Absoluely I believe that, im sure it was reported at the time he went on loan to Pboro that we turned down several championship sides interest because we did not want to loan to a team in same division.
I think its a bit naive to think there would not be plenty of interest at our level ;-)
Just because we have not used CMS correctly does not mean another championship side wont.

CMS isn't a duffer.
He's not as bad as some would have you believe.
Alternatively he's proven to not be as good as others has said (cough)
CMS has scored and assisted some valuable goals for the Albion, just nowhere near as many as he should have done.
At the time of buying as much as £2.5m is in the real world.
For a striker who appeared to know where the goal was, it's a pittance, supply and demand.
A list of the home grown goal scorers the Albion have produced in my 44 years proves that:-

We took a gamble on CMS after he didn't exactly set The Championship alight during Peterborough's solitary season at this level thinking that Murray would struggle even more to raise his skill and ability. To be a decent striker you need to be able to trap the ball and control where you want it to go next as the second touch. Peterborough sold us a (Labrador) pup.

Fair enough, we'll see.

CHrist on a bike, he is the worst duffer we've had in terms of value for money, and an absolutely terrible footballer at this level. I'd give him 6/10 for his first season here, and you can knock a mark off for each subsequent year that went by. He scored a worldy at Burnley and a lovely finish in the 3-3 against Leeds. Apart from that, he's really done absolutely nothing.

he's now had several managers who apparently 'haven't used him properly' in this division....surely there comes a time when he simply needs to adapt his game
or is it simply that he's not good enough to change how a team plays to suit him?

I creased up when I read someone saying his second touch is always a tackle
Like you, I was thrilled when we signed him and persevered with, despite knowing he had the touch of a heavyweight boxer, right through until coming back from his injury. Now he's even lost his pace as demonstrated by being "overtaken" by Brentford CB's in the cup game.
I now realise the (very very) occasional magical touch is little better than fluke.
As they say on Dragons Den, "I'm out" (maybe Deborah Meadon will take him?)

The assist for Ulloa could have been pretty important (and probably still was from a financial perspective).
Give me a chance, I'm new to all of this.

"NOTHING" . I guess you're not a fan.
Ok. But that cross for Ulloa against Forest. Responsible for probably single best moment of last season.

You are right, he was prolific in league 1, but that I'm afraid is his comfortable level as he evidently struggles in the championship.
If IF NSC is correct 
and Kemy is picking up £10k a week.
He'll have pocketed close on a million from the Albion by the summer.
CMS isn't even the biggest duffer in the current squad.

Correct!
So we now have the goal against Leeds, the goal at Burnley and the cross at Forest. Three golden moments then.I still maintain you could count the MotM displays on one hand in the 3.5 years he's been here. It's not very good for the most expensive acquisition in club history really, is it?

perhaps someone could put together a youtube montage of his 'great' moments - might be worth including the goal for the reserves that was on youtube.
