I thought it weird. Simms not played in playoffs? 99 appearances. One game triggers 2 million payout to Everton?
Had we gone up that means a profit of 148 million rather than 150 million. If Lampard felt he could be the difference to us going up I'm sure he would have played.
More likely is that he was injured given he has been carrying an issue for a while now and we just put him on the bench to try and kid Sunderland that he was an option off the bench. Lampard doesn't seem the vindictive type to make an example of someone
Check.99 games

He willWay too risky to not play him for that. Let's say we sell him and he tears it up next season with another club and bangs in 20 goals. Lampard and King would be in for an absolute roasting.
Weird, but would explain his omition, but then again why have him on the bench???I thought it weird. Simms not played in playoffs? 99 appearances. One game triggers 2 million payout to Everton?

Ellis, are the rumours true that you never sleep and stay up all night playing your Xbox?I thought it weird. Simms not played in playoffs? 99 appearances. One game triggers 2 million payout to Everton?
Bit harsh tbf.Sadly this guy is crap

He wasn't injured
We didn't owe any payout for appearances

I agree, there are the ingredients, depends on him ultimately and the system I think, he’s not a loan striker.I'm still convinced there's a player in there. It wouldn't surprise me if he went on & did well elsewhere, but it seems Lampard doesn't believe he can get it out of him so probably best he moves on in the summer.
Bit of a strange one, the Mboro game at home was the biggest game of the season, simms starts we win 2-0, he did okay, then doesn’t get a min in a game where over 2 legs wer‘e slinging crosses into the box and need some height
He’s not been great all season but wev‘e won a lot of games he’s started in, there’s no way he doesn’t play a single minute in those 2 games,He was poor against Middlesbrough
Saddlebrains likes this post!Ridiculous how stupid twitter rumours start to become gospel. World we live in now I guess.

Exactly, there’s no way lampards thinking of keeping him, prob wasn’t impressed with him at Everton either, shame, really want him to come good, proved he can score at every level he’s been atHe wasn't injured

You would guess so, wouldn't youDo we reckon that’s him out the door then? Wonder if we’ll be able to recoup what we spent.
Don’t think we can wait for him to come good can we , but you just know whatever club he goes to he’ll be a totally different player, 6 ft 3 shithouse. If your a defender you should hate playing against him, it’s the opposite.You would guess so, wouldn't you
I have stood by him all season and did last season too, but the last time he scored was Feb 15th. When you add in to that, his inability to hold the ball up to allow us to build an attack, you are then left with a big problem.
He may well do well elsewhere, but you would have to think his time with us is at an end
If there was an appearance payout it wouldn't be anything like 2 million, 100,000 I could believe but 2 million, laughable. Anyway it's clear he made way for Haji, when BTA went on he took EMC's position.I thought it weird. Simms not played in playoffs? 99 appearances. One game triggers 2 million payout to Everton?
Ellis Simms couldn't tear his way out of a wet paper bag, let alone tear up a league. He failed to look good in Scotland and even I (an overweight, 40 something, Sunday league GK) could look good up front in Scotland. He's scored 40 goals total in 5 years, what's the odds on him doing 20 in 1? Very high odds that's for sure, regardless of where he is and in which league.Way too risky to not play him for that. Let's say we sell him and he tears it up next season with another club and bangs in 20 goals. Lampard and King would be in for an absolute roasting.
