Salop, I agree with Dingle in so much as he generated the circumstances so he could leave on a free to go to the prem, how many other players have done this at Albion and other clubs. I also agree with Minizin, we were sliding down the pyramid with a T-rex in charge, he was thinking of his career, Palace were established in the top flight, doing well, he got more money, could have been good for his international status but it hasn't worked out. Palace also having a bad season, I don't blame him for moving on no more than I blame Ben for joining Watford when he did. I don't agree with the way agents and players screw clubs over, the same way clubs used to screw players over but that's football.
I honestly feel we would be pushing Burnley rather than hoping to catch Millwall had he stayed. I would take him back, the greed league sucks, it creates these situations, I remember the days of level playing fields. I think we're all on the same page, different paragraphs but the same page.
We all want what's best for the Albion, unlike players / agents we know the grass isn't always greener over the fence. We can't afford him and it will be a struggle to get into the playoffs lottery let alone promoted.
