This.

Fully expect him to score against us. But we could lose 5-0 on Friday night and still I'd be happy, we'd still be champions and he would still be a championship player at six fingered Norwich.

If he went for the money he'll be bothered now.
This x100.

Can you imagine the promotion bonus that would come with a £8m contract.
Not to mention all the add-ons and boost in publicity.

I'd hazard a guess every single aspect of that drive on the M25, football, financial or personal, pilchard now really regrets.

I love how people say "he went for the money".

He went to Norwich before a ball was kicked. They were VERY fancied to go up. We can all be experts in hindsight but it's not like he turned us down for someone with no promotion ambition. I probably would have done the same.

It still doesn't stop it being funny though

I can picture him, on that day, chugging along the A11.
Getting to Thetford and thinking:-

'Christ still another 30 miles, Norwich doesn't look that far on a map'.

That wouldn't have bothered most of us. It's the fact that the deal was agreed before Norwich highjacked it that was annoying.

To be honest, it's clear that it all worked out better for us than either the player OR Norwich, so with that in mind, if I was going, I'd struggle to do anything but chuckle at him whenever he got the ball.
