I know he fitted in well and played some blinders for us last season
but his mistake yesterday caused the goal that lost Reading the game

He made a simple mistake in our play off semi as well, when it was largely known his future was elsewhere. Coincidence?

How was it largely known his future was elsewhere during the PO semis? I am sure he wasn't thinking get this game over with then I'll be off to Reading?
He knew if we didn't get promoted he'd get better offers with higher wages.

Ward is looking like a good replacement and the big potential plus is that he should be good for two games a week due to being so much younger. I have been impressed with Ward in the last two games, maybe we are not going to miss Bridge as much as I thought when he signed for Reading.
That sounds a bit cynical/paranoid.
Ward + a winger was so much more impressive than Maxi + Barnes.
Hardly surprising 'square pegs in square holes' and all that, but nevertheless the difference was great to see.

Don't think this had anything to do with any alledged mistake against Palace!

It's no coincidence that we've now got a decent left back, that we've managed to hold onto our leads in games and win. One player doesn't make a team and all that, but it was a weakness previously.

Bridge is a year older, playing for a knob of a manager so maybe not got so much incentive now ?
I thought the midfield did a better job of covering our marauding full-backs, yesterday, compared to Derby.
All part of the work in progress.

Hardly. I doubt he really cared whether we got promoted or not and who can blame him, he was only on loan and had proved his worth in this league, therefore his motivation to prove himself must have been far lower than when he initially joined us.

If we had got promoted through the playoffs, he knew he would be offered a contract by Brighton. He had said previously that he had fallen back in love with football here, so he had a motivation to do well.

He should of stayed with a big club
I don't think Man City wanted to keep him to be honest!

what about personal and professional pride? dont be a mug supposing his only motivation was money, when he was on loan being paid by another club regardless. what we all saw last season was a player enjoying their game, that didnt stop for the last game.
Yes, but what I'm saying is he knew he'd get decent offers elsewhere after being named in the Championship team of the season in a specialized position. He didn't have any particular loyalty to Brighton.
