loved GBgutted he left but gave brilliant service for a long time was in some kind of deal with micheal standing . I cant remember what the deal one but GB was an absolute bargain.
Watching BBC Breakfast this morning they were talking about GB breaking the record.Firstly the sports presenter (forget her name) announced that he'd broken the record playing "mostly for Aston Villa" at which point Dan Walker chipped in with "and Everton". Then when the sports presenter mentioned how many goals he'd scored "almost all in an Aston Villa shirt" Walker again chipped in to point out that GB should be 2nd in the list because Giggs made his debut before the formation of the Premier League so has more top flight appearances.And they say there's no anti-Birmingham bias at the BBC.
How many times did he try to orchestrate a move again? Was it just the three?

Was it just the three?Three times?I remember he was close to going to Portsmouth in 2006 but that was when we were on our knees in the last days of Ellis owning us so it was more trying to get some cash rather than him trying to force through a move to Pompey.As soon as Lerner took over he signed a new deal so it was only unable to get to the champions league that meant he moved on which I didn't begrude him at 28 so older than Young and Milner.
Well 2006 we looked a team just biding our time before we got relegated. No signings and the Lerner takeover was stalling. At the time Pompey were building an exciting team and would've given him a wage increase.
Yep, that NOTW has always soured what I think of him. Still a very good player but i'll always think he was a twat for that.
