    Shame Sharp can't match his personality football wise.

    I still like Billy. He's just not good enough at this level. That video highlights how many big goals he came up with, in that run-in.

    Alex Crook arguing with Mark Higgins on twitter. It's actually weird that Crook a less of a dick head then Mark.

    Quite a few players made major contributions, but have now gone on to pastures new. Always have a soft spot for players like Hammond, Sharp, and Barnard. I suppose the surprise was that some (inc. Lambert, Spider etc) stayed for so long.

    The crying from all the other fans as we casually waltzed through their division was the best bit.

    Proper football fans in that division though. Smaller gates but much, much better atmospheres.

    False. The division contained Pompey.

    Well if his salary here is too high for a Championship club then his options are either take a pay cut for first team football or rot.

    Of course, but I would not expect the Cherries to be too high on the salary paying list, unless there owner is now coughing up quite a bit extra?

    Well, they've received a decent amount on the Lallana sell-on and from also selling Grabban. Should have quite a few million from that, which could surely be reallocated to wages. They've got Junior Stanislas, Elliot Ward and Ian Harte, who all probably earn a fair amount.

    Billy, for whatever reasons, good and bad, has decided to be sitting on his salary for a while now, over and above playing competitive football. That's why he's been so hard to shift to this point, because he's not allowed for a reduction. I've always found the slight hero-worship for him to be a little bit misplaced with that in mind, but perhaps I'm missing something.
