Darren Bent - a retrospective

[Macho]

I can see Ross Miller pulling his finger over his own throat now.

Personally fucking gutted as I think there is a nice guy in Darren Bent and for me was still the dogs bollocks at SAFC.

He's had his head turned and the whole sorry saga (which has all unravelled in the last 36 hours) does not reflect well on him at all.

I'm not convinced by Gyan yet and while his form dipped I would never have dreamed of dropping Bent. I'm not angry right now, just gutted because like most others I thought the guy was the real Mcoy.

When the dust settles he will have his money, but he won't have the memories and for that I can offer just pity. What a fucking idiot he is throwing this away...just hope it doesn't ruin it for all of us left SAFC 'till we die.

Roll on blackpool.

He looked like a rabbit caught in the headlights at the press conference, if he doest hit the ground running this could turn into a nightmare for him and Villa

For 18+ million the Villa fans will be expecting more than just goals, and when his goals dry up for whatever reason he wont get the backing off the Villa fans that he did off us

Definitely this!!! He even started scuffing penalty's as his form dipped, If he can't pick his confidence up very quickly, he's gonna be in shit creek at Villa
because Villa fans aren't patient.

A fucking badge kissing bellend. No wonder the Spurs fans turned on him so much. We now know why.

We fucking played the mags with 10 men. He already had his letter to sir prepared. When we equalised late on he wasn't interested.Fucking shameful. Shameful. £50,000 a week he was getting and he wasn't interested in us equalising v Newcastle. Dummy out the minute we signed Gyan it would appear.

He may need a Lee Clark-style "thigh strain" when Villa play up here next - who knows it could be as early as next season should Villa manage to stay up.

The stick he will get will be immense. And it will be deserved. I will boo the wanker like fuck. I've never done it for anyone but I fucking well will next time that bastard arrives in town with his slightly effiminate voice.
He may need his mam.

He has shafted us and left us completely in the lurch. It could ruin our season, though I doubt it as Brucey is a wise old wheeler and dealer.

I only hope that Villa don't go to trading standards when they realise they are committed to £24 million for a player who often cannot actually strike a ball cleanly and has the first touch of a virgin.

Yes, a top class goalscorer but not a class act in any other way.

Oh and I know you'll read this at some point Darren. You probably have your own name in every search engine of every website on the internet.
I hope it doesn't hurt your apparently tender feelings.

I guess £80K a week will ease the hurt. It will buy a few new Xbox games for you to fuck about on while the fans that idolised you go to work.

Amen Sir.

Absolutely spot on. This needs to be broadcast further afield. And Darren, when you read this, just remember, sometime you will return here. be prepared for the welcome

I won't boo him.

He is dead to me. It is disrespectful to boo dead people.

Time to print sackfuls of monopoly money I think

I'm struggling to think of how he could have handled this any worse. Players move on, that's part of football, but how they do so says a lot about them as people. Unfortunately Darren Bent appears to be a selfish, arrogant and money grabbing prick. If he wasn't happy and he'd waited until the summer then I would have been gutted but at least would have respected his choice.

Does he realise he's signed for Aston Villa? They're a good club but the way he's talking you'd think he signed for one of the current Top 5. It's certainly not the step up he seems to think it is.

I think Lee Clark if the only ex player I would boo and abuse on his return to Sunderland, Darren Bent has just joined that very exclusive list.

I'm pretty pissed off about the whole thing in general, but this is just unacceptable. Arguably our biggest game in the season and his head is somewhere in Birmingham. Selfish arsehole.
