Gary Teale Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 BEN Pringle has signed a new deal with Derby County. The 21-year-old midfielder has been handed an 18-month contract taking him through this season and next, and the club have a further year's option on the player. Pringle has made 15 appearances this season, four of them starts. He is captain of the Reserves and scored in yesterday's totesport.com League Cup win at Walsall. Derby are likely to take up an option on defender Jake Buxton, whose current deal is due to expire this summer. Striker Chris Porter is also out of contract at the end of the season, as is midfielder Robbie Savage, who is to retire from playing. Thirty-four-year-old striker Michael Boulding played as a triallist for the Reserves at Walsall. He scored in the 2-0 victory and played the whole game. Boulding joined Barnsley last summer in a bid to earn a contract but he has now left the Oakwell club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asanovic Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 I don't think he's ready to become a first team regular but given time this could be a good decision... especially if we can't buy anyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerbyRam! Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 he is absolutely quite shocking - in a bad way bad choice here clough he'll never get into the first team and even when he does he doesn't play that good should of let him go/sold him to reduce the wages further and then spend those wages on a better calibre of player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boycie Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 well, you need reserves, and he's the captain of them. You can't have first team players in the whole squad, or there'd be some unhappy players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't have first team players in the whole squad, or there'd be some unhappy players.I may be old fashioned, but to me reserves are reserves for the first team, Pringle isn`t, and never will be, IMO. So for me its a complete waste of what little cash we have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ambitious Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 I think he is a decent player, he does well for the reserves so what to say he won't make the first team? I can't see him being a key player but maybe getting a run in the team and offering something. I believe him to be a good league one/standard championship player.

dcfcdavecov Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 I know the son of the ex ex Ilkeston Town chairman (not the bad one) He reckons he was offered about £2000 a week at Derby. He's definately worth that. 21 and still learning. He's only been full time for 18 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats around 400 peoples hard earned season ticket money, for a conference north player, he is NOT good enough and never will be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What i am saying, is that if he achieves them, then he is definately worth that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boycie Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 He's learning still. He's got good stamina, just not worked out too well for him when given a chance. We've let players go from the stiffs, so he must be better than some in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stive Pesley Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Don't forget that on top of his wages from Derby he still has the money from his paper round to factor in to his total earnings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, don't be silly. His paper round money off sets his Beano and Dandy subscriptions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
