Mel didn't buy the club until 2 years after and only invested at the end of that season (just before the play off final).

Ghost of Clough Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 A few people have their timings out. To summarise: Sept '13 - Clough Sacked May '14 - Mel buys shares in Derby County (around 20%) Sept '15 - Mel takes full ownership of Derby County Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genuinely found Pearce one of the nicest Footballers I have spoken to over the years. Real genuine guy. If he can’t be replaced so be it.

Stive Pesley Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 3 hours ago, LazloW said: Probably a stupid question, but if a CB as cover is such a priority then why was Pearce sent out on loan? Even if Frank thought we could do better in that department wouldn't it have made more sense to keep hold of him until a replacement was secured? If the plan is to bring in a CB to challenge for a first team spot, then it makes a bit more sense as I don't think Pearce would've been in the frame (not that I thought he was a bad player). However, I would've thought identifying a player like that, who is available, would be both difficult and expensive. FWIW, I'm not that concerned about that position and am not going to be tearing my season ticket up if nobody comes in. Just seems an odd thing for us to have done in the context of what is now being said. It's a good point. I'm assuming that there is no recall for Pearce if one of Keogh/Tomori gets injured or suspended. The big problem must surely be that available CBs are rare, and those that are available are in the shop window because they aren't first choice at their club. So why would they come here to also sit on the bench? When we had Curtis and Pearce fit they weren't getting regular games. What are the emergency loan rules these days? We only really need cover if we lose Keogh or Tomori Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

erathirea Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 To be fair, I think the answer was probably yes. We clearly had interest in the Ipswich chap, but Ipswich didn't want him to go, we couldn't come to an agreement, and under the terms of his current loan deal, we were scuppered. I can certainly understand the frustration of a few on here that, despite loaning out Pearce a few week's ago, we didn't have something more concrete lined up, but at the same time, it's hard to bring in a loan as a backup, and we clearly didn't have the cash (unless we'd made a sale or two) to push through a bigger loan fee or smaller transfer for such a purpose. My assumption (and that's all it is) is that we saw the opportunity to save some money on Pearce, thinking we'd probably be able to cover it later in the window when more loans went out etc. We identified one or two targets, hoping we'd get them nearer the end of the window, but as we didn't manage to make any actual sales, it limited our options. As has been mentioned elsewhere, we're probably short a centre back (although we do have a couple who could possibly do a short term job as backup), but we do still have the opportunity to bring in free transfers. Younes Kaboul, for example, has been mentioned, and I can't think of many better free options on a 6 month contract than him! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramboy63 Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Were asking for trouble one injury to either centre back and were up poo street. Looks like FFP may be the issue but if not FL is not going to keep putting up with this,yet another midfielder bought in for what reason lord only knows and we have no cover at centre back and little cover at right back,ludicrous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
