He really  is a Wally

Just bog off! And he must know what he can do with that umbrella.... :022:

Someone on their side clearly made a mess of the loan agreement. I would have thought a release clause would have been one of the most obvious things to include in such an agreement!

[westcliff white]

Perhaps they wanted one and we wouldnt allow it

[Chesh]

Thing is Steve, we'd like him to be here as well, and guess what......he's under contract to us for the rest of the season....and oh yeah, we have an option to buy him as well.

Which bit of that doesn't your gormless self understand?

Maybe if you hadn't left Derby in the first place to fail as spectacularly with Newcastle as you did with England, then your 'Chrissy' would still be there also.

Seriously - do one!

What happened to his "we managers must keep out of it" then?

Seconded. Amazing riposte.

[Southcoastffc]

Yes, a lovely riposte.  If that's the real SJ, methinks his command of English is far far better than appears from the pre and post match videos.

[filham]

We should do the same as we did with the Newcastle interest in Cairney, simply tell McClaren how much it will cost Derby to get Martin back during this window. Start thinking about £10m.

[keithh]

I'd rather we did not enter into communications with Derby.

I'd say our manager has 'communicated' with them pretty well.

He couldn't have put it better if he had told them directly to "Communicate Off".

[Rambler]

Is this not the same as 'tapping up'. Although he is technically their player he has a contract with us and yet derby are openly talking about our contracted player.

Gives ground for taking this to the FA

He's a muppet just trying to stir up discontent. He must think we are serious contenders for a playoff place and is worried.

No such case, as his parent club they can't talk to and about him as much as they like.

So you're saying they can rather than can't talk about him because they are his parent club?
