The list of ex players that they wish a happy birthday to grows more random by the day. Today it was Matt Carbon, who I'm sure made a contribution, but apparently he only played 20 games for us in his Derby career. Played in the promotion game against Palace and is in one of the most iconic rams photos of recent times! Legend!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legend!!!!! Was that his debut. Can't remember who was injured. I do remember it was supposed to be a joint deal for Huckerby but we opted out at a million for the two. Him and Sturridge up front would have been the fastest partnership around, but perhaps a bit similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasnt it Yates missed out after get injured a couple of games before? The game where we walloped Tranmere seems to stick In my memory for some reason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, Huckerby was the one we went to watch I think and then we wanted both, then wouldn't meet the 550k they wanted. Think that's why he's a red dogs best friend every time we play them. Got a bit jealous that his wing man went of with the girl he was really keen on and he was left with her annoying mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheron85 Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 Has there been any announcement about temporary contracts for the players who are out of contract at the end of June? I can't help thinking that if they haven't announced anything short term they must have the intention of trying to get those guys on longer contracts by the end of the month?

Sparkle Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 It still drives me nuts that we had chris Martin and Vydra under contract to our football club and we never played them together properly and I am convinced they would have bagged 50 goals a season between them. mind you we had Rory Delap and we never let him take a throw in ! Instead we played him at centre forward ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last paragraph: Quote Ikechi Anya's contract is up on June 30 and he will leave the club. The 32-year-old has not played for the first team in two years.

Martin likes to drop deep and lay it off, Vydra would start deep, turn and run with somebody ahead of him stretching the defence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wixman1884 Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 not posted on here in months, but it would typically be martin thread to pull me back in. I'd heard, maybe in commentary or something that relative to time on the pitch Martin is the top scorer in the league this season - does anyone else remember that or can confirm? I love the man more than anything in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but that assumes no other club comes in for them before the end of June I doubt they could play for anyone else in July but they could leave us at the end of their contract (should they so choose) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For us probably yes In the league absolutely no - There are at least 7 players on the league top scorers chart with a better mins per goal That said - He has 6 assists too which would put his mins per goal contribution around the highest in the league AND even is mins per goal is better than Grabban down the road who is the 3rd top scorer in the league Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
