Rampage Posted June 24, 2015 Author Share Posted June 24, 2015 Wisdom at £1.5 million would be one part of the defence closed up for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r4derby Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 You're overpaying a bit for Lambert and Wisdom in my opinion. Lambert went for £4m and he's not worth more now than he was then is he? I'd say about £2m and they'd let him go. I wouldn't pay any more than that for him personally anyway, he's hilariously overrated. Wisdom didn't have the best time at WBA did he? £1.5m I'd say.Whilst Lambert isn't anywhere near the level Liverpool want to be, he is a goalscorer at Prem level, and has proven it for more than one season. Plus, at Championship level he would easily bag 20-30 goals, especially in a promotion contender. Agree with your valuation though, 4.5 is silly money.

Rampage Posted June 24, 2015 Author Share Posted June 24, 2015 Lambert on loan till Xmas with view to extending. having read the report on Martin's injury, I remain unconvinced that he will not need an operation at some point.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Van der MoodHoover Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 In the Co-op at Belper they are selling Ipro off at 25p, That would mean 80 million bottles. When I was growing up in Belper any mention of sports related fare would have resulted in a lynching. The staple diets of the time being chocolate misshapes form the Thorntons factory, chips and Home Ales five star. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with your valuation though, 4.5 is silly money.Problem is, when you get to his age, every year matters more and more. He's not in his prime anymore. There's a question of 'has he still got it?'. Some footballers decline with age at an alarming rate. Gerrard's decline seemed to come as a shock to him. At 33, it wouldn't be a reliable purchase. No matter how many he's scored at Prem level over a year ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rampage Posted June 24, 2015 Author Share Posted June 24, 2015 Loan on good money would be ideal as he is the only English player anything like Martin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rampage Posted June 24, 2015 Author Share Posted June 24, 2015 I think that Thorntons is being taken over by Ferrero Rocher. How is that for an upgrade for Belper? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an upgrade for Somercotes. To be fair a nuclear explosion would be an upgrade for Somercotes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rampage Posted June 24, 2015 Author Share Posted June 24, 2015 Get off the fence Ramnut! What are you trying to say?. These dyed in the Ramswool supporters have studied at pubs in the region, swapped notes with each other and have become right good at picking players. in fairness they leave it to their respective management teams to negotiate the fees.It is not their money so they can afford to be generous with Mel and the Directors' cash. If we get promoted it will be worth paying over the odds Ramnut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rampage Posted June 25, 2015 Author Share Posted June 25, 2015 Someone made a good point earlier, that as players move on to other clubs, less players of that standard remain and prices can shoot up. This is another reason to say well done to the management team at the Rams. At the end of the day, a player is worth what anyone will pay. The Rams look like they have cash to spend so teams will try to bump up the price.Shackell may sign a preseason contract with us in January or Burnley may get less if they cash in at that point..
