Jake Buxton "Ill go back at some point"

[Sedgwick]

Alot of people clearly haven't listened to the interview linked.

[Chander Lear]

raspberry right off.

I thought he was crap. Bappa mopped up for him all the time!

Wow.....statistically Bucko had a much better season, gave away less penalties and was at fault for less goals than AJB that season.
Next you will be telling me that it was Jason Whites fault we went down too even though he kept 4 or 5 clean sheets in the 13 or 14 league games he played in that season !!!!!
Bucko gave away two free kicks towards the end of the season that resulted in goals but was much the better defender that year than AJB....and he has had a much better career !
We offered JB a contract that was then rescinded when McEwan took over, he left and he hands down won Conference player of the season at Burton and has then spent 10+ seasons playing Championship football on a regular basis.

JB is exactly the sort of player we need....someone that plays with his sleeves rolled up and someone that can bring Sweeney on with his experience.

Can’t be bothered to read your essay, it’s simply my opinion that I didn’t think Jake Buxton was all that.

Jason White was partly to blame for our relegation, did you miss the Rotherham lob?

So you did read it then ??

lol busted

[manssmooth]

Really interesting interview. He shows genuine regret and remorse about how it all ended with us.

Many of us on here remember those toxic days when we were relegated and it was natural to look for some one to blame, was it Hasscum, White, Bucko or more than likely a mixture of them all and more!

But that was 12 or so years ago now and you can see how much he has matured over that time. I understand some peoples reticence in not wanting him back, but he says himself that he shouldn't have left in the manner he left in, and i personally believe he would be a great asset to us in whatever role would suit.

Imagine the knowledge he has gained at the level he has played.

[Vicar Jeremiah]

I’ve got no axe to grind with him as a player, he was average in a below average team but his attitude stank. If we are moving forward as a club we don’t need him.

[Richard Cranium]

Why didn't he want to come back and pay the fans back years ago? Now he's about 35 and dropping down the leagues he wants a final pay day at the club he started who just happen to pay out decent wages these days. Not a chance, He was gash the season we were relegated but thats forgivable, sticking your finger up at the fans of the club who gave you a chance at the first opportunity isn't.

Exactly this. His attitude was a disgrace back then, and now he wants to come back for a final pay day?

Do one.

[yorkshire stag]

he didn’t care then, we don’t care now

On ya bike

[Jamie]

Agree with other comments, i wouldn't want him back. Despite the career he's somehow managed to have. He was a liability for us and didn't do himself any favours.

Good luck finding a pay day somewhere else Jake.

And so has AJB, with a season in the Prem, so please explain this "much better career" that he has had.

[jay the butcher]

Thought he was a poor player in a poor team pleased he proved me wrong and made a decent career for himself I expected him to go down the Jason White road

[Martin Shaw]

very engaging interview, well worth a watch.

We will have less of this attitude of yours Martin. At no point in the post did you moan about a player or manager. If this carries on and people start being objective, respectful and reading without a an agenda we will have anarchy!!!!!

Pull your tongue out will ya

[Amberheart]

I would like to see him back at the club if only to erase the way he left .
If his experience could in some way help us gain promotion he would be forgiven

[Billy the fish]

Great interview think folk forget just how young he was and obviously loves the club . You don’t play regular in the championship and get that adulation from the Derby fans for nothing I’d love to see him back in the shirt .
Also an interesting quote from him regarding Clough leaving and the impact that had at Burton just after promotion to the league ‘ we had the same players in the dressing room the season after with a different manager same training etc but you soon came to realise it was him running the club (Clough) that was missing .

[JimmyMac]

You only have to look a few weeks back to see he is a liability!! Giving away a stupid penalty at Portsmouth!! Through his career he has been at fault for lots of goals!! One hell of a lucky man to do what he has done!!

Just a light hearted dig at all the bitching and moaning about someone who left us to further his career. Happens every week in football. No need to be a complete whinger about it. Anyone would think that Jake Buxton has been hacking into Coleen Rooney’s Instagram account the way people launched into him.
