100% this. He's just too honest in the press. But I like the honesty. And he is committed 100% to Albion - unless 'somethnig special' came along. Name me a manager outside the top 6 in prem who isn't in the same boat as that...?!
Of course it's all about the money. No professional player would leave us right now to go somewhere like Palace. Great team, great manager, amazing stadium. Unfortunately any of the other 90 clubs, maybe 89 taking SCC out too would have been annoying but OK. JUDAS.
The annoying thing for me is that not only are they are rivals they were f***ing in admin a little while ago - shouldn't be allowed to offer players anything near more than a good club like us. This is what is wrong with football - a transfer embargo for 5 yrs wouldve done (I know in this case...
No not really. I'm just suggesting that as an example. A player shouldn't have the cheek to say to a fan they're moving to their rivals - but as Richy said he wasn't sure if he was joking or not. Either way if he goes there he will be hated.
