Yes I bloody do!
I was 19 years old and Albion's youngest ever player pal, although didn't stop being the first Albion player sent off for using unsuitable language.
When I died the whole midlands was hurting, I can honestly say since my resurrection I've never been hurt by a player leaving especially one who's never played for us. Just shows you young un's of the 21st century are a soft bunch of pussies not like us hard knocks from the 1890s
In your day , you'd climb out of the trenches, forge some steel in a mill, then drill in a daisy cutter in the last minute from 25 yards.
And smoke twenty Capstan Full Strength, on the bus on the way home.
Is he Hudds?!

Did the Victorians really use the term pussies?
How absolutely unparliamentary of you to suggest i would use such deprave language. I was referring to our soft feline friends that run amok and unchecked through the back country in my day.

Can’t say I’ve ever felt ‘hurt’ by a player leaving
I use the term “hurt” because he was an Albion fan and one of our biggest talents we’ve produced. If we’ve got no chance keeping him. We’ve no chance with anyone else.
Err....Rakeem Harper, 7 or 8 other Academy lads who have just signed pro terms. Don’t over dramatise it
Hurt is the wrong word, but Ziz has a point.
Rodgers is one of the best talents in his age group in the country, and has looked head and shoulders above players in older age groups for several years. As a club we had huge hopes for him, but if we can't convince a player who has been with us for many years, is a West Brom fan, and is on the verge of regular first team football to sign for us then it's frustrating.
Not every kid we produce will take the money and go elsewhere, but players like Rodgers and Barry are few and far between, and when you see the impact and money being mooted over Sancho, Sterling and co, it's gutting that all the work we do can be for so little final benefit.
Agree. “Hurt” was wrong word to use. Disappointed/frustrated most would agree?

There were people outraged, hurt and frustrated at Izzy Brown going to Chelsea. Those people are now taking the necessary medication and are allowed out after 2pm on a Tuesday.

I’m guessing this isn’t the first time that Rogers have hurt you.

He certainly picked a fine time to leave us and take his love to town.
