Will be leaving...
He's turned down a new 3 year contract for apparent "family reasons".
How irritating....

Backo - but given the Hulse scenario where he was sold for an undisclosed amount ( Packet of HP roasted nuts) and Commons during the transfer window closing, they might just show a desperation to sell to make a cheap buck than risk losing for...erm peanuts.
This is what annoys me - that when it comes to selling, Derby always seem to have their pants down and the buying club is in the position to negotiate the deal.
Hulse, Commons, Green and the situation with Davies is the same. As a club we should look to get players to renew their contracts with 18 months left and if it's stalemate, sell or exchange for equal value.

"we all know why"

I'm not sure the 'getting players to renew their contracts with 18 months remaining' applies in the Steve Davies situation - no-one in their right mind would have offered him a contract six months ago.
Before his fractured skull setback, Steve had continually oscillated between 'injured' and 'recovering from injury - should be fit in a few weeks' for pretty well his entire time at Derby.
Three months being fit changes little - even if he did bag a few goals.

Desi,
Can you please point me in the direction of where I can buy some of these HP roasted nuts. They sound fab.

Wassa: What does regularly attending games have to do with Steve Davies' reasons for leaving Derby exactly?

Been away a while, but here's my two-penneth on it. my friend informed me that Steve Davies partner said to him "The way to go is to run your contract down, that's where the money is".....That was before the Leicester home game....
