    Wish him well? I hope his career fizzles out and he drops down the leagues to non league

    Luckily for us he did ok at MK Don's. Otherwise we could have been stuffed.

    Got to be honest, I havnt hated many Safc players but I absolutely despise Will Grigg. Absolute coward and one that doesn't graft. Not a good mix. His entire deal, contract and ethos is a stain and a reminder of how incompetent the Donald era was.

    Can’t stand the bloke. STID was embarrassing. He never wanted to come here yet Donald pushed for it. Should just have let Maja’s contract run out. Noises that Vito isn’t coming back. Was a romantic move and a very ambitious one. Hopefully another keeper to come in.

    Can't read any further than him just starting to talk about the 3rd premier league player. How does the story finish?

    Easily (and by some distance) the worst signing in this club's history

    Anyone know what's happening with Hume? Mental that this hasn't been sorted one way or the other.

    Still Rodwell for me, then Grigg tied with Adnan Januszai (or however you spell it)

    By the sound of it we've offered a contract which is not acceptable to Hume and his agent but we have made sure we will get compo if he goes anywhere else. I can't see anyway back for the lad

    I'm not sure how the second worst signing we've ever done can be a loan where we didn't have an option/obligation)?

    Rodwell was the worst 30m cost including his 5 year contract and delivered 1 league win

    Alvarez was the worst loan signing considering that ended up costing us north of 20m

    He has ****ed up big time. I think he is fit again now but not sure if we are still allowing him to use the facilities at the AoL. I'm surprised the club havent called time on it, the deadline we gave him was weeks ago.

    For me, The context of the Grigg deal (paying over the odds, getting **** all in return and blowing the transfer budget for the following summer) make it a worse signing than Rodwell as his fee was a drop in the ocean those days. Having said that, his wages probably robbed us of making 4 or 5 decent signings in the Championship

    Neither of them are anything other than absolute turd though

    Mainly the lads attitude, he used to flinch like a child whenever anyone looked like they might try and tackle him. Never saw another player do that before or since. How he made it as a player I’ll never know.
