Would you have Murray back?

[Thunder Bolt]

Not trying to re-sign him just looks like Bloom cutting off his nose to spite his face.

You can't blame Bloom. It's all Poyet's fault.

Of course, I'd have him back as long as he cut out the stupid deliberate handballs.

 

[crookie]

A gifted natural finisher ? A definite yes from me

 

[BensGrandad]

Without a 2nd thought I would. Not only would he score goals but he would lay them on for CMS & Baldock.

 

[vegster]

Yes,without a moments hesitation.

 

[London Irish]

Best player on the pitch yesterday by miles

In fairness, I don't believe TB wanted him to go in the first place. It was a Gus decision which the chairman ultimately, and properly, felt he had to support.

 

[Gazwag]

Mark Bright just said on football focus that getting Murray back should be a priority.

 

[c0lz]

No FFS get over it. he two goal's yesterday was due to very poor marking.

 

[Crispy Ambulance]

A new manager at that lot could want him back there.

 

[Tony Towner's Fridge]

With Colin being given the push I reckon GM will be recalled to the SheissStadium by whoever is taking control. Seems a real waste to be playing for an average Championship team when he could be playing for a dire Premiership team.

In a heartbeat. The single biggest mistake of the Amex era was letting him go on a free. I actually believe we'd be in the prem now if we had kept him. Shocking decision.

 

[Cowfold Seagull]

I voted yes, but not at any price. Remember he is 31 now, and has been somewhat injury prone in the last couple of seasons. We all know that his goals got Reading a point yesterday, but can he still perform consistently over a full season?

Yep l agree with that, letting him go on a Bosman, was one of Gus's biggest mistakes. But that was then, and this is now, four years on, he is in his early thirties and bound to have lost some of his consistency.

 

[DavidinSouthampton]

Like a shot.

 

[JBizzleBeard]

I didn't think that just from yesterday's performance as I've been thinking it for a long time anyway!

 

[West Hoathly Seagull]

Without hesitation, but whether he would wish to set foot in the Amex as a Brighton player is another matter.

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

Should have never been let go in the first place.

 

[Bombadier Botty]

Without hesitation, but whether he would wish to set foot in the Amex as a Brighton player is another matter.

He's been a Judas before, why not be a double Judas - shit on Palace and come back to us, hey he could even be a treble Judas if he played one season for us and then went to play for Swindon Town, Reading's 'deadly' rivals.

 

[Lower West Stander]

I would, but getting a bit more fence.

Everyone would have wanted Elliott Bennett back, but he hasn't done much. Don't forget we only remember the good times with Murray, (admittedly quite a few - Charlton at the Withdean springs to mind) he could be a difficult character and was absolutely rubbish in his first season at Palace.

He does look like the ideal solution but beware rose tinted glasses.

 

[Acker79]

Eh. He can be good (30 goals a season, one ever 2.5 shots). He can be bad (6 goals a season, one every 9 shots). Which would we get? Which one would our system/team result in?

Which Murray would return: the one who wants to prove we should never have let him go; the one who is doing us a favour just by turning up; the one who was deemed not good enough for the premier league so would be returning after thinking he could do better but "failing"?
