Thanks for the constructive response mind. ? He could have played in that following season as that was similar to the role he played for Croatia. He played further forward than normal in that first season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never really understood why he didn't get more game time with him, but I certainly remember Asanovic as a far more useful player for us than Kinkladze.

Asanovic was more consistent. But I didn't get to swim in Asanovics swimming pool when we were away at Bristol so I have mixed feelings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baiano, Eranio, Laursen, Poom and Wanchope getting the nod most games. Shame really because Ace was ace in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think your are mixing it up with the Non-EU rule, that meant Poom, Stimac and Wanchope being picked kept Solis out of the squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree on Baiano - he looked very, very good for a short while then just seemed to lose interest. Ace was an enigma and I can’t defend him really but when he was on it, he was unplayable. I just felt the guy was so talented - just temperamental as is often the case with flair players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theo Robinson's Derby career is one of life's enigmas. One of the worse players I have ever seen, yet scored more regularly than players that were far better players. His goal at Hull will always be the epitome of him, terrible air shot at a volley that sends defenders and keeper flying for the ball to fall at his feet inexplicably for a tap in.

Can’t believe Clough bombed him out when he did. He was on 9 goals by November and then only started twice more. Should have played him until the January, got him into double figures and sold!

Of the 5 games that followed to January he started 2 and was sub in 2. Looks like Ward and Tyson were available for games again (was going to say returned to fitness but were they ever fit? ?) We then signed Martin in Feb (?) and sent Robinson out on loan to Huddersfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
May Contain Nuts Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 I remember Robinson getting a rollocking because he revealed he'd been dropped via twitter before a game https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/19369397 I misremembered when it happened though, thought it was something which may have lead to his exit, but it was right at the start of the season. (I'd definitely forgotten we had Robinson, Sammon & Tyson all at the same time!) Classic Nigel Clough in that article though: Quote The Rams boss went on to dismiss Twitter as having a place in the lives of players. He said: "I've never been on any Twitter thing and I cannot see one benefit of players being on it. "If so-called celebrities want to pop on there and tell people what they're having for lunch then that's up to them. But, in sport, especially football, players will find it difficult to stick to non-football issues." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
