Bournemouth hope to secure loan deal for Crystal Palace striker Glenn Murray

[sir albion]

Up until now, I have never wished years of my life away.
But I am absolutely sick and tired of the Murray saga and wish I could fast forward to the day when he has retired from professional football.
I respect Murray, and enjoyed watching the Albion when he led the line.
But that was then and this is now; I don't want him to return although I wish him well; it would be an expensive mistake. He is our past and we must look to the future and find the players who can make that future successful.

STOP the Murray fetish! MOVE ON!

Nevermind murray...the obsession with ex managers and other ex players is bloody disgraceful

WTF is it with people being obsessed with the past?

No different anywhere else, whether it's Palace's obsession with Freedman's post-Palace career or Sunderland fans banging on about bringing back Peter Reid etc.

Agreed, but are they really asking for these blasts from the past to return?
How often has 'going back' proved successful? Some fans are even getting excited at the prospect of Dean Cox making a return....
He was good for us back then - but NOOOOOOOOO - don't re-sign him! Forward, not back!!!!

Bricks & mortar don't count in the FFP. The player budget does. This season FFP is 2 million less than last season.

Good point & may be good reason to spend a bit & get better players to secure Championship status!!

You can always go back to Seagulls Chat if you don't like it.

Come on Bloom, get him back!!

Its just pure jealousy, Palarse wanted him because we had him before them, now Bornmouf are just jumping on the band wagon

They don't seem to have wastes of skin like Kemy Agustien taking home an obscene amount of money for merely tweeting a crazy amount of bollocks

Hmmm, I'd imagine Tokelo Rantie isn't on peanuts, bearing in mind they paid a couple of million for them. He's been largely crap and can't get in their team.

Burke out.

I didn't think Murray could play for another team this season as he has already played for two teams. Happy to be corrected. Good luck by the way to Bournemouth who seem to have a fantastic team playing and scoring for fun. I for one don't care what they spend on players given the crowds they get, so what. We just sound like jealous cousins

Darren Bent?

It still amazes me that a team that average 12k gate spend so much more than us who average 25k, something doesn't add up

This is the big mystery.

How come Bournemouth can pass FFP on titchy gates and high spending, yet we seem to struggle and can't compete ?


Can we pin our hopes on the CMS and Agustien wages being freed up in the summer making us more competitive for transfers ?

Is it not a case of them spending money they got from sales/sell ons?

Then why couldn't that have been the case with us. We sold players and "had" money to spend.

Apparently our running costs, especially the subsidised travel, are a lot higher than any other club.
