All the best to him. As someone else mentioned, at his very best, with everyone at their peak, the best player I've seen in a Derby shirt that I could fully appreciate. I was too young and watched games too infrequently to really enjoy the Jim Smith days. 

Thorne in the 13/14 season was certainly something I doubt I'll ever see at this level ever again. 

I just hope he can get back to it.

Been sat on a good wedge for a few years gets all the love poor old Keogh should be hoping for a long term injury will be easier on him ?

Really strange post.

If GT has not been playing due to him slacking then fair point.

If it's due to the fact he has failed to recover from a career threatening challenge then I think it's a bit harsh.

Still blame that pratt Wassall for playing him in that meaningless league game against Ipswich when we were already playing Hull in the play offs! ?

Wassall’s reasoning was ok but the challenge was utterly dreadful - yes we could and probably should have rested many for that meaningless game but we didn’t and I am sure we wouldn’t have lost that first game against hull never mind 0-3 without that injury and who knows we may even have won the play offs but that’s football and derby county luck

Reckon GT might be a bit annoyed now as Luton's manager looks like he's going to Stoke.......

I'll be surprised if he goes there. He's got his team in with a decent chance of promotion and playing attractive football.

He'd probably 4x his salary going to Stoke. Big risk though to take on all those Premier league egos. Big risk for Stoke too, only in his first managerial job. For both those reasons I suspect he won't be the one.

Looks like the Luton manager will be announced as the new snake city manager today - it’s never simple being George Thorne is it 

just a quick thought - maybe the new manager will send us some stoke city money for him at some point?

If the latest reports are correct then that's Stoke shelling out another million in compo. They'll soon need an annual transfer AND manager compensation budget - couldn't happen to a better club and set of fans.
