MackworthRamIsGod Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 I have just listened to the Radio Derby phone in last night. If you haven't listened to it, head onto BBC Sounds and listen to the first 15 mins or so. Darren Robinson, our former Coach and Analyst, certainly knows what he is talking about when it comes to recruitment. I have a sneaky feeling he will be back at the club in the not too distant future.

He wasn’t part of the much criticised (and I’m sure partly mythical) ‘recruitment team’ under various previous managers was he? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerbyRevolution Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 Worryingly he thinks we are failing in this area, or have missed a trick on a few players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B4ev6is Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 I think he thinks certain players but I personal think that he needs to meet our new players and not judge them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlyBritishMidland Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 He was the co-commentator on Saturday. I really enjoyed listening to him in the build up and during the game. I think he said he was here in the late ‘90s/early ‘00s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you're saying there's a chance of him joining us again and a chance we'll sign the next Igor, Eranio, Assanovic, Biano, Wanchope and Poom?? ariotofmyown and Carl Sagan 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ewe Ram Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 He was like a machine, churning out facts and figures. In the end I got exhausted listening and switched off europia, Comrade 86 and Jayram 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyB Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 It sounded to me like he was in a job interview hoping the club were listening! Ewe Ram and europia 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly what I thought. But makes a change from listening to an ex player that although knew where the onion bag was, is absolutely woeful as a co commentator.

Loughborough Ram Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 To be fair he has done several co-commentator stints on Radio Derby before Saturday, so I doubt that he will have considered this as his 'opportunity' to sell himself to the club all of a sudden.

Rambalin Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 Darren worked at a few clubs including with Rowett at Birmingham and now runs his own scouting buisness iscout.
