Previous players 'Not focused enough'

[Lenny Rider]

Bridcutts 'lack of focus' equating to refusing to play in old money, but he's not the first didn't Steve Penney refuse to play for Barry Lloyd? And there must have been others going back through the years.

 

[Box of Frogs]

Vicente?!?!

 

[Barrel of Fun]

Those subject to the list or sustained interest from other clubs/deals, we can rule out Bennett and Cullip. They kept their focus.

Cullip still played his usual game whilst being transfer listed and Bennett seemed to accept that he had to wait until his transfer.

[Seagull on the wing]

I couldn't say Michael Mahony-Johnson lost his focus at Gillingham....he never had any focus to begin with..

 

[The Modfather]

Dobbie would have done us a favour if he had refused to play.

 

[Freddie Goodwin.]

Codner seldom had it.

How about Dan Harding & Joel Lynch?

 

[Working class pride]

Frank Worthington, but who cared? ..

Glenn Murray was a model professional to the very end.

Quite and I imagine he already knew he was on his way out, long before the final curtain.

My lasting memory of Gus Poyet will not be as the man who left the club by taking a shit in the away changing rooms, it will be as the man who let Glenn Murray leave for nothing to our rivals.

 

[Horton hears a few]

That decision could well continue to haunt. His goals could still keep Palace up this year.

 

[CheeseRolls]

Zamora went out more on a whimper than with a bang. Sometimes it happens like that.

So when it comes to Glenn Murray, it was all Gus's fault , but when we try to buy players it's all about bloom saying yes or no? Do you not think bloom had a say about selling Murray?

How does that work them?

 

[sparkie]

Vicente?!?!

That was Gus not picking him.

 

[Thunder Bolt]

Zamora went out more on a whimper than with a bang. Sometimes it happens like that.

He was definitely affected by not going to Spurs in the January window. I can particularly recall our game away at Stoke where he barely broke sweat.

 

[Acker79]

Did Bennett sit out any matches when Norwich were in for him in the January and we refused his transfer request?

Watford away in the FA cup. I can't remember if he missed any league games.

Edit, I've just checked my 2010-2011 book and he did play in the 3 League games.

we didn't sell murray! my viewpoint is that poyet simply wasn't overly fussed about murray and not convinced he'd be any good in the championship...i could be wrong but that's as i understand it

we'd be playing premier league football this season if we'd kept him
