PhilT Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 Thought he was lucky to be on the pitch at the end. Still gave years to the club and should get a proper reception next time he’s at St. James’. Wish him well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that he doesn’t deserve a decent reception but let’s not pretend like he was here out of charity. We were paying him a wage that no one else would and now he’s playing for forest for the same reason. I don’t dislike him for it but it doesn’t make him worthy of legend status either.

But in the interview its clear he's having a bit of a joke about it and how everyone is moaning, he even smiles. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pedro111 Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 He finished the quote saying that he has nothing but positive things to say about the club and that he has made loads of friends here and hopes we get Europe. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely not saying he’s a legend mate. Didn’t particularly like his antics or interview tonight either. But he was an important player for us for years and it would be churlish to deny that.

jack j Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 (edited) No way was he being serious Just shite "bantz" He got a class reception before he left us he's not gonna spoil that.

gbandit Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 The comments were banter but why was he sliding in from behind multiple times on Bruno. he’s a total liability, glad he’s gone Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'd love to have been here for the rest of his career, but just like when he was here, he was chasing shadows. Not up to the top level, but wish him well at Forest.

I never took to him personally the way others did and thought he was as disappointing throughout his time here as he was impressive. For every 2 month high he had there was 6 months of disappointment either side imo but Tbf there was some very high highs for where we were at the time. His championship season, playing next to Diame under Rafa and a couple of months under Howe were impressive but his time outside of that left a sour taste in my mouth personally. Maybe I’m just being harsh after having high expectations when we signed him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEEJ Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 So glad we're shot of him. Yes we should've replaced him before letting him go, but he's an awful footballer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty clear that Rafa wanted to replace him 5 or so years ago and no doubt in my mind that he was right. Not all shelveys fault but obvious he’s just not a player capable of being part of a team to get us where we want to go. Same as players like gayle and Ritchie, obviously they’re going to want to stay because they know they’ll never play for a club like this again but the they should really have been let go a few years ago Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhilT Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 To be fair, if he’d taken Harry Potter out when he had chance then we’d all have forgiven him for kicking a few of our players tonight. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mountain Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 He was being serious at first and was angry. Then he realised he didn't want the hassle so said it again but in a joking way and clarifying it was a joke. I'm glad he's no longer here, I thought he was poor as usual this evening.

No he wasn't man. Stop fabricating stuff. He played hard tonight, and was clearly motivated going up against his former team mates, and probably wanted to get one over on them and show his commitment against his former team for the home fans. No big deal. Good test that we passed with flying colours. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaqen Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 He's only ever really spoke positive words about us, the club and the area. Have no problems with how he played, he was fired up and made a few daft challenges like he has throughout his career. We wanted to keep him, he left as it was a better long term deal for himself. Don't really have any issues against him, was probably one of their better players tonight. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
