Only thing Martin had was his link up play, when was the last time we saw that? Great finishing? Wouldn't say so, very good player, but needs loads of chances for 1 goal. Potentially could have scored 30-40 last season. If he improves his finishing and time of running, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fee being reported is utter madness and would be a final nail in the coffin to everything we'd tried to do prior to Mel Morris joining. Makes me sick how we've become some sort of QPR mark II. I was a proud supporter of a club doing it 'the proper way' and it made it all the more better than we endured five years of cost-cutting and squad building to finally have such a vibrant team at our disposal.

Comrade 86 Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 7 minutes ago, Bris Vegas said: Where did I say I will drop the club because of who they are signing? It's not the who which bothers me, it's the utter ridiculous sums of money being thrown about. I know it's easy to say it's not my money, but it's the signs we're giving off which annoys me. Being a Derby fan since the mid 90s, I've always seen us as a respected club and I was proud to see us produce such good footballing times (be it only briefly in the grand scheme of things) against the odds on small budgets. I really don't like how we've created a massive problem for ourselves by ridiculous spending, and as a means of getting ourselves out of the mess we created, we're spending ridiculous amounts again. QPR mark II. And I loathed QPR for what they did. Errr.... it would have been your comment 'I may just stop supporting Derby for a while' which gave me hope fella Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duracell Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 If we sign Kodija for the money being reported, I think I may just stop being ginger for a while. Oooooh, I'm angry! That'll show em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enjoy then. Don't you have anything better to do, such as support your team? Can never understand why 'fans' join opposition boards purely to goad or gloat. We're signing one of Bristol City's best players, regardless of the price I doubt many are 'laughing' at the news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True but we've seen it's not something we can really rely on, we need a method of playing where we can rotate and change players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see where you're coming from and I think the quality of our chances created definately do need to improve, but I see that as more of a tactical issue with the repeated HOOF it upfield from the back every time. But the fact of the matter is we've had something like 100 shots so far this season and only managed one goal which has to suggest a problem with the strike force as well as the midfield. Tbh were in a mess atm from the middle of the park and up and new striker will help the issues, but not totally solve them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
