Albert Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 We've made it public we've given our captain a contract, which hasn't been signed as of yet. Why? Makes you wonder what's going on behind the scenes.Negotiation on contracts? These things can take time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North_Stand_Ram Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 You're making it sound like we're in turmoil. How so? He's the only starter left with a year left on his deal and he's our captain. It makes you wonder, doesn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddie Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 we could do with him throwing it to himself in the box... (if keough's header on satdee was anything to go by) He's quick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North_Stand_Ram Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Negotiation on contracts? These things can take time. It's been months now. Time, yes, but it's been a long time now. Maybe Keogh is waiting till deadline day? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dimmu Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Ah, you say that Eddie, but with SM's coaching - who knows? He seems to have made forsyth a yard quicker. And granty into a better goalie... I get semi when I hear SM coaching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramarena Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 He's got a huge throw too... would be nice to see us mix things up with it every now and again We can't capitalise on corners so a huge throw ain't much use to us. We really need to address the set pieces, both defensively and attacking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Teale Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 We can't capitalise on corners so a huge throw ain't much use to us. We really need to address the set pieces, both defensively and attacking. He is 6"3 so he should help there. Also he played under pulis so will be good in the air Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phoenix Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 He's got a huge throw too... would be nice to see us mix things up with it every now and again It's a hugely powerful weapon, a long throw, at any level. They had a bloke at Buxton a couple of seasons ago called Mark Roberts. Obviously different level and probably smaller pitches, but his throws from anywhere from the line of the penalty area onwards were like corner kicks to the far post. As you say, you have to mix it up or it becomes predictable, but it's mighty effective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has come on a treat, and will undoubtably make a league player. He can throw the ball beyond the far post and he causes mayhem with it. Superb header of the ball and would make a good addition to the development squad, although I would be sorry to see him leave Halifax. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the few times that Jewell ever pulled a managerial cat out of the bag was in the league cup win at Stoke. Whenever Stoke had a long throw, Derby didn't pack the area - quite the opposite in fact, as we kept 2 or 3 players on the half way line, thus allowing the keeper easier access to the ball.
