Daz_The_Ram Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Conor has a sausage head, and no mistake He scored for Ipswich ... even though he tried his best to miss it. Don't knock him ... I always said he was world class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duracell Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 I just don't get it. We have one of the best players in that position in the league - well, the best IMO. But he has one bad game, and then he's called lazy. He goes down easily, then his diving nature breaks down too many moves. He gives his team-mates a bit of a lip about passing the ball to his feet, then we have to dig up his past personal life. Why can't we just shut up and enjoy watching him play? I can't remember us doing this with Rasiak. What really bugs me is that we'll sell him, and then for years the fans will be going on about us needing to sign a "Martin-type player".

That is sadly the nature of an awful lot of Derby fans mate ... very fickle indeed. Plenty used to give Stevie Howard pelters early in his Derby career for being a 'nearly man' ... the same happened to Hulse because he wasn't a 'battler' and 'only scored goals'. You soon find out who has, or hasn't got a clue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOB BIGGS Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 "Mardy Martin" and "Keogh the Great Blamer" - 2 of our best players showing they care. Not much wrong with that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calm down big fella ... it was just an observation that's all. I didnt see this side to him last season so thought i would see what everyone else thought about it.

IlsonDerby Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Always thought he was 'hungry' Mardy but against Cardiff just before half time he went mental at Forsyth and when the ref blew for halftime he picked the ball up and volleyed it towards Forsyth whilst shouting at him. That was over the line for me but I respect that he wants to win but has to respect his team mates otherwise it could cause friction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CornwallRam Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Well I've just seen him in Spondon Asda with his family - he wasn't being at all mardy. In fact he looked quite pleased with himself. He looks pretty beefy on the pitch, but he's built like an outside toilet close up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i-Ram Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 I think you will find all that is happening is he is morphing into a fully formed Scotsmen. Many are born that way, Martin is simply evolving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VulcanRam Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 I saw him at Asda Spondon as well. I was near him when he asked his missus to get some semi-skimmed milk. When she came back with full fat he flung his arms up in the air and walked off, chewing.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
