Fairplay to the guy made a genuine video and goodbye when he didnt have to
it was a pleasure watching him everytime i went last season he put in 110% and never stopped running alongside his goals he will go down a great striker and person for our club even if it was only a year
family comes first and whatever his reasons best of luck to him and i for one will clap him on his return
i do respect him for handing in a transfer request though, too many players want moves and throw their toys out but want to keep their cut of the transfer.
Absolutely fine with his reasons for going. Obviously family didn't settle, manager didn't want him playing CF and he made a choice. People are critical of him choosing Brum over Hudds are dopey as hell. 15k a week at Brum or 8k a week at Hudds?
Thank you for that video from Alfie. Not sure how we can blame the club if Alfie’s family had moved back up North. Also interested to hear their eldest was turned down by three schools they wanted here and that factored in to his decision. Thank you for the memories Alfie, a true goal scoring hero from last season and now we have to move forwards and support Nathan and the club.
So coming from the horses mouth will this put an end to all the hissy fits and meltdowns,all the best Alfie but we move on like we always have done COYR

Not a chance, people will still swear blind there is more to the story.

For anybody who wants to jump on him wanting to move by asking for a transfer, I imagine that the club insisted on this so not having to pay Alfie any outstanding contract.

Only niggle is that he signed for Birmingham....a Midlands club. If he had gone to Huddersfield then fair play but just leaves a bad taste on the mouth. I know Huddersfield maybe needed to offer more, but effectively they offered more than we paid for him & after he put in a transfer request there was only going to be 1 outcome. What would happened if Brum hadnt have stepped in ??

So, it turns out it weren't down to the Gaffer not rating him, or the nasty man in the pink trousers cashing in. Live and learn....... 🙄

I'm sure there was a tear in his eyes as well.
Genuinely hope the guy does well and sets him and his family up for life.
