[Albion] Goodbye and Thank you to Glenn Murray

Reddleman · Feb 1, 2021

So Glenn Murray has signed for Nottingham Forest today.

That is officially the last we will see of him in a Brighton shirt. I just wanted to start a thread to say thanks to him for everything he has done for this club.

There are lots of players who are dear to our hearts and I know some fans still hold a bit of a grudge about the Palace move but for me his contribution to the history of this football club is absolutely enormous and he deserves to be regarding as one of the all time legends.

Without his goals we simply wouldn’t have become or remained a PL club of that I have no doubt. That is some legacy to leave behind.

Thanks Glen, if the media career doesn’t pan out you are welcome back anytime!

Well said mate.

Fabulous player for us

Was looking at some past kits the other day and that lead me to Murrays google pics page. Lovely to see it is a sea of blue n white with the exception of one tiny Palace pic. :bhasign:

His quality on and off the pitch is matched by his quality in the media, one of the best and his future prospects are assured.
Thanks Glenn for everything :albion2:

A genuine club legend.

I hope we see him again off the pitch in future.

Therrrrrre’s only onnnnnnne Glenn Murray ....

Looking forward to singing that next season. He got us up and he kept us up.
Nice bloke it seems, to boot.

Biggest mistake TB made , was not to give Glen a new contract when we moved to the Amex , we would of been in the PL a lot sooner

Tim Over Whelmed · Feb 1, 2021

Indeed, a club legend, and a very good player in all appearances, even for .... them!

A gentleman and nice guy off the pitch as well.

All the very best.

On the same legend platform as Zamora. Brilliant, brilliant player for us. edit - always a shame that Poyet's ego meant we let him go to Palace.

Blimey, a bit rewriting of history. Wasn't it because Poyet didn't want him or at least didn't think he was worth what he was asking for?

HUGE player for us. Club legend. Thanks for everything Muzza.

Totally agree, and there will be a good future in the media too once he hangs up his boots.

Total legend, an old fashioned CF and one of the best, if not the best attacking header of a ball I've seen in an Albion shirt.

The Palace move hurt, especially as he was scoring for fun up there, but that said Murray always acted with dignity towards both sets of fans and at the end of the day he's a professional footballer not a fan, he pays his mortgage and provides for his family by playing football and Gus didn't want him badly enough, another club did.

It's actually Poyet that's to blame, not Muzza. We fans always knew how good he was which made letting him go....... on a free FFS....... Was one of the most obvious blunders in recent memory.

That's all in the past, he's rightly loved by us and our rivals as he's a truly top bloke and a great pro.

Thanks for the memories Muzza, Albion legend.

Moshe Gariani · Feb 1, 2021

A true Albion legend. My favourite goal was the one at Palace a couple of seasons ago from Dunky's long ball forward but plenty from the old days too.

Hope he scores a few for Chris Hughton.

And then has a great career in the media when it will be a pleasure to hear his view on Albion matches.

Uh_huh_him · Feb 1, 2021

I would have loved to have seen him score for us one last time.
That equaliser at West Ham was a decent one to finish on though.
Good luck Legend.

Hotchilidog · Feb 1, 2021

Albion legend. I am unable to articulate my full thoughts at the moment, but what a player and what a gent. Along with Dunk he is Mr BHA in this modern era for me.

elwheelio · Feb 1, 2021

Legend.

Garry Nelson's Left Foot · Feb 1, 2021

Up there with Zamora as the best striker we've had in the past 30 years.

Scored the goals that got us out of league one and enabled us to start the Amex Era in the championship and on a positive footing. Then a few 'lost' years before returning to score the goals that got us to and kept us in the Premier league.

An important player in our history and yes, worthy of the legend status.

Hope he gets a hatfull for Forest.

Class act - on and off the pitch, always welcome back.
