The social media team didn't make much of a fuss about it, which surprised me.
Thought there'd have at least been some goal compilation.

Sad to see him leave. But if we’ve turned a profit on a player who’s main attribute is hard work ( whilst this of course a very good one to have) then I can understand.
It does however leave us requiring a hard working forward who will press the opposition and be willing to muck in/ track back.
Good luck to him. Although I suspect he will be playing champo football next year. I have to say though us selling for profi and developing a younger player who was unknown when we got him really is a very positive sign for the club moving forward.

A lot of our comments seem similar to those of Ipswich fans when we signed Walters. It'll be interesting to see how he gets on. Made me laugh reading a few comments on the BBC story about how he will flourish at Luton because it's not a toxic environment with a new manager every season. Not sure I buy into that. Jacob Brown isn't fit to lace Jon Walters' boots. Chalk and cheese.

Good business, he just wasn't good enough and surprised he has managed to get up a level!!
Anyway, good luck to the lad, always gave his best and Stoke fans always warm to a grafter!!
I imagine with Vidi, Wes, Chiqi, Gayle, Campbell and Mmmmae to choose 3 from we are covered anyway???

Luton fan on YouTube recons 2.5m to 3M plus addons. If that’s correct it’s a poor fee especially as we paid 2 million for him

No chance it's as low as that. We paid about £1.9m and he's got 2 years left on his deal, with a chunk having to go to Barnsley.
We're under no pressure to sell.
I'd be amazed if it wasn't around the £5m people are mentioning - they've paid that kind of fee already this summer for Chong and Giles.

It just doesn’t happen though does it? D I guess they might get a montage made but not sure what purpose it would serve in this instance.

Hopefully this transfer sends a message to our other players that if you put the graft in you will get rewarded.

I wish him nothing but the best .
A likeable guy who put in a shift ,never shirked and was the least of our problems while he was here.
Yes it was frustrating/ infuriating at times when he'd fluff a simple pass that would put someone through on goal and he wasn't ideal playing against teams that would sit and invite us to break them down.
Perhaps the right time for him to go depending what's happening with Campbell.
Time will tell .Be interesting to see how much game time he gets in the PL.

Thinking about it a bit more, I’m liking this new Stoke City. Interesting signings and getting decent money/profit for players who really once we reach the premier league will probably be surplus anyway. As much as I admire his industry and 100% commitment I really don’t think Brown will ever me much better than he is now and it’s a good time to sell with two years remaining on his contract. Of course I wish him the best of luck and thank him for his service but really in the long run we’re probably better off cashing in.

I bet the same people that were moaning about how wank he was are also moaning that the club haven’t got a big enough transfer fee 😆

I liked Browny. He demonstrated an attitude, application, and work ethic that was desperately lacking by so many of his peers over the last couple of years.
On top of that, he managed to chip in with a decent number of goals in a pretty poor team. Without his contribution, I wonder where we would be.
However, onwards and upwards! If we have managed to turn a profit and bring in an appropriate replacement, then it will be a good piece of business overall (for all parties).
Good luck to the lad. 👍
