Maybe what he was telling them was: "I'm sick of running my heart out every match and getting no credit for it, while players on twice my wages hardly break sweat"

'Against 9 men in a poor league'

11 v 11 when he scored the first 2.
You don't arrange to move your family to the USA on the spur of the moment, Griff

Bloody Hell, I'm apologising and now you're blaming him

No I'm not.

I just don't see it that it was all arranged behind the backs of the management, when he had already turned down contract offers.
However, Griff is more likely to know than me.

There was an understanding he was looking to move to the Scottish league in the summer to be nearer to his wife who lives in Glasgow. Maybe the geography teachers is iron bru land aren’t that good

The fact that Connor Doyle has been successful in the MLS tells me it’s a strong league

We thought we had Lookman lined up don’t forget, until he changed his mind at the last minute.
Bear in mind that we could have made Russell see out his contract but we didn’t and helped him out with the USA move. So any animosity that is perceived by fans is not borne out in reality.

Russell made it clear he didn’t want to stay until the end of the season

posted on 23/4/18

Understood. It does beg the question though. Why? Money in MLS much better? Eye on the future?

posted on 23/4/18

The money in the MLS for imports must be better otherwise players like Gerrard, Lampard, Pirlo would be at Derby

A lot of Russell not stopping to see the season out and potentially get a promotion bonus was his falling out with GR back at the end of Sept and being left out of the squad for attitude problems

Thanks Griff. If he had attitude problems they were certainly not manifest on the pitch. Always commended (by those that reported on games) for his work rate, even if criticised for end-result), and often a MoTM contender.

And, DCCC win their first County Championship home game since September 2014. An omen if ever there was one!

Tbf it was a Disciplinary incident that GR put to bed by leaving him out of the squad for a few games.
