Colin Kazim Richards

I had no idea you went through all that nonsense, Jam. Its just unbelievable that some idiots turned on you after what you did for the club. It wouldn't have been warranted even if you HAD chosen him. I think a few trivial antics since he left have clouded most people's view of him. He was (and still is) a decent player, and at the time, a great prospect.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

From reading the Rovers forums, they seem considerably surprised at the effort he put in last night, which rather suggests that it's not his normal performance level.

Perhaps he was fired up because he didn't make himself that popular after leaving us. Whatever, it looks as though he turns it on when it suits him, and that nothing has really changed in that respect.

I understand that people have their reasons for really not liking him and/or rate him as a player or a person - that's absolutely their choice etc.
Sadly every time he pops up on NSC I now fully expect someone along the way to include me in the dig...

Looks as if CKR takes himself VERY seriously, as he has now BLOCKED @NotGusPoyet from following him on Twitter after taking offence at some of the tweets referring to his ever expanding waistline.

 

[TSB]

According to the beeb, he commited ten fouls (including THREE in injury time). Not booked. Top reffing.

It's ultimately proved to be a very bittersweet experience for me.

I'm very proud of what happened - and ultimately with sell ons the win 'earned' the club nearly half a million to aid them during some rough old times at Withdean.
I understand that people have many gripes with the guy - and I have my own views... and I know I was protective of him at the time, and I have my reasons for that too, but my personal upset comes from the numerous (40+) incidents of abuse that have been aimed directly at me via email and pms, and verbal abuse at matches over the years.

Ridiculously I get blamed for him not turning out to be the player that we all wanted him to be. I'm genuinely sorry about that - but I'm not sorry that I helped earn the club £500,000 and at the end of the day, the club is the more important thing.

Seriously? that happened? Blimey. Its not as if you went and told McGhee who to buy, is it? There are some real sad and stupid idiots out there, I really can't comprehend any set of circumstances why they would hold you responsible.

God, imagine the grief actual players and managers must get in their day-to-day lives

He's probably feeling absolutely LIVED.

Well quite!

The home match against Blackburn in 3 weeks will be interesting...

No doubt on the back of a number of Albion fans taking the piss.

surely not

We may not have actually outlaid the 250k ourselves, but it was still a massive chunk of money for us. We could have elected to spend it on a whole host of different individuals.

Granted we did sell him for profit, but I would still have liked to have seen a bit more from him during his time here.

Saying that, I don't hate the guy either.

We also got a percentage from the Fenerbahce sale too, a very good sum of money with that too!

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Let us not debate where he came from or how that came about, merely the fact that he acted like a complete ARSE last night, and deserves lots of stick if he gives it the Big I Am when they come to town next month.

 

[blue2]

Coca cola kid badge don't think he was ever happy with that as a label

 

[Ⓩ-Ⓐ-Ⓜ-Ⓞ-Ⓡ-Ⓐ]

Being recalled by Galatasary and sold on to Bursaspor according to BBC Gossip

 

[danish seagull]

Yeah talk sport said the same.

 

[Icy Gull]

So he won't be wanting to prove a point again when they come down here, good news imo

CKR, KR
He eats all the pies for tea
And Coke paid his transfer fee
CKR, KR

 

[Wozza]

Funny to think he was our star player (in theory), but wouldn't get into our team now.

Coke hero to Coke zero, if you will.
