But perhaps Mr Jota wants to go to a club just because they pay him more money, more than we think he's worth. Alternatively, of course, perhaps Steve Nicholson is correct and he was never on our target list anyway, whatever he wanted. All I recall of my 2 years spent in Brum were curries in the Balti triangle and the big Christmas Market. Attractions are a bit thin on the ground in Brum, but I'm sure a fair wedge of the folding stuff would be adequate compensation - or perhaps it is the chance to play at the Estadio de Small Heath Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ViewsFromTheMiddle Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Birmingham are trying to get a bigger squad than their neighbours it seems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodley Ram Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 It's a Harry squad cast the net far and wide and bankrupt the club? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cosmic Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Feel like we should be able to compete with Birmingham when it comes to signing players. I hope this was more a case of us sticking to our guns around a player's value and club wage structure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

superzak Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Looks like we are in for a long hard season . Chiropractors in derby are going to make a fortune as 30,000 fans get bad necks from looking up lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramleicester Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Derby County. Small club no ambition no signings no clue no hope. Prepare for mid table (i hope) mediocrity. Pathetic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my opinion... And as previous quoted by a fellow forum member...... paying the price for poor purchases in the last 2/3 seasons. Sooner the better as contracts expire and the crap removed from our club - can we move on. We have players from 3/4 managers in 2 years! (Approx) (I've had a JD) (double) (Hic)...

Im afraid our days of being the championship big spenders have come and gone. Its not sustainable to keep spending big money year after year. Our best chance of going up.has been and gone.

GadFly Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Judging by the reactions on this post, I can only assume that Jota is the only player in the world with any ability, and we've missed out on signing him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
