Me personally, I don't blame him for that either, but his behaviour since has been childish and petulant.
I've absolutely no issue with his signing decisions, they're entirely up to him, it's his ****-like celebrations at Sunderland away and Cardiff at home that warrant him getting dogs abuse. Anyway, it was quite funny, he was obviously getting wound up about and it serves the little twat right.
I think more people hate his ****ish attitude towards us in games more. Which is a perfectly valid reason.
I thought his celebrations we're amusing (in hindsight obviously) and fully justified, if you can't take it then don't give it out in the first place. Most of his frustration yesterday came from what was happening on the pitch, his midfield offered nothing and our defence bullied him.
And why does he do that? Anything to do with our scorned, bitter bunch giving him stick for leaving them?
Funny how others who took stick while they were here can play against us (Delaney) without been c**t though, isn't it... Sounds to me like he needs to get thicker skin.
I don't disagree with this ata ll - absolutely he had the right to go to where he felt was best for his career. BUT - as many posters have said that his behavious since was childish and petulant. One other thing to consider, how off-putting would it be for him to be boo'd and jeered all game? I know these guys are professionals, but I dont think he would have liked 20,000 people booing and laughing at him. I think that contributed to his yellow card and eventual substitution - taking off a good player!! The crowd played their part as 12th man very well on Saturday re Mr Campbell!!!
In 2008 when we offered Manchester United £7 million he told a Liverpool supporter he wouldn't sign for us because Hull is a ****hole. Everything he's done since then shows him to be a man of his word.
He was applauded at Sunderland before acting like a twat, which in turn led to him getting abuse at the KC, he has no class and he can go **** himself, I've no sympathy.
Surely it's you that needs to get the tougher skin? He's taken it and given it back in equal measures. You've given it, and thrown your toys out when he's given it back.
Wait, so when he gives it back, it's fine, but when we do it you call it throwing toys out of the pram? Double standards as usual Andy...
Is celebrating a goal classed as throwing toys out of a pram though? Get a grip, it must be pretty embarrassing?
He's going to get abuse at every game, he invited it, so can hardly complain when it's forthcoming. Anyway, it was funny, it added to the entertainment on Saturday. Also, as a side issue, junior and I started singing 'what a waste of money' when Dwight Gayle was about to come on and he turned, looked up and smiled at us. At least the lad has a sense of humour, he's the first one to turn round and respond since Holloway, who as a coincidence, was managing Palace at the time.
Who suggested goal celebrations? Every time he has returned he has been a right dirty ****. Saturday was same as usual, was a whinging dirty prat. You can't talk about embarrassing fans with that fat **** with the drum at your ground...
I think we'll survive. Now stay on your own board and complain about your piss-poor display against Burnley.
In private he insulted our club and our city. Unfortunately for him he didn't realise who he was talking to. For some of us his disrespect has nothing to do with his goal celebrations and he deserves everything he gets.
who did he slag of Hull and the club to at Liverpool ? also i dont see anything wrong with his shhhh celebration , its perfectly expected after the jeers he got . All part of the pantomime and when he plays us , he is the baddie
