  1. What would you want 'them' to take responsibility for? It only started to unravel when the money didn't arrive - why didn't Kirchner's money arrive? The fact that it wasn't Kirchner's money couldn't be deduced until he didn't hand it over.
  2. Wasn't there a game where Sibley played on the right in front of Wilson? Worked quite well. Then CBT on the left, Waggy/Collo in the middle?
  3. I think whilst safe to say many Derby fans dislike the EFL I can't see how they take the blame for believing Kirchner - see all the big US organisations that were also 'taken in'. I presume Kirchner showed the money but just forgot to say it wasn't his! As for Preston, there were things written at the time, and talked about on here, but most were saying they had an anti-CK axe to grind because he backed out of their deal. They got the blame for 'increasing' the asking price and were judged accordingly.
  4. No I missed that. Lucky Cashin didn't retaliate then.
  5. Bloody hell he must have given Big Daddy lessons! Lucky then that Cashin wasn't as stupid as Bradley.
  6. Was I watching - yes I was. And the replays on RamsTV. No surprise there was lots of holding going on, that is Bradley's M.O. As I said 'who started it and who finished it'?
  7. But we've seen him 'go to ground' in the opposition box before, there's a picture on a thread somewhere of him wrestling with a player and they fall over. Who starts it who finishes it? Bradley fell over I bet he was doing some awful attempt at s**thousing. He's just all round poor.
  8. Warne said: "Sonny said, 'He (Monthe) was in my face and he pulled me down' and that he didn't do anything. "I have to believe and trust my player until I see anything different. It's disappointing because it magnifies the poor day at the office we had. Six games left and you are missing three of those, so it's a massive blow. He was pretty confident he hadn't done anything wrong. I could see the lads all getting frustrated, and when it is like that you can't touch anyone. "It's all right for us because we're on the side of the pitch, but the adrenaline is pumping as a player, your heart is going at 180bpm and you want to score a goal. It's easy to say don't get emotional, but it's difficult."
  9. Surely Warne will take the unexpected opportunity to go with a four at the back, if so I think we'll get 2nd place. #COYR
  10. Adam Thorley is back at Derby Derby County's academy has been strengthened with the return of the highly-rated Adam Thorley. Thorley was poached by Chelsea back in 2021 when he became their under-15s coach. But it is understood he has now returned to Derby where he has been appointed head of technical development for under-nines to under-16s. Thorley initially started his career at Derby having joined the club in 2010, but had a short stint at Wolves where he was YDP coach for eight months. He was Derby's under-18s coach and professional development phase coach before leaving for Premier League Chelsea. During his time at Pride Park, the club cultivated a number of players to come through the academy including the likes of Kaide Gordon (Liverpool) and Liam Delap (Manchester City).
  11. Robinson on duty with England Young Derby County defender Keilen Robinson has been on England duty for the under-19s, coming on as a substitute in their 1-1 draw against Morocco last Thursday. An own-goal just before half-time had given Morocco the lead at the Stade Moulay Hassan in Rabat before Chelsea defender Billy Gee equalised with ten minutes remaining. Also included in the side which drew 1-1 was former Derby academy prospect Omari Kellyman, who left the club to join Aston Villa.
  12. I thought Fornah was injured (his back).
  13. Hourihane is one of the few in the squad that organises the team and gets any real style of play from them. That's why he keeps getting picked imo. And Fornah is not much other than a bit of running around.
  14. You'd pick Fornah over Hourihane?
  15. Couple of posters on here saw it, ask them.
  16. I was wrong. So what, I didn't sign him, our manager did and takes every opportunity to shoe-horn him into the team.
  17. Perhaps someone better tell him Sonny Bradley is old and white? 😄
  18. Bradley hasn't shown himself to be the brightest apple in the barrel in the opponents penalty area though has he. All the stupid wrestling he gets involved in. But even so moving your head towards another player is enough to get you sent off nowadays. Edit: just seen rammieib's post - not much point in appealing then!
  19. I did too, but unlike Warne I didn't have detailed information on him, and he wouldn't reply to my WhatsApp!
  20. DET says: "Bradley relying on video to stop him being hit in the pocket ...A terrible day at the office was epitomised by the red card that Sonny Bradley picked up in stoppage time and he really can have no complaints. Warne said afterward that the centre-back had protested his innocence, but he is now staring at a three-match ban at a critical time of the season. Unless there is strong video evidence that can categorically show he didn't aim a headbutt at Manny Monthe, then he will be missing a key part of the run-in. He won't be able to face Blackpool, Portsmouth or Wycombe, three critical fixtures that are the hardest of the last six games of the campaign. It was a needless, stupid and reckless altercation which served absolutely no purpose other than to help Northampton secure all three points. And it now has major ramifications for the team given Warne is now likely to have to switch from a three at the back given there are no other fit centre-backs available. Warne said he will review the incident because he had not seen it again before he came out to do his post-match duties. But if it does turn out that Bradley has no defence, then Warne said a fine will be coming his way. The first thing Bradley should do is apologise to his team-mates. Yes, it's an emotionally charged game, yes there was a lot at stake, but he's let himself down at a time when Derby are virtually down to bare bones as it is."
  21. Exactly. Which part of 'a tricky question for them to answer' didn't you get?! 😄
  22. It's a tricky question for them to answer that don't you think? Say well actually we expected some of them to get more minutes in the Cup games and then look over to where Warne is sat? 😄
  23. 👏 His distribution was better than recently. But he's not going to play the ball along the back four with any speed, Bradley isn't able to do much at pace. And just like our 'measured' throw-ins, we take our time. No good in pointing out what the opposition do when we do the same time-wasting.
