But now we have a 'war chest'.They said they had big plans for January. We’ve come out of it weaker than we went in.

I think you're underestimating how good Hoppe might have looked in training, Viv.Rogers and Crooks made 12 of our league goals and scored another 5. They made more than Engel, Greenwood, Barlaser, Jones, Forss and Hackney combined. And we’ve shifted both of them, one AFTER our opportunity to replace him has just ended.
To me it’s madness. Do you want the money in the bank or the stuff happening on the pitch? People seem more interested in accountancy now. Crooks should be in our 18 week in, week out, until he is replaced by a better player.
Has Hoppe been on the juice?I think you're underestimating how good Hoppe might have looked in training, Viv.
If I'm honest, I get a little buzz of excitement when we sell a player. Don't ask me why, I can't explain it.
Crooks requested the moveMust be a case of Crooks fancying a move too, rather than Boro saying " we've accepted an offer, pack your bags, you're sold".
And must be a good deal for all parties......although I'm gutted he's leaving.
By crying myself to sleep tonight, tears soaking my Boro duvet
maybe he got it right..Think Rob got that one wrong but doesn’t want to admit it
I’d imagine the players already knew. Unless FMTTM knew before CrooksI think it was all the immediate goodbye and good luck messages that were unnerving.. mid season.. January.. imagine that getting back to the players.. the first hint of a rumour.
Put a transfer request in, or was tempted specifically by the opportunity to play in the MLS? Assume the latterCrooks requested the move
Can't separate the two.Do you want the money in the bank or the stuff happening on the pitch?
I mean.. he wasn't moving before it was mentioned on here... maybe the Salt Lake City scouts saw the post and moved quickly to make it happen..I’d imagine the players already knew. Unless FMTTM knew before Crooks
