Absolutely yes Am I a little gutted he isn't coming back? Yes Would I have wanted us to break the bank to make it happen? No 100% agree, we still have a very capable front 5/6 obviously we’d all love Harry back but if the deal is really worth 2+ million for a loan it’s a lot of money in these conditions, I’d rather come January we sign a player permanently for that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScamRam Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 Best he moves to Cardiff quickly after he signs then as a ban comes into force from Friday evening for anyone travelling from a UK virus hotspot i.e. Liverpool!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't say no, just seems unnecessary when we have no in form striker. Ibe is a gamble though and we will see how he does 1 hour ago, Papahet said: Wow to say I’m disappointed is a understatement. Wheres all the cash gone from the sales of Bogle and Lowe? We got £8 million for the pair of them - we have signed jozwiak bryne Marshall Ibe Duncan and Richards with 3 youngsters for the under 23s - I would suspect it’s all been spent pretty much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mckram Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 I wish people would stop asking where the money went for Lowe and Bogle! We lose money every year. We have to offset the loses somehow and profit on players towards this is something we have to get used to until we get promoted and benefit from the riches of the Premier League (or parachute payments if we came back down!).

Lander Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 Eight of Wilson's goals came from set pieces, we know he's a good player but he won't be taking set pieces so perhaps the (probably decent chunk of) money is better spent on a player that adds to the team in an area that we don't currently have someone doing a job for?

sonofmidnight Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 Much as I like having a Derby man owning the club it appears little progress has been made and the only way to compete now with the big boys is for a mega mega rich Russian, sheikh or similar to come in and buy the club. Otherwise we are just going to continue being a mid championship or worse would be club. If people are happy with this great but it saddens me. Sorry for the negativity but it's how I see it.

Gaspode Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 £1M + £60K per week wages is an awful lot to gamble for a club in our position - realistically, we're pushing for the play-offs this season, not automatic promotion so it doesn't make sense to splash that much money. Cardiff will be aiming for top 2 and Wilson may be the difference for them - plus they've got the ridiculous parachute money to fritter away however they see fit. We're simply not in a position to compete financially with relegated teams.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woodley Ram Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 as much as I rate Harry and what he did here, I am in some ways glad as the money would be better spent on a striker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sonofmidnight Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 Let's face Derby is not an attractive club to be at nowadays. We are seen as a club with little ambition, a training base for academy players and the last base for aging players. As I've said before much is rotten in the state of football; a radical rethink is needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
