[Albion] Sales (Upset levels)

[kevo]

Bit of a half-a****d poll. Where are Kuz, Bennett, Orlandi and Vicente? What about Bridge and Upson?

 

[perseus]

Don't mind players being sold, that's football, but to not reinvesting the money in adequate replacements is upsetting.

It is the replacement that counts.

I should have included Upson. I was still upset about the penalty he gave away.

I did not include Orlandi because I think he was injury and I remembered his missed chances. I should have included Stephen Ward as well. Sunday morning mistake.

 

[perseus]

I don't think I've been particularly upset or disappointed since John Robinson left.

I was a more upset about the departure of Will Buckley than when Kieran O'Regan left.

 

[GoldWithFalmer]

This but then again he is injured,might be another Wayne Bridge scenario...

QUOTE=Taybha;6516114]I cant put my finger on the reason why but the one that really hacked me off was Barnes , yes i know he went to the footballing mecca that is Burnley but i think as a club we did little in the way of trying to keep him here , which is a shame considering how much he contributed the time he was here .[/QUOTE]

This, while Ulloa, Bridders and Buckley are all probably greater losses, at least the club worked hard in keeping hold of them and as a result got good fees. I do feel the club could have kept hold of Barnes if they'd really wanted to keep him here.

And this

This for me. Don't mind any of them being sold TBH. They all went for decent money in the circumstances, however if this money isn't reinvested I'd be upset at the club rather than at individual transfers.

 

[Worthingite]

Bridders for me, the lad's an utter beast. It's interesting to me that Cattermole is keeping him out of the Sunderland side, and to be honest if we could get him back on loan that would be brilliant (not that we really need ANOTHER holding midfielder, but I always felt that Liam was different gravy)

 

[Green Cross Code Man]

Vicente

This.

And I'm still upset. Very upset in fact.

 

[Cheshire Cat]

Recent - Barnes to a championship side
Living memory - Dean Saunders (we was sooo robbed).

 

[algie]

We got great fees for most of our players and so i'm not to upset. I thought we could have got more for Barnes and especially Noone.

For me the biggest loss to the team will be Ulloa. The guy oozed class.

 

[midnight_rendezvous]

El-Abd for me. I was absolutely gutted when he left

 

[hart's shirt]

Barnes.

He's still only 24 and has his best years ahead of him.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Ashley Barnes. Proper in-the-box striker sniffing around for a half-chance.

 

[Rod Marsh]

Wasn't upset to see any of them go.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Not Bridcutt. He clearly couldn't be arsed by then. Not so much Ulloa as I think the fee is phenomenal. I don't know if Murray counts, as we didn't sell him, he just decided not to sign a new contract.

So I'll say Barnes.

 

[Ernest]

For me it's 50% the sail of Ulloa, 25% Barnes, 20% Bridcutt & 15% Buckley

That's what I like about you ENREST, you always give a hundred and ten percent

John Byrne

 

[Seasider78]

Bennett - insane amount of assists, the last albion player who could take a set piece
Ulloa - by the end of this season we will realise what a player we had on our hands
