No. The "poppy thing" was big news.

It was very poorly handled by the club and it made the Sunday rags. Now did the press attention get to him? Perhaps. However even before the Everton game he was struggling for form after his brilliant breakout season.

It also had to be said that whilst the poppy thing upset a minority; to argue he was chased out of the club is silly. Off the top of my head I think I missed perhaps 4 games that season and with the exception of one home game, I'm struggling to remember him receiving much abuse.

It's really only since he left the club he has turned into a pantomime vilian and I dare say he enjoys playing up to that role - he certainly did at WBA a couple of seasons ago.
 
Lads a bell end, and loves terrorists.
The Player did not care about some of the Sunderland supporters. He was extremely young at Sunderland did not learn his trait quick enough at Sunderland so we cashed in to quickly due to attitude I am afraid...
 
Started well (for the lads) and fizzled out. Think he got sussed out that he was all left foot. Good finish with his right tonight there mind to be fair.
Cracking goal tonight

Even though the sheepshaggers made a bid of a boob from the keeper

But the build up play was superb

so basically we fucked up
 
One trick pony who got found out, the poppy nonsense was irrelevant to his ability’s as a player.
