Hmm, if he stays then I hope we get him on a new extended contract...

Quality if he decides to stick with us...! I think some people are forgetting how difficult it could be to replace him. One of our best, we need him in L1.

Re: Deano signs for derby

Nightmare scenario (purely for the purposes of inducing panic on a quiet Wednesday lunchbreak) for Deano: He doesn't want to leave Devon, so stays with us for next season and leaves for Gnome Park on a free in the Summer of 2010...

Well, they do seem to like taking on City players who run around a lot.

Doesn't bear thinking about. I'm sorry I shared.

Never done this before

But you could be right.

We should hobble him.

My hunch is that, if Paul really wanted to keep Deano, an improved contract offer now (including an extension to safeguard City's interests) would tilt the balance our way.

Re: Deano signs for derby

Am just thrilled that Deano is even having second thoughts ... helps improve the legend status even more ...

If he does stay then we risk losing him for nothing at the end of the season! Gulp.
But him staying and helping to fend off any relegation threat will be worth more than 350k in the long run.

My thoughts entirely. We'll probably end up looking stupid but something tells me that Deano is torn and wants to stay here and be a regular next season. Give him the captaincy! I'd rather be a hero at ECFC than a nobody at Derby! (totally unbiased of course..)

Don't want to put a dampner on this but the delay could be down to the type of sponsored car he has been offered in all fairness.
