This one hands down...for us older DCFC fans...great memories 👍

Not bothered. A defender bettered by Sibley? Nah thanks.

Am I the only one not really bothered if Haydon Roberts signs or not? I mean, hes ok but not that essential.

2004
my first one. Dad took me, watching and singing along to Metallica with my old man, then black sabbath the next year. Cracking festival 

...but you've displayed no real evidence , as has been pointed put, that Anya did that either. Just a passing thought that he 'must' have had offers.
Anya wouldn't have been a semi-regular on an international team (even if it was Scotland... who let's be fair rely on effort more than talent) without "putting a shift in".
if he wasn't being selected for other reasons that's nothing to do with him.
I'm not trying to have a pop at you or your views, I just think sometimes people need to be a bit more considerate and stop holding players to expectations based upon the money they're paid, the fee that's been paid for them, or anything else.

Why do you call him a cockroach? My understanding, which is limited admittedly, is that he was signed on a transfer fee with instalments based on appearances/milestones. It was the club who didn’t want to play him rather than him not wanting to play. He kept himself fit, and played for the youth teams, therefore I think you are being harsh. I would have probably sat on my contract in his situation. Another Mel classic signing for a manager he got rid of a few weeks later.

Fair play to him, best of luck and hope he has a great season there

Massive respect to any player that is willing to drop a level to play for a team close to their heart, in my eyes. 
He was great to watch last season and I hope he has a successful year at Notts.
Nothing "embarrassing" in my opinion

Obviously a gutting thing for us as derby fans, but it at least makes me a bit happy that there's still more to football than money to some. He will have quite clearly taken a pay cut to go there, to play for his boyhood club before retiring. It's a decision I'm sure we all would like to think we would also make, but when put in the position I'm not sure many would. Good luck, Didzy. 

So, as much as it looks shaky on the surface, as some have said, if he lives that way, has been doing his coaching badges (which he has), he's just setting himself up for the future. If anything, it might give us another pot for us to dip in for loans aslong as connor is committed to us. It doesn't always have to be bitter, and if a relationship can be formed between clubs/management, it could stand us in good stead

Not really any different from players doing media work, commentating on SKY at evening games.

I don't think it's actually that unusual for older players to do some low-level youth coaching at other clubs while still playing. I'm sure Bucko was coaching the kids here while still a Burton player, wasn't he?

The full quote for the “as it stands” bit was in answer to a question about Derby recruiting players in the summer and aiming for promotion this season, Conor said “Yeah that’s the plan, as it stands anyway I’m at Derby for next year, you know obviously anything can happen in football we’ll see, but as it stands I’m at Derby and hopefully we can recruit well and see how it goes next year ya know?”
I don’t see that as reason to panic or write the bloke off. He spoke well about the club, how he joined last summer as he wanted to get back to playing games consistently after playing bit part roles at previous clubs  and he enjoyed last season, explaining we fell short because we drew games we should have won and lost games we should have drew. 
He still lives in the Birmingham area, if he chooses to spend a couple of hours of an evening each week coaching youngsters is it that much of a problem?
So long as he’s contracted here and he trains and plays on a Saturday/Tuesday I don’t really care how he spends the rest of his week.

Good for him. If it's something he can do in addition to playing for us then fair enough. Don't see what the fuss is about.

Has anyone been into B&Q to check?

Is he Spanish?  Get him in if so. We haven’t had one of those since All-Bent-Toes-A was here. 

Love a bit of flair 

Bit of a bugger if Reading get Wilder, would vastly improve their chances of contending next season.

Goals are over-rated anyway.

How much of this is just agents trying to create interest?

We have been linked with a Arsneal player swiss international begins with a X but I cant spell his name.

Glad we’ve got all that pesky football out of the way and we can start looking forward to the real reason we love this sport…
 
The Summer Transfer Window opens Thursday! The summer sagas, the twists and turns, the crushing blows when a free agent goes elsewhere, the highs when we see a Twitter announcement from the club, the disappointment when tweet literally anything else that’s not a signing, Imminent!, 48 hours!, what will be the journalistic buzzword this year?, what Twitter account can we trust, will Nixon show any form or consistency?, when will Barry the Ram turn up?
Best time of year!
