uttoxram75 Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 Squad size isnt just a money thing as well. Its more easier to keep say 24/5 players happy and hungry than it is 30 will forest be able to keep Andy Reid hungry? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smiffy Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 Savage: 14k a week BBQ sauce: his autobiography Pringle: £5 a week HP sauce: couldn't afford petrol money to get to Torquay and back so had to turn back halfway there. personally i'd put Tyson on nothing, with a goal scoring bonus of 574646464 million pounds. Few conditions; can't score against us, can't score of his arse. Shouldn't have to pay a penny.I would be astonished if Pringle was on much more than 1k a week, with maybe extra for appearances Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CumbrianRam Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 Don't think Porter was on that much either, with a career of Bury, Oldham Athletic & Motherwell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcfcdavecov Posted July 5, 2011 Author Share Posted July 5, 2011 I would be astonished if Pringle was on much more than 1k a week, with maybe extra for appearances He was on £5 a week. I know this because the previous owners (not the bad ones) of Ilkeston Town son told me how much he was on there and roughly what Derby offered. It wasn't a grand a week.

dcfcdavecov Posted July 5, 2011 Author Share Posted July 5, 2011 We have 30 players, that's huge for a Championship IMO even if 25 are GK's in Clough's plans. We've got a whole month before the season kicks off and just 3 targets remaining. Fixed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Day Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 So in your opinion 30 is not a big squad for the Championship? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcfcdavecov Posted July 5, 2011 Author Share Posted July 5, 2011 We don't have a squad of 30. We have 6 Gk's in that, Callum Ball, O'Brien, Hendrick. That's 9 who are Gk's or youth team players. IN MY OPINIONAY(although it is fact) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smiffy Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 Just fixed that for you So do you believe that Clough was told to trim the budget from the outset ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Day Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 It's actually 34 if you include the likes of Hendrick, Severn, Atkins Also doesn't matter what position they play as they still need paying, coaching and medical treatment. Having 6 goalkeepers is not good which is why we need to get rid before signing more players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcfcdavecov Posted July 5, 2011 Author Share Posted July 5, 2011 i make it 33, but that includes Addison and Varney. It also includes O'Brien, Connolly, Ball, Hendrick and 6 'keepers. That's 21, and then even that list would include Doyle, Buxton, Martin and the likes. Worrying times, we're relying on some cheap players gelling.

Day Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 It doesn't matter what position or if they are not in Cloughs plans, they are still Derby County players getting paid by Derby County, being Coached by Derby County and getting treatment by Derby County. Seeings as you are so good at counting, go and count how many other Championship clubs have a same size squad as us. That should keep you busy for half hour or so.

ramjam Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 I make it 29 currently 4 GKs (Fielding, Deeney, Legzdins and Bywater - assume Atkins is leaving on loan) 8 DF (Brayford, Roberts, Barker, Leacock, Anderson, Buxton, O'Brien and Shackell) 8 MF (Green, Pearson, Martin, Bailey, B Davies, Hendrick, Bryson and Croft) 9 FW/ST (S Davies, Robinson, Ward, Cywka, Varney, Doyle, Ball, Tyson and Maguire) Could assume 5 or 6 might be leaving though with possibly 2 or 3 to come in as well.

BAHAHAHHA, the wages for Gk's we have will be a pittance(apart from Bywater), along with the youth players and Doyle, Martin, Buxton etc. Savages wage would have covered all them. If we have to send Severn, Addison, Atkins on loan, sell Varney, Pearson and Leacock to fund 2 or 3 more signings, i'd be a bit worried just how skint we really are.
