Hob Nob Anyone?

Would love for us to be ambitious and go for some good young players. Barry Cotter on loan at Notts County from Barnsley would fit the bill for RB and Adam Mayor on loan from Milwall at Cambridge as LB would be my choices. Both have pace, can defend, can cross and more like Reading old school signings. More likely we will buy 2 over 35 year olds but it’s good to dream.

On 27 February 2024, Nyambe would pick up a quadriceps injury in a match against Charlton Athletic, in March it was confirmed that he had surgery on this injury and would be ruled out for remainder of the 2023–24 season, Nyambe made 21 appearances for Derby during the season.[23] At the end of the season, Derby secured automatic promotion to the Championship with a second-place finish in League One.[24]

On 4 July 2024, it was announced the Nyambe had signed a new three-year contract at Derby, extending his stay at Pride Park until June 2027.[25] After playing in eleven of Derby's first twelve matches of the 2024–25 season, Nyambe would pick up a posterior cruciate ligament injury in Derby's match against Millwall on 19 October 2024 which would leave him on the sidelines for up to six months, Derby head coach Paul Warne said Nyambe was "heartbroken" by the injury.[26] He returned from injury ahead of schedule in January 2025.[27] On 2 April 2025. Nyambe broke the record for the most Championship appearances by an outfield player without ever scoring a goal during Derby's match against Preston North End on 2 April 2025 at 202 appearances.[28] In the game, Nyambe would sustain a hamstring injury in the fourth minute of the match and was forced to leave the field, the injury ended Nyambe's season a month early with the defender making 19 appearances during his second season at Derby.[27]

In June 2025, it was confirmed by Derby head coach John Eustace that Nyambe would miss the start of the 2025–26 season as he continued his recovery from his hamstring injury

LB definitely bigger priority.

Abrefa played 90 minutes in the U21 game on Monday night, so if he has been injured he's on his way back.

His behaviour on X is ridiculous. Assume you saw his lengthy 'victim' post yesterday?

His reply to Brogue "I don't leak". Erm, that's your job mate.

He quickly deleted it. And as I replied, if he knew this was happening why did he call me out as a liar when I said we were about to sign him. He’s full of shit and I will publicly shame him. Shame, shame
