This is a comment put on popside:

Just asked me mackem mate about him - here's her reply: "I will personally pay his train fare and hotel bill for the ungrateful, selfish, lanky twat so that he won't have to put his hand in his own pocket."

I then asked why - her reply: "He won't go to supporters' functions or football in the community unless he gets paid. Brags about how much he gets paid for doing owt & tells fans to fcuk-off after games".


Hes good for the 2nd division, thats all!!!
 
Re: Jon Stead

Doubt he would have added anything to our squad anyway. There will be better loanees available in January I think.

True. We've already got Dichio to stand up front not scoring goals - we don't need another 'un.

Re: Jon Stead

so...... a top striker and then a target man, must be over six foot and not be able to score...........eh? Billy's formula again? History repeating?
 
Re: Jon Stead

See Neil (fat bastard) Mellor been a good signing, cant see him in the scoring charts??

Would you say 3 goals so far is a reasonable return for a 1 million pound outlay?

How many of your strikers have scored in the champions league?

Neil Mellor will easily provide value on his transfer fee, i have no worries about that and neither should you.

Have a nice day.

Another? How does that work then? Sorry if you lot are labouring under the impression we've had an awful start to the season, but we're only 2 points behind Preston, and it's our best start in 7 (yes, seven!) seasons.

I remember seeing posts on a derby forum saying how billy was clueless and get him out. The start you had was somewhat mildly disapointing to you if i remember rightly.To be fair pne never had the best of starts under davies then always put a run together to move up the table. I would to be honest have fully expected Derby to start well, with a new manager full new coaching staff, money to spend, new players. Plus your such a massive club aything less than promotion is a failure isnt it despite what billy says. He may talk down your chances, if he was in Paul Simpsons position he would probably have been promising relegation at the start of the season. Pne had the worst pre season preperation i can ever remember, so were not doing to badly either i suppose.
 
Re: Jon Stead

Mellor was signed for later in the season, so we could grab him while he was still cheap.

Apologies if you're confused at the idea of a good investment.

You must know from here that some forum posters get carried away... Brian Clough said some Derby fans moaned at him and told him he was clueless! (I'm not comparing BD to Cloughie, btw, just stating that every club has it's share of moaners).

Mildly disappointing, but we've won 3 out of the last 4, so we seem to be moving in the right direction.

I didn't expect us to start well, because the club has been run impossibly badly over the past 7 years, and the whole club needs rebuilding.

Promotion is expected, yes, but the vast majority of fans will be happy with a top half finish this year. It'd be nice to get some stability in the club.
 
Re: Jon Stead

you havent played anybody yet. your next set of fixtures will see your true standing.

ive nothing against derby, its just that stumpy is a mediocre manager who inherited a good team from a good talent spotter (craig brown).

he then scraped to the play offs with a couple of good signings, but replaced some of our better players with below average.

1 million for a 30 year old isnt good.

either way stumpy does it, you lose.

1. you start doing well, he will be off at the first sniff.
2. you start doing bad, your stuck with him.


come back in 12 weeks and speak to me then.
