Leeds Ram Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 the reason why utd didn't want savage is because savage is awful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Day Posted July 17, 2010 Author Share Posted July 17, 2010 True, but he still went on to have an alright career, hundreds of players were rejected from clubs and have gone on to lead decent careers. We're just giving the lad a trial, if he does well then why not give him a year and see how he gets on in the reserves. It's hardly a wrist slashable move, well I wouldn't think it was.

Day Posted July 17, 2010 Author Share Posted July 17, 2010 Update from fatty at the Pirelli, not the fitness coach I'm talking about Boycie....O'Brien played very well in the first half. I've now issued him scouting instructions for the 2 trialists that are taking Derby to the Blue Square. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leeds Ram Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 the important thing is we won no matter what the margain and there weren't any injuries Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Day Posted July 17, 2010 Author Share Posted July 17, 2010 Boycie: "That striker were ****! The Yank looked good. Is he the blak lad?" They are both strikers and the black lad is in fact Morgan-Smith, so I'm guessing that's who Boycie said "looked good". Have to wait for him to come online and grill him.

Leeds Ram Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 no morgan smith isn't the yank that's the 18 year old Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derbydan Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 thought he said the yank were cack?? my mate kyle said no.20 was one of the best players but he didn't know who it was so i assume that is one of the trialists Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Day Posted July 17, 2010 Author Share Posted July 17, 2010 I think Boycie thought the Yank was the black lad and that's who he thought looked good, but that was in fact Morgan-Smith. Earlier he said the yank had a shot that was high and wide and they chanted fecking useless, he may have got better after that.
