Jock Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 Probably not,these guys want quick money up front.The lad is a massive Rovers fan and was sold on the cheap because they knew he was coming up for a decent contract.You can see Robbo leaving when we get relegated and this lad would of been our number 1.

FGS5635 Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 What idiot sanctions the sale of the eng u21 keeper for 400k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pick32 Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 There is add on's to this deal, not sure if playing for England is one but i no we have a sell on clause and also we get money if derby win promotion within the initial 4years of his contract.

I'd have preferred to loan him out. Its not as if the fee was great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oklahoma Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 I have no idea who decided to sell him but it was a terrible idea. We could have a good GK to replace Robinson if he leaves... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FGS5635 Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 I guess you have to factor in that if derby paid 400k for him, they then have the 1.65mil agent fee on top of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artemorethanlabore Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 Yeah, he probably wouldn't have had a problem being third keeper for another three years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nellybc Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 Did seem a strange decision at the time from the club. He did drop a howler at the weekend though to gift our neigbours 3 points :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roverandout Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 i guess the same could be said when we sold shay given to newcastle, i know we had flowers in goal then but given was the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 Robbo is 32 he has a good 4 year left maybe more, very difficult for young keeper to have high values. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
