    I'd love Phillips to sign for us

    Not sure about Moore. However, I don't know which other clubs are also in the market for KP and whether his personal circumstances may play a part in his decision (children settled at school, wife unwilling to move etc.).

    Even if we signed him he'd never play for us

    An experienced, out-spoken player with his own ideas. Davey will have fallen out with him within 2 weeks and he'd be left to rot in the reserves.

    As Nyatanga is not coming....

    I think the Darren Moore rumour is entirely believable. He is out of contract, so won't cost anything more than his wages and I doubt if he will get any better offer. Looking at the cover, the only area in which we don't have good back-up is central defence. I was thinking that the best central pairing is definitely Foster and Sousa - look at the cup run - and that any player brought in would probably not be first choice. I was thinking that a good series of premiership loanees would be the best way, but Moore could do a job for us for a year, without doubt. I recall we tried to sign both him and Colin Cramb from Doncaster when we got into the premiership. Good judgement by someone, when you consider where he has been since.

    Davey also said about getting TWO strikers in - we have Hume - I would think that, if Mossto returns from Peru, as he is reckoned to, we will not need another striker. If Mossto does not reapper, we could do with another one, especially with Coulson out injured for a while.

    Other areas now seem to be covered. Good dealing? We will see, but it is a great deal better than most other Championship clubs at the moment, especially those which are our near neighbours - James O'Connor??? Well, I ask you!!!

    Moore can't be that bad

    I know Derby were dire last season, but he did win their player of the season award.

    Then again, he was in talks with Bradford the other week.

    Personally

    I remember sayin the season Derby got promoted I wouldn't mind Moore at Oakwell. Thought he was great that season.
    I don't think he's passed it I just think he was out of his depth in the premier league.

    Still don't think it would be a bad signing IMHO

    RE: Moore can't be that bad

    played in 4 teams thats been promoted to Prem. His experience would be invaluable and would give us a leader at the back something we haven`t had for a while.
