Comrade 86 Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Sorry to see that Kasey won't be joining us but I guess securing Mason's services put an end to his chances of a return to Derby. Struck me as a really nice, polite lad who seemed to want to play for us. Don't think he was ever 100% fit last season and still often looked the best player on the park. Maybe he'll be back some time but in the interim, I hope he has a decent time of it at Blackburn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did that with van der Laan, 6 months before he signed for us I was chanting gypo at him when we played a midweek game against Port Vale at the BBG.

The trick is to man mark and he disappears. We've got one of those already....as in dead for about 80 years and hasn't played for about 100.......?

He looked so much better once he shaved his head...and that's coming from a Madras eating, lager drinking straight guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure frank and jody would have snapped him up,if they really wanted him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firstly, Frank was going to sign him until Mount made it clear he'd play in the Championship. Even Kasey thought he was coming back. As for last season, he didn't really get a chance to shine but was clearly streets ahead of most of the side in terms of raw technical ability and just the kind of player you'd think Frank could nurture. You may not rate him but I reckon he's a great signing for Blackburn if only until Xmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone was just looking way too much into his Instagram posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even then he managed two goals and two assists. I also don’t understand the concept of ‘didn’t do enough’. Signing players based off of what they’ve done is lazy, it’s why I have my concerns over Marriott, it’s what caused us to spunk £25,000,000 up the wall. You sign players based on what they are.

Would have thought he'd have been good cover for Mason and Bryso myself as an injury to either wouldn't be ideal. Can't blame Kasey though!

Maybe the young man wants to play a bit more regularly than cover for those two! Having watched Mount in two friendlies he looks streets ahead of Palmer. I hope he does well at Blackburn, with the usual exceptions of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VulcanRam Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 Didn't think he'd come to us after the signings we have made, but if I'm honest I thought he'd end up somewhere better than Blackburn. Deffo a step down from where he's played the last couple of seasons (unless they've suddenly become play off contenders, which I doubt). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
