what exactly is your problem with me? there are 100s of posters on here calling Ross a rat, snake, useless etc etc, all in the same way as me, yet for some reason you always pick me out?
he's not a good player at all, he is sh1t. every run ends in dispossession, or misplaced passes. he can't tackle to save his life.
I'm sure you will trot out some assist stat from him to back up your argument. well how about you trot out some tackles made stats, or misplaced pass stats, or dispossessed stats? being top of a stat table doesn't always make you good, you have to look at the whole picture of their all-round ability.

I have pulled a few people up.

If you can't see the lad has ability i think you should possibly give up watching football and find a new sport to watch.
 
Absolutely gutted, don’t know why but until today I always had hope he would sign, naive of me I know.

But like I said earlier hope the glass chinned rat get bingoed round what ever town he ends up in.

I think the World Cup is out of the question for Ross at this point, too many players ahead of him. Gaining match fitness and brokering a hefty sign-on fee is all that's left for him to achieve this season.

Especially now that Jack Wilshere is enjoying a renaissance.

Little or no chance of Ross going to the World Cup IMO.

No-one 'chased out' lukaku or stones, they both wanted to leave for better clubs who could win things...i suspect its a similar situation with ross

and in fairness to both those players they made they're intentions to leave very clear and we got good money for them. Ross has kept quiet, let others take the blame and allowed his price to drop dramactically to improve his chances of a better contract wherever he ends up. Players will always come and go but he's gone out of his way to part in the worst possible way.

Maybe Ross had already made his stance clear to Farhad, hence him getting called out? Sounds like Ross decided a long time ago he was leaving and never had any intention of ever extending his contract. It's just a shame the club didn't wise up earlier and ship him out 18 months ago for a decent fee.

Ross is a snake, pure and simple. he has shafted the club that nurtured him since a boy, his home town club that he grew up a fan of. A club that has nursed him through 2 major injuries while still paying him hansom wages, and his gratitude is to engineer a free move away with maximum bonus for himself.
I really can't understand ANY fan of this club that backs Ross in this scenario. As a fan, you should want what is best for your club, and that involves recouping money on departures to reinvest. FFP rules mean we cant plow in unlimited money like Chelski and City did to rise up, therefore it is paramount we generate as much business revenue as possible.

Plus he is a waste of space on the pitch as well, but that's just a bonus of him going.

If that's the case why are you so bothered?. You should be pleased he's going to get him off the wage bill.

Same for me.
We've lost one of our own there, sad times.
 

It's a sad day for the club on a number of levels. Everyone is partly to blame. But the methods Ross has used to push for a bosman are disgusting, cowardly and betrayal. He will see proper booing next time he's at Goodison the sensitive little RAT.
 
Baines' left foot said:
Can’t blame him one bit.

“Fkn TERNN Ross you brain dead idiot etc.”

“But he’s a local lad so we WANT him to do well blah blah blah”.

Well done for chasing out the three most talented players we’ve had in decades, one by one. Yet you will clap Naismith until your hands are blue.

Only when he scores against us at Goodison;)
