Good luck to both. Think releasing Albrighton is a mistake.

If it's true that he's been offered £35K elsewhere I'm pretty glad we didn't try to match that.

I'd agree.  Albrighton looked the best of a very bad bunch and letting him go now without compensation smacks of poor business acumen and incompetence.   Also if we are going to be in a relegation scrap next season if the rumoured billionaire would rather pop his savings into the building society instead, selling one of your better players to a relegation rival is stupid.

Albrighton is the only crosser of the ball we have, and no one else offers what he does. He's not a world beater but how much will it cost to buy a player of similar standard? Madness, absolute madness. Whose decision is this? I was just enjoying not thinking about Villa and then they go and fuck my evening up once again.  Thanks.

I reckon you could get a much better player for £35K a week.

I really don't think we need another "crises" thread. This can be merged into one of many others where doomsday scenarios are being discussed.

Albrighton was never good enough for us  six mths ago

but I thought he was one of our best players since Christmas and really put some effort in

this is where we are now at




Good luck Marc

He is not the only crosser of the ball. I think you will find most players can cross the ball as well as him. He does nothing other then lose the ball as soon as he gets it.  It will cost about £500,000 to buy a player of similar standard. Good luck to the lad if he can get a contract with whoever.

He's nowhere near the level of Young, Milner, Downing or Merson etc.... when they were with us. I'm not that bothered he's gone tbh.

Going on a free is bad business considering we got money for Bannan.

I seriously hope someone knows what they're doing in B6.

That's it, the management in B6 are fucking useless. Lerner will see us into The Championship next next season. A pathetic custodian of our club.

Nothing. But I'll imagine he'll go out on loan again next season. Lamberts' hardly been proactive in blooding the youngsters so far in his tenure.

Next season and Lambert don't necessarily go together.

OMG... is this the first post that points to Lambert's dismissal?
