Always was a massive fan of him. Remember he used to get absolute pelters on here for absolutely no reason. One of the most talented players we've had here.

That should have been a sending off! And we should have gone on to win that game. Our season didnt pan out well after that incident.

It wasnt just him, the atmosphere in general that season we went down to league 2 was toxic. Home and away, million miles from that now thank god.

Can only assume it was his decision to leave. Towards the end of the relegation year Robins was picking him most weeks playing behind Beavon.

Very good technical player. That Millwall performance along with Maddison, Armstrong and O’Brien was pure class.
I’d agree with that. No issue with Murphy as he was clearly a good player, but I think it changed the dynamic of the frontline who had gelled really well early on.

Did you go to that game at Millwall? Was such an amazing day out!
Will never forget that guy in a full suit standing in the home end who got hauled out by stewards after trying to kick off with the entire away end.
'Your suit's from Matalan' has to be the best chant I've ever heard at a game! It sent him absolutely mental.

Agreed. He rode a tackle well. Was hacked left, right amd Centre but never feinged or faked injury or bottled tackles or challenges. Sheff Utds left back should have had 3 red cards the night we played them on bad challenges on Lemeiras alone. But, somebody on twitter said its because he was lightweight so it must have been true.
Class player with an inch perfect pass (seen many a time splitting defences for Arma to run on to) and teams knew it amd tackled/kicked him out of the game. To say a player who is fouled a lot is lightweight is just ridiculous. Thats like saying O'Hare or Grealish are both too lightweight to play English football. Nonsense.

I think it was constantly playing Murphy that upset JOB which rocked the applecart and sent the wheels off. Murphy was an exciting player, bit fpr me should have been used off the bench against tired defenders. JOB was much more effective starting I feel.

Jesus. Think people are getting very carried away here.
He was okay most of the time and had moments of magic like that reverse pass for Armstrong that time. But I think people are remembering those moments and not the other 80% of the time where he was mediocre.

I was at the Sheffield United game and he was the best player on the pitch, in spite of that appalling tackle.
However, there seemed lots of other games when he was a peripheral figure and I would include the Checkatrade final in that.

I remember that tackle got me out of my seat shouting at the TV (game was on SKY). An absolute straight red, but of course he only got a yellow.
Awful performance that day, and we had a goal chalked off (2 yards over the line)

As I recall Grendel couldn't stand him so he had to go
