Because he's not playing that well in a shit premier league side that has a rotten defence all round? The fact is, he was one of the best at our level and would be a massive upgrade on what we have. Shame we weren't able to sign him IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wainy316 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Look, we don't like him, he was nasty to us so we're just going to say nasty things about him okay? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demitri_C Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 So apparently Fulham paid Bryan 60k a week while we only offered around 16-20k Insane money no one is going to pay him that sort of money if they did deals like this with all the players they signed they are going to be in huge trouble next year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodders0223 Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 That's Fulham **** for the next few years then with that kind of wage bill. I thought they had actually sorted themselves out the past few years but they have set themselves back a decade again with some utter shite.

He was offered to play in the same league as his boyhood club, probably on a bit more money. At the last minute a club in a higher league, based in London where he gets to experience capital live as a young individual, offers a lot more money. Why wouldn’t he accept the second offer? Anyone apart from villa fans would’ve done the same. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone apart from villa fans would’ve done the same. I do agree Mikeyp but I also think the manner in which Bryan opted to sign for Fulham exacerbates the vitriol towards him. If reports are correct, it was all set to be completed with only a last minute call from Fulham stopping it. However, instead of communicating this, Bryan allegedly just got into his car and ignored our calls until he signed for Fulham. Quite an amateur and disrespectful way of handling things - I don’t think we’d have stood in his way if he’d let us know of the Fulham offer. (I recall Bristol City also revelled in his last minute snubbing of our contract offer, which was pretty small time too) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 I have got no ill will against him at all, but he's awful. To be fair the Fulham defence is horrific...but having watched them a few times this season he has been a major culprit. There is no way in a billion years he will ever play top flight football again, he is clueless. If their back four step up he's 10 yards behind playing someone onside. If they drop deep , he's 20 yards inside the opposite half letting the right winger and the right back bomb on. All.The.Time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
