Stephens, his scummy agent and tinpot Burnley showed BHAFC, Paul Barber and Tony Bloom zero respect.
Just because Burnley is cash rich this season doesn't make it right that they think they can disrupt our season in the way they tried (include Stephens in that 'they') because they have a bit...
It was more a rhetorical question than anything-we all know contracts mean nothing these days. At least when clubs fire managers with time left on a contract there is usually some form of compensation paid. No such honour from players.
Or Fecking Burnley said that if he puts in a transfer request waiving his cut they would cover his losses with a nice signing bonus?
Burnely, Stephens and his agent have all acted despicably in this saga. Burnley, a club heading straight back down (hopefully) armed with pockets of Murdoch's...
Does honouring a contract not mean anything? His contact was great when he was injured and getting paid in full but now he wanted it ripped up to move to Burnley? Burnley FFS. That is hardly a 'better office' is it? All he wants is a bigger pay cheque and to hell with being honourable. Can...
So, a key midfielder for us is 100% fit but sits out a couple of games because? Hughton isn't going to drop a vital player for 2 tough games is he?
He will be gone in January.
I hope their search for a replacement started the moment Stephens went on Twitter so we can bring somebody in as soon as the January transfer window opens because I think we'll be going through this same crap in a few months.
A pox on Burnley once again - shitty tinpot outfit.
To get promotion or to win trophies ALL results matter. All goals scored matter as we found out when settling for a draw cost us, when not pressing for one more goal cost us.
And you say I'm making ridiculous points?
Stephens is clearly ready to play fitness wise
Stephens is a key player for us
He did not play in an important game against Newcastle
Maybe you can explain why he isn't playing at the moment then? As we saw last season, every game is important if we...
Unless you know something the rest of us don't, Hughton doesn't know if he's about to lose one of our better players or not. And that doesnt have a negative impact on the club?
Meanwhile we have a manager not knowing who he has in midfield and no time to bring in a replacement if he does go.
The transfer deadline should be the day before the season starts to avoid all of this last minute, disruptive bullsh1t. I'm beginning to really dislike modern football.
Burnley, Stephens and his scummy agent have had a massively negative influence on the club. Stephens has contributed next to nothing on the pitch this season so it's not like we're losing a regular player . It's time to get as much as possible for him and hope he has a miserable time in a season...
