Comrade 86 Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 Personally I'd like to see Whelan join. Clearly he's not a replacement for Hughes but then I don't think he's intended to be. More of a Eustace type signing, I reckon. Be a shame if he doesn't come but perhaps the length of contract or the wages are not what is being offered elsewhere. Then again, maybe he just fancies Villa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coneheadjohn Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 Anyone who has to think about if they want to come to Derby or Villa should go to Villa. We need players who want to play for us,if he's got to think about it I don't want him. No disrespect to Villa. To many players have come to Derby for a big contract and an easy ride.

Day Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 Are we bringing back Dave Mackay now as well? I'm confused ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rab a dab doo Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 If he does not want to come for what ever reason, so be it. GR, I am sure must have other targets for every eventuality. Let's just wait and see, there nearly 2 months left before the summer transfer market closes. Plenty of time for a lot of things to happen.

Maybe we could tempt him to be the leader of our gang? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whelan is a hard man and we need that. You also said we must sign Wildschut because 'this lad will score goals, just you watch' and 'Derby never gamble anymore other than on old hasbeens like Nugent.' So now you've changed your tune and you do want us to sign old hasbeens such as Whelan? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jayram Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 1 hour ago, curtains said: Wasn't world class when we signed him he was off to Scotland to see out his Career when Brian nipped in and persuaded him to come to Derby after 2 broken legs. Dave MacKays list of honours by the time he joined Derby County: Heart of Midlothian Scottish League Division One (Scottish Premiership): 1957–58 Scottish Cup: 1955–56 Scottish League Cup: 1954–55, 1958–59 Tottenham Hotspur Football League Division One: 1960–61 FA Cup: 1960–61, 1961–62, 1966–67 European Cup Winner's Cup: 1962–63 FA Charity Shield: 1961 (won), 1962 (won), 1967 (shared) Scotland 22 appearances including appearance at the 1958 World Cup Glenn Whelens list of honours so far: Sheffield Wednesday Football League One play-offs winner: 2005 Stoke City Football League Championship runner-up: 2007–08 Ireland 81 appearances including 2012 & 2016 Euros I would suggest that Dave MacKay was a genuinely world class player throughout his career. Whelen may be many things but to suggest that he is in the same league as or would ever have the same impact as Mr Mackay had is ludicrous and an insult to the great man.

Is Whelan a has been that's you,re description and I don't agree neither does Steve Bruce. Wildschuts career is not over even though he didn't fit in at Norwich so we will see what happens with him as we will Nick Blackman As regards Nugent how much game time will he get next season we will see !
