disappointed you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duracell Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 Przymis?aw Ka?mierczak. You can add Andrejs Pereplotkins to that as well. I was 15 at the time and assumed that any player we signed that was foreign was good after the 2003-04 season. That was put to bed by Paul Jewell.

I think it was also the fact we'd endured 2 or 3 seasons of sausage and there seemed a glimmer of hope we might get to see some good football. Rated professional, internationally capped player, YouTube glory...sadly he just ran around like a headless chicken. Absolutely sausage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McMuffin Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 Bjorne otto Bragstad Francois Grenet Pierre Ducrouq Rob Earnshaw Premaslaw Kazmierzcak Nathan Ellington Nathan Tyson A few I can think off whom at the time thought were decent signings but all ended up disappointing. Must be more.... Connor Sammon i knew would be no good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
