David Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 Barry Bannan has joined Championship side Derby County on a month's loan. Nigel Clough has swooped to sign up the reserve regular, who has been a revelation for the second string this season. The Scottish midfielder made his debut for Villa's first team in December 2008 in the UEFA Cup group stage match against Hamburg, where he came on as a second-half substitute. Bannan then made his first start against CSKA Moscow in a UEFA Cup knock-out tie in February 2009. The 19-year-old goes straight into the Rams squad for their clash with Sheffield United at Bramall Lane.

David Posted March 13, 2009 Author Share Posted March 13, 2009 I was talking rubbish when I said he's a central midfielder, apparently he's a wide midfielder and played on the left when he made his debut for Villa last month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Posted March 14, 2009 Author Share Posted March 14, 2009 Hopefully we can keep him for the rest of the season, Clough said it was initially for a month and he'l take it from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boycie Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 He's got to be carefull when he plays at PP. Rammie might line him up at halftime to take part in the penalty shootout! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vicky-27 Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 I doubt Martin O'Neal would let him go shame, we could do with him staying, season long loan next year would be good - then you never know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
