Solid championship midfielder - as he showed yesterday - of which, we currently don’t have any.

I thought BW was very respectful yesterday… he could have laughed as he walked off, held his fingers up to show the score, celebrate in front of us etc but he chose to simply cup his ears - if we as fans can dish it out, we have to be willing to take some back.

Also, as stated before, the way he left was very much not how it was stated or made out by the club - he was very much on our side.

Hi sedge. When you say he was on our side? What do you mean? In what way?

When we are now going on about the team as a whole not putting in the required effort, we have said many times that the manager ( Lowe, Heckingbottom and now Grezza) have "lost the dressing room" or in Grezza's case never had it to start with.

Maybe it is higher up, maybe not just at Ridsdale level even, that the players are not putting in the required effort for.

Not sure a takeover and a January transfer window will help, who, who is any good, is going to want to sign up for this club at the moment.

He was obviously well aware of the troubles at the club and could not see them being resolved in the near future. Having been offered an escape hatch he took that option. It would appear to have been a wise choice. One I would have taken in similar circumstances.

Nowt wrong with that reaction, was laughing with the fans jeering his shooting before the game and when he went down the tunnel

Look at the state of Iversen though

I'm still not so sure the shot didn't take a deflection.
Even so though, it was powder puff stuff.

The only deflection it would’ve possibly taken is from the player sliding in, which doesn’t excuse Iversen just standing there. It was never going to the near post
 
I feel at the time to get 3M was a good move, never did much really for us. The problem is after that, replacing him. We signed Leroy who looks ok but will need time to adjust to the league then lost McCann to injury. Needed another champ experienced player in.

@Staffordwhite get him for the next book


This also goes along with what @Sedge_Fan is saying.
I can totally believe he could see the shitshow, challenged Ridsdale and Ridsdale being what he is didn't like it.
In his shoes, we all would have taken the exit route that was offered, especially with a reported pay rise.

Anything stopping him telling us all now?
 
Can we move this to general football now?

Sick of seeing his name after yesterday.
 
We just need to move on from this.

Very average player. Not a leader.

We got an incredible amount of money for him.

Wish him well
