Guys c'mon. All this "he has been poorly advised" stuff doesn't cut it.
The sooner you all accept the likely probability that he requested a transfer because he actually wants to leave, the sooner we can all begin to have a conversation without any basis of delusion.

You're asking people to accept something that you've just said isn't a fact, and merely speculative?

All we know is that Bobby has actually said he's been poorly advised, so that at least gives enough credence to consider the possibility.

I had to watch it in a pub with no audio... were people getting on Naismith's back - just going off his celebration?

Yeah I understand these people all have a right to get on his back 'cos they go to away games and stuff... but they then relinquish their right not to be ridiculed for being a total scrote if they decide to float to the surface on social media with a video/ that snidey photo with Naismith and McGeady.

People can ridicule that rat fan all they like, they shouldn't make out like all the fans were doing that because they weren't.

I was shocked by the Echo's match report saying something similar and have complained to them too. You can't account for everyone but it's complete revisionist bollocks to make out Stones was jeered by everyone when he patently wasn't.

So you latch on to one of about half a dozen valid and plausible reasons for the lad to have handed in a transfer request and declare to everyone that if they don't agree with your 'opinion' then they are deluded?

Jeez, you couldn't make this stuff up....

How many transfer requests involve a player that doesn't want to move?

So someone on a fixed term contract in employment is told by his employer he can't leave for what the employee considers a better option. Isn't that akin to slavery?

No because slavery doesn't entail earning double a nurses annual salary on a weekly basis.

Anyone who has any 'sympathy' for a footballer being forced to adhere to their long term contract that they willingly signed is a complete idiot. Football isn't a normal job. Footballers are remunerated quite substantially in order to be controlled by their employers.

It was made very clear from the off that Lukaku wasnt in Jose's plans, No tapping up by the media was needed from our side. We wanted the player, He wanted to come and Chelsea had basically put the player up for sale....It's a very different situation.

......Also we're Everton and ......and.... . * sticks tongue out !!!!

I can't believe I am defending Chelsea but no that's a convienent interpretation . Chelsea seem to have a policy if a player asks to leave then they won't stand in the players way
