Anyone else noticed Harrison is starting and playing lots for Fiorentina and they've started to climb the table a little.
I hope he does well enough for them to want to buy him.

All the best to him, Joffy, Bamford, Phillips, and the whole cavalcade of ex-Leeds lads.

Delighted for him, but that's because, personally, for any player who behaved as Harrison has, in declaring his love of Everton and discarding Leeds United, I never, ever want them back. Harsh, irrational, almost certainly, but I'm very blinkered where Leeds United are concerned, and I make no apologies for it.

Just as a matter of interest, Class. Do you feel the same way about Cantona, Milna, Ferdinand, Smith, Raphina, White, Gray, Rutter, Summerville? All put great shifts in while they were with us, but most went on to achieve more without us.
Bit old school, expecting loyalty. If that was the case in the modern game, transfer fees would be way less. Cause Raphina would pretty much only be worth what we paid for him rather than 5 times more.

To answer your question, Aus, do I feel the same? No. All of your examples, however much it pains me to say it (as we're talking Devon here) , went on to bigger things than we could provide at the time. So, good luck to them. Smith and Ferdinand still hurts, but that is because of who it was.
We were blessed to have Raphinia (one of the best players in world football) as long as we did. But Harrison (his mum too) , even BA, still smarts. I would also draw you towards my original post: harsh, irrational, absoblooming loutely. It is just a personal vengeance thing that eases my pettiness a little.

It all depends on the circumstances of the move, and sometimes the club they go to. Some, like Raphina, did it the right way, giving 100% right up to the end of his contract and moving on with (most of) our best wishes.
Others were not so, like Jack Harrison and Harry Kewell, for instance. I'm a big believer in "never go back", but some of those listed I might consider re-signing if the time were right.

You can't lump BA and Harrison into the same bracket, surely? BA made a mistake, then spent a season and a half running more than Forrest Gump on whizz. Not to mention the points he has won us with his goals and assists.

Agree, Mo. BA made a mistake, but despite getting a hard time at the beginning of his "comeback" he's never stopped giving his all, and has improved significantly as a player. We all make mistakes, but BA rectified his, while JH didn't and probably wasn't too bothered.

Don't get me wrong, Mo. I cheer anyone who wears the shirt, and I actually hated the booing of JH in the friendly at the Aviva Stadium, and I cheered him! But, whilst I was not in favour of booing a player wearing the shirt, I did not shed a tear when JH left, and I agree BA has run himself into the ground to reintegrate himself, and credit to him, but I would be non plusses if/when he leaves. As I said, it's irrational.

Harrison who? BA is a far better player. I did like him, but kissing the badge of Everton was just too much. ?
