Chris Peduck Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 From today's Glasgow Evening Times Interesting, but please spare me several pages of fish puns: Derby County are ready to launch a £400,000 bid for Kilmarnock striker Conor Sammon, with a host of Championship clubs waiting in the wings to lure the Irishman south. Sammon looked set to quit Rugby Park last week when Killie accepted a bid from Ssausagehorpe. However, the Irish striker turned down the chance to move to Glanford Park. Derby boss Nigel Clough had Sammon watched as he netted his 17th goal of a prolific campaign against Dundee United on Saturday, and could now make a bid for Killie’s top scorer. However, he could face competition from Championship rivals Sheffield United, Nottingham Forest, Watford and Burnley. Meanwhile, Kilmarnock have signed Swindon Town left back Callum Kennedy on loan for the remainder of the campaign as a replacement for Ben Gordon. The young left-back has returned south after his loan from Chelsea was not extended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ambitious Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 I've heard he is tall, strong and pacy... never seen him play but thats the description I got.. so by all accounts sign him now, without even thinking about it.. just go for it!

p.shilton Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 400k for commons- that takes the p!ss!. I would rather make him rot in the reserves til the summer if he ain't going to sign a new contract. Scottish football would suit him though as it is of a poor standard and he could get away with returning to his default setting of "lazy bast*rd" whilst earning big money.

Or get 400k and he is off the books Hmmmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hucknall Ram Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conor_Sammon Hummmmmm, this is his only season where he scored goals, the last 5 seasons has been hit and miss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdinburghRam Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conor_Sammon Hummmmmm, this is his only season where he scored goals, the last 5 seasons has been hit and miss. still 24 though. Before this season very few up here rated him, but seems to be doing alright this season and is sort of striker we need. for 400k I'd snap him up, would still be looking for more for Commons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
p.shilton Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 no, rot until this summer when his contract is up. I would rather him sign a new deal and stay but it is really peeing me off that he said that he wants to stay well before christmas and here we are at the end of Jan and still no signature. Just proves to me that all he cares about is money and it would be nice to scupper a lucrative deal for him. 700k is the least I'd be happy with- he's been rubbish for the last month or so anyway and isn't helping his chances of a better contract offer at Derby with the performances he is putting in. He obviously would rather wipe his ar*e on the derby shirt than sign a contract that is less than he may be offered elsewhere. Just be nice to see him even fatter, not match fit and out of contract at the end the season and see how much he gets offered then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be looking for more like 700k though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why should he sign a new contract. He owes us nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
