For some strange reason, this news gives me a warm glow.
And it was all yellow
They must have a good tuck shop at the training ground.
It's nice to be on the other side of the sliding doors moment for once. Chris Martin turned his back on us for a club that didn't even want him and while we've played PL football three times since then, he has been consistently declining ever since.

McClaren wanted him .... but he got sacked !! McClaren would have known we were a possible top 6 threat that season !!
There is no loyalty from any player in any league. They go where they can earn the most money. While they can
Who will now sing lead with Cold Play? :022:

The irony here being that if he'd showed less loyalty to Derby, he most likely would have earned more money with us. His short term greed has directly led to the decline in his career.
A good fit, they deserve each other.

I know what you mean but I don't think it's 100% the case. Players like TC have shown commendable loyalty as has Mitro.
My goodness what a mess that club are in!

True however lets not forget the absolute wad of cash they earnt/earn as a salary, Mitros new salary earns him close to 25-30m over 5 years if i'm correct? And Tom was one of the highest paid champ players for a while
Im not saying they don't deserve it, im just saying money and loyalty go hand in hand in many cases.

Exactly. He didn't want to play for us. What a huge mistake he made

As far as I am aware it's not that he didn't like us, it was more his agent and Derby fed stuff into his head.

That may well be the case. However my comment was supposed to be humorous!
