Blocks their pathway to the first time. We're supposed to be on an economy drive but nothing that comes out of the club surprises me. Completely contradictory If they're good enough they'll play. Most people wanted Elsnik to play a role this season but he's now in League Two. I'm not saying he couldn't do well here, but I'd have expected him to get a better club than Swindon. Max Bird is 16. It would be completely unreasonable and unfair on the player to expect him to step up this season. Signing a player who is ready, on a short-term deal would be the best scenario for us. After all the money we've spent, we're a couple injuries away from relying on a 16-year-old to start in the Championship - and some will still expect top six.

Gypsy Ram Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 I don' think any rational Derby fan can expect promotion this season. Just Gary and the players need to stop going on about it. Hopefully they will now. @Kernow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramarena Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 Well this looks like a bit of a cluster****! Not good, but not the end of the world- look's like a certain Callum Guy is in the right place at the right time, maybe he will take the chance when it comes and we will be glad it turned out this way. I bet a certain man with a bald head and goatee is ****ing his sen right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clarkeram7 Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 I saw Callum Guy play a last year for Port Vale and he's a good player! Certainly worth getting on the bench and having a few 15 mins run outs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SolihullBlue Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 Birmingham fan here. Back again This good be a blessing in disguise for yourselves, believe me. Unless you were crying our for a centre midfielder that sticks their foot and runs all day, but does very little else, you may have dodged a bullet. I said before that he had already slipped down the pecking order, so if you want an idea of how good he is you should all pay attention to how many times he plays for us under Redknapp. He's probably 5th in the centre midfield pecking order. No doubt you'll go back for him in January. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly worth getting on the bench and having a few 15 mins run outs That's good to know and I hope he takes his chance if he gets it. My worry is that he might have to play a hell of a lot more than the odd 15 minutes, given our injury record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Read this board mate we could disagree if the world was flat or not. It is flat of course, otherwise we would fall off.. Everyone knows that, even in Brum?

DRBee Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 That there is this amount of fuss over a player none had heard of two weeks ago shows how low how aspirations are and how desperate we are for additions to the squad. It's like we've gone in the sweet shop and couldn't afford a box of chocolates and have tried to snatch a smartie on our way out and dropped it before it reached the gob.

I'm not sure the frustration is to do with the player, certainly mine isn't. The frustration is to do with us chasing a midfielder in David Davis all summer, tabling a poultry last minute 1.5 million bid which is nothing in today's market. During the time of that being rejected we send out Bryson and Butterfield. Elsnik I kind off understood, until Bryson left too Then, we finally sign a midfielder, anyone would have done at that point and it turns out to be an Esteban Fuertes all over again. Had we bid 2 million for Irvine at the start of the window we could have got him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
