Animal is a Ram Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Russell certainly looks the business but if he does sign (and I have serious doubts whether or not he will) I wonder where we would play him, given the signing of Chris Martin to presumably play alongside Sammon. Hopefully right side in a front three.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nijul_cluff Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Where would that leave Wardy? On the injury table? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spike1969 Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Where would that leave Wardy? NC has already said that he intends to rotate his strikers more next season so it will probably be any 2 from 4 in any given game. He said that we had too many games this season when strikers were not fresh enough because they had been starting nearly every game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheron85 Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Well lets hope rush and cloughy can pull of a big signing! Is that the new negotiation technique Sam Rush bought in then? No wonder Granty was smiling when they asked him to pose for a photo... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In that case maybe he shouldn't have sent out Ball, Tyson and Robinson on loan then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can probably conclude that he thought a tired Ward, Sammon or Martin is better than a fresh Theo, Tyson or Ball Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodruffs Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 You can probably conclude that he thought a tired Ward, Sammon or Martin is better than a fresh Theo, Tyson or Ball Must have done. We will be fine once Martin and Sammon realise that the main job of a centre forward is to put the ball in the net. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Scarlet Pimpernel Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 Must have done. We will be fine once Martin and Sammon realise that the main job of a centre forward is to put the ball in the net. Football is a team game. Our team with Sammon scored 65 goals. Palace with Murray scored 73 goals & Blackburn with Rhodes scored 56 goals. If an addition such as Russell or Vaughan can give the team another few goals on top and a new keeper and central defender can keep a few out.................. Job done. Far too much emphasis on a prolific "Centre Forward" in my view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperSheep Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 So we won't officially sign him for 4 weeks? I've been checking news every feckin hour for this guy. I give up. :s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North_Stand_Ram Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 If Waghorn is the exciting striker Sam Rush has lined up, I'm going to give up. A long way to go yet. We may still get vaughan or Rusell. Give rush and co a chance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't be to disappointed but coming out publicly and stating that Vaughan and now Russell are our number 1 targets and then not signing either and signing a striker on what a believe is a free transfer would be quite annoying, especially considering Sam Rush did state the striker would be exciting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been swept up in a wave of hype from this forum about Russell so I'll be excited... But my dad won't know who the guy is... Does it count as exciting if you're talking about a guy who has had a single season as a striker in a very ordinary team in Scotland? He ain't exactly a household name...

Just not sure they're "exciting" signings to the average Derby fan? (Assuming we're all a bit too obsessed) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
