TuffLuff Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 It was probably the right time for him to leave, but let's have a little moment to remember his best moments in a Derby shirt. I'll start it off: See you down the road, the Lanarkshire Legend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alph Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Was never a big fan but his standout season was very enjoyable. Partnership with Martin was a joy to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Sheriff Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 It's just a loan right now... right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich84 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Surely 5-0 Forest is top of the (felled) tree! Assuming loan as no time to get permanent deal done in time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RamuelLJackson Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 I remember when he was just five years old, he was such a wee little fellow... a bit like he is now... and he had no front teeth... a bit like he is now... and he ran around energetically all day without going anywhere... a bit like he does now. He did like chopping down trees though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BramcoteRam84 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Rowett has said on Rams TV he's got rid because we didn't have offers for other players he wanted to shift. Several highlights against Forest. Had a bit of bite at times in those games as well Red Dogs I know hate him and for that reason I will always love him. Great servant, value for money most definitely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uttoxram75 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Top player, needed to be given the freedom to get forward at every opportunity. 15 goals from a midfielder only for successive managers to play him deeper... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mafiabob Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 I'm guessing @valleyram has gone to the bluebirds forum as part of the deal..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadioactiveWaste Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 First time i saw him play for us live was (i think) v Leeds and we won 1 nil and he was something else that day - loved him ever since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carl Sagan Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 I have the boots he wore for that tree-felling hat-trick. And what small feet he has! A top, top guy and it's typical of his generosity that he was prepared to part with them. Wish him well - he's been a great servant. Maybe he'll surprise some of you and come back stronger? He loves the club but has gone because he wants to play regular football and I think that's always something to be commended. And it wouldn't surprise me at all to see Cardiff finish above us this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dimmu Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Mr. Deforestation. Class act, but lost his confidence and those niggling injuries really ruined his sharpness. All the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBG83 Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Ironically, he's been a huge part of a Derby team striving for promotion - and has now gone to Cardiff who have a manager who will get the best out of him again and no doubt take Cardiff up. I only hope he returns at the end of his spell, fit and with a know how on how to take a team up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder what would have happened if Mel had picked Warnock instead of Pearson last Summer. That was supposedly the choice he had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most hate him but I'm sure when he's your own manager he's brilliant fun. We'd have gone up under Warnock I'm sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cosmic Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Remember when Russell signed and they were saying how Bryson took the time to pick him up and show him around the club and the city. Sounds like a proper decent bloke and the sort of attitude/character every football club needs around. Can see what Clough saw in him in that respect. A proper club player. He loves Derby County. Hope to see him around the club in years to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I seem to remember Warnock had just left Rotherham after keeping them up, and considering his retirement? Just read his Wikipedia page, and it is glorious. Anyway, back on topic - it would have to be Deforestation Day. His partnership and understanding with Martin was a joy to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
