As an agent is in effect an employee of the player, I would suggest that the player has quite a say in where he plies his trade.

He has, post #59
Well yes, but that's not how it works. People will ALWAYS take an interest in our ex's, be they players or managers. Zamora being a prime example as he was still seen as 'our' Bobby and we wanted him to do well regardless of the fact he wasn't our player any more. Nathan Jones is always touted as a future manager, and people still post about Stockdale, Leon Knight, Mark McGhee, etc etc. Blimey, there was even a thread the other day telling us about the latest whereabouts of Doug Loft.
Just accept it and avoid the threads.

We will miss him as our other wingers are dog shite.

Thank you.
That reads more like a monetary decision, imo. I wonder just how much influence Ashworth has. I'm always suspicious when too many suits get involved.

Not good enough for Championship Brighton, sold for 750k, why wouldn’t we want to hear he’s knocking in another goal in the PL?

"You plonker, Rodney!"
One free-kick against a League One side is a bit of an overreaction.
Thankfully the Championship starts in nine days. Then we can judge/win money on him getting a goal when he plays. I think he'll be around 8/1 for first goalscorer in most matches.

Most emotional bloke in football? Fat wallet? Easy for him to say? Talk is cheap?
We get it. You don't like the bloke and so post complete and utter shite to further your views.
He still is a Brighton player, on loan. Maybe he's got an ounce of loyalty to the club and so doesn't want to say. More than some fans (yes you) have on here for him and what he's done for this club.
I quite like to follow our ex-players .... especially ones I rather liked. Doesn't mean I'm being disloyal.

Same here. Always chuffed when Hemed or Baldock score.

The original thread said he wasn't good enough for us in League 1.

Nope. I like him, wish he had stayed. I was at Bristol City away and saw the team Knockaert celebration for the Sidwell goal. I was at Palace last season for that crazy celebration. I also saw that reckless red card against Bournemouth. We all heard his statements about staying forever. Name a more emotional player than AK.
He’s been a hero so no, I don’t dislike him but by god I’m bored of people lazily pointing the finger at Potter, Bloom et al when it certainly appears very clear to me that Knockaert himself is at the very least complicit in his departure and very probably the instigator

It's amazing but red cards for Duffy Dunk or Andone don't seem to attract the same level of condemnation.
I can't remember Dunk's but both Duffy and Andone's were 'iffy', esp when compared to both of Knockaert's reds which were violent outbursts bought on by frustration, with the worst part being they were both entirely predictable.

Sorry, even worse than I thought
Whatever happened to Ashley Barnes? Probably now plying his trade part-time for Macclesfield or Altrincham. Knew he’d flop after I heard some experts in the crowd boo him at the Amex 2011/12.
