Crazy Eddie 0 Posted January 18, 2007 A quote from Grant taken from official site:"Obviously Earnie is absolutely gutted, as am I," he added. "He knowshow highly I regard him as a person, not just as a player. I had spokento him about the transfer window and told him how things can happen soquickly, but he told me how much he was enjoying his football here. Hedidn''t enjoy his time at West Brom, but he was thoroughly enjoying ithere and it''s a major disappointment for us."How does this read to you? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mbncfc 1 Posted January 18, 2007 I don''t think we had sold him, and I don''t think this reads like it. But they obviously would have spoken about what could have happened this month. They know a big offer could have come in which the board may accept, at which point things would move very quickly and he probably would have gone.I assume it was a case of discussing the possibilities. As they''ve said, everyone has their price... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
