No clapping, no booing from me. Robins shat on us, but we've all moved on. Sheff I disliked but he's not at the club anymore, just how I like it

clarke was a tryer, but do think it was time he moved on. No issue with him though

I will not boo Robins he went and was right to go. If either of the ex players score I think they should celebrate as should all players against there old team it has got stupid now with players not celebrating it is one of the things I hate most alongside undisclosed transfer fees.

If they come over and applaud them, I will applaud back. Robins asked SISU for assurances over transfers. If he had them, im sure he would have stayed. Sheffers and Jordan didn't have much choice in their departures. If they show us respect, i'll respect them back

I would say that you can't say fairer than that.

I will be cheering Clarke's every touch to celebrate this hopefully being one of the last times I ever have to watch him play!

Gary Mac will get a polite ripple of applause, should still be playing for us in my opinion. Another player that twat face has let go before his time.

Robins did was a quitter and left us in a shit position with an inferior replacement but who could blame him with what followed immediately after his exit? It was justified.

Couldn't give a shit about any of em now. They are dead to me. I might even turn my back on em in the style of Naboo.

I always felt McSheffrey was overrated (more so second time round).

I always felt Clarke was a truly awful footballer.

I always felt Robins was a manager we could progress with.

Now they have all left I feel little for them. However despite their faults, you can't deny all three gave their all for the club while they were here, so as previously mentioned by another poster, if they applaud the fans, I will applaud back. If not I won't. My reaction will be reactive rather than proactive.

That's not quite how Robins told it but the rest I agree with.

But left with things to say about the Council? I heard he quadrupled his salary and was closer to his family, I think he would have gone either way wouldn't he?

Ha I forgot you didn't like McSheffrey perhaps he should've gone in all fairness but I would have him back ahead of the dross we have now. Even with the pretend cross and cut inside trick he would still be ahead of our current top scorer Reda '50%' Johnson.

Now Jordan Clarke on the other hand......

I'll clap McSheff and Jordan beforehand, but once the whistle goes, I'll only cheer for those in Sky Blue.

Still remember all those dozy fuckers cheering when Andy Morrell scored for Blackpool against us. Cheer him beforehand, fair enough, but not when he scores against you!

McSheffrey is the closest thing to a "legend" there has been since I have been a proper supporter, ie going to games, which was the last season at Highfield Road. I will definitely clap him. And even if he wasn't as good in the 2nd period he wasn't as bad as people make out, he just wasn't as good as the first time.

It was a bit of both but it wasn't to do with transfer, he said he had a good relationship with the owners and board and that they were doing everything possible but he also said he sought assurances from the owners and they couldn't give him them (presumably on the ground situation) and that was a reason for him leaving, then when he left he said the council needed to help the club out.

I'm sure at his age you would of turned down 15-20 grand a week just to be a legend!!!! Decent player made the most of his opportunity and was financially secure for the rest of his life from the minute he signed the Brum contract.. This is the business, most players want to become pro's now because of the material things it brings ,, not because they want to score at wembley in an Fa cup final... Jumpers for goalposts and play for hours being your favourite player are no longer,,, Fook me most would not put the top down in case of getting it dirty or prefer to press a button while sitting on their arse's than dream.....

I say fair play to him, Wilson, Christie and Davenport who all made or making more than a decent living out of the game.. My only regret is i was never good enough to have the same decision that these boys had too.
