Otherwise I can’t see why he wouldn’t wait until the summer and see which option is the best. He clearly doesn’t feel any strong feeling for Derby anymore, otherwise you’d think he would have waited to see what league we’re in then signed a new deal if we got promoted. Doesn't feel any strong feeling for playing in PW's midfield, maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ripleyram88 Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Don't know why people are having a go at birdy, his style of play is the antithesis of Warne's. Whilst he's the manager at the club we are going to continue to see proper footballers leave and be replaced by cloggers.

MaltRam Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Best midfielder at the club. Leaving as won't sign a new contract. Good fee. Keep the player for the rest of the season. He came through the ranks, stood by us when we were on our arse, does his best, good egg arond the place, getting a bigger wage in a higher division, club doesn't lose out. Max Bird comes out well, Derby County come out well. Moaners, please shush. I'm embarrassed by you.

CBRammette Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Really sad he's going but unsurprised. Stuck with us when others forced moves. Dont get the vitriol at all - Knight didnt get it did he? Will be so upset for him if he gets hostility at Pride Park - hoping twitter is full of fools who arent old enough to go to matches unaccompanied. Just hope we dont waste the money OoooMarkWright, LeedsCityRam, derbydaz22 and 6 others 4 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hintonsboots Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Good move for Max and Manning will get the best out of him. Analogous to Harry Styles leaving One direction, as our style of play is one directional. strawhillram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Day Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 2 hours ago, Ambitious said: Returns on loan, but didn’t want to sign a new deal. I hope the lad plays a blinder for the rest of the season otherwise he’ll be getting dogs abuse from fans. We should’ve just taken whatever more we could’ve got and let him go. Reached this post and yeah, that’s the thought here. No need to read on. Lads out of contract, wants out and we get a fee, great. That loan though, could turn nasty as he’s been getting some pelters already. Bird and Knight was the midfield 2 I wanted to see, if I’m honest though, Knight felt a bigger loss. That’s not to say it’s always a bit sad to see an academy player leave. We’ll move on though. Mucker1884, bcnram and jono 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just hope we dont waste the money Knight had a better track record than Bird as a player to push for a move, left nothing in the tank every match and stayed till it was clear what division we were in before making a decision to leave. I can see a fair few differences in the scenario myself. I'm not bothered about him going, but I can see a difference. Chester40 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SparxTheRam Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 6 minutes ago, valakari said: Because Warne's brand of football doesn't suit Bird, ( or indeed Hourihane)...or any other talented midfield player....or for that matter, most of the fans! Well, perhaps that's because the fans seem to think that we are in the championship, near the top and should be playing McLaren era football..... We arent, we are in League One and we are fighting to get out, and Warne, like it or not has us very near the top of the table with a very good record over the last quarter of the season. I'd love for us to play like we did with Russell and Thorne and Ward and Martin, all of those players but sadly that's not gonna get us out of that league and sadly we can't afford those players nor will they want to play in league one even if we are Derby County. Quality players will impact games within a coaches instruction.... I don't know where everyone seems to get this kick and rush idea from but that isn't how we play, look at the stats, Bird and Hourihane have more than enough opportunity to influence the game from where they are. They still take corners (occasionally badly) and they still have shots at goals (occasionally badly) and they still pass the ball (occasionally badly) all of which are midfielders bread and butter no matter the formation or the league or the instruction. The payers we have are not held back by Warne, they are just not quite as good as they were, playing in a side that isn't as good as it was, in a league that's full of pressing and tackling and chasing. Bird is a quality player, is young and I think will be much better in a championship side, it's a shame it won't be with us but I can't blame him, he's stuck with us through pretty much everything and deserves his shot, there's no guarantees in football so go while you can.
