Have to agree, that’s a pretty poor comment if he made it.
He does seem to have been particularly ingratious in his attitude to his departure.
Played wi a face like a well skelped arse all season and not one word of thanks or gratitude to AFC for giving him a platform to increase his bank balance (I’m not saying it’s a step up, there is no universe where Birmingham is a step up from Aberdeen).
Just confirms it’s the right time to sell.
I don’t usually give a fuuck about players who leave, and I don’t give a fuuck about Cosgrove now, but I will be slightly interested to see how he does down there.
I assume there’s a sell on so for that reason alone we need to hope he does well to get us more cash down the line...
Take it nobody watched the 5 minute video then and just decided to rant out of context...
He said he had really good times with us, down to the manager (!), fans and teammates. Loved and will miss the likes of the European adventures and saw us as a great stepping stone in his career (he’s going to say that going to his new club!).
He said the training intensity was higher than he’s had for a few years and that’s probably true as the pace of play and fitness in England’s top and 2nd tier is probably better than ours.
He even admitted he didn’t know how he went on the scoring streak he did, a bit like us the fans he probably knows it was completely unexpected but he will try to keep it going.
It’s easier to be bitter and rant at him leaving though I guess....
Charlie Adam was always the best example. Up here you could see he had a cracking left peg but was way overweight in modern football terms, goes down there and gets in a bit better shape and plays in the Prem. Don’t know if it’s the training methods or if the extra wages motivate them a bit more...or both!
Apparently that Hornby is injured for 2-3 weeks.
Good point. I’m not sure what the rules are for this?
If he’s out for 3 weeks, that’s about 4-5 games he’s missing..
