Perhaps when you read Robbie Savage using that excuse to get a move to Blackburn from Birmingham

When his home was in Wrexham............Perhaps you take quotes from Footballers with a pinch of salt

It’s a bit different. Savage used the move closer to home as an excuse to leave. Alfie May went out of his way to find a club closer to home in summer.

That Shrewsbury - Liverpool tie 2 years ago, I recall there was a bit of a clamour on here to sign the one that scored twice in the first game, Jason Cummings (looked up his name, quiet work day). 

Strange how these names come and go never to be heard of again.  We've not done too bad with Charles.

Some players gain mystical status in the run up to and during transfer windows, 'why aren't we going for ..', 'we'll regret not getting...', 'he'll do great for them'. Stockton was going to fire us out of this league at one point

iirc eddie howe were homesick while managing at burnley. 

carlos tevez said it to once when he wanted to move to spain, but soneone figured out that where he were , were actually closer to argentina "as the crow flies" if you fly the actual shortest route. that made me laugh , even if it werent true. 

might have been "its 'closer' to argentina , but youre just not sat in a aeroplane for about half an hour more closer. "

Loved the video where he was trying to give advice to Messi 😂 he’s absolutely mental but well worth watching a few of his videos on a Friday afternoon. The clamour at the airport when he signed for the team in India was bonkers. Just avoid his failed panenka against Dundee Utd.

Surely tevez just wanted to go somewhere where everyone spoke Spanish

Which would feel closer to home. It's not always about distance.

Savage's parents were in Wrexham. He lived in Solihull at the time. He's a lying skank & just wanted out.

May was another matter & genuinely wanted home ... SE London/Kent.

yeah you'd think , but what was used as the excuse werent that. 

"they cant even lie properly" was said when comparing it to leicester's robbie savage. 

i remember laughing a lot while it was pointed out to me.
