Me too, but he was a greedy sulk, so f*** him.

I wish he did. We are missing a fragile and moody enigma. Every flair team needs one of them.

Someone with his play style but with a different attitude 
We need a Glenn Murray.
The Glenn Murray did that job well.

Not controversial at all. The majority of us (who saw him last season) do.
No point dwelling on it. It's done now.

Some of us said this all along.
For example, I said this all along.
No point crying over spilt milk though is there? We're not going to sign him back.

Genuine question - what was wrong with his attitude?
Since he's been with us I've not seen anything wrong with it - gives 110%, tries his heart out and always has a chat in the Players Lounge after the game, no ego or anything...
Shocked to hear that you had a different view tbh.

GM > CMS
CMS having to run around like a headless chicken, as he has no support, bit sad on him. Hope we can sign Paynter.
but CMS + GM = Top 2 potential

All managers are going to make mistakes. This looks like being Gus's biggest so far. Unless of course it was Bloom refusing to break the wage structure. Maybe with sides now full of ex-Premiership players that will be one thing that will have to go. I'm not suggesting we pay Leicester-style wages - look where that has got them, but if we can't afford to pay 10% of Wayne Bridge's wages (not that I'm suggesting we should have done and Manchester City probably wanted more than that), it suggests we will be a long way off competing at least in the upper levels of this division for some while. I'm prepared to wait (provided we don't suffer relegation in the meantime, not just this season but any of the next few - could be very serious for the club's financial model if lots of the new STH decide not to renew; don't worry about me, I went to Gillingham and put up with Wilkins football), but is everyone?
When he first joined he did not get on with the then manager Dean Wilkins. This was partly due to Murray being recruited behind Wilkins' back, and partly due to them both being fairly shy, quiet blokes, Wilkins then had a mystery illness/ nervous breakdown (no one knows for sure) towards the end of the season, and Glenn was having domestic problems as his partner did not settle down south.
He put in a transfer request within a couple of months of signing due to his poor relationship with Wilkins. When Wilkins was sacked Mickey Adams persuaded him to stay, but a misdiagnosed hernia meant that Murray only played half the following season, and was sent off for elbowing a player, as well as collecting a lot of unnecessary yellows.
Start of following season he started on bench against Brentford. He had put in another transfer request as his partner had left him and taken the kid with her. When he came off the bench our 'witty' fans sang songs about his ex. At the end of the match he didn't 'respect' said fans by clapping them as he came off the pitch and they went mental at him.
Two more red cards that season, plus his ongoing undiagnosed injury restricted appearances. His shy demeanour was interpreted as aloofness and moody. Because he didn't run about like a headless chicken it was interpreted as laziness.
His full fitness and finding a new partner coincided with Gus arriving. Certainly his disciplinary record has improved, but his goals:games record was fairly consistent under the four managers he played under during his time at the club. A practically full season in 2010/11, coupled with domestic harmony, coming into his playing prime, a better style of play and better players around him, meant that he scored 22 last year.

Glen now realises what it is like to play for a proper club with proper fans that watch all the 90 minutes

I'd happily have Chris Wood back, scoring a f*** load more than Murray too.
