A 300K signing who did far better than a number of our multi million pound signings. Always pressed and harassed opponents, forcing errors, and gave it his all. We got more than our money’s worth.
Was asked to carry out a role that probably wasn’t best for him and to do it over many more minutes than we probably wanted. Was left lacking quality at times when simple finishes were needed while conversely scoring worldies.
His character and smile, and the way he bought into the club was a lovely thing to see and it seems that may be missed more than his on pitch performance.
I was in the Brummie for the overhead strike against Stoke and that was a sight to behold in person.
A good deal for the club no doubt, and hopefully we can find a suitable replacement, assuming Maja and Cole aren’t… So long BTA and thank you
