Phillips is a class act, has always scored goal and always will, would of fitted in perfectly into our set up, taking the money issue out of the debate, I would of loved him here but i don't think he would of joined, were quite obviously a club on the decline and the chance to join a team that has just come down and strengthening would of been an offer to good to turn down. Hes probaly looked at it and though I can retire as top scorer in the championship having helped a team to promotion. no better way to leave the game.
