Tyler Durden Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 Well, well, well. Keogh could still have been playing for us if he had decided to take the reduction in wages during his rehabilitation period. Wonder if the new wages he's got at MK Dons is more than the gap in his earnings and the offer Derby made to him. Anyhows wish him all the best,hopefully he's had time during his rehab to consider his behaviour and learn from it going forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nottingram Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 Hope he does really well there, as I’m sure he will. He made a mistake and I believe was badly advised after it, but I still hope he can get close to his previous levels and excel at a new club.

Despite the end, despite the QPR mistake, despite the mistakes at critical points in sooo many matches, he was a good player for us and I wish him very well.

hintonsboots Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 Wish him all the best. He always gave 100% in a Rams shirt and I will always respect him for that. Think MK Dons have a fairly wealthy owner, they could be in the Championship before long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomsdubs Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 Made his mistakes but you could never question his commitment on the pitch. Had some great games for us, hope he can finish his career on a good note because he doesn't deserve the level of hate he gets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adios I mean, he’s 33 and still injured Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes we could end up playing them in the 21 - 22 season but it won't be because they have gained promotion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rab a dab doo Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 So the 'Road to Keogh' led down the M1 to the MK Don's. (Hope he wasn't driving) sorry bad taste . Good luck to him, a great servant for the club, pity it all ended the way it did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who knows, but more to the point, did he get a payout/compensation agreement for effectively being sacked? If he had just taken the reduced contract offer he may/probably have been worse off.

Oddly the DET said it was a 'free transfer' - maybe an agreement was made over the charges? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wish him luck, no ill feeling. Just glad the saga has come to end and we don't have to spend the summer debating if the club should take him back or not. Self inflicted that's a ridiculous statement! Yes misguided or ill advised, but under the influence who has not made poor decisions. Also I in no way think he has been lucky to find a new club, rather I think there were probably numerous offers on the table. Keogh is not innocent in what happened, but the club in my eyes took a very poor decision in their actions relating to all three players, keeping the two main protagonists and sacking Keogh. Morally I find their stance indefensible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So playing the number of games he did as an International I agree he was always highly regarded by those that managed him, always picked him, never sold him, virtually always played/picked him. Amazing injury record and absolutely always gave 100% in every game!. When you watch Keogh leave the field after a game, how I wish all our players had given the same amount of effort and commitment he gave, he was ungainly at times yes, but that belied his quality. So many armchair managers who berate him, when name me a manager at Derby who didn't play him, go on I dare you, oh I forgot you know more than them ---------------------- ALL OF THEM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
