IMO, Grabban NCFC best moment.

[simmo_2 6]

When Grabban got sent off against Rotherham last season it was so important to NCFC. I think Alex Neil had decided he was the No1 striker going into play offs. Then what Cameron Jerome did in the play offs is history.

Thank you Grabban for losing your head!

And without knowing all the facts, some people are quite nasty to our players. No wonder he didnt want to be here!

[quote user="djc"]And without knowing all the facts, some people are quite nasty to our players. No wonder he didnt want to be here![/quote]Its a fact that he walked out of the hotel though, isn''t it?

[JF 694]

What facts would these be then? He walked out of the hotel because he was trying to push the move to Bournemouth through. I was working for one of our players at the time and I can tell you his reaction was the same as the fans

[Rich T The Biscuit 676]

I think the was everyone''s reaction at the time!

But trust me when I say that the rumours about why he left were true, had it confirmed by more than one player.

But does anybody that posts on here actually know why he walked out of the hotel?, lots of opinions and rumours, but does anybody actually know the facts?......I am sure the truth will out......

And don''t forget how much this will be hurting Bradley''s feelings

[If wed only kept Howie.. 3]

I believe it was because he was going to start on the bench with Wolfswinkel starting..

If you look at the subs bench that night there was no other striker in the squad..

[If wed only kept Howie.. 3]

I should have added - he played for Rotherham before Bournemouth.. so I guess he really wanted to play..

Maybe he can go play for Rotherham again after he gets fed up with not starting for Bournemouth (hopefully in the Championship)..

My favourite Grabban moment is the part where he left for 8m. Lol

And to think that scoring in 2 games against Ipswich normally makes you a Norwich City hero.

(And yes I do know that half of f******g Norwich did it).

I may not know "all" the facts but I do know that he did punch a player in a must win game, he did get sent-off and he did cost us the chance of an automatic promotion spot.

Personally I would rather have a disciplined player who is dedicated and respectful to the club than a slightly better player who behaves like that in vital games.

As Grabban is no better and probably worse than the other three players available selling him for £8 million seemed like an obvious choice.

It is very easy for fans to forget that Grabban was one of the players who put us in a position to gain promotion, and yes the sending off was not good. However considering the Oppo player had got him in a headlock not totally surprising on spur of moment reaction. And it w asnt a punch otherwise player would have been out cold dont even think he made contact.

Like many players he never made transition to premier league and may never do so! I was at Rotherham when he did runner which was when he lost the fans totally unacceptable behaviour.

Big big gamble by Bournemouth but wouldnt it be nice to see us do likewise plenty of players in Champs desperate for big time. Austin Rhodes etc
