I had tears in my eyes when he scored for us on his comeback. Singing his name from c stand. Some of my favourite times as a derby fan are from from the third division days.

Terrific striker. Lets hope Marriott can do as well as him for Derby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve How Hard? Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 26 minutes ago, Curtains said: I like the idea. Frank might not though. Did we really need to get the Chelsea player in on loan as a replacement for either Keogh or Davies when we had Pearce as back up. Frank needs to address this one way or the other. I like the idea too. I think Tomori(not sure why you keep addressing him as the Chelsea player though) is a different type of player to Pearce. More versatile to begin with and definitely a better ball playing centre half so in that respect he wasn't a bad addition in my eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More versatile to begin with and definitely a better ball playing centre half so in that respect he wasn't a bad addition in my eyes. For some reason I have difficulty with his name but yes Tomori who is on loan from Chelsea has done great since he signed and he is a good addition but he has made more competition for places and in some ways has made it harder on either Keogh or Davies the latter being injured and returned to fitness now to get in the team. Now that may be a problem in the respect of Frank not wanting to drop him and bring back Davies. Keogh also doesn’t deserve to be dropped so there is an issue and Pearce has always done well when called upon. I suppose there is a temptation for Frank to keep the status quo and not bring back Davies who is the Captain and that’s something I’m sure he will deal with. Whats best for the team though.

My goodness I rest my case. No more than throwing away a lead in the play off semi final. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curtains Posted October 14, 2018 Author Share Posted October 14, 2018 Last point on this.

The big spending didnt start until a year later. Steve spent hardly anything in comparison. I understand why you say we shouldn't discuss history, because you have no grasp of it.
