Lambert confirmed Lawrence is leaving as well

Totally irrational but I never forgave him for missing that sitter against the Dingles. Talented but strikes me as another three or four game a season player like Cairney, King, Marshall etc. As others have said no great loss.

Friend, Derby fan, who was at the IPRO last night reckons Hanley is the man Derby want to shore up their defence. Seemingly, Clement remembers him well from his time at Ewood. Could be an interesting weekend.

In my darker moments I was wondering if that was why we signed Ward!

Lawrence is potentially a decent player. He is raw and very much still learning. Not sure he is what we need at this rebuilding stage.

If he was a Rover, things would be different as he could develop as a player for us in the future but as a loan, not what we need right now.

If rhodes does go we are under no pressure to sell and only a short time to reject bids

Think it was a 'business' decision to sell Rhodes and not a financial necessity.

Lambert has sold him because he doesn't rate him and the price was better than he could've dreamt. I'm certain of that.

As I said, a 'business' decision.

Would be a shocking move to sell Hanley and replace him with 31 year old Ward. That really would be the last of the family silver flogged.

Rumours about Hanley surface every window. Last one it was the Dingles. I would imagine Hanley is more of a Lambert type player than Rhodes.

Sorry, probably didn't explain properly. The money would be saved to spend in the summer - i.e. sell now whilst it is a seller's market, and buy in the summer when prices drop.

In other words, are Graham and Watt replacing Rhodes until the summer? They're definitely good enough to keep us up, and this season is a write-off in terms of promotion.

Probably barking up the wrong tree, just seems odd that one of them would be happy to sit on the bench.

Big gamble given our current situation. Hope we have time to reinvest some of it now.

I agree, would be a big risk. Derby friend reckons they have too many players and Clement struggling to keep them all happy with Forsyth (left sided defender / midfielder) and Hendrick (midfielder) being two of them. Throw those two in and 2 or 3 £million and who knows...........!?!?

Make it Bryson and it'd be interesting

They're trying to buy their way out of the league and seem convinced FFP doesn't apply to them. Hope them and 'Boro fail and get slapped with an embargo tbh but I'm not holding my breath!

This doesn't so much apply to Derby, but the fact 'Boro get average gates of 15k and pay Downing £60k a week, yet comply with FFP really gets my goat :angry2:
