Maybe Stockdale wanted to be a club where he would be guaranteed first team play and plenty of involvement in the game. He's certainly been busy at Birmingham with the performances of the team in front of him.

It has been many times quoted on here, rightly or wrongly, but he left because we didn't offer him a contract long ( or whatever or because family circumstances were not suitable to such an extent thst he was ntenough to encourage him to remain herer !
So please let it be - It is now history !!!

Finally caught the Channel 5 highlights last night, and bloody hell Dave must really be missing D & D. He's got a bunch of utter clowns in front of him at the moment, the defending against Preston was shocking. One thing about Stockers, he's never been shy of publically showing how much he HATES conceding goals. After one of them he was laid flat on his back, shouting and literally THUMPING the ground in frustration, like a 2 year old having a tantrum in Tesco. Another one he's straight up and letting fly with a volley of abuse and giving various gestures at one of his hapless teammates. He is a very angry man right now.

I noticed that, he didnt really have a sniff of saving them, he was fuming with the defending on all the goals.

And rightly so. But it probably doesn't do much to endear him to his new team-mates. He's never been adverse to throwing them under the bus when it suits though.
Probably a trait that Harry Redknapp admires, seeing as that's exactly what he does himself.
So he didn't get the contract he wanted.. Surely testing himself at the highest level is more important? Always sounded like a man that put professionalism ahead of other incentives. Not saying he's right or wrong, I don't know what went on behind closed doors. Very disappointed he left though. Thought he might want to challenge himself more. I must have read him wrong.

Stockdale bust his wrist now according to the local rag up here.

Silly old bat
It says a wrist injury rather than busted.

You don't know how much agents play a part in deals like this!?! I bet they tell their client they are doing the best by them, but are they really... They are just in it for the money!

Former Manchester United keeper Tomasz Kuszczak, 35, is likely to deputise for Stockdale who has started all eight Championship matches since signing from Fulham in July.

The rumour in the sandwich shop with the Birmingham fans at lunch was that Stockdale broke his wrist punching Arsenal loanee Cohen Bramall in the nut. Neither were in the squad Saturday. Not quite #together up here assuming its true.
And now it looks like he will have Steve Cotterill as his manager... poor guy.
Seems they also approached Karanka and were rejected.

I reckon Jimmy Kranky is waiting for the Sunderland job to be available in the next couple of weeks. I bet he has a house up there.
This would have been a bigger story if there were anything in it, surely?

Yeah - It's certainly not gospel but from the local rag it's clear there has been discord here albeit less so since arry has gone (There seems to be more positive noises since they beat massive). The guy telling me has a box at Birmingham and is seemingly reasonably well connected but then again he thought Zola and Redknapp were good appointments. I did have a look on the forums but couldn't find anything obvious.
