If I were a championship manager I would of been put off by his record in the Championship with Posh and with us he didn't do much better. We had a 20 goal a season striker in Murray and for some reason Poyet didn't really rate him yet he signed Barn Door Billy on loan

Murray had 22 goals that season and Macca had 33. The following season Macca scored more than Murray in the Championship. Hindsight is a wonderful thing.
he ran around alot and is nice on twitter. I still havent forgiven him for the last minute miss against burnley when we had 9 players. In truth I loved CMS and have never wanted an Albion player to succeed more. It then dawned on me that he isnt very good and being a nice bloke who tries hard isnt worth £2.5million smackers....

I am sad to see him go as I think that he has been under used and with Baldock could be a success. What fee can we realistic expect to receive for him? My estimate would be £4-500k top whack. Talking to a friend he reckoned £1m.

Wasn't Murray injured for practically the whole of that season after we let him go? Lest we forget what happened the season after as well

He's out of contract in the summer so no way a million quid.

Totally agree. CMS escaped a lot of the flack the likes of Barnes had to endure due to his knack of engaging with the fans, always being last off the pitch, applauding those who stay to the end. He felt like one of them…or us.
On the pitch he ran around a lot but is generally not as good a player as he is a bloke.

No, he got his injury in the first leg of the playoffs against us.

I'm pretty certain Murray was either injured or not first choice for a fair portion of that season he only started 24 games that in 2011/12 & scored 6, CMS started 40 and scored 9.

Murray made 43 appearances that season for Palace. He wasn't injured for large parts of it. In his first season with Palace he simply wasn't considered good enough to start every game, and consequently made a lot of substitute appearances. He went 19 games without scoring a goal.

Sad to see him go, I really thought this was going to be his season to shine.

43 appearances but only 20 odd starts. Still that's beside the point anyway, the way we played at the time CMS was never a good fit & we saw with Ulloa what having a top class target man did for us.
Don't get me wrong I like the bloke but for a number of reasons I think the signing was flawed from the beggining.

Ditto except f***ing bonkers goings on with this club and all the comings and goings. If things don't go well on the pitch there is SO much ammunition to start chucking around........

Out of contract on June 30th 2015 , the club will be extremely lucky to get any more than £300k for him in January with his recent injury record.
