unfortunately for him and Buckley, they believed that the grass is always greener elsewhere - just like their mentor Poyet.
Didn't they leave a championship team for a premier league one?

Ok as a player not as a person. We saw the best of him
Think it was Kuiper’s testimonial, I was with my 8 year old son and his friends after the game. He walked past and I called him to see if he would do a photo, autographs etc. He turned round, decided we weren’t worth talking to and walked off.
Sorry, just seen this explanation - very, very surprised at this. You sure he heard?

yep but that didnt work out so well for them from a footballing point of view. Bridcutt made 30 appearances for sunderland before they shipped him out on loan and now he is in league 1 with Lincoln. Buckley made 22 appearances for sunderland before being shipped out on loan and is now without a contract having been released by league two (as of 20/21) bolton.
I am sure they made a few quid for a couple of years though.

Teamed up with Albion past (Wood) and Albion future (Pedraza) to sink us 2 - 0 for Dirty Leeds.

The highlight of his post Albion career?
If they had been loaned to Leeds both those players would be in the Argentinian football team by now....
White was sub for us that day (3/17)
How can that be ? We didn’t know who Ben White was then
To counter this....
A long time ago 11 year old me approached Doug Rougvie, who was out injured, at the Goldstone and asked him to sign my programme.
Embarrassingly for both of us my pen didn’t work.
Rougvie said “hold on a minute” and approached some people nearby and asked if they had a pen. They didn’t, and he asked the next lot.
He came back, signed my programme and then gave the pen pack to the owner.
A minor example of class, but one I haven’t forgotten.
