DcFc Dyycheee Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Derby County are still interested in making a move for Birmingham City winger Chris Burke next month. Former Rams boss Nigel Clough wanted Burke on board when he was in charge. But a summer move was shelved when Birmingham took up their one year option on the player. Burke’s St Andrew’s deal runs out this summer though. And new Derby manager Steve McClaren is expected to continue the club’s pursuit. McClaren has steered Rams into fourth place in the Championship since taking over from Clough. And he will want to keep that momentum going by adding key January signings. Burke turned 30 this week but is considered to be one of the best wingers in the Championship. Birmingham boss Lee Clark will not want to lose any more key players this season after seeing star men like Nathan Redmond and Curtis Davies sold last summer. But the club’s dire financial situation means that Burke may be one of the few players at St Andrew’s who could fetch decent money. Derby are on the up and will consider a bid for the Scot once the window opens. McClaren has already said wants to sign Tottenham’s Simon Dawkins on a permanent deal next month. Dawkins has impressed while on loan at the iPro Stadium. - http://www.sportsdirectnews.com/football-news/36933-derby-target-brum-winger.php?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter#.UqHNlvRdWFc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duracell Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 What an appalling piece of sports writing. He's stuck very strictly to one sentence per line, hasn't he? It's just a list of bland sentences. He's a good player though. I wouldn't mind him in our team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

San Fran Van Rams Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 There are no quotes or revealing info in that article. Possibly the laziest journalism I have seen... When has McClaren ever mentioned buying Burke??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harrydean98 Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 I'd be happy with him, would he get in the team at the minute though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Srg Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Don't think we would be interested. It was Clough who was. Not SMc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davenportram Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Don't think we would be interested. It was Clough who was. Not SMc Same with Keane too though. Maybe Mclaren might agree with Cloughs assesment that he's the type of player that could improve the squad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoungUttoxRam Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 He'd be terrible, mate who hasn't missed a Brum game in 5/6 seasons (I pity him very much) said he's had it, legs seem to have gone for that burst of pace he used to destroy teams with!
