Anyone read what this annoying little fuckwit had to say?
"I was expecting boo's and I wasn't dissapointed." Loyalty means nothing to this clown.
He also joked "I haven't been on a night out in Nottingham since!"
He'd get lynched.

Yeh thats a good point, but I know if I went to work for a competitor I'd still be able to walk around town without fearing for my life, but doing it in the football world is a bit different as there are always going to be fans that take it a bit TOO personally.

I'm assumng you'd love to go and join port vale from stoke then, if they had the facilities to offer you more cash.

But in some case like this little shit it grates and rightly so. With is he was out injured for a year and we stood by him and offered him a new contract and then moving to someone else after that is scummy imo. He then came out with the boyhood dream bollocks and then moved to their biggest rivals. Which in my book classes him as a cunter.

Lets say your on 3-4000 a week, very comfortable money. Then, Vale pop in, and offer you 5-6000 a week. personally i would stay at Stoke, the team i love, on comfortable money.

The difference, Dubai, with the average worker and the footballer, is the sheer amount of money involved. In commons' case, going from Forest to Derby, he would already be on god knows how many grand a week, which he can't possibly spend, so going to Derby for more money isn't the same as you or I switching companies.

Would you bollox, You have 10 to 15 years in football to hopefully make enough money to be able to retire and support your family. If you didn't take the extra money to support your family you need shooting.

I bet lawrenson is on more money as a pundit than when he was a footballer.

Commons isn't a wanker, as it turned out and with hindsight he just made some poor career moves. To be fair, like most players when moving to a new club, they're going to big-up their new employers and fans, so I've got nothing against the lad. I just we were big enough and cash rich at the time to hold on to him.

To soem people there is more to life than money... money is the oil in the machine to give you the life that you want. i am money driven, who isnt?... you have to be. We all have the choice, i guess it depends on what you are prepared to settle for in life...

i think that its his words that have made him look a bit of a titty..sayign hes mr nott forest getting a forest badge tatooed on himself...to move to there local rivals especially if there was similar money offers in other places..think he just likes the controversy which to me also makes him a bit more of a titter! i didslike the boy and his attitude and thats because of how hes acted around the times of both moves more than the actual moves themselves.

Apparently he always wears long sleeve shirts for Derby because he has a Forest tattoo on his wrist ;D This is from a mate who supports Derby, aand a mate who supports Forest backed him up.

I'm with Dubia on this Commons isn't just earning for himself, its his wife/husband kids, grandkids ect All this i would never play for vale ect is absolute bullshit! Are some of you sayig that if you playing for stoke and living in stoke and they offered you a contract for 10k a week, and vale and sunderland offered you 20k a week, that you would move your whole family up to sunderland?

Why are we all concerned about him now? He left us under a big cloud and got relegated to div 3 then moved to Derby who are struggling in div 2. IMO he would never have contributed to last seasons promotion challenge had he stayed and a premiership player he certainly aint. Still a money grabbing mediocre player with visions of grandeur way above his station.
