Just down the way in Allenton they have a proper gang that all wear purple at the same time and they fight with other gangs that wear a different colour. They really really like purple Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However there are a few examples. Kevin Nolan Stewart Downing Matt Ritchie That said, there has been a love affair with ourselves as Derby fans and certain players who left and we were desperate for their return. Mainly players who truly cut their cut at our club. Big Tom being one but I also recall the clamour to bring Chris Riggott home. Personally I would love to see Huddleston moving around the pride park pitch in the glorious black and white of Derby County. Rams for life That's the problem, right there!

So I'm a troll because I had a different opinion to you? Ask 90% if Derby fans at the time of the comment and they'd agree that Johnson was struggling. Actually let's scrap that, let's all live in the world of Eddie where every one of our players is world class......

Don't like different opinions, don't come on the forum, it's that simple It wasn't just a case of Johnson struggling - it was your typically disparaging remarks about his apparent lack of ability, apparent lack of effort and basically the fact that you had written him off as not fit to wear the shirt. I know that none of our players are 'world class' - I also know that a player who had been a folk hero and player of the season at a side that had been promoted the previous season, and who had started at Derby pretty well and who subsequently had run into a period of bad form was worth not writing off, and certainly shouldn't have been booed off the park. What I try to do is to get behind the players even when things are going badly for them. There's a word for people like that - strangely enough, it's 'supporter'. There's no qualification to that label - no 'when they are doing well' tagged on to the end. Try it some time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So just because I'm "negative" on here, you have come to the conclusion that I don't get behind them? I said that Johnson was poor in the dm role, not overall. At the time he was poor in that role. I didn't say he showed no effort, you're the one saying I did.Try reading properly next time.I'm pretty sure that I get behind the team more than you do at matches.

I think it helps that he is now being taught how to play that role in training rather than being chucked in there and told to do his best. That all being said, I still think he is best as a box to box player. Johnson himself has admitted that he still gets the urge to go forward but is told not to by Keogh and Pearce. Certainly an option to have though. I think the signing of De Sart will help everyone in midfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
