January 2022 - Transfer Window Rumours and Discussion

[Mr Meeseeks]

Festy Ebosele siging for Udinese on a free at the end of the season.

Another waste. Reo Griffiths and Josh Maja are two for example that shipped off to Europe and did nothing.

Surely Derby admin are more inclined to accept a low bid now rather than a free at end of the season.

Not in this case, free path straight to the prem. Udinese is just Watfords crèche. Even if he doesn’t do well there, they’ll still sign him then loan him to a champ squad. Free hit

Yeah, totally forgot about that link. Watford bound.

From what I've been told and have seen :

1) Not much evidence of Craig Hemmings having much involvement. More of a figure head it would seem.
2) Think we're ok for a year or two in terms of the £ 6m or so annual cash injection from the Hemmings family courtesy of TH's wishes to keep the show on the road but at the end of that they'll probably look to sell; don't sense any driving force there to stay involved.
3) Also and this is just my take, would be self defeating in terms of the value of the club I'd have thought not to continue the funding especially with an opportunity to properly sort out the squad and cost base at the end of the season. I know we've been here many times before but the golden upland of the Premiership is a massive draw and of course financial game changer; one last roll of the dice maybe wiht the new Management team ?

If they are thinking of offloading I think they may as well do it now.
Get Ridsdale doing what he his best known for.

They reckon there are three after Derby, they won’t all get them, maybe they could offload to one of them before someone else gets in there?

The obvious main targets have to be as follows.

GK x 2 (maybe 3) Ripley, Hudson released, Iversen back to Leicester, rumours about Rudd.
LWB
RWB
Striker.

Anything after this would surely be a One Out, One In with the focus being that the In is an actual 1st team improvement on the Out.

All Killer, No Filler.

Here's Filler (I think @Sepp Blatter will appreciate)...

Sounds just like my mates of the now defunct NYC Hardcore (NYHC) Band "Olde York". Seen them a few times (NYC, Berlin, Copenhagen).

@Muzza buy "Shallow World", it is one fucking immense album cha. Proper old skool NYHC (New York Hardcore).

Ted at 36 seconds! 😍 Also a homage if you see it to CBGBs which I have been in (1993) before its demise but also after (2019) and the artifacts inside are amazing!
