[size=4]Kelvin Mellor rejects Derby County for new Crewe Alexandra deal

[size=4]The Rams had hoped to sign the 21-year-old by offering him a three-year deal.[/size]

[size=4]However, Crewe responded by making an improved contract offer for the third time, which the former Nantwich Town player has now accepted.[/size]

Not sure I approve of Nigels childish ****-stirring.

"We had a good meeting with Kelvin, his dad and couple of representatives," Clough told BBC Radio Derby. "I think they spent quite a bit of the meeting telling us how utterly dismayed and dejected they were about his treatment at Crewe.

"Crewe put a year on the table which they felt was disrespectable in terms of the terms.

"When he turns round then and says he's going to stay at Crewe we're very surprised. He even got to the stage where he said he felt the manager was picking his son over Kelvin.

"It must be difficult for him going back to the dressing room after all the things he said to us. And then when everyone was starting back for pre-season he decided to go to Ibiza with his mates for five days."

We were told Bailey was the man as was Maguire and Ben Davies . Tyson , Martin , Pringle . ETC ETC . Clough is buying players in positions we have strengh aready . Where does Ward fit in now !

I am not saying you are wrong mate, I prefer to wait and see.

Mind you Pringle was a ridiculous signing, even for 50,000, he was not even the best player at Ilkeston at the time.

VERY Un-professional by Cloughie, should of just said,

We had talks with him, but he decided it was best to stay at Crewe.

This seems to suggest that by snubbing his team mates to go on holiday says a lot about his attitude. Maybe he isn't the right person for Derby.

Yeah but Nigel wanted to sign him despite obviously knowing of his holiday, he even knows where he's going!

So can't really judge him on that
